Dr. Goodpet’s Guide to Optimal Pet Health: Vitamins, Enzymes, and Natural Care


At Dr. Goodpet, we believe that a healthy pet is a happy pet. Ensuring your dog or cat thrives involves more than just regular meals and playtime—it requires a holistic approach that includes proper nutrition, digestive support, immune system care, and gentle grooming. Here are some tips on how you can enhance your pet’s well-being using science-backed supplements and natural remedies.

 

Dogs, like humans, need a balanced intake of vitamins to support their overall health. Key supplements include:

Vitamin C - even though dogs and cats do manufacture their own, it is not nearly enough in today's stressful world. Supplements that include Vitamin C support immune system functions as well as aiding collagen synthesis, which is important for a number of other bodily system functions.

Vitamin E, which is abundant in our Bena Fish Oil product, protects cells from oxidative damage and supports skin health underneath thick fur coats and is even more important for hairless breeds.

While some commercial dog foods meet these nutritional needs, most dogs may benefit from additional supplementation, especially if they have specific health concerns or dietary restrictions .

Cats are obligate carnivores, which means that their nutritional requirements are somewhat different from dogs and it’s important to understand these differences in order be a good pet parent. 

Since cats have limited ability to convert certain nutrients, such as beta-carotene, into active vitamin A, ensuring they receive adequate amounts through their diet or supplementation is vital.

 

Enzymes for Dogs and Cats: Enhancing Digestive Health
Enzymes are also critically important, because they can play a crucial role in breaking down food into absorbable nutrients, especially for pets that subsist on dry food and other heavily processed pet foods. In pets, digestive enzyme supplements are very beneficial, especially for those with specific health issues:

Pancreatic Enzymes: Used in cases of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI), these enzymes help break down proteins, fats, and carbohydrates when the pancreas cannot produce enough on its own.

Digestive Enzymes and Probiotics: Plant-based enzymes can aid in digestion, reduce food sensitivities, and improve nutrient absorption.

 

Natural Flea Relief: Borate Crystals
Borate crystals can be an effective natural remedy for flea control. When used appropriately, they can help eliminate fleas in your pet's environment. 

Application: Sprinkle borate crystals in areas where fleas are prevalent, such as carpets and bedding.

 

All-Natural Dog Shampoo: Gentle Grooming for Sensitive Skin
Regular grooming is vital for your dog's health, and using an all-natural shampoo can enhance the experience:

Gentle Ingredients: Natural shampoos often contain soothing components like aloe vera, chamomile, and oatmeal, which are beneficial for dogs with sensitive skin.

Chemical-Free: Free from harsh chemicals, these shampoos reduce the risk of skin irritations and allergies.


At Dr. Goodpet, we are committed to providing your pets with the best care possible. By incorporating appropriate vitamins, digestive enzymes, and natural grooming products like our all-natural coconut and jojoba-based shampoo into your pet's reguler routine, you can support their health and happiness.
