Promote your dog's mental performance with Purina PRO PLAN Age Defence. From approximately 9 years of age, a small dog's brain begins to change how it metabolises glucose, which can affect memory, learning, attention, and decision-making. Purina PRO PLAN Age Defence contains a patented blend of nutrients proven to help improve curiosity and responsiveness by supporting cognitive function, with visible results within 30 days.
Purina PRO PLAN Age Defence dry dog food is made with high quality chicken pieces as the first ingredient, and adapted protein and fat levels to help your dog stay in top shape during his golden years. Each Age Defence Formula also contains specific levels of botanical oils proven to help support cognitive function in the brain and promote alertness, mental sharpness, and family interaction in dogs 9 years and older. Glucosamine and EPA, an omega-3 fatty acid, help support the mobility of your dog's joints for healthy ageing.

Reviews
I have a very fussy 10 year old Yorkshire terrier. But when this item first got delivered he was so eager to get into the box he could obviously smell it, I have no idea how as it was all well sealed but he was definitely excited by the box.
And we weren't disappointed, my once fussy pooch, loves this food. I'm so pleased he has actually got dog food that he enjoys and is very good for him. The bag is large and should last quite a while more still, so he will be a happy boy.
Very happy with this.
As our girls are now 12, they have started to get a bit fussy in their old age and will turn their nose up at their regular food, so find we have to swap and change regularly. This, however has been devoured ! From the minute the bag came out of the box, they had a good sniff and gobbled up a handful of the food! We have been gradually adding this to their regular wet food and they are now having about 50/50. The bowls are empty every time. The food is a great size, especially for little dogs with few teeth! It’s definitely a hit and will definitely buy more!
I have 9 year miniature poodle who has struggled since she had a womb infection over 2 years ago. This food is amazing, it's really brought back her spark, she's bright eyed, more lively and energetic, and her ears are far more pricked. Nice small kibble, which is great as she refuses to chew her food!
Hamish is a 13 year old Westie. He is quite a fussy eater and does not like to bite big biscuits. The Purina Pro Plan Small and Mini rich in chicken was the perfect size for him. As soon as i put the first bowl of food down he took to it straight away. Some days he will walk away from his breakfast and not return to it until lunch time. Not this time. Was such a lovely sight to see him enjoy his meals for the first time in ages. I would so recommend the Purina Pro Plan Small and Mini to all the little fussy eaters out there. He looks like a new little chap. Happy and healthy. Is a very special lad and so grateful to Purina for making the perfect food for the perfect dog.
