When it comes to caring for our beloved dogs, we all want to ensure that they are receiving the best possible nutrition and health support. With the increasing awareness of pet wellness, more and more dog owners are turning to supplements to help their four-legged friends lead healthier, happier lives.
However, the traditional method of giving supplements in pill or tablet form can be challenging for both pets and their owners. That’s where liquid supplements come in: offering a convenient and effective alternative.
Come with us as we explore the benefits of liquid supplements for dogs and why they might be the perfect choice for your pet’s health needs.
1. Enhanced absorption & bioavailability
One of the most significant advantages of liquid supplements is their superior absorption and bioavailability compared to pills or tablets. When you give your dog a liquid supplement, the nutrients are more easily and quickly absorbed into their system, allowing for faster and more efficient results.
Pills and tablets often have to go through several stages of digestion before the nutrients are absorbed, which can take time and may result in some loss of potency. Liquid supplements, on the other hand, begin to absorb as soon as they enter the mouth, leading to quicker effects and better utilisation of nutrients.
2. MUCH easier to serve!
Anyone who has ever tried to give a dog a pill knows that it can be a daunting task…! Many dogs are resistant to swallowing pills, and even the cleverest hiding techniques (like wrapping the pill in cheese or peanut butter) don’t always work. This struggle can make giving your dog the supplements they need a stressful experience for both of you.
Liquid supplements are much easier to administer. They can be poured directly into a bowl, added to food or even frozen into ice cubes as a refreshing treat. The ease of administration means that your dog is more likely to receive the full dose of the supplement, ensuring they get the maximum benefit.
3. Better for dogs with digestion issues
Some dogs have sensitive stomachs or digestive issues that make it difficult for them to tolerate certain foods or medications. Pills and tablets can sometimes cause irritation in the digestive tract, especially if they are not properly broken down.
Liquid supplements are generally gentler on the stomach and are less likely to cause digestive upset. Because they are absorbed more quickly, they also reduce the risk of gastrointestinal discomfort that can sometimes be associated with slower-dissolving pills.
4. And MOST im-paw-tantly… far TASTIER!
Pills and tablets are unappealing to dogs. Even when hidden in food, some dogs will detect the pill and refuse to eat it. Liquid supplements, however, often come in flavours that are more palatable to dogs, making them easier to give.
Many liquid supplements are formulated with flavours that dogs love, such as chicken or beef, making them more willing to accept the supplement without any fuss. PAWD’s supplement drinks, although plant-based, contain a delicious chicken-ey flavour thanks to a yeast extract. This improved palatability can make a significant difference in ensuring that your dog consistently takes their supplements!
Liquid supplements offer a convenient, effective, and versatile solution for supporting your dog’s health and well-being. With benefits such as enhanced absorption, ease of administration, and customisable dosages, they provide a stress-free way to ensure that your dog is receiving the nutrients they need to thrive.
