Are pet supplements worth it?
It is never a good idea to give any supplements without the recommendation of your vet, because they have the potential to create dietary imbalances, or to cause potentially dangerous side effects.

 

Are pet supplements safe?
Some supplements, such as omega-3s, have been widely tested and are routinely recommended by veterinarians. Others are unproven and could even be harmful. “Since vets do recommend specific supplements regularly, I think many pet owners feel that they are all just fine,” says Joseph J.

 

Do vets recommend supplements for dogs?
For many dogs on an AAFCO-approved diet, supplements are not necessary. However, dogs that have medical conditions or who are predisposed to developing them can benefit from supplements. It's always important to discuss supplement recommendations with your veterinarian prior to adding a supplement to your dog's diet.
