I was working for a contractor and a worker named Richard grabbed my grion passing by me .
I later found out that he grabbed another person and made many others uncomfortable
I told my employer and never got any more shifts with them . As a contractor we are to keep quiet to keep the contract
You need to know this behavior is unacceptable
And I am very upset by the whole thing, the power and control over all who enter
Disturbing

Either Royal Canin is suffering hard times or AI is unreliable or both

Gemini AI says this about RC’s puppy product welcome back.

“The contents of a Royal Canin Puppy Welcome Pack (or Welcome Box) vary slightly depending on the specific promotion or country (such as a breeder code redemption, vet referral, or loyalty scheme), but standard packs generally contain:
1. Nutrition & Treats
Free Bag Voucher / Claim Code: A voucher or voucher code redeemable for a full-sized bag of breed- or size-specific Royal Canin puppy food (e.g., Small, Medium, Large, or Breed Health Nutrition) shipped to your door or redeemed in-store. 
Royal Canin Educ Treats: A sachet of low-calorie training rewards designed for puppies during training sessions. 
Feeding Accessories: A branded stainless-steel food or water bowl.
2. Comfort & Everyday Essentials
Fleece Puppy Blanket: A cozy red fleece or plush blanket to help comfort your puppy during their transition home. 
Tote Bag or Document Folder: A folder or tote to hold your puppy’s veterinary records, microchip details, and registration paperwork. 
3. Guides & Savings
Puppy Care Guidebook: Informational booklet offering advice on puppy nutrition, growth stages, house-training, socialisation, and health care. 
Discount Vouchers: Money-off coupons (often up to 30%–40% off) for your next purchases of Royal Canin puppy food.

What I received was 3kg of puppy kibble and some poo bags. No wonder my breeder did not recommend use of RC products.

Very efficient service.

Our subscription is working well. We were notified when our monthly Royal Canin order was being despatched and could track it easilly. We were also able to re-direct it to a local collection point rather than having to wait in for the deivery. Very efficient service.

Very competitively priced

Fast delivery, free if you are on a regular delivery and I find buying direct it’s actually cheaper, the only downside is when I want to skip a month the website shows an error message so that’s something that needs tweaking 👍

Royal Canin Fussy for Cats

I had two cats become ill with severe Gastro issues within days of starting a new food they just released call Fussy. Thousands of dollars spent on 2 separate ER Vet Visits. I emailed the company with all the info, the lot number, receipt vet reports showing the Vets felt it was the food that made them ill and they stated the did all their research and therefore feel they do not need to reimburse anything to help with the bills due their food making them ill. Do not buy this food!

A few years ago my Vet put my dog on a RC oral care diet. Quite expensive.
After about a year, no improvement.
Contacted RC via email stating my concern.
The person who received my email drafted an email to a fellow worker for their input back to me but accidentally replied direct to me instead.
The wording of that email stated …….
“Hi xxxx, I forwarded you this email from this guy about his dogs teeth. Can you make up some story and get him off our back.”
I never did receive an answer to my question from RC.
I researched the product online and saw that it was only on vet prescription, of which I had, and after 12 months saw in RC notes online that the product should not be a permanent use for dogs and only used for three months. I told my vet about the three months that was stated online and her comment was “I didn’t know that”
I have never bought a RC product since due to the email accidentally sent back to me and the vets lack of product knowledge.

Thank you for taking the time to share this detailed feedback regarding your past experience with our product and our customer support team. Hearing about your interaction with our representative and the lack of proper follow-up is deeply concerning to us. We hold our communication standards to a very high level, and receiving a message like the one described is entirely unacceptable and does not reflect our values or how we value pet owners who trust us with their animals' health. We also recognize how frustrating it was to discover conflicting guidance regarding the recommended duration of use for that specific diet, especially after relying on professional advice for your dog's care. We take full responsibility for the breakdown in communication and the distress this situation caused you and your pet. To ensure this does not happen again, we are reviewing our internal staff training procedures, emphasizing professional communication standards, and re-evaluating how clear product usage guidelines are communicated to both customers and veterinary professionals. Your experience highlights critical areas where our processes failed, and we are committed to making the necessary internal changes to uphold the quality and integrity expected of us.
