Whether a veterinarian has determined that your dog has food sensitivities or that they require long-term support for their skin issues, your vet recommended Royal Canin Vegetarian for a reason. This highly palatable dry food formula contains select vegetable proteins to minimize the risk of triggering a reaction. Added linoleic acid, zinc, and biotin support healthy skin and a shiny coat. A specific nutrient blend promotes healthy digestion. And this diet helps reduce the urinary excretion of purines, a component of urate bladder stones. Ask your vet about feeding your adult dog Royal Canin Vegetarian wet dog food as a complement.

This therapeutic canine diet utilizes a plant-based nutritional strategy to manage protein sensitivities. It is a veterinary-authorized diet frequently considered for dogs presented with liver challenges or adverse food reactions to animal proteins.

This is a veterinary-authorized therapeutic diet formulated to meet AAFCO nutritional adequacy standards. It requires authorization from a licensed veterinarian and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.

At a nutritional level, it manages the protein workload by utilizing purified soy protein and specific amino acids. Commonly observed effects include improved skin comfort or reduced digestive distress. Because it avoids animal-derived ingredients, it may be considered in the context of managing specific sensitivities. Owners should monitor for observational signs of improvement and follow the feeding plan authorized by their veterinarian.

Do I need a prescription for vegetarian food?

Yes. While plant-based, this is a therapeutic diet and requires professional authorization from a licensed veterinarian. Mixlab verifies all legal requirements.

Why would a dog eat a vegetarian diet?

Veterinarians discuss vegetarian diets for dogs with sensitivities to animal proteins or specific liver challenges that require managing nitrogen levels.

Is this food complete and balanced?

Yes. This formula acts to meet all the nutritional requirements for adult dogs without using animal products.

Can I add chicken to this food?

Adding animal protein will defeat the purpose of the management approach. Discuss any additions with your veterinarian to ensure they are appropriate.

What monitoring does my dog need?

Your veterinarian will recommend periodic check-ups to monitor skin or liver health. This monitoring ensures the nutritional approach remains suitable.
