Senior dog nutrition guide

Here are some recommendations from Embark’s expert team:


Main Course

For small senior dogs, choose high-quality proteins to maintain their muscle mass and overall health at a time when they may have smaller appetites.

Dental Care

Small senior dogs who often struggle with dental disease may benefit from soft, wet food that's easier to chew. Wet foods also double as a lower-calorie option, due to their high water content.

Immune Support

As your dog ages, they might benefit from supplements that offer a little extra support for their oral, digestive, and immune health.

DNA personalization

By testing your dog’s DNA, Embark can personalize nutrition recommendations for your dog based on their unique genetic makeup.
