Muscle support for senior canines

  There are several reasons why people might want to obtain muscle support for dogs. This may be necessary for dogs as they grow older and a contributing factor to muscle deterioration is that they tend to exercise less than a puppy would.

Dogs that work in specific fields also need to stay in peak condition. For example, dogs in the police force or private security companies need to always be ready for potentially strenuous physical activities.

It's important for you to supply your dogs with sufficient amounts of protein each day. Their veterinarian can recommend the quantity that's appropriate for their breed, age and working conditions.

Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, vitamins and antioxidants also help to support healthy muscle tissue. Some supplements also contain plant-based sources of protein such as kelp which are rich in amino acids.

Hawthorn and digoxin in dogs

Hawthorn should not be given to dogs that are currently taking digoxin. Digoxin is sometimes prescribed to dogs that have congestive heart failure.

While hawthorn can be helpful in cases where a dog has mild to moderate congestive heart failure it should not be used if a dog is currently taking digoxin. Hawthorne interacts with digoxin, so it increases the availability of digoxin in your dog's blood. This can lead to digoxin toxicity.

Cat nutrients for energy

   Cats require essential nutrients if they're to live a healthy life. Your cat's diet must consist of protein.

Protein is broken down into amino acids. When your cat's body has what it requires for all of its essential needs, it uses excess protein for energy.

Your cat also requires fat for energy but this should not be given to them in excessive amounts. Cats can also utilize carbohydrates although they don't need carbohydrates in their diet.

All cats need to have a diet that  give them essential amino acids to rebuild muscle, support heart health and for other purposes.
