Best Dog Treats for Senior Dogs with Sensitive Teeth
Gentle, Nutritious Options to Keep Tails Wagging
As our dogs age, their needs shift — especially when it comes to dog food and dog treats. Dental wear, gum sensitivity, or missing teeth can make it tough for older pups to enjoy the same snacks they once crunched with ease. But that doesn’t mean they should miss out on something delicious!
At Bark with Buster, we’re all about making sure every dog — at every age — enjoys healthy, natural, and easy-to-chew treats. So, we’ve put together our top pick for senior-friendly snacking that’s kind on teeth and big on flavour.
🦴 What Makes a Treat Senior-Friendly?
When choosing treats for senior dogs, look for:
-
Soft or Breakable Texture – Easy on aging gums and worn-down teeth
-
Natural, Limited Ingredients – Gentle on digestion and full of goodness
-
High in Lean Protein – Supports muscle maintenance and overall vitality
-
Free from Additives and Grains – Especially important for sensitive systems
🦘 Top Pick: Air-Dehydrated Kangaroo Crisps
Our Kangaroo Crisps are a game-changer for older dogs. Naturally soft and easy to break, they’re made from 100% Aussie kangaroo, a lean and hypoallergenic protein that’s perfect for dogs with dietary sensitivities.
