Excellence Senior Kibble

Comprehensive Nutrition: The Benefits of Our Excellence Senior Dog Diets

When it comes to feeding older dogs, getting the balance right is everything. As our faithful companions reach their golden years (7+ years), their bodies change—their metabolisms slow down, and their joints endure more wear and tear. To support healthy ageing and vitality, we have crafted our Excellence Complete Diets. These premium, grain-free formulas are made with natural ingredients and contain absolutely no artificial colours, flavours, or preservatives.

The FreshTrusion Difference: Unlocking Raw Nutritional Value

At the heart of our Excellence Complete Diets is the rather clever FreshTrusion process. We gently extract the beneficial oils from our high-quality meat and fish, cooking the ingredients at a low heat before carefully adding those nutrient-rich oils back in. This revolutionary approach means every single bite retains the exact same nutritional value as fresh, raw ingredients. It is particularly brilliant for preserving essential Omega-3 fatty acids, like EPA and DHA, which play a crucial role in supporting healthy skin, glossy coats, joint mobility, and sharp brain function. By protecting this delicate balance of nutrients, we ensure our kibble delivers a complete, balanced meal that truly supports an older dog's vitality.

Tailored Proteins for Ageing Dogs

Because every dog is unique, we offer two specially formulated recipes to suit their specific needs, whether they require a leaner diet for weight management or a gentle protein for a sensitive stomach.

Excellence Senior Dog Food – 50% Trout & Salmon For dogs with delicate digestions, our hypoallergenic Trout and Salmon recipe is a fantastic choice. It contains 50% total fish content, providing an easily digestible protein source that is exceptionally gentle on senior stomachs. The rich blend of freshly prepared fish delivers an abundance of Omega-3, which works wonders for maintaining joint mobility and keeping their skin and coat in beautiful condition.

Excellence Senior Dog Kibble – 50% Turkey If your older dog requires a leaner diet, perhaps due to reduced mobility or a need for weight management, our Turkey recipe is ideal. This formula boasts 50% total turkey content, including 27% freshly prepared turkey for exceptional lean protein quality. Alongside the high-quality meat, we have enhanced this recipe with cranberry, which naturally supports urinary tract health—a common and important consideration in a dog's later years.

Prioritising Mobility and Digestive Health

Keeping older dogs moving comfortably is always a top priority. This is why both of our senior recipes are enhanced with a robust blend of glucosamine and chondroitin. Glucosamine acts as a fundamental building block for repairing cartilage, whilst chondroitin helps to draw fluid into the connective tissues, acting as a natural shock absorber. Together, they provide a consistent, preventative approach to joint health and mobility.

It’s so important, choosing the right carbohydrates for senior digestion. Both our Turkey and our Trout & Salmon recipes swap out high-glycaemic grains for sweet potato. Sweet potato is a fantastic source of complex carbohydrates, providing sustained energy without the blood sugar spikes, alongside dietary fibre to keep their digestion regular and comfortable.

Implementing Our Diets into Your Daily Routine

Transitioning to a new, specialised diet always requires a gentle touch to keep the digestive system happy. We recommend introducing our Excellence Senior kibble gradually over a week or so, slowly increasing the amount of the new food whilst reducing the old.
