" The Rottweiler breed is good-natured and obedient, with a real appetite for physical activity. Its powerful body and unbeatable muscles are two of its most known traits. Because each breed is unique, it's important that your Rottweiler's diet contains nutrients that will help to support optimal health. Suitable for Rottweilers aged 18 months old and over, ROYAL CANIN® Rottweiler Adult is specially formulated with all the nutritional needs of your adult dog in mind. Taking into account the effects of ageing is important from the onset of adulthood, particularly in large breed dogs like yours. Imperatively, it is essential to take good care of your Rottweiler's cardiac health. That's why ROYAL CANIN® Rottweiler Adult contains specific nutrients - such as taurine, EPA, and DHA - that help to support healthy cardiac function. Naturally athletic, the Rottweiler's strong, muscular body requires an adapted level of protein. Nevertheless, without exercise, the Rottweiler can easily exceed its ideal weight. So, exercise and nutrition are both vital to your Rottweiler's overall health. ROYAL CANIN® Rottweiler Adult contributes to the maintenance of optimal muscle mass and an ideal bodyweight, thanks to an adapted protein content and the inclusion of L-Carnitine. This diet - rationed appropriately to regulate proper food intake - should be fed in conjunction with an effective exercise routine. Whether working or just on a walk with its owner, the Rottweiler is always active and enthusiastic, which means it requires nutrients that support the health of its joints and bones. This is the reason ROYAL CANIN® Rottweiler Adult has been enriched with EPA and DHA - these omega-3 fatty acids help to support your dog's healthy bones and joints. The exclusive kibble in ROYAL CANIN® Rottweiler Adult is specially designed to make it easier for your dog to pick up, it also encourages it to chew more thoroughly to help increase the feeling of fullness and maintain an ideal weight. At ROYAL CANIN® we're committed to providing nutritional solutions to your pet's needs. All of our products undergo an extensive quality control process in order to guarantee the optimum quality of food as well as catering to your dog's specific dietary requirements and lifestyle. This means that when your dog eats ROYAL CANIN® Rottweiler Adult, it's getting a complete and balanced diet. "

Private label (or white label) pet foods are pre-formulated recipes that companies can order from certain factories, add their own label or packaging and retail to the public as their own brand. They are therefore available from numerous suppliers. Click here for more info.

This is the ingredients list as printed on the packaging or manufacturer's website.
Think of the 'mixing bowl' composition like a recipe - all the ingredients you would need to put in a 'mixing bowl' in order to make the food.
Ingredients have to be listed in descending order of their weight so the higher it appears, the more there is.
Highlighted ingredients
Ingredients that we believe to be controversial or inferior are highlighted in yellow with particularly low grade, highly contentious or excessively vague ingredients in red.
As fed composition
While the 'mixing bowl' composition is useful for knowing what went into the food, it doesn't always reflect what your dog is actually eating. This is because the processes that turn the ingredients into the finished pet food can significantly alter the relative weights of the ingredients.
For this reason we've calculated the approximate 'as fed' percentages for the main ingredient categories in the finished product.
Please note that these figures are very approximate. They are estimates based on the information provided by the manufacturer in the ingredients list so the clearer the terminology and the more percentages they provide, the more accurate our estimates will be. Wherever information is lacking, we always assume the worst.
Ingredient categories
◉ Meat ingredients: includes all meat and fish ingredients except isolated fats/oils.
◉Added oils and fats: includes all isolated oil and fat ingredients.
◉ Carb-rich ingredients: includes all ingredients derived from grains, pseudo-grains, potatoes and other starchy root vegetables, sweet potato and legumes (except whole peas which are categorised under fruit and veg) except for isolated protein and extracted oils. Also includes fibre supplements.
◉ Fruit and veg: includes all whole vegetables and fruits.
◉ Other: all other ingredients. Mostly made up by nutritional supplements and additives.
The dry matter level of a nutrient is the percentage there would be in the food if all of the water was removed.
With water taken out of the equation, these figures allow the nutrient levels of foods of different types (like wet and dry) to be compared on an even playing field.

34 out of 100 - Poor
Our unique product ratings are calculated based on a number of characteristics including the quality and quantity of the stated ingredients, certain nutritional and technological additives and the processing methods used to create the food. They are designed to indicate how beneficial we think a food is likely to be for the majority of dogs when fed on a daily basis for an extended period. Click here for more information
Country of origin:
A technological additive is any substance added to a pet food "for a technological purpose and which favourably affects the characteristics of feed".
While the primary effects of technoloical additives are certainly 'favourable' (increased shelf life in the case of preservatives & antioxidants, better food texture and consistency in the case of gelling agents and thickeners etc.) some have been linked to health problems in pets and should be treated with caution.
Unfortunately, many technological additives do not have to be declared by the manufacturer so just because they do not appear on the label does not necessarily mean they are not in the food. If in doubt, ask the manufacturer directly exactly what technological additives their foods contain.
