Doberman Puppy Supplements

July 31st, 2008 Posted in Doberman Health

Most of your dog’s nutritional needs should be met by the good quality food you provide them. But as an extra reassurance you may wish to give your Doberman adult or puppy supplements. Before you decide on using supplements you should discuss your particular dog’s health with your vet. The vet can also suggest what the proper dosage should be for your dog’s weight. In most cases the average healthy dog can benefit from a multivitamin & mineral and fish oil supplements.

Fish oils supply omega-3 fatty acids that give your dog a nice coat and skin and support their immune system. For large dogs try a dose of 1000mg once a day. Whenever I would give my dogs a fish capsule pill, they seemed to enjoy it as a treat.

For any specific health issues your dog may have it’s best to research that particular condition and what supplements are recommended. If you are considering using less known supplements look for documented research studies to ensure safety. Again your vet is a good resource here, as they should be aware of any new treatments that have been proven effective and safe.
