What age for Senior food? When I went to the feed store to pick up the usual week's supply of Chicken Soup, they were out of Adult til monday. With Giz's tender belly I didn't want to give him something new for the weekend so I bought some Senior til monday. He seems to gobble it up better than the Adult. Could someone maybe tell me the difference between the two and what age you start to feed Senior to your little one? Gizmo is going on 6 yrs and 11 pounds. Thanks for any input.:) |
I'll just call and ask the vet tomorrow. |
Our vet told us to start feeding them senior food at age 7. He said something about their caloric intake needs being less. Hope this helps :) Kasey & Annie |
It was very nice of you to reply, I appreciate the information. Thanks:) |
Mine are both under 2 years right now. So I don't know the answer to your question. But I would like to hear what your vet says when you ask. :) |
I agree...It's something about the caloric intake. I think Senior dogs don't need as many calories because they tend to be less active. That's the only real difference I know of that exists between adult and senior foods. Maybe you could just get an all life stages food. |
