Product details
Metabolism changes as dogs age - the energy requirement decreases while the need for high-quality nutrients remains the same. At the same time, it becomes more difficult for the body to maintain its essential physiological processes. A specially customised diet can help to support vitality and well-being in old age - especially for seniors who need an adapted diet, if simply reducing the amount of food is insufficient.
VETACTIVE Senior is a balanced and complete dry food for older dogs with special nutritional needs - without compromising on flavour, nutrition or high-quality ingredients.
- Easily digestible with optimally utilisable proteins
- 70% Fresh meat - for optimum flavour and valuable nutrients
- Adapted energy content - tailored to the reduced requirements of older dogs
- Supporting ingredients - for the supportive needs of senior dogs
Your dog also benefits from the advantages of FSG (Fleischsaftgarung):

Food change
We recommend an immediate change of dog food without a transitional phase. Due to the differences in digestibility, mixing PLATINUM Dry Food with another dry food is not advisable.

Our experience reports
Before I discovered PLATINUM dog food, I had tried numerous kinds of dog food, but my dog didn’t tolerate any of them. It is only since she started eating PLATINUM dog food that her digestive problems have disappeared. Whether it’s wet or dry, and whatever the flavour,
Nala loves it all,
especially the snacks ;)

Unfortunately, Loki is quite picky with food. After weeks of trying everything, we were recommended PLATINUM. We tried the wet food MENU Pure Fish. I have to say that the TetraPaks are a bit strange at first and I had certain reservations about the portion size. However, the food comes out of the pack easily and can then be thrown in the bin to save space.
It has a very soft consistency, a bit like a mousse.
It is really well digested, and Loki appears to enjoy it :)
No more diarrhoea or flatulence!
We have only been a customer of PLATINUM for a short time and are so far very satisfied.

We only have positive things to say about this dog food. Jago has a PLATINUM Chicken subscription. He loves to eat the food, which is very good for him.
We’re also really happy with Platinum's excellent service

When I first became aware of the PLATINUM Iberico+Greens, we - especially Zoey - had already been on quite the quest. Zoey is allergic to pretty much everything... Time and again, food would trigger ear infections or severe diarrhoea.
Shortly after the switch I noticed that her skin was getting better, the flaky skin had disappeared... and so it continued! We have now been free from ear infections and diarrhoea for 1.5 years.
Switching was definitely worth it for us!

Dear team, we have two Newfoundland who are now five years old. One of them had been getting smaller and smaller open spots under his coat since we bought him, the doctor said it was an allergy to something. We tried the more expensive anti-allergenic food without cereals, gluten etc. However, the ingredients made us suspicious, especially because they didn't stop the allergy. The other dog has had significant problems with his joints from an early age.
After I read an interesting book about the nutrition of wolves, I completely changed my mind. Both now get PLATINUM dry dog food Iberico + Greens in the morning and raw beef, turkey and chicken in the evening.
This combination is excellent! No more allergies for half a year. Joints are no longer an issue either. We also add herbal joint supplements to the food.
And when we travel and can't get hold of fresh meat, we combine the great Iberico + Greens and the practical wet food. Thank you, PLATINUM! We will remain loyal!
