Need small kibble recommendation I have a 4# furbaby (almost 2 years old) and need some food recommendations. He was on Purina Pro Plan for toy dogs. It is a very tiny sized kibble. I have tried Royal Canin and the pieces were too big. When mixed with the Purina, he picked out the larger RC pieces and left a mess on the floor. I am now trying Fromm and like that it is 4 star. Fromm is smaller than RC but it is still larger than the Purina. Is there another high quality food that is has very small kibble? I do prefer dry over wet because of teeth health. He doesn't seem to be very picky except for size. Even his treats have to be tiny. :):):) |
Royal Canin has a formula for toy/xtra small breeds.....cant imagine the kibble is too large for a 4# pup! It is like pellet sized! I am sure you did not have the right formula for your pup! |
Wellness core, grain free for small breeds... Tiny kibble that my boys love. |
YorkieMom1 - I bought the Royal Canin Adult Yorkshire Terrier and the bag says the kibble is 1 cm in size. The Purina pro plan is less than half that big. I'll check out the Wellness core. Thanks |

YorkieMom1 - I didn't know there was a xtra small/toy version of RC. I don't think my store carries it. I'll have to look. |
I use health extension little bites, it's very tiny and the only dry food Lola will eat. |
Nutra source has small kibble. My Winnie like it. But I feed Fromms its larger and she has no problems eating it. She just turned 3lbs but was eating it when she was under 2lbs. Unless there a reason you need it really small?? |
He won't eat anything too large. If I give him a piece of cheese - which he loves - if it is too big, he won't take it. If he gets a small biscuit, instead of eating it he will take it and hide it. He doesn't seem to be picky with tastes, just size. |
My pups love the Hill's Science Diet Ideal Balance for small breeds. Very, very tiny kibble! :) |
I like Natures Logic kibble - love their nutrition philosophy...and it's very small kibble. Btw, hard kibble doesn't do anything for "teeth health", in the same way that hard food for humans doesn't do anything for helping our teeth. |
I feed Now Fresh Grain Free Small Breed and the kibble is pretty small and x shaped. |
Royal Canin It is the best food I have had! If you go to petsmart you can find the breed specific one for Yorkie adults and puppies!! It is made with all their needs in mind and mine love it!!! :) |
Fromm Grain-Free foods are very tiny. NOW! Small Breed is also tiny (like cat food). |
I thought soft food was worse for teeth and tartar buildup. That is why i wanted to use dry. |

I feed NutriSource Grain Free Seafood Select and the kibble is pretty tiny . Pic of kibble size compared to a Pea .. Attachment 405197 |
The smallest kibble I have found is Now Fresh small breed. My 4 pound Biewer has no trouble at all eating it. |
My small Biewers eat Nutra Ultimate small breed puppy. |
I am feeding Wellness Core Small Breed. It has a small kibble Mickey loves. He is picky about the size of his food. Fromm Grain Free line is small too. That is also in our rotation. |
1 Attachment(s) The Fromm is small but it is still larger than the Purina Pro. The Purina is tiny. I think I will check out the Nutri Source as ironmike86 said it is half the size of the Fromm. Here is the Fromm (on the left) and the Purina Pro comparison. |
