Specifically formulated for dogs 10 and older, Royal Canin's Aging 10+ is the top vet pick for geriatric dogs. It's one of the few brands with rigorous third-party testing and a dedicated formula for the oldest seniors.
Royal Canin is what vets reach for when a dog is truly old — not just 'senior' but geriatric. The Aging 10+ formula is purpose-built for dogs in their final years, and the community consistently reports real health improvements.
“I feed my 11-year old shar pei royal canin - it's one of only 7 dog food brands that have undergone rigorous testing. He has to eat their gastrointestinal food, which is made of pork, as he needs a low-fat diet due to an issue with pancreatitis a year ago.”
