White Fish
Low-fat white fish kibble is one of the best senior dog food recipes to give older dogs because it is a good source of protein, vitamins, fatty acids, and is also very easy to digest. We have selected specific white fish that is ideal for weight control and contains vitamins such as B6, B12 and Niacin, which help to build new red blood cells, maintain healthy nerve cells, and convert food into energy. Your older dog also needs specific quantities of Omega 3 fatty acids to help with inflammation in skin and joints, and in the support and development of brain function, the central nervous tissue and vision. The white fish we have chosen contains exactly what your senior dog needs.
Low Fat and with L-Carnitine - Senior Weight Control Dog Food
This senior dog kibble helps weight control because it contains an average of 15% less fat than your standard dog food recipe. Senior dog kibble should ideally be lower in fat, simply because older dogs are not as active as when they were younger. Also included is L-carnitine to help with weight control. L-carnitine is an amino acid that dogs use to transform fat into energy. It also helps to maintain lean muscle mass by positively affecting activity intensity, body composition, muscle recovery, and oxidative capacity. If your older dog is overweight and you follow our feeding guidelines, with regular activity, this recipe can also help as a weight loss dog food for older dogs. See our testimonials for this recipe!
Glucosamine and Chondroitin - Senior Dog Food for Joints
Hip and joint care for senior dogs is essential. The best dog food for senior dogs with arthritis should contain glucosamine and chondroitin. The glucosamine in our dog food is natural and known to help in treating arthritis, alleviate pain, and joint wear in dogs. It can also help with spinal injury and recovery from joint surgery. Chondroitin is a structural component of cartilage and gives cartilage elasticity known to also help with aches and pains. Together they have a synergistic effect that help each other to produce the building blocks for cartilage. But to be the most beneficial, they must be in the correct ratio as formulated in this recipe.
Natural MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane)
MSM is a natural and powerful anti-inflammatory compound produced by specific plants. MSM for dogs has many incredible benefits. Firstly it is known to help improve the uptake of glucosamine and chondroitin and then cement a good firm structure around joints, acting like a natural analgesic, ideal for healing joints! MSM can also help allergic responses - perfect for sensitive senior dogs!
Ideal For Older Dogs with a Sensitive Stomach and Digestive Issues
This recipe is one of our lightest and best soft dry senior dog food recipes. These biscuits are aerated, providing an easy crunch and soft chew, ideal for very delicate teeth. This recipe is low-fat, made with easy to digest fish. There is also whole grain brown and white rice. Rice is a good source of energy, full of minerals and vitamins that is easily digestible, low in fat, and contains a good measure of fibre to help bowel movements. Additionally, we've added a natural extract of yucca to help with waste odour control. Yucca reduces the smell by up to 26%.
Brewers Yeast for Anti-Anxiety and Other General Health Benefits

We tried lots of different brands before finding Nutrix 15 September 2022 | Simon
Great food for my two Labradors - they lost weight when we changed to it almost 2 years ago and now weight is maintained at a healthy level - they just can't wait for their dinner now (they used to be really fussy and we tried lots of different brands before finding Nutrix!).

Would not give my dog anything else 21 December 2021 | Gemma
Would not give my dog anything else. He is 11 and looks amazing. My smaller dog also has it. Both their coats are amazing, teeth, weight! I couldn't recommend your product more to all dog owners and I do regularly.
