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.
Purina PRO PLAN Age Defence SMALL & MINI ADULT 9+ has been developed for ageing adult dogs of small and mini breeds (weighing less than 10 kg). This dry dog food contains vitamin D, minerals and specific levels of omega-3 fatty acids to help support healthy teeth and gums, as well as ingredients proven to help reduce tartar build up by 36%.

Reviews
I really hoped my dog would take to this food as I have heard great reports on it. Unfortunately he is very set in his ways and would not eat it :( I'll keep trying small amounts though.
My elderly and fussy chihuahua loves this food. From the first to the last biscuit he wolfs it down and seems to look forward to dinner time. I highly recommend, his coat is shiny and eyes clear and to be how st he just seems happier.
I’ve been feeding my 11 year old Jack Russel this for 2 weeks now. He has a touch of arthritis in his front leg and is just starting to slow down a bit so I’m happy to try anything that may keep him alert and happy for as long as possible.
So far, so good. He’s really enjoying it and had no trouble transitioning from his usual food to this. I intent to keep him on this for a while yet to see if i see the improvements it claims to offer.
My dog has been on PURINA® PRO PLAN® DOG SMALL AND MINI ADULT 9+ WITH OPTIAGE™ - RICH IN CHICKEN for around 4 weeks now and she's loving it! We received it as part of a trial and I was dubious about whether it would help. She's a 9yr old lhasa apso and was beginning to show signs of slowing down and stiffen up. When we first switched her over to it she was picking all her previous brand out and dropping it on the floor and just eating the Pro plan! She has been much livelier the last two weeks, a lot more alert and even asking for food (she used to just graze). We're so pleased with her progress on it and amazed that it has actually made a difference.
