Royal Canin Yorkshire Terrier Adult 8+ Dry Dog Food - 1.5kg By Royal Canin
Yorkshire Terriers – or ‘Yorkies’ – are naturally even-tempered, active and intelligent dogs – full of energy and gusto. Because each breed has its own specific requirements, ROYAL CANIN®’s Breed Health Nutrition range caters to the dietary needs of dogs of different breeds to support optimal health. Suitable for Yorkshire Terriers over 8 years old, ROYAL CANIN® Yorkshire Terrier Adult 8+ is specially formulated with all the nutritional needs of your adult dog in mind. The Yorkshire Terrier’s prominent coat is regarded as its best known feature. It is exceptionally fine and long – it also never stops growing. The Yorkie’s attractive coiffure does not moult and requires special nutrients to keep it soft and silky. ROYAL CANIN® Yorkshire Terrier Adult 8+ contributes to maintaining the health of your Yorkie’s coat through an adapted content enriched by essential omega-3 fatty acids (EPA & DHA), omega-6 fatty acids, borage oil, and biotin. Yorkshire Terriers are also known for their long life span. They can live for over 15 years on average, meaning they are exposed to the effects of ageing in the last third of their life. This is why ROYAL CANIN® Yorkshire Terrier Adult 8+ contains an exclusive combination of antioxidants to help maintain cellular health and is formulated with an appropriate phosphorus content to care for kidney health of Yorkshire Terriers as they mature. ROYAL CANIN® Yorkshire Terrier Adult 8+ also helps support the Yorkshire Terriers’s sensitive digestive system. It contains highly digestible (L.I.P.) proteins and a selection of specific fibres, including prebiotics to help promote a balanced intestinal flora, maintain a healthy digestive system and help promote optimal stool quality. 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® Yorkshire Terrier Adult 8+, it’s getting a complete and balanced diet.

Designed for the breed and loved by our dog
by Telboyslim
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Have always struggled to find a different dry food for our dog and end up going back to the same one. But Royal Canin has been a definite winner. She really seems to enjoy it, and for an older dog with less teeth, its a good size for her to eat. We usually find bits of other bigger brands spread around where she's struggled, but not with this. She tucked in as soon as it was put down. It lasts well and stays fresh in the resealable bag. Seems to be a good range of ingredients. Although more expensive, it lasts well. Will definitely be buying more, highly recommend for your dog to try.
Great product
by Andrena Harrison
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] this dog food was in a slightly smaller packet than the usual one I buy so I found that we got through it a lot quicker. The package itself is easy to open and I really like the design. The food doesn’t have an overpowering scent and the kibbles are quite small. My dog absolutely loved it, and I didn’t have to use any sauce or meat to encourage them to eat it. It was easy on the stomach and we didn’t have any runny motions or that stinky dog wind that can happen very often!! It’s definitely something I would purchase in the future
Happy Jack Russell
by Stephanie
At first I found my dog absolutely loved this food! He was happy eating it every time! He still is happy but I have noticed it makes him very thirsty and at first he put on a bit of weight since starting to eat it, it could be we were still working out portion sizes but something to keep in mind!
Perfect for your yorkies
by Emma & Pebbles
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] My dog is a Yorkshire and named Pebbles, and she is the fussiest eater ever, but she absolutely loved the Royal Canin Yorkshire Terrier 8+ senior dry dog biscuits. She was so excited the second I put them down for her. The biscuits are a perfect size for a small dog breed and easy for them to eat. They were perfect and enjoyable by themselves, mixed with a bit of wet food, or, if your doggo likes them wet, with a bit of water to make them slightly softer for any small breeds that have teeth removed due to them being a little older dogs. I noticed my Pebbles' digestive system improved and her coat became shinier after having these biscuits for a couple of weeks. The smell of the biscuits is a strong smell, and I've always been told that the stronger the scent, the better the food. The packaging that the biscuits are in is brilliant because it is a resealable bag that keeps the biscuits nice and fresh.
Great breed specific dog food
by Mark S -
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] My dog has loved this senior hydratable dry dog food. I like the fact that it is breed-specific for my Yorkie. The fact that it is dry dog food that is rehydratable means that the kibble is not hard for my dog to eat, given her age. There is a decent amount of kibble in this big bag. My dog has eaten this very well with no issues.

Dogs absolutely loves it
by Nedean Betteridge -
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Seems high price for what seems an ordinary dog food saying that my dog absolutely loves this. As soon as it’s put down he’s munching away. Not a strong scent.
Dog loved it
by Jack -
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Worked wonders on my dogs dental health and coat. Easy to store and easy to reseal. Used a cup to measure portions so was easy to open bag wide. Would buy this brand again
Excellent
by Amanda -
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Both dogs absolutely loved this food. They had no upset stomach or digestion issues. Seemed to enjoy the texture and taste. I was impressed with the packaging and found it easy to re-seal so it didn’t go soft or stale.
Great food for a fussy doggo!
by Carrie -
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] My dog absolutely loves this food! He can be fussy and we’ve never tried Royal Canin food before and it’s been a huge hit, he even prefers to eat it before having his wet food! The size of each pellet of food is great as they’re quite small and he’s a small dog so can struggle with bigger pellets. It’s great that it comes in a resealable bag to keep it fresh and I love the ingredients the food has. All in all 5 ⭐️ and a very happy little doggo!
Great
by Vida -
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] My dog absolutely adores this food. Small grains, great for little Yorkies. Smells nice, great ingredients. Really helped with my dog’s digestion. Easy to store and keep dry, as the bag has a zip.
My Luna loves it❤️

Woofing good
by Ellie -
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] My dog seems to really enjoy this. Biscuits are small in size which is good for her breed. Unlike other brands it doesn't have an overpowering smell. Good size pack which lasted a reasonable time.
Perfect biscuits
by Em -
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Both of my Jack Russells immediately tucked into this food it was a big hit with them both. Which is great because they're extremely fussy but these biscuits are small Which is great for my boys. Not too hard either. They are tailor-made especially for Jack Russells. Gives details on how much to feed them. Nutrition for dental health, healthy skin and coat. And muscle vitality. Both seemed to finish the whole bowl every time I've given it to them, gentle in their tummies hasn't caused any upset tums Overall would recommend feels like a high quality product
Fantastic
by Laura -
My dog absolutely loved this food. She demolished the bowl full pretty quick. I would highly recommend this and will certainly be purchasing it again. Thank you so much for making my dog very happy
Great food
by Trusn -
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] My adult Yorkshire Terrier loves this kibble. It’s a great size and has a softer texture, which makes it much easier for her to eat, as she is a small dog. The packaging is great, as it is resealable and keeps the food fresh. I also like that you can mix the kibble with water. I like that it is tailored specifically to her breed. My dog’s coat has been shiny and thick, and she has responded well to the new food, which hasn’t caused her any digestive upset, which is usually the case when trying new food.
My boy likes it
by Vicki -
I received this product in exchange for my honest review. My dog tends to be quite picky with what brown rocks we serve to him, especially if it’s the summer. He did the usual sniff test and look to make sure it’s nothing suspicious, and then dove in. We provided a small handful first to make sure it didn’t go to waste, and he ate it slowly, but he ate all of it! Usually, he would leave a good 10 kibble chunks left of his usual food, so it was great to see him finish a whole portion!!! We tried a taste test between this and his usual food, and he seemed to favour this, which is great. I definitely will have to search for this on offer, as the price per kilo is a lot more than the usual food, and so far, I’m not sure just how well the benefits will pay off, but he seems to like it.
Perfect food for our little girl!
by Monika -
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Perfect food for our little girl! She used to get royal canine when she was little and she loves it now when she is a big girl. She is now 3 years old, Jack Russell, broken coat! She has been a little lethargic lately due to the heat but since she has been eating her new food she has been having more energy and she seems more playful. Her coat looks lovely as well. She can be fussy sometimes and prefer waiting to see if we give her human food but with this she just licks the bowl inside out as soon as we give it to her. Definitely recommend!
Great quality breed specific kibble
by Emma H -
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] It was the first time I tried my dog on this brand and I'm really impressed, will definitely be buying this one going forward. The packaging is good and sturdy for storing and keeps the kibble fresh. The breed specific ingredients are a great idea to ensure your dog is getting everything they need. The ingredients list is good with a high meat content and not full of fillers. I have been using the recommended quantity for my dogs weight for 2 weeks and it satisfies his appetite well. My dog gets excited when this is put down for him and the kibble is the perfect size for him, I even used it for taking out on walks as training treats as well and he recalls for it, the smell of it is also appealing it smells like nice chicken stock rather than a dog food.
She loves it
by Hayley -
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I have a very fussy Yorkshire terrier and happy to say she loves this. Being a bit older she can find it hard to find a food she enjoys. This food is a great size, easily digestible. She approves
Empty Bowls!
by Claire -
I received this product in exchange for my honest review. My dog loved the Royal Canin Jack Russell dry dog food. He is a Miniature Jack Russell with a big appetite. I love the fact this food is tailored to his specific breed and his individual dietary requirements. Full of the right nutrients to help keep him healthy. It had quite a meaty smell and the pellets were just the right size for him to chew. First time we tried it, he woofed the lot and was asking for more. Good size bag, that will last approx 2/3 weeks. Sturdy packaging, and can be resealed once opened. Definitely a hit and would recommend.
Great food
by Janet -
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This dry dog food is great. The sizing is perfect for older dogs and it’s easy to control portion sizes. My dog loves the taste and it’s made a great addition to his daily intake. The colour is appealing and it’s great for dogs you have allergies. I think it’s made a difference to my dogs coat. Would highly recommend
Great for small fussy eaters :)
by Tiff -
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] It can be so hard to find dry food for tiny dogs because they can be notoriously fussy, but my dogs absolutely love this Royal Canin 8+ senior food! The kibble is a brilliant, tiny size for small mouths, and the dry crunch is so much better for their teeth. Since switching, their coats and skin look really healthy too. The packaging has a great, clear feeding guide on the back, and the bag seems to last a surprisingly long time. A fantastic option for older, smaller pups!
Excellent food for small dogs
by Cheryl -
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] My two Jack Russell cross pups absolutely loved this food! From the moment I pulled out the bag they were sniffing around it and scratching to try it. Due to the weather they haven't been as interested in food recently but the moment this was in the bowls it was being gulped down! The biscuits are a perfect size for small dogs and as my two are a bit older now they found it easy to eat despite some teeth issues too. I really like the bag and particularly how easy to open and how it stays fresh. Both dogs enjoyed the food and preferred it over other options.
One very happy dog
by Kate -
I received this product in exchange for my honest review. My 10 year old girl loves this food. No unpleasant smell, and it’s small bite which is perfect for her as she is missing some teeth now! She’s only been eating this for the last week, but there are no unpleasant side effects as of yet and she seems very happy and I have noticed a difference in her coat.
