Most of us with pets consider them a part of the family and want them to enjoy the life they have with us to their fullest potential. Whether your family pet is aging and having a harder time getting around, has dry or sensitive skin, gets uneasy with environmental stress like thunderstorms or separation from you, or is just getting older and not as healthy as he or she used to be, True Dose Pets can help. Established in 2008, this local business offers natural human quality supplements for your pets to improve the quality of their lives and yours. I have personally seen the results by using their products and have chosen True Dose Pets as my Planet Pet Pick this month. Available both online and in local pet stores and pharmacies, this is a natural product that is easy to administer and gives great results.
True Dose Pets currently offers four different supplements for dogs and will soon be offering feline supplements as well as a prescription line. The four products currently available are the Joint Care, Wellness, Skin & Coat, and the Calming supplement. The Joint Care supplement is fantastic for any dog of any age that has joint conditions. The highly concentrated formulation of Glucosamine, Chondroitin, and MSM is designed to promote joint mobility and flexibility and help your dog maintain a healthy, active lifestyle. I have used this supplement for our older German shepherd mix and see that he is getting around much better than before. The Wellness supplement supports your dog’s immune system by providing the optimum level of key nutrients and essential antioxidants to eliminate free radicals and help fight the effects of aging. It helps to enhance vitality and maintain optimum health with ingredients of Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and Green Tea Extract. The combination of Fish oil, Linoleic Acid, Vitamin A, Vitamin E, Biotin, Choline, and Zinc make up the Skin & Coat supplement that will help to prevent and manage shedding, excessive scratching, and dull or dry coat, as well as control itchy spots, dermatitis, and skin allergies. This is a great option for all dogs, especially those that have sensitive skin. If you have a dog who suffers from stress due to thunderstorms, fireworks, separation anxiety, boarding, grooming, or some other environmental stress, the Calming supplement is perfect for your pet. The combination of St. John’s Wort, Camomile, Valerian Extracts, Ginger Extract, and Tryptophan helps your dog to maintain a normal disposition and contentment. The benefit is amazing not only just for your pet, but for your family as well.
The best part about True Dose Pets is in the name. All of the supplements have a unique delivery system that allows for easy dosing. I know the struggle of trying to “hide a tablet” in a piece of meat and then having my dog eat the meat and spit the tablet back out. True Dose Pets understands this problem and has created a dispenser that enables you to put the supplement directly on your pet’s food while in the dish. The liquid formulas are delivered accurately and the proper dosage is given using the pump system. The human quality supplements are rapidly absorbed, with no measuring and no hassle. True Dose Pets is working closely with Universities to study the best delivery to companion animals and professionals believe that this method of delivery will be the standard method within the next 5 years due to the accuracy, ease of delivery, and absorption benefits. I have to agree that it does not get any easier.
True Dose Pets is available throughout the United States, online, and at stores in the St. Louis area. True Dose can be purchased locally at Treats Unleashed, Four Muddy Paws, Pet Supplies Plus, and The Medicine Shoppe.
