Orijen Senior Dry Dog Food is bursting with the protein-packed, veterinary-inspected meats that form a Biologically Appropriate diet of 38% protein and 20% low-glycemic carbohydrates. As dogs age, they become less efficient at metabolizing the very proteins vital to their well being, so appropriate levels of dietary protein is essential for enabling your senior dog's peak conditioning.

These fatty acids are essential for your aging dog's immune and nervous systems, as well as glowing skin and hair coat.
