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.

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
Wally came to us when he was nine weeks old. For the first four weeks, he was fed the food he received from the breeder. However, we were not satisfied, and our little darling didn't like it at all and in the end, he did not want to touch it. We spent several days researching high-quality dry food brands, and finally we settled on Puppy Chicken from PLATINUM. As soon as we opened the bag, we were impressed by the consistency and smell of the food. Wally felt the same way, because he was bouncing up and down and could hardly wait to try it. He absolutely loves it. He almost inhaled the food, which was very unlike him. After just a week, we began to notice changes. Before, he would have very soft faeces 8-10 times a day. Since eating PLATINUM, this has gone down to 2-3 times and they’re solid. He is also much more agile, and his coat has become incredibly soft and shiny. We are often asked about his food. Since he still likes it at nearly six months, we use it as a treat in training. He is still crazy about it. So, we are 100% PLATINUM converts. Thank you for making such a great dry food. There’s nothing better than seeing our dog so happy.

Since 2016, we are the first-time dog owners of an Elo female dog from the Spreewald. We started with barf feeding, which was recommended by the breeder, but after a few months Ella's eating behaviour became very bad and we were quite concerned. Our vet recommended PLATINUM as he gave it to his own dogs. We tried it and with PLATINUM wet and dry dog food, Ella has become a beautiful adult lady dog who brings us a lot of joy. We can take her with us anywhere and she has become a real member of the family.
Many thanks to Platinum for making our dog feel good!

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.

I have had only positive experiences with your food with my Labrador. He has a sensitive stomach but so far, he has tolerated your food well.
You have helped him to become symptom-free.
So, thank you.

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.
