What supplements are best for my healthy senior dog's optimal health?

Question

Motis is a senior dog who is in good health condition, however I would like to know what types supplements I can give her in order for she to have optimal health. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Female | unspayed | 12 years and 5 months old

If you are giving Motis a dog food formulated for senior dogs, she will be getting all the vitamins and minerals she needs to be healthy. You can give her a glucosamine supplemental which will help with her joint health, but otherwise no other supplements are needed. Too many vitamins and minerals can be detrimental to her health, so you want to avoid overdosing her on those. I recommend feeding a high quality senior dog food food such as Royal Canin, Hills Science Diet, Purina ProPlan, or Iams. Best of luck.
