7 Signs Your Dog Might Need Supplements
1. Dull or Shedding Coat
If your dog’s coat has lost its shine or you’re finding excessive fur on the couch, that may point to omega-3 or zinc deficiencies.
- Improves skin hydration
- Helps restore coat luster
2. Digestive Trouble
Loose stools, inconsistent appetite, or gas might indicate poor gut balance. Probiotic support can help reset digestion.
- Promotes healthy microbiome
- Reduces inflammation from food sensitivities
3. Low Energy or Lethargy
Sluggishness during walks or lack of enthusiasm for play may mean your dog is missing B vitamins, iron, or adaptogens.
- Supports natural energy production
- Helps tired dogs bounce back faster
4. Joint Stiffness or Slow Movement
If your dog is hesitating to jump or struggling to rise, they may benefit from joint supplements with anti-inflammatory support.
- Glucosamine + MSM formulas improve comfort
- Great for seniors or active breeds
5. Itchy Skin or Frequent Paw Licking
Excessive scratching or paw chewing often indicates internal imbalances. Omega-3s and probiotics can provide relief from the inside out.
- Strengthens immune barriers
- Calms seasonal and dietary inflammation
6. Stress or Separation Anxiety
Nervous barking, pacing, or destructive behavior when left alone might be soothed by calming supplements.
- Natural calming herbs (valerian, L-theanine)
- Works without sedation
7. Senior Slowdown
Older dogs may face overlapping issues: digestion, joints, energy, and immunity. A well-rounded senior formula can make all the difference.
- Tailored blends for aging dogs
- Supports full-body wellness
