01
The Thinking

Older dogs need less of some things, more of others

As dogs age, activity levels slow down, and so do metabolisms and other key functions. Overweight dogs need a lower fat-to-protein ratio to help manage weight. This formulation includes age and lifestyle-specific ingredients, because at this stage appropriate nutrition plays a vital role in maintaining health, longevity and quality of life.

02
What It Does

Six things that matter later in life

Ageing joints, supported

Glucosamine and chondroitin provide support for ageing or overworked joints and cartilage, helping keep older dogs comfortable and moving.

A metabolism that has slowed

L-carnitine aids slowing metabolisms, helping the body convert fat into usable energy rather than storing it.

A mind that stays sharp

Dried algae, Schizochytrium sp., is included to help support cognitive ability in older dogs.

Weight kept in check

A lower fat-to-protein ratio assists with weight management for senior or overweight dogs without sacrificing the protein they still need.

Easy, steady energy

A low carbohydrate formulation using only rice, one high-quality, easily digestible grain, provides gentle all-day energy.

Digestive comfort

Prebiotic fibre supports beneficial gut bacteria and helps keep digestion regular as the body slows.

Feeding Guide

How much to feed each day

Grams per day. Senior dogs need less as activity slows, so start at the lower end of the band and adjust to keep body condition steady.

Questions

Everything else worth knowing

When is a dog considered senior?

It varies by breed and size, with larger dogs generally reaching it earlier. Your vet can tell you when a senior recipe becomes the right fit for your dog.

Can I feed this to an overweight younger dog?

Yes. This recipe is formulated for senior or overweight dogs, and the lower fat-to-protein ratio makes it suitable for weight management in adults too.

What does L-carnitine do?

It supports a slowing metabolism by helping the body use fat for energy, which is useful for dogs that are less active than they once were.

How does it support an older dog's mind?

Dried algae, Schizochytrium sp., is included specifically to help support cognitive ability as dogs age.

How do I switch my dog across?

Gradually, over about ten days as shown above. Older digestive systems particularly appreciate a slow transition.

Montego Canine Karoo Senior

I noticed that my 13 year old Basenji was not really enjoying his meals and his coat was becoming a bit dull. I read up about Montego Canine Karoo Senior dog food on Pet Plus website and bought a bag to try. This was about 4 months back. Since the change over my dog's appetite has improved along with his energy level and his coat is sleeker. From this exercise I now know that as our furry companions age it is imperative to adjust their food habits to accommodate their age. It is wonderful that Montego being a locally produced product has taken the initiative to accommodate for the "older dog" and to keep the product reasonably priced. When re-ordering this product has always come fresh and in good time from Pet Plus.

Excellent litter

I changed from a more expensive, clay-based litter, and this is so much better! It is aesthetically pleasing, it prevents any smell, my cats changed very easily and are very happy, and it is very fast-acting.

Cats love it

My cats love it so much, they even lick the spoon that I use to dish it out for them 😂 It also contains eggs which reduces the amount of the protein that accounts for most human cat allergy cases.

Iams healthy adult chicken cat food

My cats love it,
specially my one cat, that have have mouth surgery, is eating Iams. For that I am forever grateful. Thank you so much
