Complete Guide to Healthy Supplements and Treats: What Your Pet Needs at Every Age
Proper nutrition is the foundation of your pet's wellbeing
Just as we need different nutrients at each stage of our lives, our pets also have specific needs based on their age, activity level, and health condition. In this complete guide, we'll help you understand which premium supplements and treats can benefit your furry companion.
Puppies and Kittens (0-12 months): Building a solid foundation
During this crucial growth stage, your pet needs:
- DHA and Omega-3: Essential for brain and visual development
- Calcium and phosphorus: For strong bones and teeth
- Probiotics: To establish healthy gut flora
- Training treats: Small, low-calorie, and highly palatable
Premium tip: Look for natural treats without artificial colors or preservatives. Simple, recognizable ingredients are always the best choice.
Young Adults (1-7 years): Maintenance and vitality
Adult pets in their prime need:
- Complete multivitamins: To fill any nutritional gaps
- Omega-3 and 6: To maintain a shiny coat and healthy skin
- Glucosamine: Early prevention for joint health
- Functional treats: Options for dental hygiene, weight control, or energy
This is the perfect stage to establish supplementation routines that will prevent future problems.
