The number may not be as high when it comes to pets, but dog supplements and vitamins for dogs are still a popular choice among many pet parents who only wish for their canines to live a long, healthy and comfortable life.
Dogs at all stages of life, from puppies to senior dogs, may benefit from certain types of supplements for dogs. The most popular dog supplements known to pet parents today usually those that assist dogs with joint support, dog's mobility and canine arthritis.
There's a multitude of other dog supplements and vitamins for dogs that can be used to potentially prevent a variety of health issues. However, there's currently no scientific evidence that any supplements (for human or animal consumption) are effective.
For those curious how holistic veterinary medicine works, we've put together a very extensive guide on Holistic Dog Health. You can find many answers to your questions about different types of alternative medicine, holistic pet care and dog supplements.
In the same vein of light, I also encourage you to familiarize yourself with the other side of this argument: scientific research and the important of factual evidence when it comes to pet health care. This approach is called Evidence-based Veterinary Medicine (EBVM).
