Ingredients:
Desiccated Liver - The ultimate in palatability! The fresh, natural flavor of real liver is wonderful for the finicky eater! Supplies iron and B vitamins. Just add water to make a Grrreat Gravy that Dogs Crave!
Norwegian Kelp - A natural seaweed - a rich source of trace minerals including iodine, necessary for proper glandular function and metabolism. An excellent source of vitamins A, B1, B2, C, and E. Aside from nourishing the glands, these vitamins are beneficial for maintaining overall good health and are vital to sustain the proper growth of bones, a healthy heart rate, a sound central nervous system, and the assurance that muscles stay firm and strong. Norwegian kelp grows deep in the ocean, mostly in cold waters, so it contains the purest of valuable nutrients from the ocean floor. Supports healthy skin pigmentation and coat highlights.
Amino Acids & Enzymes - A wide array of naturally available Amino Acids and Enzymes helps the body to maintain healthy hormonal balances and to fortify a resilient Immune System. Offers support for pets with seasonal allergies.
Nutritional Yeast Cultures - Support the maintenance of healthy skin and a full, luxurious hair coat which may minimize the occurrence of excessive shedding and dry skin. Provide proteins, zinc and biotin. Best source of B vitamins. Most companies use cheaper brewers yeast which can be a combination of hops, corn, grains, wheat, etc.; all by-products from the brewery. Many animals have grain sensitivities, and brewers yeast may further aggravate an allergy condition in certain animals. With nutritional yeast cultures, grown and harvested from a veggie source, NO grains are present at all. Something to think about when reading ingredient labels.
Flaxseed - Provides essential omega fatty acids. Most absorbable vegetable fatty acid for the canine. Rich in omega 3 fatty acids, alpha-Linolenic acid, fiber and lignans. Helps maintain healthy, shiny fur and soft skin.
Lecithin - A rich source of choline, utilized by the body in the production of acetyl-choline, a neurotransmitter essential for normal, healthy nerve and brain function. Supports healthy liver function.
Garlic - Awesome ingredient that does so much for the body! Garlic contains allicin, a powerful antioxidant, helpful in supporting healthy immune and cardiovascular systems.
Calcium Citrate - Calcium is best absorbed in an acidic environment, hence calcium citrate is the best absorbed supplemental form of calcium - it does not require extra stomach acid for absorption. Intended to provide nutritive support for healthy bones, teeth and nerve function.
Lactobacillus Acidophilus - Promotes friendly bacteria in the intestinal tract thereby encouraging efficient digestion which may reduce the occurrence of flatulence.
Feeding Guidelines/Instructions for Use:
NUPRO Natural Dog Supplement is formulated as a powder, and is not a concentrate, which allows it to be easily assimilated into your dog's system and digested with your dog's food. Whether you use commercial dog foods, home-cook for your animals, or feed the B.A.R.F. diets, NUPRO All Natural Dog Supplement supplies all the essential nutrients required for the supplementation of special diets.
NUPRO may be mixed with water for a great-tasting liver gravy or added directly to your dog's food. NUPRO is recommended to be administered during or after your pet has eaten. Daily dosages may be divided between AM and PM.
NUPRO is designed for your dog to initially be given these greater dosages for 2 to 3 months in order to allow the product to effectively work to first detoxify and then to build and support a healthy immune system. Following this initial period, dosages may be decreased to one-half of these amounts for daily maintenance.
1 Pound Small Breed Formula: This container contains a smaller size scoop (equal to 1 teaspoon), compared to the other size containers of NUPRO for the convenience of measuring proper daily amounts for use with smaller breed dogs. The Small Breed Formulas (both the Original "Gold" and the Joint Formula) are the same product as the larger size containers. The only difference is the size of the included scoop.
