The ABC’s of Natural Pet Supplements

September 4, 2012 | By More

Natural Pet SupplementsMany of us add natural supplements to our diet to aid our digestion, joint mobility, arthritis, etc.  How about our pets?

Believe it or not, there are wonderful natural pet supplements on the market today that assist your pet in living to his full potential.

I take my palm full of vitamins, fish oils and the like in the morning and my dogs, Abe and Chico, do the same.

The extreme heat in which pet food is extruded (cooked) lends to the loss of many vital nutrients found in food in its uncooked state.  Although, pet food manufacturers add nutrients to the food post extrusion, the inclusion of a natural multi vitamin and/or supplement to address a specific need might give your pet exactly the extra boost he needs.

In fact, giving your pet a digestive aid complete with digestive enzymes and probiotics, will help your pet get the most out of the food you give him.

Supplements are made to enhance pet wellness in a variety of areas.  Therapies to calm, assist digestion, support healthy joint function, detox, omega 3 and more.  They are available as pills, powders, capsules, droplets, etc.  O.k, so where should we begin?

PetAge magazine recently ran an insightful article about this topic and interviewed some of the brand manufacturers.  They also interviewed me for a store owner’s perspective.  Take a look!
