Supporting Your Dog’s Digestive Health

Page 1

Some

dogs will eat anything. It doesn’t matter if the object in question comes from the kitchen garbage or the sidewalk — or even is a food item! — they have to have it and down it goes before the words “Leave it!” escape your lips.  Now what? An immediate call to your veterinarian is in order when your dog ingests a non-food item or a potentially toxic edible like houseplants or chocolate, as they could endanger your dog’s health if left alone.


In many cases, though, all you need do is wait for nature to take its course. The question is, what can dog guardians do on their own to prepare and protect their canine scavengers when they swallow something that’s not good for them? You can minimize harm by feeding your dog a high quality, all-natural diet that is rich in the nutrients to strengthen and support the digestive and immune systems..


In those circumstances when it’s allowable for nature to simply take its course, a strong and properly functioning digestive tract will process and expel the ingested item(s) quickly. A strong immune system will protect your dog if the item is contaminated with bacteria (for example, if your dog found it while rifling through the trash can).




These nutrients include alfalfa (which helps with digestive issues and can lessen the impact an associated allergic reaction may have on your dog’s entire system), blue green algae (which supports both immune system and intestinal health), and the herb cat’s claw (which also cleans out the digestive tract and stimulates immune activity).


In addition, Papain, the B-complex vitamins and Vitamins B1, B3 and B6 maintain digestive health, while antioxidants like beta carotene, Vitamins C and E, iron, selenium, zinc, and pine bark provide powerful immune system support. The canine nutritional supplement NuVet Plus from NuVet Labs contains all these ingredients and more, to keep your dog’s digestive and immune systems in optimal health for those times when he just can’t resist that leftover not-sotasty-tidbit in the trash
