Royal Canin Relax Care Medium Dry Dog Food

Medium dogs often form deep bonds with their families and thrive on routine. When that routine is disrupted — whether by a house move, a new baby, changed work schedules, or even furniture rearrangement — the resulting stress can manifest as destructive behaviour, digestive upsets, excessive vocalisation, or withdrawal. These are not behavioural problems; they are stress responses.

Royal Canin Relax Care Medium provides daily nutritional support through a specific calming nutrient complex that has been demonstrated to help dogs adapt to intense and changing environments. The formula works cumulatively through consistent feeding, building your dog's nutritional resilience to stress rather than treating individual episodes.

This is a complete, balanced daily diet — not a supplement or treat. Your medium dog receives all essential nutrition alongside the targeted stress support. For periods of heightened stress (fireworks season, travel, boarding), pairing with Royal Canin Relax Care Wet Food (85 g pouches) provides enhanced support and a comforting mealtime routine.

• Proven Calming Complex: Specific nutrients demonstrated to help medium dogs feel relaxed and better adapt to intense or changing environments.

How does stress affect medium dogs differently?

Stressed medium dogs often show more outward behaviours than small dogs, including destructive chewing, excessive barking, restless pacing, and digestive upsets such as soft stools. Some become clingy while others withdraw. Relax Care provides nutritional support that helps regulate the underlying stress response.

We’re moving house soon. Should I start this food now?

Yes, ideally start feeding Relax Care 2–4 weeks before a known stressful event so the nutritional support can build.

• If the change has not happened yet, start 2–4 weeks in advance.
• If the change has already happened, begin feeding immediately.
• You should notice improvements over the following weeks.

Can I combine this with other calming products?

Yes, Relax Care can be used alongside other calming approaches.

• Pheromone diffusers
• Anxiety wraps
• Behavioural training
• Calming medications, with veterinary advice

Is this food suitable for long-term daily feeding?

Yes, Relax Care is a complete, balanced diet designed for ongoing daily feeding. Continuous nutritional support is more effective than intermittent use for dogs with ongoing stress sensitivity.
