Do you give your dog supplements?

by admin on January 24, 2010

If so, what and why?

I don’t give supplements right now, although I intend to, once we find a dog food that works for all 3 dogs, as well as raw. We give treats that have Glucosamine and Chondroitin in them, which help bone and joint health.

One of my dogs gets Synovi-MSM because she has severe HD and arthritis. (She is also on Rimadyl and a prescription diet.)

A young healthy dog on a balanced dog food should not get supplements such as vitamins or minerals (calcium especially). Dogs with joint problems should definitely get Glucosamine/chondroitin supplements. Fish oil supplements are excellent for joints, heart, and skin health and many dogs benefit from this as well. I use both with my dogs. They are neutraceuticals–very safe and no side-effects.
