Medium Adult 7+ is the Size Health Nutrition senior recipe for medium breed dogs, 23 to 55 lb, over 7 years old. The first five ingredients by pre cooking weight are brewers rice, chicken by-product meal, wheat, corn protein meal and chicken fat, so three plant based ingredients bracket the two chicken derived ones. It carries lower fat, 12 percent minimum, than the standard Medium Adult formula, and the manufacturer's feeding instruction reads to feed 2 to 4 equal portions of the diet per day with optimal amounts varying by activity level. Royal Canin sells the recipe in a 30 lb bag. It sits above Medium Adult and below no further medium size senior step; Royal Canin does not publish a second aging tier for this size on its US site. Whatever food ends up in the bowl, a single ingredient freeze dried topper is a way to add interest without changing the diet, which is what Sniff and Shift makes in Malvern, Pennsylvania.
