DOG FIT by PreThis® CARE senior is a supplementary feed for dogs approximately 7 years of age and older (depending on the breed) and supplements the daily diet with carefully balanced micronutrients. It contains, among other things, hyaluronic acid, vitamins, and minerals, as well as selected nutrients valued in veterinary medicine for their role in addressing age-related demands on the musculoskeletal system.

The micronutrients it contains support the normal function of cartilage, skin, and mucous membranes and contribute to the supply of nutrients appropriate to the dog's needs. CARE senior was developed according to holistic principles and is particularly suitable for dogs whose metabolism, mobility, or cellular function require special attention in advanced age.

CARE large 60 capsules = 64.2 g

CARE medium 60 capsules = 34.5 g

CARE small 60 capsules = 16.2 g

DOG FIT by PreThis® CARE senior: Each can small, medium or large = 60 capsules each = sufficient for 2 months.

DOG FIT by PreThis® CARE senior feeding recommendation:

• Your dog is fed one small, medium or large capsule a day.
• Very light dogs, around 1.5 kg, are given one capsule every 2 days.
• Dogs weighing 50 kg or more are given 2 capsules daily.
• For hygienic reasons, the capsules should preferably be mixed in with the food or hidden in a treat. However, if the dog does not want to or cannot swallow them, the capsule can be pulled apart so that the contents can be mixed into the food or given together with some yoghurt, cottage cheese or liver sausage. As the capsules often consist of additional collagen, we recommend soaking them in water and mixing them into the food, especially with our joint preparations.
• Please store in a cool, dry place away from light.

Our products should be fed once a day. It does not matter whether this is in the morning or evening, together or separately. However, it is important to follow the dosage recommendation and give the product regularly.

Grundsätzlich empfehlen wir bei den meisten DOG FIT by PreThis^® Produkten eine langfristige Fütterung, insbesondere bei besonderen Anforderungen oder im fortgeschrittenen Alter. Die kontinuierliche Ergänzung mit Mikronährstoffen kann einen wichtigen Beitrag zur Unterstützung der normalen Funktion des Bewegungsapparates und Nervensystems leisten – gerade bei Hunden mit höherer Beanspruchung oder altersbedingten Veränderungen.

Ausnahme: VITAL gastro

Bei kurzfristigen Herausforderungen wie vorübergehendem weichem oder wässrigem Kot empfehlen wir VITAL gastro zunächst für etwa 5 Tage zuzufüttern. Die Fütterungsempfehlung orientiert sich dabei ausschließlich an der akuten Phase.

We recommend supplementing your dog with CARE senior from approximately 7 years of age (depending on breed and individual constitution). This supplementary feed was specially developed for older dogs and supplements the daily diet with micronutrients that are valued in veterinary practice for their role in age-related challenges. Thus, CARE senior can contribute to a needs-based nutrient supply – especially during phases of life when the body's demands change.

The onset of effect depends on the type and severity of the underlying disease. It usually takes at least 6 weeks before the first positive effects can be noticed, possibly a little longer. Please be patient, as natural products need time to take effect.

One bag contains 60 capsules and is sufficient for up to 2 months or longer, depending on the weight of the dog. It is similar with powder products, please refer to the product under contents and dosage.

By dividing the food into small, medium and large sizes, dogs can be given the right amount of nutrients to ensure optimal utilization. This prevents dogs from getting either too little or too much of certain nutrients, which can potentially lead to deficiencies or overdoses. A needs-based dosage is important for the health and well-being of the dog.

High-dose food supplements can be pointless in certain circumstances. On the one hand, they can be superfluous in a balanced and healthy diet, as the dog already receives all the necessary nutrients from the food. On the other hand, excessive doses of certain nutrients can even be harmful to the dog.

Another important factor is that the effect of high-dose food supplements has not been scientifically proven and is often only based on advertising claims and the subjective experiences of owners.

Our products are free from undesirable additives, including genetic engineering, animal testing, gluten, fructose, yeast, soya, palm oil, flavourings, sugar, cereals and preservatives. They therefore fulfil the highest requirements for very good feed supplements.

Your dog is initially hesitant to eat food with DOG FIT. In such cases, we recommend the following steps:

• Reduce the amount: If your dog does not accept powder or granular preparations, start with a smaller amount and gradually increase it. Some dogs need some time to get used to the new taste.
  With capsule preparations, it is usually enough to open them and mix the contents with the food. This is not a problem and does not affect the effectiveness, as many ingredients require pre-digestion in the stomach in order to be fully metabolized in the intestines. Since the capsules often consist of additional collagen, it is particularly recommended for our joint preparations to soften them in water and mix them with the food. For very small dogs, we recommend this approach either way - unfortunately there are no mini capsules.

• Mix it with treats: You can also combine the DOG FIT preparations with treats to make the taste more pleasant for your dog. Popular options include liver sausage, cottage cheese and similar snacks.

By following these steps, you can help your dog get used to the supplement while benefiting from the health benefits that DOG FIT offers. Remember, patience is key.

Our range includes pet food supplements.

They are not intended to cure diseases and do not replace a visit to the vet. Pet food supplements are not a substitute for a balanced and species-appropriate diet. They should be stored out of the reach of children, in a cool, dry place and protected from light. The recommended daily intake of supplementary pet food should not be exceeded.

Pre-existing conditions

If your pet already suffers from organic diseases, autoimmune disorders, intolerances, allergies, epilepsy etc. and may also be taking medication due to an illness, it is important to consult your vet before giving your pet supplementary foods. Our advice does not relate to the use of medications and their side effects or interactions. Please also consult the vet who prescribed the medication.

Important to know!

It is important to realise that natural pet foods often need to be given several weeks, and sometimes even longer, before a noticeable effect is seen. As with most natural products, this requires patience and perseverance. It is unlikely that you will notice an immediate effect within a few days or weeks. However, it is important to consider the use of pet supplements in combination with a healthy diet and lifestyle to achieve long-term results.

Painkillers - Please note!

It is important to consult your vet before administering painkillers. Unauthorised administration of painkillers such as aspirin, paracetamol or ibuprofen can have toxic effects in dogs and should be avoided. An overdose or improper use can have serious consequences and jeopardise your dog's health. Please contact your vet to determine the correct painkiller and dosage for your dog.

Feed supplements are available as capsules or tablets. The capsules have clear advantages:

Gelantine capsules consist of additional collagen and cellulose capsules are an additional dietary fibre. We use a vegan rice extract as a filler, which is not possible with tablets, which is why many other manufacturers use magnesium stearate, for example. Furthermore, an exact dosage is guaranteed by the precisely defined amount of active ingredient contained;

The capsules are preferably fed hidden in a treat or mixed in with the food. If the dog does not accept the capsule, it can simply be opened and the contents mixed into the food.
