As the inclusion of supplements in animal diets receives an increasing amount of scientific attention, the newly announced guide from Dog Insider aims to keep pet owners up to date about the latest ways in which supplements can help keep dogs healthy.
Data from the American Kennel Club indicates that the addition of vitamins, minerals, and probiotics to a canine diet can help reduce symptoms for a number of conditions, including arthritis, heart disease, indigestion, and skin issues in dogs. The team at Dog Insider notes that knowing when - and when not - to give a pet dietary supplements can be important for maintaining optimal health.
“Vitamins and supplements are among the best ways to ensure your pup gets all the nutrients they need,” says a spokesperson. “But understanding which supplements are suitable for your pet can be tricky, which is why we break it down for you.”
The guide covers some of the scientific principles behind common components in supplements, including glucosamine for improved joint function, probiotics for better digestion, omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids for healthier skin and coats, folic acid, magnesium, iron, and amino acids.
Readers will also learn some important considerations for deciding if a supplement is needed in a dog’s daily diet, with attention to different breeds, age, health history, quality standards for individual products, and consultations with veterinarians.
Some common risks of vitamin and mineral supplements are listed, such as potentially adverse reactions over a sustained period of time, the inclusion of additives or preservatives that may be harmful, and pre-existing health conditions in dogs that may be exacerbated by certain supplements.
The experts at Dog Insider also offer tips for gauging the quality of a supplement, such as looking for independent testing results from the National Animal Supplement Council (NASC), or similar, as well as choosing supplements that have been specially formulated for specific breeds, sizes, ages, and activity levels.
