I’ve been wondering why Royal Canin kibble doesn’t have the AAFCO statement on their food that says “Animal feeding tests using AAFCO procedures substantiates that NAME OF FOOD provides complete and balanced nutrition for X life stage”. They only have the statement that says it’s formulated to meet the nutritional levels established by AAFCO.
Specifically I’ve been looking at Royal Canin puppy for medium dogs, though most of their food don’t have it as well. For reference, Pro Plan and Hills Science puppy formulas have the animal feeding test statement.
I know it’s one of the WSAVA approved brands, so I thought they conduct feeding trials? Or perhaps I’m placing too much value on the statements?
