From dachshunds to Yorkshire terriers, small breeds are generally defined as dog breeds that weigh 25 pounds or under as adults. Commonly classified as “toy”, “miniature” or “companion” dogs, they share some unique needs based on their biology, breed, and disposition.
We formulate our small breed dry foods and wet foods for their unique calorie requirements and lifestages. Small & Mini formulas contain vitamin C + E to help support a healthy immune system. Each with at least 8x more vitamin E than the required AAFCO minimum.
Small and toy dog breeds might be little, but they're all dog, with all the diverse traits you can find in larger breeds all wrapped up in a tiny package, along with some unique personalities and characteristics.

A small dog should have their own space. A crate, carrier, basket, or mat, where they can feel safe and calm.
