â 4.1 / 5
Like a good cuppa for old dogsâwarm, reliable, and full of the stuff that keeps âem going. Itâs got the meat, the oils, and all the right extras, just held back a touch by a few fillers and lower fuel for the livelier golden oldies.
The Quick Bite
Older dogs donât clock offâthey just need a feed that keeps up. This one delivers, with chicken meal, fish meal, and hydrolysed chicken serving up solid, senior-friendly protein. The fat blendâs a beauty tooâpoultry fat, fish oil, and emu oil keep joints moving, coats gleaming, and energy ticking along. Add in green-lipped mussel, glucosamine, probiotics, and antioxidant-rich extras, and youâve got a proper tune-up in every bowl. Faba beans and chickpeas sneak in, and the calories are a touch low for the still-speedy seniorsâbut overall, itâs a tidy, functional feed that gets the job done.
What It Gets Right
â Chicken, fish, and hydrolyzed chicken mealsâEasily digestible, high-quality protein sources.
â Premium fat blend (Poultry fat, fish oil, emu oil) for joint, coat, and energy support.
â Packed with functional extrasâGlucosamine, green-lipped mussel, L-carnitine, probiotics, and superfoods for joint, gut, and immune health.
â No mystery ingredientsâeverything is clearly named.
Where It Falls Short
â Field peas contribute some plant protein, slightly lowering digestibility.
â Moderate fillers (faba beans & chickpeas) could be replaced with more nutrient-dense ingredients.
â Lower calorie content (352 kcal/100g) might not be ideal for extra-active senior dogs.
