    Dogs Supplements or nutritional supplements are a favorite of many parents who love their dogs. Always worry about the dog's bad growth and health, just like worrying about children. But should dogs take supplements or nutritional supplements? The following is my personal opinion, for reference only.

Which dogs need nutritional supplements? 1. For dogs who are picky eaters for a long time, do not eat dog food, or eat human food and have a very simple diet, it is necessary to supplement certain nutrients, such as vitamins, minerals material, etc.     2. For dogs who are in poor health, frail, and old, because the diet is small, it is easy to cause malnutrition in dogs.     3. Because of the disease, it is necessary to supplement certain vitamins or minerals. For example, for skin diseases, taking vitamin B can be regarded as adjuvant therapy.     4. Dogs who are obviously deficient in certain vitamins or minerals, such as convulsions and pica caused by calcium deficiency.

What are the nutritional supplements and supplements for dogs? 1. Vitamin supplements: such as multivitamin compound powders or tablets;    2. Nutritional: the main function of supplementing protein and various nutrients, such as nutrition paste.     3. Calcium supplements: calcium powder, calcium tablets, etc.     4. Hair beauty: I haven't really studied the ingredients, but there are many kinds of hair beauty nutrition products for the beauty and nutrition of the dog's fur.     5. Supplementary pigments: such as seaweed powder and other things to supplement pigments for dogs.

My personal opinion on dog supplements:    1. The quality of dog supplements or nutritional products is not guaranteed: I have always felt that dog food, supplements, nutrition There is no guarantee of the quality of such things. The imported ones are better. There may be relevant inspection standards when they leave the factory. There are too many domestically produced supplements and nutritional products of various brands. If you look carefully, there are many authorities (veterinary drug monitoring stations, etc.) that do not check. It's not that I'm a foreigner, it's that our pet food and nutrition market isn't quite there yet, and it's a matter of time. But in general, if you want to buy supplements and nutritional supplements for your dog, I recommend buying imported products at a more regular pet store.

2. Most dogs don't need to take supplements or nutritional products: If your dog eats dog food every day, especially good quality dog food, I personally don't think it is necessary to give it to the dog. What supplements or nutritional products do dogs buy, you can choose dog food in a targeted manner, which may be better for dogs than supplements.

3. Nutritional products that can be considered for people: I am talking about the nutritional products that people eat here, such as Shancun, Shierkang, 21 Jinweita and the like, which are supplemented with vitamins and trace elements. Nutrient pills for the main function. Because the quality of these nutritional products is checked by the health department, they can still be trusted. You can give your dog 1/4 to one tablet per day, depending on its weight.

In general, I still don't recommend that the dog seems to be fine, eats well, and supplements it every day. Just like people, medicine supplements are not as good as food supplements. I usually cook something delicious in addition to dog food for dogs. I think it is the happiest thing for dogs.
