Pro Plan Veterinary Diets NC NeuroCare is a dry dog food formulated to support cognitive function in older dogs showing signs of canine cognitive dysfunction — confusion, sleep disturbance, disorientation, changes in interaction. The recipe targets brain energy metabolism that declines with age.

Medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) provide an alternative energy source that the ageing brain can use more efficiently than glucose — clinical studies show measurable improvement in dogs over 7 years on the diet. Antioxidants including vitamins E and C protect brain tissue from oxidative damage, and arginine supports healthy blood flow to the brain. Suitable as a long-term diet for senior dogs.

Vets prescribe NC when an older dog starts wandering, getting stuck in corners or losing recognition of family members. Owners often see clarity return — the dog who'd forgotten the back door starts asking to go out again. Improvements typically show within 30-60 days.
