Just like us, dogs have different health needs during the warmer months. Increased activity, higher temperatures, and seasonal allergens mean their bodies need a little extra support. That’s why we’ve created this complete summer supplement guide — tailored by age and lifestyle.
Why Supplements Matter More in Summer
- More exercise means more strain on joints
- Warmer weather increases skin and coat stress
- Outdoor exposure boosts allergen and parasite risks
- Travel & activity may cause stress or tummy upsets
Recommended Supplements by Age & Activity Level
🐶 Puppies (0-12 months)
- Multivitamin Treats: Build a strong foundation for immunity and development
- Pre & Probiotic Treats: Support sensitive tummies as their microbiome develops
🏃♂️ Active Adults (1–7 years)
- Hip & Joint Treats: Cushion joints from running, hiking, and outdoor play
- Skin & Coat Treats: Combat sun exposure, moulting, and dry skin
- Pre & Probiotic Treats: Prevent bloating, scooting, and summer gut disruption
🧓 Seniors (8+ years)

- Multivitamin Treats: Maintain energy and organ function as they age
- Calming Treats: Help manage fireworks, guests, and disrupted routines
Mix & Match: Building a Personalised Plan
Most dogs can benefit from a combination of 2–3 targeted supplements. For example:
- Young, itchy dog? → Multivitamin + Skin & Coat
- Older, anxious pup? → Joint + Calming + Probiotics
- Adventure dog? → Joint + Probiotic + Multivitamin
FAQ
Can I give my dog multiple supplements at once?
Yes — as long as dosages are appropriate and products are complementary. Our formulas are designed to work safely together.
How long before supplements show results?
Many pet parents notice changes in 1–3 weeks with consistent daily use, though some benefits (like joint support) build over time.
