Good question on the senior diet...I always wonder if they're really necessary for active seniors or not. I'll be interested to hear what others' experience has been. Linda might have a good opinion on this since she has dealt w/ many senior doggies through the rescue.
As far as being finicky, Marcel is my only one who is occasionally finicky...at one point, I believe it was bc of his teeth (now fixed), but at other times I can tell it's what I call "morning tummy", where his tummy is bothering him in the morning and is making squirty noises but clears up later in the day. So, that's my experience w/ being finicky. Could it be his teeth at all, ya think? Maybe the food was just a bit "off" like you're thinking.
Parmesan cheese can do wonders when they're feeling a bit off too, I've found.
