Healthy Dogs on a Budget: MUST-HAVE SUPPLEMENTS!
This video discusses budget-friendly supplements to boost your dog's health.
Here's a breakdown:
- Raw Meaty Bones: These are inexpensive and beneficial for joint support, dental health, and provide calcium, glucosamine, and chondroitin [00:05].
- Eggs: Packed with vitamins, minerals, and protein, raw eggs with the shell provide extra calcium and can help with hydration, especially for dry-fed dogs [01:18].
- Natural Probiotics: Brewers yeast can regulate blood sugar and act as a probiotic, while slippery elm and marshmallow root can aid digestive issues [02:14].
- Turmeric: This natural anti-inflammatory can be sourced from health shops and may support joint health [03:34].
- Fiber: Chia seeds (soluble fiber) aid digestion, while pumpkin paste and furry items like rabbit or lamb ears (insoluble fiber) are also beneficial [04:24].
- Salt: A pinch of good quality salt can replenish electrolytes in active dogs, especially in high temperatures [06:01].
- Leafy Greens & Berries: Pureed seaweed, spinach, and berries provide antioxidants, but should be preprocessed for better absorption [06:46].
- Salmon/Fish Skin: An alternative to oils, fish skin is rich in Omega-3s for brain function and coat health [07:55].
The video emphasizes using whole foods as supplements and transforming food into nutrients for dogs [08:41].
