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
We tried a few kinds of food for Shadow, but they all gave him diarrhoea - until we tried yours. Since then, he hasn’t had any more digestion problems. He gets dry dog food in the morning and wet food in the evening. In addition, the body metabolises most of the food so only a little is excreted. It is also very digestible as it does not swell like other foods. It also smells very pleasant, so much so that my three-year-old nephew wanted to try it. We are very satisfied with it and highly recommend it, so we are very happy that we can order it again and again without any problems.

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!

Luke has had stomach problems since he was a puppy. Even changing over to well-known food types has not helped. I heard about PLATINUM from a friend, but I was very sceptical initially. As with all recommendations, I did some thorough research first, but I was quickly convinced by the many positive customer reviews and the excellent composition of the food. Ordering and delivery were both very quick. I immediately switched Luke to PLATINUM and after 4 days he was feeling better than ever.
No more stomach problems
and he was much better in general. I definitely won’t change again, and my next dog will also get PLATINUM.

I have to say that I am really happy with the food, and I cannot stop recommending it to friends and acquaintances for their dogs.
Maddox is now over five years old, and since we switched away from puppy food, he has only eaten PLATINUM food.
Every time he sees his food, he gets excited like a little puppy and eats the whole bowl.
So, no other food comes into my house. I trust the quality ingredients. For variety, I always order the 3 x 5 kg pack.

I have a female Rhodesian Ridgeback, who will be 7 years old this year. Two and a half years ago, she started eating PLATINUM (Lamb+Rice), and it solved many problems...!
No flaky skin, no ear infections and her digestive system is working as it should...
I’m really happy that we switched to this dry dog food and
Nala thinks it’s really tasty.
