Later in life, dog's nutritional needs change. Senior Super5Mix addresses these changes. Because dogs are less active, this special formula contains high quality digestible protein, yet the protein levels have been reduced accordingly. In fact as compared to the basic Super5Mix, Senior contains 22% less protein, 33% less fat, 66% more fiber, increased Vitamin C and the presence of chelated minerals.
Other ingredients have been carefully chosen to address other signs of aging such as weaker immune and digestive systems and skin and coat dryness. Each dog's needs vary based on weight and size, so the packaging gives clear instructions on what's right for your dog. The one thing all dogs can agree on is good taste. Rest assured they kept that in mind when the Old Mother Hubbard experts created Wellness Senior.
Unlike most other dry foods that are rapidly extruded during the manufacturing process, Old Mother Hubbard slowly oven bakes its Wellness Super5Mix foods and treats to preserve and enrich the nutrients, and to enhance the aroma. Wellness does not contain any rendered animal fats, meat by-products, wheat, corn or white rice and also does not contain any artificial colors, flavors or preservatives of any kind.
