Royal Canin French Bulldog review

Name: Royal Canin French Bulldog
Brand: Royal Canin

39.3/100Average

WetAdult

A small 85g pouch shaped around one breed, and an Average result that comes from how little the label names. Every ingredient is written in category language, so nothing is tied to a species. Behind the wording the analysis is meaty for a wet food, with protein converting to 43.0% of dry matter.

Our view

Likely to suit

French Bulldog owners who want a recipe built around the breed
Dogs that do well with meat to the front: fat converts to 27.0% of dry matter
Portioning without guesswork, as each pouch is a small serving that counts itself
Dogs that drink less than they should, with moisture at 80.0%
Households already on the Royal Canin dry food who want the wet version of the routine

Worth watching

Meat and animal derivatives can stand for any land animal, so the pouch cannot anchor an elimination diet
Cereals and vegetable derivatives are umbrella terms too, and what sits behind them may change between batches
Feeding rows written for a low-activity dog, so a busy Frenchie needs more

The details

Dog fit

Listed for adult French Bulldogs. A whole day for a bigger, busier dog runs to a good many pouches, so check the pack's rows against your own dog's weight and activity.

The score, in context

Royal Canin French Bulldog 39.3

All one Average. Typical wet food: Excellent.

The analysis is strong for a wet food; what holds the result back is a recipe described in categories where most of the shelf names what it uses.

What's in it

Meat and animal derivativesA legal heading covering any warm-blooded land animal, top of the trade and bottom alike.
Derivatives of vegetable originNearly anything processed from a plant.
CerealsAny grain at all, so a suspected intolerance cannot be ruled out.
MineralsAn ingredient in their own right, which is why calcium reaches 1.65% of dry matter, the upper end for an adult.
Oils and fats

Vitamin D3 with zinc, iron, manganese, copper and iodine, each dosed to the milligram, plus clinoptilolite, a natural clay that holds the mix together.

Named ingredients

Meat and animal derivatives, derivatives of vegetable origin, cereals, minerals, oils and fats.
