Healthy, Human Grade Ingredients Plus Essential Vitamins and Chelated Minerals Flint River Ranch dog food for senior and less active dogs is made with lower fat and calories. The Senior Plus Formula is made with the same wholesome ingredients as the Senior and Mature Adult Oven-Baked Kibble PLUS added Glucosamine and Chondroitin Sulfate that helps to maintain healthy cartilage in older, mature dogs. The Flint River Ranch Senior PLUS formula will:
Senior Plus is specifically formulated as a functional food source of Glucosamine and Chondrointin Sulfate - rather than the traditional oral pill form - that may function to inhibit cartilage degredation by helping to stimulate the body's ability to produce more glycosaminoglycans (GAG's). The cartiledge make up of the Senior PLUS formula may help with the hydration of joints because of the polyanionic characteristics, thus the lubrcation needed in joints for proper function. It is not a substitute for professional treatment, but rather a supportive means to assist with canine discomfort caused by Hip Dysplaysia, Disc Disease and Osteoarthritis.
There is no need to wait for symptoms to become pronounced - or even to appear. Start using Senior PLUS now. Senior PLUS with added Glucosamine & Chondroitin can act as a preventive .... and can stop the progression - oft times will actually reverse - the damaging effects on the joints. Nothing has been spared with the quality ingredients, blending and the oven-baking manufacturing process. The premium quality chicken, lamb, fish, whole ground grains, flaxseed, dried whole egg, lecithin, kelp, alfalfa, chelated minerals, natural tocopherols (antioxident), along with probiotics and digestive enzymes synergistically provides the very finest diet for the more mature dog. Like all of Flint River's Kibble, the Senior PLUS Formula is baked under carefully controlled conditions and proper temperatures. This unique baking process changes the hard to digest molecules of "raw" starches into easily assimilated dextrines. This process acts as a "pre-digest" of the kibble food, resulting in less strain on the digestive system and produces a greater degree of food absorbtion ... resulting in better nutrition and digestibility for your pet. Made with the finest "HUMAN GRADE" ingredients, this all natural dog food is the ultimate in premium nutrition, made with the same wholesome, fresh ingredients that you would feed your family. Your dog stays healthy and active with Flint River's superior formula without any suppliments or adjustments. Oven baked is food in its natural state and like all natural things, the baking process creates slight color variation. You have Flint River's guarantee that their ingredients formula is "fixed" and will never be substituted or compromised. It's stated on every bag! FEEDING GUIDE: Because Flint River Ranch Oven-Baked Kibble is high density, you can feed at least 20% less than other dog foods. The food is very rich and highly digestible in the dog's system. Care must be taken not to over-feed. Because the food is concentrated, a standard 8 ounce cup holds 4.2 ounces of food. This compares to an average of 3.3 ounces in most extruded foods.

Stimulates the secretion of joint fluid & increases viscosity. It also absorbs the enzymes which naturally break down joints. Has powerful anti-inflammatory action on connective tissue diseases & has the ability to regulate immune response. back Glucosamine: (glū kō sa mēn') A natural substance that provides the building blocks needed for the body to repair and make cartilage, ligaments, tendons, bones, eyes, nails, and heart valves. It is made by the body from glucose and the amino acid glutamine and is also available in supplement form. The greater the amount of glucosamine, the greater the amount of proteoglycans (water-holding molecules) available to help maintain healthy cartilage. This supplement is believed to ease osteoarthritis pain and stiffness and to have no known serious side effects. back Glycosaminoglycans (GAG's): (glī kōs a mē nō glī kăn) Important proteins in a cartilage that bind the water in the cartilage matrix. back CHONDROITIN SULFATE A & C - GLUCOSAMINE The most common problems dogs encounter as they age include osteoarthritis, rheumatism, schleroderma, and arthritic diseases. Genetic disorders include Elbow Dysplaysia, Herniated Disc, Myasthenia Gravis, Degenerative Myelopathy, Osteochondritis Dissecans, Panosteitis, and Leg-Calve-Perthes Disease. Signs include pain, lameness, reluctance to climb stairs, stiffness, joint distortion, wobbly and uncoordinated gait. Different practitioners favor different combinations of treatment from herbs, homeopathic preparations, nutrition, acupunsture, chiropractic therapy, surgery, and medication to help manage the pain and inflamation. Emphasis should be on a good diagnostic work-up before initiating any treatment. Management of the patient's pain and stiffness is essentially management of the arthritis, as nothing can be dne to correct the underlying problems of juint laxity or to reverse the degeneration of the bones. On the other hand, alleviating the inflamation and the pain of arthritis without the negative side effects is often enough to restore function to the joint and a meaningful quality of life. Cartilage-derived mucopolysaccharides as glucosamine and chondroitin sulfates A and C have been found helpful in relieving inflammation and may even reverse the degenerative process in some dogs. It does this by nourishing the cartilage and increasing viscosity of the synovial fluid - the joint's lubricating system - therby reducing friction and pain. Glucosamine and chondroitin sulfates attract fluid into the joint's cartilage system and help the body repair damaged joints while keeping the cartilage destroying enzymes under control ... equal or better results than anti-inflammatory drugs. Mucopolysaccharides are being perscribed increasingly by conventional as well as holistic veterinarians. In tablet form of 150 mg, 100 tablets can be extremely expensive. Flint River Ranch has been active in research on a natural source of Chondroitin and Glucosime (patent pending) that stimulate the immune system and acts as angiogenesis inhibitor - may help improve joint flexibility and increase mobility and support of healthy joints. Currently Flint River Ranch offers Chondroitin Sulfate nd Glucosamine products in two forms:
