Dogs don’t come with instructions. But keeping ’em healthy and active is easier than you might think with dog vitamins.
Regardless of your dog’s breed or age, supporting their active, healthy lifestyle starts with routine vet visits and ends with a nourishing diet—plus lots of walks, a few hikes, some swims, many mental games, and the occasional bout of early morning zoomies sprinkled throughout. Taking care of your pupper’s health isn’t complicated, but finding the time to check all those off can be.
Now, every dog parent has felt that little ache of guilt settle in when they’re late for a walk, forget to schedule a vet visit, or drive past the park with a pupper panting in the backseat. It’s okay; take a breath. Your doggo is as unique and different and quirky and loveable as the rest of ’em. And, keeping them happy, healthy, and active may take a little nuanced approach.
Here, we’ll share some insights from one dog parent to another. We’ll settle your worries and show you how other dog owners find time to support their dog’s active, healthy lifestyle, like scheduling daily exercise and keeping ’em mentally engaged. But first, let’s introduce you to our dog vitamins, our secret for nourishing dietary support. We’ve designed these treats to help fill your dog’s nutritional gaps—an unfortunate downside to common canine diets.
Two Paws Up for Dog Vitamins Like These
The most well-known secret in the pet treats industry is that most kibble lacks essential nutrients for your dog’s daily health. Now, if a couple cups of standard kibble is all your dog gets day in and day out, they’re probably not consuming the essential vitamins and minerals necessary for a healthy, active lifestyle. That’s where our 10-in-1 Multivitamin for Dogs comes in.
10-in-1 Multivitamin for Dogs
Packed with vitamin-rich ingredients, antioxidants, and minerals, our 10-in-1 Multivitamin for Dogs aims to support nose-to-tail health, all in one small, tasty daily treat. These chews use ingredients like colostrum to boost immunity, green-lipped mussels for joint health, and sweet potato for antioxidant support. Plus, we’ve made this supplement with a tasty lamb flavor to entice even the pickiest puppers.
The Secrets to an Active, Health Lifestyle
Below are a few tips we use to keep our own dogs healthy and active. (And yes, these tips feel awfully similar to the ones we follow to keep up with our own health.)
Routine Field Trips to the Vet
Routine check-ups are the most important factor in looking after your dog’s overall health and well-being. A trained veterinarian can discern unique issues, offer tangible solutions, and add a little personalized touch to each visit. Finding the right vet should be at the top of every pet parent’s list of priorities.
Daily Exercise
Now, did you know healthy dogs can sleep for up to 16 hours a day? (Believe it or not, puppies can snooze even longer.) So, what are they to do with the other eight hours of daylight? Daily exercise is vital to your dog’s active lifestyle. This type of exercise exceeds the midday walks. Depending on your dog’s size and energy levels, daily exercise can include fetch, laps around a dog park, hikes, swims, and even extra-long strolls through the neighborhood.
If all that sounds overwhelming, just break it up into more manageable tasks. Aim to exercise your dog twice a week, every other day, or just on weekends. And it doesn’t have to be for hours on end. A couple rounds of fetch, a few extra minutes on your walk, or another lap around the park can be enough.
Ear-Perking, Head-Tilting Mental Stimulation
And when you don’t have time to focus on physical exercise, mental activities can definitely help. Exercise your dog’s mind with obedience training, sniff tests, and cognitive games, like hide-n-seek, food puzzles, and interactive toys. Tasks like these keep your dog engaged during the day, which can help them deplete their energy, making for a calmer pup.
Daily Nourishing Support
Lastly, a daily dog vitamin can help support your pup’s nose-to-tail health. Dog supplements, like our 10-in-1 Multivitamin for Dogs, are designed to bridge the gap left by nutrient-lacking kibble. This supplement uses all-natural ingredients to support a number of areas in your dog’s health, like their immunity, joints, and total mind-body wellness.
