Natural Choice Large Breed Senior is unique because it provides superior nutrition and taste while being highly digestible and easy on the stomach. Using a special blend of poultry fat, soybean oil, and sunflower oil to provide high levels of linoleic acid (min 3.5%) and alpha-linolenic acid (min 0.3%), these omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids have been combined with other key vitamins and minerals to help provide the healthy skin and shiny coat that shows the love and care you give your dog.
Senior Support System™
As dogs age, they may begin to experience memory loss, short temper and diminished interest in food. Our Senior Support System™ helps address these changes with a unique fatty acid blend combined with Choline to provide nutrients for cognitive support, vision and behavioral changes.
Stay Healthy
Chelated minerals get into your senior dog's system more efficiently. By providing chelated zinc and other important minerals, the goal of Natural Choice Large Breed Senior is to help keep your senior dog in good health.
Unique, Easy to Chew Kibble
Senior dogs can have tender gums or loose or missing teeth so we created a unique shape for easy chewing.
Balanced Nutrition
Research shows that large breed dogs have a reduced requirement for calcium and phosphorus, so Natural Choice Large Breed Senior provides the ideal calcium-phosphorus levels. Large breeds need plenty of protein to support their large muscle mass but not excess fat which can cause weight gain. Natural Choice Large Breed Senior provides optimized fat and protein levels and a special blend of vitamins, tocopherols and tocotrienols to provide advanced antioxidants to help keep your dog's immune system healthy. Natural Choice Large Breed Senior uses natural ingredients with vitamins and minerals for optimal nutrition.
Healthy Joints
Good nutrition is important for strong hips and healthy joints. Research shows that Glucosamine and Chondroitin help maintain joint cartilage.
Guaranteed to Improve Skin and Coat
With high levels of linoleic acid and alpha-linolenic acid, combined with other key vitamins and minerals, we guarantee your dog will have healthy skin and shiny coat.
Natural Ingredients with Vitamins & Minerals
Using natural ingredients with vitamins and minerals, Natural Choice Large Breed Senior does not use chicken heads, feet or intestines which may be found in products that contain chicken by-product meal. Natural Choice does not contain ground corn, which is less digestible than the rice used in Natural Choice.
Great Taste Guaranteed*
We guarantee the great taste of Natural Choice Large Breed Senior so you can be sure your dog will eat enough to meet its nutritional requirements.
