THE SECRET TO A DOG’S
UTAH, AGE 17 Typical Lifespan: 12 years
LONG AND ACTIVE LIFE EUKANUBA FUELLING DOGS THAT EXCEED THEIR BREED’S TYPICAL LIFESPAN
Every day you spend with your dog is special. When your dog is healthy and happy, so are you. That’s why, like you, Eukanuba is dedicated to giving your dog as many healthy happy days as possible – even beyond your dog’s average lifespan.
EXTRAORDINARY LIFETIMES
Meet Utah, at 17 years old, Utah is one of a number of dogs that experienced long healthy active lives, well beyond their average 12 year life expectancy. Like Iowa; a 17 year old who loves to play fetch and Clown; a 16 year old tug of war champion.
They are a group of 39 Labradors, the stars of 10 years of observations* made by Eukanuba in its state-of- the-art pet care centre on the impact of nutrition
on canine health and longevity. The results were unprecedented – nearly 90%* of the Labradors
fed Eukanuba, together with receiving appropriate care lived beyond the breed’s typical 12 years life expectancy.
Experts believe this has rede ned what successful ageing looks like as the results are unparalleled. The ‘Long Life Advisory Council’, a panel of globally renowned veterinary scientists said:
A BODY READY FOR ADVENTURE...
REGARDLESS OF AGE
Yet, whilst it’s proud to enable you and your dog to spend more time together than your dog’s average lifespan, Eukanuba believes that’s not enough. It’s about healthspan as well as lifespan meaning more healthy, active and happy times together. EUKANUBA with appropriate care, can help you and your dog enjoy your favourite games for as long
as possible.

As a veterinary surgeon, I would expect a Labrador, like Utah, Iowa or Clown, to show serious signs
of ageing at around 8 or 9 years old. When
I saw these dogs that were 15, 16, 17 years old – and they look and move like 9, 10, 12 year olds – you really realise that this study is
