DryAdultSenior

More's older-dog recipe reads like a gentle version of the adult bag. The effort goes into the printed extras: glucosamine, chondroitin sulphate and MSM at 1000 mg/kg each, and L-carnitine at 1200 mg/kg. It sits in our Good band with most of the adult dry shelf.

Our view

Likely to suit

Older dogs of almost any size, with a feeding table from 1kg to 60kg
Stiffening joints, given the joint trio at 1000 mg/kg apiece
Keeping an ageing dog trim: fat held to 14.7% of dry matter, plus L-carnitine
A quieter appetite. Chicken fat and chicken digest make the bowl worth crossing the room for
A small older dog, with a bag small enough to finish before it goes stale

Worth watching

Potato protein in the protein figure, which a dog uses less well than meat
Chicken meal at only 12%, lighter than the opening entry implies
Chicken throughout and salmon oil at 2%, so not for a dog avoiding either

The score, in context

More Senior 54.2

All one Good. Typical dry food: Good.

A senior recipe eases off the dense meat and lean carbohydrate our scoring rewards, and puts its effort into joint and carnitine dosing.
