Grain-Free Senior Working Dog Food with Trout & Salmon
Give your older working dog high-quality fish protein with our Trout & Salmon Senior Working Dog Food with Sweet Potato & Asparagus.
Specially formulated for senior dogs, this grain-free recipe contains 50% trout and salmon, including freshly prepared trout, freshly prepared salmon and salmon oil.
With 25% protein, 8% fat and 4% Omega 3, it combines quality fish protein with a moderate fat content and ingredients selected to support joints, digestion, skin and coat as your dog grows older.
A dedicated Joint Care Pack containing glucosamine, MSM and chondroitin sulphate makes this recipe particularly well suited to senior working dogs whose mobility and joint health are becoming increasingly important.
50% Trout & Salmon
Fish makes up 50% of this recipe, including:
- 30% freshly prepared trout
- 11% dried salmon
- 4% freshly prepared salmon
- 3% salmon oil
- 2% salmon stock
Trout and salmon provide animal protein together with naturally occurring nutrients and fatty acids.
With 25% crude protein, the recipe provides quality protein to help maintain normal muscle condition in older dogs.
Rich in Omega 3
One of the standout features of this senior recipe is its 4% Omega 3 content.
Omega 3 fatty acids have a number of important nutritional roles and help support normal skin and coat condition.
For owners specifically looking for a fish-based senior dog food with a high Omega 3 content, the combination of trout, salmon and salmon oil makes this recipe particularly attractive.
Moderate 8% Fat
The recipe contains just 8% crude oils and fats, with approximately 340 kcal of metabolisable energy per 100g.
Senior dogs often experience changes in activity and energy requirements as they get older. A dog that once worked or exercised intensively may gradually become less active while still needing high-quality nutrition.
The relatively moderate fat level makes this recipe particularly worth considering for older working dogs with reduced energy requirements.
Feeding quantities should always be adjusted according to the individual dog’s workload, activity and body condition.
Joint Support for Older Working Dogs
Healthy mobility becomes increasingly important as dogs age.
Our Trout & Salmon senior recipe contains a dedicated Joint Care Pack consisting of:
- Glucosamine
- Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM)
- Chondroitin sulphate
These ingredients are included to help support cartilage and healthy joints in senior dogs.
For dogs that have spent years running, training or working, this is one of the most important differences between a general adult recipe and a food developed specifically with senior dogs in mind.
Grain-Free with Sweet Potato
This senior working dog food is made without added grain.
Instead, the recipe uses ingredients including 24% sweet potato, potato and peas.
Sweet potato provides a complex carbohydrate source and is naturally rich in nutrients.
Grain-free food can be useful for owners specifically looking to avoid grain or for dogs that do not get on well with particular grain-containing diets.
However, many dogs tolerate grain perfectly well, so whether a grain-free food is appropriate should depend on the individual dog.
Prebiotics for Digestive Health
Our senior fish recipe contains both MOS and FOS prebiotics.
MOS stands for mannan-oligosaccharides and FOS for fructo-oligosaccharides.
These prebiotics are included to help encourage beneficial gut bacteria and support healthy digestion.
Maintaining good digestive function can be particularly valuable as your dog’s needs change with age.
Sweet Potato & Asparagus
Alongside the high fish content, the recipe contains 24% sweet potato and asparagus.
These ingredients form part of a carefully balanced recipe developed specifically for senior dogs.
No Artificial Colours or Preservatives
There are no added artificial colours or preservatives.
The recipe is naturally preserved using rosemary extract.

Changing to This Senior Dog Food
When introducing a new food, make the change gradually.
Mix a small amount of the new food with your dog’s existing food and increase the proportion gradually over several days.
This gives the digestive system time to adapt to the new recipe.
Always make sure fresh drinking water is available.
How Much Should I Feed?
The correct amount depends on your dog’s individual requirements.
Consider:
- body weight
- age
- activity
- workload
- breed
- body condition
- environment
A senior dog that still works regularly may require more food than a retired dog of the same size.
Use the recommended feeding guide as your starting point and adjust according to your dog’s condition.
