Royal Canin Mini Ageing 12+ is a wet food formulated for senior small-breed dogs over 12 years old, weighing up to 10kg. Served in gravy pouches, the soft texture suits older dogs whose teeth and appetite aren't what they were. Sold as a 12-pack of 85g pouches, it works as a complete diet or as a topper alongside kibble.

The recipe is built around the nutritional shifts that come with age. It supports renal health through adjusted phosphorus levels, includes EPA and DHA for joint mobility, and adds an antioxidant complex to help neutralise free radicals. The gravy format encourages hydration and appeals to fussier senior appetites, while the small chunk size is easy to chew for dogs with dental wear.

Owners of ageing small breeds choose this for the targeted senior formulation and the convenience of single-serve pouches — no leftovers to store, consistent portioning, and a texture older dogs will actually eat.
