As an accomplished gymnast, Aly Raisman knows peak performance is fueled by advanced nutrition. But when it comes to her adorable four-legged companion, Mylo, she also understands that providing the right nutrition is essential for unlocking his full potential and keeping him energetic, healthy, and ready for a lifetime of adventure.

“I’ve had a lot of conversations with Mylo’s vet about what healthy nutrition looks like for a dog.” Says Raisman. “A couple of things that they mentioned to me were good quality meat and grains in his diet, which is why I put him on Pro Plan Sport. Not only does he love the taste but it provides him with a lot of nutrition, strength, and stamina so he can stay very active and be on the go.”

After an illustrious career Raisman has continued to stay active—and takes Mylo along for the ride. “It was love at first sight,” says Raisman. “I knew right away that we were supposed to be in each other's lives. And I always joke I don't remember anything before Mylo, because he just has been the best thing that ever happened to me.”

To stay active and healthy, Raisman enjoys long walks, yoga, and eating healthy—and so does Mylo. “When I do yoga, it's funny—he thinks it's playtime.” Raisman says. “So he doesn't always let me do yoga. He kind of gets up, tries to like to lick my face, kiss me, and he’ll try to step all over me—we’re still working on that.”

The three-year-old beagle mix has boundless energy, agility, and intelligence—the hallmark traits of an athlete’s best friend. Soon it became evident that Mylo needed specialized nutrition to support his active lifestyle. That's when Raisman discovered Purina Pro Plan Sport, a highperformance dog food tailored to support active dogs like Mylo with the right ingredients and a blend of protein, fat, and other nutrients.

One of the key reasons Aly chose Purina Pro Plan Sport is its emphasis on real, high-quality ingredients. “When I was first introduced to Purina Pro Plan, I saw that the first ingredient was meat,” says Raisman. “I think that really helps provide him with a lot of strength and stamina. He’s very strong, and he has so much energy. I can also see how much he loves it.”

She noticed that the food is made with real chicken as the primary ingredient, providing Mylo with the necessary protein to support his strong muscles and keep him ready for any adventure that comes his way. The formula is crafted to help support healthy joints, ensuring that Mylo can keep up with his active lifestyle without any hindrance. Pro Plan Sport offers a wide range of high-performance formulas tailored to dogs’ life stage and activity level. That means Mylo can get the advanced nutrition he needs through his senior years. And whether he’s training hard or simply playing hard. These customized options ensure that every dog, like every athlete, can have a personalized nutrition plan.

Aly Raisman's journey with Mylo and Purina Pro Plan Sport exemplifies the importance of proper nutrition in unlocking a dog's full potential and treating her four-legged friend like the champion he is.
