There's something similar to this formula for younger dogs? My year old dog, who is on the pro plan formula with the shredded bits, likes his senior friend's Bright Minds food better than he likes his own.

Answer by Shell13Jan 10, 2026
It’s probably fine to feed this food to your year old dog as it has ample protein and fat. Purina makes so many great formulas! But please check with your vet to be sure this would be Ok.

What size of dog (Toy/Small/Medium/Large) is this recommended for?

Answer by ChewyFeb 23, 2018
This formula is recommended for senior dogs of all breeds.

How many cups are in the 30 lb bag?

Answer by ChewyJan 25, 2019
There's approximately 20 cups of kibble in the 5 pound bag, 64 cups of kibble in the 16 pound bag, and 120 cups of kibble in the 30 pound bag.

I thought garlic was bad for dogs and this has garlic oil in it.

Answer by ChewySep 15, 2020
When used in small amounts, garlic can help support the immune system and liver. It helps the cardiovascular system prevent blood clots, and reduces cholesterol/fat build up in the blood and heart. It also aides in the fight against bacterial, viral, and fungal infections, and increases the rate of killing off parasites. Garlic also helps increase the palatability of products.

Eh it’s ok

We decided to switch from regular pro plan chicken and rice to this as our beagle is turning 12 this year. She will reluctantly eat this but looks very disappointed when she sees this in her bowl. She will try everything to not have to eat this including begging for treats the whole day. We will be switching back to regular pro plan as our beagle who will eat just about everything including broccoli and rabbit poop doesn’t want to touch this with a 10 ft pole. It was worth a try.

Wow, this actually works; also, a link to Purina science

Our 9-year-old terrier was having cognitive and anxiety issues on a daily basis. It was like our sweet dog turned into a raging teenager 3 times a day. We did blood tests and vet consultations and tried other behavioral remedies to no avail. We did not want to put her on Prozac! After 2 months on this food she is notably calmer and this food is the only consistent change we made. We are happily stunned. I found a scientific study by Purina that shows the huge degree of research they have done. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8628994/

Unfortunately, I had to stop giving my dog this food because he has mild GOLPP, and it was giving him acid reflux and gas. In the three weeks he was on it, I didn’t notice any positive changes. He doesn’t have dementia, but I was just hoping to keep him a bit younger. Back to American Journey for my 15 year old Belgian Malinois.

At 15 years old, Andy is a beloved Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier and Poodle mix who still brings so much joy into our lives. We’ve been feeding him Purina Pro Plan Bright Mind for over two years now, as our veterinarian recommended, and it’s wonderful to see how much he loves it. Despite his age, he still has the playful spirit of a puppy, reminding us every day of the special bond we share.

I was seriously doubtful that switching to a food specifically for older dogs would make much if any difference in my dog. But I have to say I am blown away by the difference in his activity and alertness level. He is much more engaged with the humans in his life, he sleeps less during the day, and is more playful. It may not work for every dog, but definitely made a difference in my 14 year old golden

Last year my dog had a stroke and was still on regular adult food. I switched to this brand (formerly on Fromm) he’s about 10 yo now and still alert and always down to play. I have not seen him slow down yet. I wanted a food that focuses on brain health and my dog gobbles this up.

I bought the Purina Pro Plan (Chicken & Rice Formula) for my older dog, Cozy, who is sick. He has really enjoyed it as has my younger dog, Lily. I'm sure I'll purchase it again in the future. Cozy is very particular about his food and turns his nose up at most dry food. However, he finishes the bowls of Purina that I put in front of him. Thanks, Chewy!

Senior feed

I really wanted my dog to do well on this food , but it just didn’t work. Her ears and paws became red and irritated. I took her off the food and it cleared up.

1st order - 30 lb of Kibble

Good price, delivered on time (actually 1 day early). We've been ordering kibble on-line for a while from another source and it was always delivered packed loosely

Good price, delivered on time (actually 1 day early). We've been ordering kibble on-line for a while from another source and it was always delivered packed loosely in a box that was too large allowing the contents to shift and literally beat their way through the box. The chewy package was sized just right and arrived in great condition making it much easier to handle prior to opening. Price was equal and package was fresh as expected.
