We've seen a huge rise in raw feeding, and receive lots of queries about which supplements are best to support raw diets for dogs, so here are some of our top picks…
A raw diet is a great way to feed your dog as nature intended, but it can sometimes be a worry that they aren’t getting all the vitamins and minerals they need, especially if you’re preparing them at home. Luckily, we have some great, all-natural, all-rounder supplements that can help ensure you’ve got them covered.
Keeper’s Mix®
Our Keeper’s Mix® is a firm favourite – perfect for everyday supplementation, with a blend of eight herbs. Naturally high in antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, chlorophyll, fibres and bioactive compounds, it provides the ideal balance of nutrients to help keep your dog in top condition.
Keeper’s Mix® promotes all-round health, supporting vital organs and maintaining natural balance in your pet’s body, as well as encouraging a thick and healthy coat. It’s ideal for all dogs as an everyday supplement, or to provide extra nutritional support for working dogs, animals performing at high levels, or those experiencing increased physical demands.
For dogs that are a little more delicate, we also offer Keeper’s Mix® Sensitive. This gentler formulation still provides all-round benefits, using a blend of seven herbs – five from the original recipe plus two new additions.
German chamomile is well known for its calming and balancing properties, while marshmallow root is traditionally used for its soothing effect on the gut. This makes it ideal for immature digestive systems or pets prone to gut upsets. A milder flavour also means it’s suitable for even the most sensitive palates.
Easy Green®
For all the benefits of eating a bowl of greens, without a spinach leaf in sight, look no further than our Easy Green® powder. It provides a concentrated source of digestible nutrients that are easy to absorb – particularly important as vegetables can be notoriously difficult for pets to digest.
The quick air-drying process helps retain maximum nutrients in a highly digestible form, naturally supporting levels of iron, vitamin C, chlorophyll, calcium, magnesium and antioxidants to help neutralise free radicals. For pets with hot, itchy skin, Easy Green® also offers cooling properties for fast relief.
Omega Star®
Finally, Omega Star® is an excellent way to provide perfectly balanced omega 3 and 6 fatty acids. Containing a naturally balanced blend of omega oils and vitamin E, it nourishes and soothes the skin while supporting coat quality, growth and shine.
Flaxseed oil, blackcurrant seed oil and borage seed oil are all rich in omega 3 and 6, which play an important role in regulating skin renewal, reducing scurfiness, soothing sensitive skin and improving overall coat condition. Vitamin E acts as a powerful antioxidant, helping to maintain the skin’s natural defences.
From strong-smelling tablets to fussy eaters, it’s not always easy to give pets anything extra in their diet. Our resident product expert, Hannah Roy, shares her advice on how to introduce supplements slowly and effortlessly.
