What supplements to give an older dog?
The supplements you choose for your older dog will depend entirely on your individual dog’s needs. However, senior dogs commonly go through certain body changes as they age, like joint mobility issues, dull coat and energy depletion. Our Flexx supplement addresses all these concerns: it promotes mobility and flexibility, helps maintain joints, boosts the immune system, strengthens cartilage, and provides skin and coat support. It’s essentially an excellent supplement for older dogs.
If your older dog is experiencing digestive upset, ProDog’s Digest supplement delivers natural dietary support, whilst ProDog’s range of scottish bone broths are a highly enriching food supplement. Bone broth, such as our beef broth, provides an easily digestible source of vitamins and minerals that naturally support gut and joint health. Additionally, our colostrum supplement provides nourishment that promotes a healthy gut, immune system and ease of movement.
What is the best multivitamin for a senior dog?
Multivitamins for senior dogs should include a combination of several essential vitamins, as well as nutrients like vitamin C to help maintain immune function, zinc to support nutrient absorption, Omega 3’s for brain, joint, skin, and coat health, and amino acids for overall health. Our Boost vitamin supplement includes all of these, and is a terrific way to bolster your senior (or any) dog’s nutrition for their best quality of life.
Do older dogs need more vitamins?
As dogs age they will likely need more support to feel their best, which is where senior dog supplements come in. As joints and bones get older and digestion issues become more common, senior dog supplements can provide the boost your older dog needs to retain their quality of life. Our various dog supplements provide the best options for your senior dog, to support their wellbeing naturally, in whichever area they need it most.
How can I boost my older dog’s energy?
We all tend to slow down as we get older, dogs included. However, you can support your ageing friend through their later years with the right combination of senior dog supplements. ProDog’s Revive supplement for older dogs is a fantastic way to support their energy levels naturally, with its combination of nutrients designed for promoting vitality. Spending more time with your older dog doing the things they love, like training sessions with their favourite natural dog treats or favourite toy, can also help to perk them up.
