Just like us, as dogs age their dietary needs change. In
general, dogs of seven years of age and older begin to experience
change, for larger breeds these changes start to happen around 6
years of age. At this stage more senior dogs need a high quality,
palatable diet that is easy to digest, along with a careful balance
of other essential nutrients.
OPTIMUM™ Adult
7+ has been formulated with a natural source of
glucosamine, higher protein and concentrated vitamin & mineral
levels to help support the health and immunity of older dogs 7
years+ (6 years+ for Giant Breeds >50kg).
OPTIMUM™ Adult
7+ is available in Chicken, Rice and Vegetables in a
2.7kg and 13.7kg pack size.
OPTIMUM™ provides a
nutritionally complete and balanced meal that your dog will enjoy
everyday.
BIOAVAILABILITY
OPTIMUM™ Adult
7+ is specially formulated to provide excellent
nutrient BIOAVAILABILITY. This means that due to
OPTIMUM™ product integrity, high levels of
nutrients are absorbed by your dog's body. Your dog gets more from
their food, to get more out of life.
SUPPORTS AGING DOGS
OPTIMUM™ Adult 7+ is
specifically designed to support the health of your older dog.
Higher protein and concentrated vitamin & mineral levels help
to increase nutrient availability, helping your dog continue to
live a long, happy life.
JOINT HEALTH
OPTIMUM™ Adult 7+ contains
high levels of chicken, a natural source of Glucosamine.
Glucosamine contains the natural building blocks for cartilage to
help maintain joint health. This is particularly important for
older dogs that are more prone to joint health problems.
HELPS STRENGTHEN IMMUNITY
The OPTIMUM™ range contains a unique blend
of antioxidants including vitamin E & C. Scientific
studies have proven that vitamin E & C help strengthen the
immune system, and keep your dog healthy by helping to reduce the
oxidative stress on your dog's cells.
SKIN & COAT HEALTH
The OPTIMUM™ range is enriched with a blend
of zinc and Omega 6 (a naturally occurring oil). Scientific
studies have shown that a blend of zinc and Omega 6 delivers a
healthy, shiny coat.
OPTIMUM™ DENTAL
DEFENCE
Like humans, maintaining good oral hygiene for dogs is an
important factor of good health. The
OPTIMUM™ specifically designed dental system
helps to reduce plaque build up and help protect teeth and
gums. The mechanical action of chewing the crunchy dry
kibble, in combination with the active ingredient (sodium
tripolyphosphate) helps promote good oral hygiene.
OPTIMUM™ HEART
HEALTH
The unique OPTIMUM™ dry product formulation
contains Arginine and Vitamin E. Scientific studies have shown that
Arginine and Vitamin E helps to maintain healthy blood
circulation.
HEALTHY DIGESTION The inclusion of wholegrains
and beet pulp in OPTIMUM™ provides a natural
source of fibre. This helps to control intestinal transit and
maximise nutrient absorption, resulting in smaller, firmer
stools.

Research shows that feeding your dog a mix of
both wet and dry products has a broad range of health
benefits. OPTIMUM™ has created a variety
of both wet and dry formulations to suit your dog at every life
stage. When feeding both, simply halve the recommended
quantities of each product.

vary depending on age, breed, activity level and environmental
factors.
