Continuation of Product Description:
The German Shepherd belongs to a group of breeds who have a low concentration of Immunoglobulin A, which puts them at a high risk of infection.

Due to a sensitive digestion tract, a German Shepherd's diet must be rich in highly digestible ingredients in order to achieve optimal digestion and acceptance of nutrients.

Royal Canin Breed German Shepherd 24 Dry Dog Food was uniquely developed with the aforementioned characteristics in mind:

• Optimal Digestion (96% digestibility): Rice as a single source of plant carbohydrates, high-grade L.I.P. protein (>90%) and coconut oil all contribute to healthy digestive. Select, special fiber to limit the fermentation process in the digestive tract while maintaining the balance of darma flora.
• Strengthening of the Immune system and reduction of oxidative stress: an anti-oxidant complex contributes to the strengthening of the immune system and slows cell aging.
