Product Questions

Q. How do I use a Powder Supplement?

Powders are very easy for your pet to take. They can be mixed with your dog’s usual food or added to a liquid such as bone broth of kefir.

Q. How can I get my pet to take capsules or tablets?

If your pet is struggling to take a liquid capsule whole you can pierce the capsule and empty the contents onto your pets food. Alternatively if it is a harder tablet you could try breaking it up into small pieces or disguising it within a treat such as chicken, cheese, ham or other meat. Please see individual products descriptions for advice on this.
