Dog food Royal Canin Hypoallergenic Small 1 kg — Adult, Poultry & Rice, for Mini and X‑Small breeds

Royal Canin Hypoallergenic Small 1 kg is a specially formulated dry food for adult Mini and X‑Small breed dogs under 10 kg that experience adverse food reactions, food allergy or food intolerance. The recipe uses hydrolysed soya protein isolate to reduce allergenicity while providing high digestibility. The formula supports intestinal and dermatological health and can be used during food elimination trials or as a clinical diet for conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI), chronic diarrhoea and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). The kibble size and nutrient balance are adapted to the needs of small breed adults.

Advantages

The diet contains hydrolysed soya protein isolate made of low molecular weight peptides that minimise the risk of food reactions and support efficient digestion. A low relative supersaturation (Low RSS) urinary profile helps create an undersaturated environment in the urine, reducing the risk of struvite and calcium oxalate crystal formation. A targeted skin barrier complex reduces transepidermal water loss to support skin integrity. Pentasodium triphosphate contributes to dental hygiene by binding salivary calcium and helping limit tartar build-up. Overall, the formulation is balanced to address both dermatological and gastrointestinal signs related to adverse food reactions.

Suitable for

• Adult Mini and X‑Small breed dogs under 10 kg with suspected or diagnosed adverse food reactions
• Dogs requiring a food elimination trial for suspected food allergy or intolerance
• Dogs with dermatological signs related to food reactions
• Dogs with gastrointestinal conditions such as IBD, EPI, chronic diarrhoea or SIBO

Key specifications

How to use

Introduce Royal Canin Hypoallergenic Small gradually over several days by mixing increasing amounts of the new food with the previous diet until a full change is achieved. Feed according to the dog’s current body weight, activity level and veterinary guidance; portion sizes should be adjusted to maintain ideal body condition. For dogs with diagnosed adverse food reactions, follow a strict single-source hydrolysed diet during the elimination trial period as advised by a veterinarian. Always provide fresh water and monitor clinical signs; consult your veterinarian if symptoms persist or worsen.

Usage recommendations

Use this diet under veterinary supervision for diagnosis and management of adverse food reactions and related gastrointestinal or dermatological conditions. Maintain the diet strictly for the recommended trial period and avoid feeding additional treats or foods that could interfere with diagnostic or therapeutic outcomes.
