General
Maintaining healthy joint cartilage and optimal digestive function are top concerns for maturing large breed dogs. A diet with glucosamine hydrochloride and chondroitin sulfate, Vitamin E, Vitamin C and an optimal amino-acid profile will help maintain large breed mature dogs' health and vitality. It is important that their diet be fortified with fructo-oligosaccharides (chicory extracts) to help maintain optimal digestive function resulting in small, firm stools.
Fights Plaque and Tartar - Larger kibbles produce a brushing effect when the dog eats. And sodium tripolyphosphate helps to prevent calcium (a key element of tartar) from attaching to the teeth, contributing to better oral hygiene for your aging large breed dog.
Enhanced Digestibilty - As your dog ages and becomes less active, digestive problems can develop as the result of a slower intestinal tract. Prebiotics (fructo-oligosaccharides), MOS (mannan-oligosaccharides), and sodium silico aluminate promote optimal digestion with less gas and diarrhea.
Healthy Joints - As your large breed dog becomes older, its joints become more fragile. The addition of Omega 3 fatty acids, glucosamine (780 mg/kg) and chondroitin (220 mg/kg) help protect the joints.
- For large breed mature dogs over 5 years of age.
