Is It Necessary To Give Your Dog Supplements?

This is a question that is divided into two dog owner categories, the first is those that feed an appropriate commercial grade complete and balanced dog food and those that are fed a homemade diet which is usually the raw diet.

If you are a dog owner who falls into the first category it probably isn’t necessary to give your dog supplements, however in saying this do you really know if your dog is getting everything they need from their meal?

However if you are the make at home dog parent then I would highly recommend giving your dog supplements to make sure they are getting the vitamins they need with their meals.

My two dogs are fed a high quality commercial grade dog food with some raw thrown in and this is why I have had them on Wholistic Pet Organics Canine Complete for the past two years.

I am probably contradicting myself here but the bottom line is that a good supplement whether you feed your dog a commercial grade dog food or a raw diet will benefit your dog especially if it is a high quality supplement.

I am going to review a supplement from the Wholistic Pet Organics brand which I currently use for my dogs because for me it is the only complete all in one health supplement and I know that whatever they may be missing in their diets will be covered by this supplement.

So Let’s dive in and see why this supplement is rated the number 1 Dog Supplement.

What Is Wholistic Pet Organics

Wholistic Pet Organics has been developed for your dogs long term health and wellness.

When I first started sing this product I noticed a huge improvement in both of my dogs appearance within a couple of weeks.

Both of them had shinier coats and my black Labrador who’s coat was previously fairly dull had started to become very shiny and thicker.

Friends of mine who have had dogs with allergies have said within weeks of adding this supplement to their diet that the scratching and chewing has completely stopped.

Wholistic Pet Organics helps to maximize your dogs nutritional needs with organic probiotics, vitamins, enzymes, fatty acids, and antioxidants to promote a better skin and coat and provides excellent allergy symptom relief and in many cases cure.

What Are Customers Saying?

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty Impressive Considering

I really dislike most negative reviews, as they generally are not helpful.

A lot of them here are a case in point. Your dog didn’t like the taste? Okay, I don’t like raspberries, should I give them a bad review? That is not the fault of the product. Just simply say it didn’t work for your dog, or better yet, don’t leave a review.

We did a lot of research before I chose this product, as I cook for my pup. I even had her vet scold me for doing so.

I want the cleanest food for my family and that includes my pets. That means Purina will never enter my door and I have to work really hard to get her values right.

This product supports that goal. I am fortunate that Freyja likes it. It is easy to use, although it can be messy if your dog blows while eating, as it is a powder. While not a bargain, it does have a fairly affordable price point. Overall I am pleased.

5.0 out of 5 stars I understand the cancer won’t go away but the change in his condition was dramatically better in just a week

Purchased this to complement the natural food change for four dogs (3 frenchies and one pit bull with incurable cancer).

My pit got this simply because everyone else did. I had an unexpected result.

Our pit with cancer had bald patches, dry flaky skin and his entire belly section was full of bumps and red and he was licking his feet.

The only real change for him was this powder. His bumps are gone, his coat is shiny and no hair missing and no flakes or feet licking.

He seems to have pep back in his step. I understand the cancer won’t go away but the change in his condition was dramatically better in just a week.

1.0 out of 5 stars I purchased this item based on the excellent reviews it received

I purchased this item based on the excellent reviews it received.

Unfortunately, I did not have the same experience as the majority of other reviewers.

I gave this to my boxer, who is turning 8 in a couple of months. She has no health problems and I figured adding a multivitamin to her diet would be good for her.

The first couple of days she was a little gassy, but I was almost expecting that because she has a mildly sensitive stomach and it takes her a bit to adjust to a dietary change.

We stopped adding this supplement to her food because she started experiencing severe diarrhea (woke me up at 3 am to run outside and spent the following day running in and out of the house).

I could not think of anything else that might have been causing the symptom. She has been off this supplement for 2 days now and is much, much better (still not 100%).

Now I will be looking into getting a different multivitamin for her. Whatever is in this supplement did not agree with her stomach at all.
