Question
QUESTION: What are some herbs or supplements that you feel are important.  I want something that I can add to their dog food.  I have a 3 year old French Mastiff and a 9 year old french mastiff and boxer mix.  Do you feel tumeric in powder form mix with foods has any benefit for dogs?  Thanks for all your help.

ANSWER: Hi Dan - Well Turmeric is fine if your dogs have arthritis or other inflammation problems.
I use the following with many of my clients :
I have 1000s of folks that I work with each month.

1.  Dogs all can benefit from some ESTER C ( 500 mg) for your sized kids per day - long term :
ESTER C is easy on the belly ( made for humans but dog can take it too)

2.  Just about all my clients take 1-2 NuVET wafers per day - This is one of the BEST vitamin - supplements in the USA - A favorite that KEEPS the vet away - Keeps our pets around for a long time... Quality health and wellness with NuVET-
they make a powder or wafer -
YOUR kids can have 1 1/2 or 2 per day -  long term :
Call and ask them about the 15% off Discount :  Tell them you are working with Pet Nurse Marie - this is all natural and Holistic / not sold in any stores
1-800-474-7044  Give discount code 81098 - Must call in Fisrt orders:
for your review - web site is here:  Again - PlEASE call in for first order -

3.  For a healthy dog - I love to go GRAIN free - My favorited are : Innova EVO : Wellness Core ; and Merrick BEFORE grain -
If you want to go grain free - give your food plus the NEW food and do a 50:50 Mix.
I would do this mix for 3 weeks and then go to grain free-
Or - just continue to feed 1/2 and 1/2 long term.


I hope this has helped-  There are so many things you can add - this is a good start - NuVET and Vit C - And a grain - free feeding program...
NO table foods - Grain free treats, too.


Keep me posted ....if you need any more help- Just ask:

Answer
Did you find the ESTER C ???
Let me know if you start on the NuVET supplement, too?
We can also talk oils, Salmon oil is very good.

Ask the pet Nurse.

***********************

Hi - The Ester C is made in tablets or powder - For your dogs you can buy the 500 mg tablets- Hide them in some cheese, hot dog, or wet dog food ...
JUST one tablet per day - per dog.
VERY good for the body's immune system.

The NuVET wafers are just like a treat - they will take it from your hand.
