Dog Supplements

A nutritional supplement is a concentrated form of an ingredient added to a pet’s diet to boost nutrition and enhance a pet’s health or wellbeing. Supplements provide and bolster essential, but often hard-to-come-by ingredients in your dog’s diet. These may not be necessary for every dog, but for some dogs, they can really help improve their quality of life. Supplements are often used to treat the following:

• Joint and mobility
• Digestive and immunity
• Skin and coat
• Allergy relief
• Heart health
• Behavioral problems
• Antioxidants and more

“Healthy dogs who are eating high-quality, nutritionally complete, and balanced dog foods won’t benefit from most nutritional supplements, particularly vitamins and minerals that are already present in their diets at appropriate levels,” says Dr. Jennifer Coates, DVM,
