On the age

8 years old is IAMS' cut-off for 'senior' in a small or medium breed — noticeably later than the large-breed senior threshold, because smaller dogs age more slowly. It's worth feeding on your own dog's condition rather than switching purely because a birthday has passed.

Why we chose it

Fat drops to 12% here against a typical adult recipe, which is the right direction for an older, less active dog rather than a marketing tweak. Naming the glucosamine percentage rather than just printing 'joint care' on the bag is the other reason we stock it.

— Matt, founder

Full description

A Great Dane can be considered a senior dog by five; a Jack Russell might not get there until well into double figures — which is why 'senior dog food' isn't one product so much as a category split by size as much as age.

This IAMS recipe is for small and medium breed dogs aged 8 and up, built on dried chicken and turkey at 28% (17% named as chicken) plus fresh chicken at 10%. Protein sits at 27%, fat at 12% — lower than the equivalent adult recipe, reflecting an older dog's reduced energy needs — and glucosamine is included at 0.04% for joint support. IAMS' DentalCare System uses the kibble's texture and mineral levels to help reduce tartar, and an antioxidant blend with vitamin E supports the immune system.

On the age. 8 years old is IAMS' cut-off for 'senior' in a small or medium breed — noticeably later than the large-breed senior threshold, because smaller dogs age more slowly. It's worth feeding on your own dog's condition rather than switching purely because a birthday has passed.

Who it's for: owners of a small or medium dog aged 8 or older, wanting glucosamine and a dental-focused kibble built into an everyday food rather than a supplement on the side.
