They are your best friend, and you want what\u2019s best for them. But while many people look to make their dog feel love by giving them attention or buying them toys, far too often, those same people buy cheap dog food packed with unhealthy fillers and additives.<\/p>\n<p>The fact is, dogs have a wide array of health and nutritional needs that many typical dog food brands simply fail to meet. That is particularly true for older dogs. As your dog ages, what they need to remain healthy becomes more extensive and complex.<\/p>\n<p>Thankfully, for just a few dollars more, there is a multitude of much healthier options that can help keep your best friend healthy and active. But that doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s an easy choice. There are countless options out there that market themselves as healthy dog food for senior small breeds. They all have their strengths and weaknesses, and some are certainly better than others.<\/p>\n<p>Sorting through all these varieties can undoubtedly be a challenge. How do you know which is the best senior dog food for small breeds for you? No need to worry, we\u2019ve done the work for you. Read on, and we\u2019ve ranked the five best senior dog foods for small breeds.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-ks4bt8uj-eced76dffec194b8d62e7f957828a53a '  ><div class='avia_textblock' ><p><strong>Other resources that you may be interested in:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pawsinsider.com\/best-canned-dog-food-senior-dogs\/\" data-lasso-id=\"13075\">Best Canned Dog Food for Senior Dogs<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pawsinsider.com\/best-harness-french-bulldog\/\" data-lasso-id=\"13076\">The Best Harness for a French Bulldog: Everything You Need To Know<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pawsinsider.com\/english-bulldog-pitbull-mix\/\" data-lasso-id=\"13077\">English Bulldog Pitbull Mix: The Ultimate Guide<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-20w4sh-e81136d58c145bc596f0e36da69ede64 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-9  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_full  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-1hbkyz5-76eeec8472513acf820f2ea90b72a48a\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-1hbkyz5-76eeec8472513acf820f2ea90b72a48a{\npadding-bottom:0;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-1hbkyz5-76eeec8472513acf820f2ea90b72a48a .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-1hbkyz5-76eeec8472513acf820f2ea90b72a48a .av-subheading{\nfont-size:14px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-1hbkyz5-76eeec8472513acf820f2ea90b72a48a av-special-heading-h2 blockquote modern-quote  avia-builder-el-10  el_before_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-first '><h2 class='av-special-heading-tag'  >Best Senior Dog Food for Small Breeds<\/h2><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-k9llj131-64-46db6c490e8605083bdfcc9d043f46e1 '  ><div class='avia_textblock' ><p>Now that you know what to look for let\u2019s take a look at our five favorite senior dog foods for small breeds.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div><\/p>\n<div  class='flex_column av-9dcvpd-df1411d3ba21a35bd89e55b1845a3c51 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-12  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_full  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-llf2li60-691d7034aa105ab19f6e62baa9acacab '  ><div class='avia_textblock' ><div id=\"lasso-anchor-id-17515-13086\" class=\"lasso-container\">\n    <!-- LASSO DISPLAY BOX (https:\/\/getlasso.co) -->\n\t<div class=\"lasso-display lasso-cutter lasso-url-amzn-blue-buffalo-dog-food-for-senior-dogs-life-protection-formula-natural-chicken-brown-rice-flavor-senior-dry-dog-food-30-lb-bag \">\n\n\t\t<!-- BADGE -->\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"lasso-badge\">\n\t\t\t\tOUR PICK\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t<!-- LASSO TITLE, PRICE, DESC, AND IMAGE -->\n\t\t<div class=\"lasso-box-1\">\n\t\t\t<a class=\"lasso-image\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B0009YUGA6?tag=pawsinsider-20\" data-lasso-box-trackable=\"true\" data-lasso-id=\"17515\" data-lasso-name=\"Blue Buffalo Life Protection Formula for Senior Dogs - Chicken &amp; Brown Rice\" title=\"Blue Buffalo Life Protection Formula for Senior Dogs - Chicken &amp; Brown Rice\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\">\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pawsinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/51BFda1DGXL._SL500_.webp\" height=\"500\" width=\"500\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"Blue Buffalo Life Protection Formula for Senior Dogs - Chicken &amp; Brown Rice\">\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<!-- BUTTONS -->\n\t\t<div class=\"lasso-box-2\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"lasso-title\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B0009YUGA6?tag=pawsinsider-20\" data-lasso-box-trackable=\"true\" data-lasso-id=\"17515\" data-lasso-name=\"Blue Buffalo Life Protection Formula for Senior Dogs - Chicken &amp; Brown Rice\" title=\"Blue Buffalo Life Protection Formula for Senior Dogs - Chicken &amp; Brown Rice\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\tBlue Buffalo Life Protection Formula for Senior Dogs - Chicken & Brown Rice\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"lasso-description\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>Blue Buffalo Life Protection Formula was created for the health and well-being of dogs.

The first thing you should look for in any dog food is a whole protein as the first ingredient. Eukanuba certainly meets that standard, leading with whole chicken as a source of lean, muscle-building protein.<\/p>\n<p>Carbohydrates are derived from wheat and whole-grain sorghum. Specifically designed for older small-breed dogs, Eukanuba Small Breed Senior Dry Dog Food includes glucosamine and chondroitin for joint and cartilage support. The recipe also includes DHA and an antioxidant blend for optimum brain health.<\/p>\n<p>The Eukanuba formula has a lower amount of calories, and a healthy fat ratio optimized to create sustainable energy for your senior small breed dog.<\/p>\n<p>None of these options are perfect, however, and Eukanuba Small Breed Senior Dry Dog Food is no exception. Chicken by-product meal is a major ingredient, and the only source of omega fatty acids is vegetable oil. But overall, this is a good, popular dog food. On Chewy, it has an average rating of 4.6 out of 5 stars, and 90% of users say they would recommend it to another.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<div  class='avia-table av-1sa861-53-64d5a1951a6bc7b8513e6df8a79576be main_color avia-pricing-table-container avia_pricing_minimal  avia-builder-el-21  el_after_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-last  pros-cons-table avia-table-2' ><div class=\"pricing-table-wrap\"><ul class='pricing-table '><li class='avia-heading-row'><div class='first-table-item'>Pros<\/div><span class='pricing-extra'><\/span><\/li><li class=''>Lower calorie diet<br \/><\/li><li class=''>Lean protein for muscle mass<br \/><\/li><li class=''>Immune support<\/li><\/ul><\/div><div class=\"pricing-table-wrap\"><ul class='pricing-table '><li class='avia-heading-row'><div class='first-table-item'>Cons<\/div><span class='pricing-extra'><\/span><\/li><li class=''>Contains chicken by-products<br \/><\/li><li class=''>Minimal omega fatty acids<\/li><li class=' empty-table-cell'><span class='fallback-table-val'>Immune support<\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/p><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-6fsifl-708fef12b2256f78bf80ee9e41760f7a av_one_full  avia-builder-el-22  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_full  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-llf3105g-edc18e49b74f867101dea0ed067d5aac '  ><div class='avia_textblock' ><div id=\"lasso-anchor-id-17519-13088\" class=\"lasso-container\">\n    <!-- LASSO DISPLAY BOX (https:\/\/getlasso.co) -->\n\t<div class=\"lasso-display lasso-cutter lasso-url-amzn-hills-science-diet-dry-dog-food-adult-7-for-senior-dogs-small-bites-chicken-meal-barley-brown-rice-recipe-33-lb-bag \">\n\n\t\t<!-- BADGE -->\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"lasso-badge\">\n\t\t\t\tALSO GREAT\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t<!-- LASSO TITLE, PRICE, DESC, AND IMAGE -->\n\t\t<div class=\"lasso-box-1\">\n\t\t\t<a class=\"lasso-image\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B009B87RWG?tag=pawsinsider-20\" data-lasso-box-trackable=\"true\" data-lasso-id=\"17519\" data-lasso-name=\"Hill&#039;s Science Diet for Senior Dogs - Small Bites, Chicken Meal, Barley &amp; Brown Rice Recipe\" title=\"Hill&#039;s Science Diet for Senior Dogs - Small Bites, Chicken Meal, Barley &amp; Brown Rice Recipe\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\">\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pawsinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/41A-kg1CDdL._SL500_.webp\" height=\"500\" width=\"500\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"Hill&#039;s Science Diet for Senior Dogs - Small Bites, Chicken Meal, Barley &amp; Brown Rice Recipe\">\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<!-- BUTTONS -->\n\t\t<div class=\"lasso-box-2\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"lasso-title\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B009B87RWG?tag=pawsinsider-20\" data-lasso-box-trackable=\"true\" data-lasso-id=\"17519\" data-lasso-name=\"Hill&#039;s Science Diet for Senior Dogs - Small Bites, Chicken Meal, Barley &amp; Brown Rice Recipe\" title=\"Hill&#039;s Science Diet for Senior Dogs - Small Bites, Chicken Meal, Barley &amp; Brown Rice Recipe\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\tHill's Science Diet for Senior Dogs - Small Bites, Chicken Meal, Barley & Brown Rice Recipe\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"lasso-description\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>Hill's Science Diet Adult 7+ Small Bites Chicken Meal, Barley &amp; Rice Recipe Dry Dog Food provides your pup with precise nutrition for a healthy lifestyle.

The primary ingredient is chicken meal, which is richer in protein than typical whole chicken. That\u2019s perfect for senior dogs who need to maintain muscle health.<\/p>\n<p>The complex carbohydrates are derived from whole grain sorghum, cracked-pearl barley, and brewer\u2019s rice. An interesting aspect of Hill\u2019s Science Diet 7+ Small Breed is that it comes in a very small kibble size, which is easier to chew and digest.<\/p>\n<p>The recipe is designed to promote healthy weight and sustainable energy. It also has Omega-6 fatty acids for coat health.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, this recipe doesn\u2019t have any glucosamine or chondroitin for joint and cartilage support, so you\u2019ll need to look for supplements if your dog needs joint support. Overall, though, it is rated 4.8 out of 5 stars on Chewy, and 98% would recommend it to others.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<div  class='avia-table av-1sa861-43-5be2e36e491dd584588c553dd253d3cb main_color avia-pricing-table-container avia_pricing_minimal  avia-builder-el-26  el_after_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-last  pros-cons-table avia-table-3' ><div class=\"pricing-table-wrap\"><ul class='pricing-table '><li class='avia-heading-row'><div class='first-table-item'>Pros<\/div><span class='pricing-extra'><\/span><\/li><li class=''>High-protein chicken meal<br \/><\/li><li class=''>Complex carbohydrates<br \/><\/li><li class=''>Small-size kibble for easier chewing and digestion<\/li><\/ul><\/div><div class=\"pricing-table-wrap\"><ul class='pricing-table '><li class='avia-heading-row'><div class='first-table-item'>Cons<\/div><span class='pricing-extra'><\/span><\/li><li class=''>No joint support<br \/><\/li><li class=''>Some dogs don\u2019t like the smell<\/li><li class=' empty-table-cell'><span class='fallback-table-val'>Small-size kibble for easier chewing and digestion<\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/p><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-3mroi9-3ad9250f0edb1259f984783a856d5527 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-27  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_full  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-llf2v5aj-d40b5867b845b10c570bc144019bda70 '  ><div class='avia_textblock' ><div id=\"lasso-anchor-id-17524-13089\" class=\"lasso-container\">\n    <!-- LASSO DISPLAY BOX (https:\/\/getlasso.co) -->\n\t<div class=\"lasso-display lasso-cutter lasso-url-best-senior-dog-food-for-small-breeds-4 \">\n\n\t\t<!-- BADGE -->\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"lasso-badge\">\n\t\t\t\tALSO GREAT\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t<!-- LASSO TITLE, PRICE, DESC, AND IMAGE -->\n\t\t<div class=\"lasso-box-1\">\n\t\t\t<a class=\"lasso-image\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pawsinsider.com\/go\/best-senior-dog-food-for-small-breeds-4\/\" data-lasso-box-trackable=\"true\" data-lasso-id=\"17524\" data-lasso-name=\"American Journey Senior Chicken &amp; Sweet Potato Recipe Grain-Free  Dry Dog Food, 24-lb bag\" title=\"American Journey Senior Chicken &amp; Sweet Potato Recipe Grain-Free  Dry Dog Food, 24-lb bag\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\">\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pawsinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/151814_MAIN._AC_SL1500_V1669101087_.webp\" height=\"500\" width=\"500\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"American Journey Senior Chicken &amp; Sweet Potato Recipe Grain-Free  Dry Dog Food, 24-lb bag\">\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<!-- BUTTONS -->\n\t\t<div class=\"lasso-box-2\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"lasso-title\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pawsinsider.com\/go\/best-senior-dog-food-for-small-breeds-4\/\" data-lasso-box-trackable=\"true\" data-lasso-id=\"17524\" data-lasso-name=\"American Journey Senior Chicken &amp; Sweet Potato Recipe Grain-Free  Dry Dog Food, 24-lb bag\" title=\"American Journey Senior Chicken &amp; Sweet Potato Recipe Grain-Free  Dry Dog Food, 24-lb bag\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\tAmerican Journey Senior Chicken & Sweet Potato Recipe Grain-Free  Dry Dog Food, 24-lb bag\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"lasso-description\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>Help your older guy age gracefully with Wellness Complete Health Chicken &amp; Sweet Potato.

It has a variety of protein sources, leading with deboned chicken and also including protein-rich chicken meal and turkey meal. It also includes healthy chicken fat for sustainable energy.<\/p>\n<p>The carbohydrates are also diverse, including peas, sweet potatoes, pumpkins, and chickpeas. These complex carbohydrates should help your dog maintain a steady weight, compared to the simple carbs in other options.<\/p>\n<p>There is a wide variety of healthy supplements in this recipe, including L-Carnitine, taurine, vitamin A and E, and even mineral-rich marine algae. Real blueberries add an antioxidant boost for immune health, glucosamine, and chondroitin support joints and healthy cartilage, and flaxseed and coconut oil add omega fatty acids for a healthy, lustrous coat.<\/p>\n<p>There are minimal vegetables for healthy high fiber content, so if that\u2019s what you\u2019re looking for, this might not be the food for you. Otherwise, though, it is an excellent all-around dog food that accounts for many other senior small breed dog health needs.

The recipe isn\u2019t just healthy, but it\u2019s delicious and appealing.<\/p>\n<p>The recipe is made from whole chicken, chicken liver, carrots, peas, cranberries, blueberries, brown rice, and barley. That provides an excellent blend of lean protein, natural fiber, and complex carbohydrates. Just like all Blue Buffalo recipes, this one consists of exclusively real ingredients and vitamin supplements, with no additives or fillers.<\/p>\n<p>The natural ingredients are enhanced with antioxidants for immune health, glucosamine and chondroitin for joint support, and flaxseed, which contains omega fatty acids.<\/p>\n<p>On the downside, canned dog food typically has a higher unit price than dry dog food; you\u2019ll need to invest a bit more in this option than some of the others on the list. But if it\u2019s within your budget, it\u2019s an excellent overall dog food that covers nearly every need of most senior dogs. Chewy users rate it 4.7 out of 5 stars, and 97% say they would recommend it.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<div  class='avia-table av-1sa861-23-4841605a4d3af4ba561495a25defc8b7 main_color avia-pricing-table-container avia_pricing_minimal  avia-builder-el-36  el_after_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-last  pros-cons-table avia-table-5' ><div class=\"pricing-table-wrap\"><ul class='pricing-table '><li class='avia-heading-row'><div class='first-table-item'>Pros<\/div><span class='pricing-extra'><\/span><\/li><li class=''>Extra delicious; great for dogs with lesser appetites<br \/><\/li><li class=''>Wide array of natural ingredients<br \/><\/li><li class=''>Immune, joint, and coat support<\/li><\/ul><\/div><div class=\"pricing-table-wrap\"><ul class='pricing-table '><li class='avia-heading-row'><div class='first-table-item'>Cons<\/div><span class='pricing-extra'><\/span><\/li><li class=''>Pricier than dry dog food<\/li><li class=' empty-table-cell'><span class='fallback-table-val'>Wide array of natural ingredients<br \/><\/span><\/li><li class=' empty-table-cell'><span class='fallback-table-val'>Immune, joint, and coat support<\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/p><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-an76x-18-e2f2b0991286e31b8994dc5cb688ea5c\">\n.flex_column.av-an76x-18-e2f2b0991286e31b8994dc5cb688ea5c{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  id=\"recommend\"  class='flex_column av-an76x-18-e2f2b0991286e31b8994dc5cb688ea5c av_one_full  avia-builder-el-37  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_full  first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  column-top-margin'     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-1ggkacx-60fd08209f233f7ce21e495eb1e99217\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-1ggkacx-60fd08209f233f7ce21e495eb1e99217{\npadding-bottom:20px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-1ggkacx-60fd08209f233f7ce21e495eb1e99217 .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-1ggkacx-60fd08209f233f7ce21e495eb1e99217 .av-subheading{\nfont-size:14px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-1ggkacx-60fd08209f233f7ce21e495eb1e99217 av-special-heading-h2 blockquote modern-quote  avia-builder-el-38  el_before_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-first '><h2 class='av-special-heading-tag'  >Everything we recommend<\/h2><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-llf3g81x-bff88b9823a06e28e39ff07f882bf857 '  ><div class='avia_textblock' >\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<div id=\"lasso-anchor-id-9-13091\" class=\"lasso-display-table ls-dp lasso-table-cutter-theme\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"table-vertical table-vertical-desktop template-1 include-badge table-vertical-scroll \">\n\t\t<table class=\"lasso-table table-borderless table-title\">\n\t\t\t<tbody>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<tr>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<td class=\"text-center field field-group-detail\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"cell has-badge-text\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"badge-text-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"badge-text\">OUR PICK<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"cell-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<!-- Lasso Rating field -->\n\t<div class=\"lasso-fields\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<!-- Image field -->\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B0009YUGA6?tag=pawsinsider-20\" data-lasso-box-trackable=\"true\" data-lasso-id=\"17515\" data-lasso-name=\"Blue Buffalo Life Protection Formula for Senior Dogs -

So small breed dogs would be regarded as senior around 7 to 10 years old.<\/p>\n<p>That will vary for each individual, though. Watch for changes to your dog\u2019s energy level, weight, or behavior, and consult with your veterinarian as to when it\u2019s time to switch to senior dog food.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-bvafjd-70f33ffa799134f64d5ce5a4c40a2baa\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-bvafjd-70f33ffa799134f64d5ce5a4c40a2baa{\npadding-bottom:20px;\nfont-size:24px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-bvafjd-70f33ffa799134f64d5ce5a4c40a2baa .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n#top #wrap_all .av-special-heading.av-bvafjd-70f33ffa799134f64d5ce5a4c40a2baa .av-special-heading-tag{\nfont-size:24px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-bvafjd-70f33ffa799134f64d5ce5a4c40a2baa .av-subheading{\nfont-size:14px;\n}\n\n@media only screen and (min-width: 480px) and (max-width: 767px){ \n#top #wrap_all .av-special-heading.av-bvafjd-70f33ffa799134f64d5ce5a4c40a2baa .av-special-heading-tag{\nfont-size:0.8em;\n}\n}\n\n@media only screen and (max-width: 479px){ \n#top #wrap_all .av-special-heading.av-bvafjd-70f33ffa799134f64d5ce5a4c40a2baa .av-special-heading-tag{\nfont-size:0.8em;\n}\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-bvafjd-70f33ffa799134f64d5ce5a4c40a2baa av-special-heading-h3 blockquote modern-quote  avia-builder-el-49  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock  no-toc av-inherit-size'><h3 class='av-special-heading-tag'  >What are the Nutritional Needs of Senior Dogs?<\/h3><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-k9llj131-9-51774af325f7f7e03002d0f3dce375ac '  ><div class='avia_textblock' ><p>Just like humans, dogs\u2019 metabolisms slow, and their health needs change as they age. As dogs first enter their senior years, one of the main concerns is obesity. The same amount of calories that used to maintain your dog\u2019s weight and fitness may start to cause them to gain weight.

Dogs may start to actually lose weight, and they will definitely be at risk of losing muscle mass.<\/p>\n<p>Many people don\u2019t know that loss of muscle mass for senior dogs isn\u2019t just about losing strength. Loss of muscle fibers can tax on immune health, stress response, and response to physical strain. In fact,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.akc.org\/expert-advice\/nutrition\/how-to-feed-the-senior-dog\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"13084\">a study showed<\/a>\u00a0that 13-year-old Beagles need 50% more protein than two-year-old Beagles.<\/p>\n<p>So, protein intake is vital for senior dogs. However, before you give your dog a high-protein diet, it\u2019s essential to consult with your veterinarian to see if your dog is showing any signs of kidney disease. Kidney disease can be a relatively common issue for older dogs, and if your dog is struggling with it, then a high-protein diet can put extra strain on their kidneys.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-8t0b5l-cf844b969429d1af3303bba0731f09ea\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-8t0b5l-cf844b969429d1af3303bba0731f09ea{\npadding-bottom:20px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-8t0b5l-cf844b969429d1af3303bba0731f09ea .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-8t0b5l-cf844b969429d1af3303bba0731f09ea .av-subheading{\nfont-size:14px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-8t0b5l-cf844b969429d1af3303bba0731f09ea av-special-heading-h4 blockquote modern-quote  avia-builder-el-53  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock  no-toc'><h4 class='av-special-heading-tag'  >Carbohydrates<\/h4><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-k9llj131-7-3d49dabef8da1295c40461caf2d6bbe4 '  ><div class='avia_textblock' ><p>Many dog foods are packed with high-glycemic simple carbohydrates that can lead to weight and blood sugar fluctuations.

One of the most significant issues facing many senior dogs is hip dysplasia or other forms of joint deterioration, so you\u2019ll definitely want to look for them in your dog\u2019s food.<\/p>\n<p>Just like humans, senior dogs can be vulnerable to hypertension and high blood pressure, so you\u2019ll want to avoid diets that are too high in sodium. However, they\u2019re also susceptible to dehydration, so you won\u2019t want to eliminate sodium or other minerals altogether.<\/p>\n<p>Omega fatty acids are a versatile nutrient that promotes heart health and a healthy coat as well. Like glucosamine and chondroitin, you can look for omega fatty acid supplements for your senior dog independent of their food. But if you can include these supplements right there in the food, that can be tremendously helpful.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-4ixr89-8008381418dd598af75cbdf368420d47\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-4ixr89-8008381418dd598af75cbdf368420d47{\npadding-bottom:20px;\nfont-size:24px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-4ixr89-8008381418dd598af75cbdf368420d47 .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n#top #wrap_all .av-special-heading.av-4ixr89-8008381418dd598af75cbdf368420d47 .av-special-heading-tag{\nfont-size:24px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-4ixr89-8008381418dd598af75cbdf368420d47 .av-subheading{\nfont-size:14px;\n}\n\n@media only screen and (min-width: 480px) and (max-width: 767px){ \n#top #wrap_all .av-special-heading.av-4ixr89-8008381418dd598af75cbdf368420d47 .av-special-heading-tag{\nfont-size:0.8em;\n}\n}\n\n@media only screen and (max-width: 479px){ \n#top #wrap_all .av-special-heading.av-4ixr89-8008381418dd598af75cbdf368420d47 .av-special-heading-tag{\nfont-size:0.8em;\n}\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-4ixr89-8008381418dd598af75cbdf368420d47 av-special-heading-h3 blockquote modern-quote  avia-builder-el-61  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock  no-toc av-inherit-size'><h3 class='av-special-heading-tag'  >Types of Dog Food<\/h3><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-k9llj131-2-e58d7938d975bc99f2194f5de07f84b6 '  ><div class='avia_textblock' ><p>When deciding on a dog food, you\u2019ll need to choose between canned food and dry food, as well as grain-free vs. whole grain dog food.<\/p>\n<p>Dry dog food is the most common variety. It is generally less expensive, stores longer, and is crunchier, which is perfect for dogs who like to chew. Canned food, on the other hand, is more fragrant and flavorful. Some senior dogs begin losing weight because their reduced sense of smell and taste leads to a loss of appetite. For these dogs, canned food is a perfect option.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, grain-free dog food has become very popular in recent years. However, there isn\u2019t necessarily an inherent benefit to grain-free dog food in comparison to whole-grain dog food. That\u2019s just a matter of individual preference. Take note of how your dog responds to specific formulas.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-an76x-12-bcc9e1a127bd5043dad9081061ee5ed9\">\n.flex_column.av-an76x-12-bcc9e1a127bd5043dad9081061ee5ed9{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:20px 0px 20px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-an76x-12-bcc9e1a127bd5043dad9081061ee5ed9 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-63  el_after_av_one_full  avia-builder-el-last  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-2bvlt5-d8fa228cbb6eb91b2e7171207787659c\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-2bvlt5-d8fa228cbb6eb91b2e7171207787659c{\npadding-bottom:40px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-2bvlt5-d8fa228cbb6eb91b2e7171207787659c .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-2bvlt5-d8fa228cbb6eb91b2e7171207787659c .av-subheading{\nfont-size:14px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-2bvlt5-d8fa228cbb6eb91b2e7171207787659c av-special-heading-h2 blockquote modern-quote  avia-builder-el-64  el_before_av_image  avia-builder-el-first '><h2 class='av-special-heading-tag'  >Still Trying To Decide On The Best Senior Dog Food For Small Breeds?<\/h2><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-b58vt-4-95cadaa8e547c946433c83af6b74e520\">\n.avia-image-container.av-b58vt-4-95cadaa8e547c946433c83af6b74e520 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-b58vt-4-95cadaa8e547c946433c83af6b74e520 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-b58vt-4-95cadaa8e547c946433c83af6b74e520 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-65  el_after_av_heading  el_before_av_hr '  ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class='wp-image-2775 avia-img-lazy-loading-2775 avia_image ' src=\"https:\/\/www.pawsinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/close-up-of-dog-eating.jpg\" alt='close up of dog eating' title='Still Trying To Decide On The Best Senior Dog Food For Small Breeds?'  height=\"480\" width=\"780\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pawsinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/close-up-of-dog-eating.jpg 780w, https:\/\/www.pawsinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/close-up-of-dog-eating-300x185.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.pawsinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/close-up-of-dog-eating-768x473.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.pawsinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/close-up-of-dog-eating-705x434.jpg 705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 780px) 100vw, 780px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-k9lmkjl2-3-d61b7bff26a8d6300e120651ef4d4580\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-k9lmkjl2-3-d61b7bff26a8d6300e120651ef4d4580{\nheight:10px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-k9lmkjl2-3-d61b7bff26a8d6300e120651ef4d4580 hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-66  el_after_av_image  el_before_av_textblock  av-small-hide av-mini-hide'><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-k9llj131-1-e31c90bf54ae2b828758aa1ec2a26b88 '  ><div class='avia_textblock' ><p>Senior small breed dogs have several unique health needs, which many common, cheap dog food brands fail to meet.
