No fillers needed

The advantage of liquid supplements is that you do not need to fill it with fillers to make it into a kibble, powder, or pill. The liquid supplement can consist entirely of substances that have an effect on the dog. This allows you to use high concentrations of herbs and therefore a low dosage per day for the dog.

Easy application

A liquid dog supplement is ideal in application. It can be added to or mixed into all types of food. This way you do not risk the product getting lost in the food bowl or having to struggle with your dog to get a pill in. And if your dog struggles with the taste of a supplement, a liquid product can also be easily administered directly into the mouth using a syringe/pipette.

Better absorption of supplement

Supplements in powder/chunk/pill form need to be broken down in the body before the active substances can be absorbed by the dog. This always takes a little longer for the effect of the supplement to be visible. Liquid supplements have the advantage that they are immediately available to the body. The dog does not need to partially digest this form first, but can directly absorb the nutrients from it. This makes the action of liquid dog supplements faster and more effective.
