Amazing grass:Chocolate green super food arrived.

Amazing greens stuff came today. :) I got it from amazon as they coarse have it for lower amount then the company selling it for.. $32.46 compared to $49.99.

I opened it up to see how it looks the powder is chocolate color since I got chocolate.. I'm thinking it'd be green if I got the original formula.

I tasted tiny bit of the powder and it tasted pretty good.
It comes with a scoop it's a little buried in the stuff.

Coarse today is day one on trying this we'll see if the claims it makes is true or not.

I do like the taste so if anything I'll get it from Amazon as it's lower priced and use to mix with my smoothies to give it a boost.

Especially with mowing season begins I'm going to be the main one mowing the fields which is a lot of work doing 16acres.. We only mow whole thing once a year.

I also got a protein bar for free it's not from amazing grass it's called kind +. I'm not one to eat protein bars, but it was free so I thought I'd try it.


                                             Ingredients of the product.
Yeah it has barley grass, wheat grass, alfalfa, and tons other ingredients.. Does have spirulina which I read is supposed to be good for you.

I seen spirulina and few pet supplements and read about it some..

I had my first cup with dinner.. I mixed it with milk it doesn't taste too bad not super sugary like chocolate milk, but drinkable at least.

I think it be more better blended as a smoothie.

Dinner for me was pork chop, mashed potatoes, broccoli, and carrots yummy.

Saya had 2.24oz lamb kidney, tiny bit of sweet potato, tiny bit of caned dog mix, honest kitchen, and joint supplement. Yummy. Saya loved it of coarse.

Bella had usual kibble and bit of caned dog food mix and sweet potatoes.

Tomorrow she'll get turkey thigh and some organs and caned dog food mix.

30% off on superflex elk velvet supplement

I thought I'd let people know Natraflex is having 30% off on orders. Enter first on the coupon area it'll take 30% off not bad. Works with people or pet kind I believe.

I order one and kinda wished I ordered two of them since 30% off is good deal. ah well.
I'm not sure if it really helps with Saya's joints hard to tell. I figure they wouldn't hurt to try as a preventive..

She will eat them willingly now so no need to hide them in things all the time which is good.

Bizarre foods stir fry!

I made this for lunch today. It's onions, carrots, yellow squash, green peppers, celery and green beans cooked seasoned, and then cooked with 2.24oz of grass fed beef liver and 1 or 2oz of grass fed beef heart also an egg in it too. 

I seasoned it with salt, pepper, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, soy sauce, Sriracha, sesame seeds, bit of Lime juice, and orange juice.

This is from Saya's food I wanted to try heart see how it taste..

It's OK I'd eat it if there was nothing around.  With all the seasonings it actually did taste pretty good. There is enough for lunch or dinner for two or three days..

I'm not huge fan of organs, but beef liver and now beef heart isn't too bad if seasoned right.

I don't like turkey liver though cooked it for training treat for Saya and it didn't taste good.

I like making odd meals and it's probably healthy too grass fed beef.. The yellow squash and green peppers came from my garden too. :)

There is a cantaloupe or watermelon growing in the front yard probably from me putting compost that wasn't  finished composting on a hole where mom removed a small tree..

Smile!
I would have used zuchinni, but the ones growing aren't big enough just yet..

I love growing stuff at the garden pulling weeds can be a pain though..

Rabbits and ground hogs too they ate all my carrots, some broccoli, and radishes.. Saya does good job keeping them off, but she can't be outside 24/7 due to heat, and night..

Ah well at least I know I can't trust dad when he plants things it's me who has to keep it weed free and stuff.. Pepper wax spray helps keeps critters off plants.

Saya's joint supplement has shipped thankfully I ordered it when I did it's now selling for $44 from same seller.. I paid $26 that's good saving!

Velvet elk antler supplement came

Yesterday Saya's new supplement came it's elk velvet antler by Natraflex they make supplement for humans and pets. Supposed to be good for joint health I've been told and seen people suggest it so I figured I'd try it out.

Superflex the name of the pet formula. There is other brands out there, but I thought I'd try this since this brand was recommended.
Here's a bit on why I feed raw and been trying different joint meds.

Saya since I picked her up from her breeder she bunny hopped. The vet checked her on first examination and vaccine shots and he didn't find anything wrong with her knee or hips.

At 6months she got a x ray while she was under for her spay. Her hips and knees looked good I saw the x ray myself.

I continued to be stumped what was up.. 6months I started to venture into giving her raw items she would get a raw egg once a week then. Before that from 8weeks to 5 months she got cooked eggs, caned salmon, sardines, mackerel cooked meat, and caned dog food along with her kibble I'd rotate it each week sometimes she got bit extra.

At 6months she got the raw egg along with her other items.

7months old I kept giving her the caned fish, cooked, meat, caned dog food, raw egg and then I added lamb ribs to rotation. After research I got more into raw feeding and I though lamb ribs be good start to see how she like raw.

She got the lamb ribs with a raw egg and bit of caned fish as a dinner instead of kibble once a week and she did good with it.

8months I plunged full onto raw she was on same kibble as Bella wellness core ocean so I didn't need wait for kibble to get eaten up. I bought a thing of chicken thighs and drumsticks once those were out I got her more and added chicken breast to the mix.

I did chicken for while then slowly added in pork then beef liver, then beef kidney it took while for each new item in slow transition.
I went to my first shiba meet up type thing it was the shiba picnic at Madison WI. I got to meet Pat Doescher from Hi-Jinx shiba inu. She coarse was concerned with way she was walking asked if it was HD or something.

I told her it wasn't and vet examined her and had x ray done to be sure and nothing wrong with her hips or knees. She then suggested maybe it's neurological or with spine?

Once back home we asked the vet and he checked the x rays again and sure enough something was up with spine. It doesn't look too bad and so far she doesn't seem to be in any pain that I can tell.

She runs around and runs up and down hills with no issues.

She can jump up my bed and on fallen trees with no issue..

Second year on raw or maybe when I got back from the shiba picnic I got her chicken feet it supposedly is good source of natural condroitine and stuff. She loves chicken feet so they make yummy treat or snack.
Saya being helpful bringing the trash to me
I been giving her joint health tablet from Springtime I got it for free for buying the bug off tablets.

Saya been taking them and now she takes green lipped mussel supplement supposed to be good for joints as a natural supplement.

So far I like the Green lipped mussel supplement and it is at a good price and should last her for a while she gets two capsules a day I just put it on her plain Greek yogurt or caned fish and she eats it up.
She is on day two on it and I doubt I'll see any improvements in this time. I've been told it took two weeks for it to show.

I might stop giving the Springtime joint health once I'm out and just give the green lipped mussel and elk velvet antler supplement.

I've been giving the joint health one day and the other she doesn't get it.

I don't want to give her too many joint supplements I dunno if too much is good or bad or if one would cancel each other..

I do notice with addition of the green lipped mussel she seems much more active and not too tired even in the heat. Coarse I make sure she always has water around and if it's too hot she is put inside to cool off while I work outside.


120 tablets should last her for 60days which is nice. I gave her one and she tried it and didn't like taste so I crushed it in her bowl and she ate it when I mixed a tiny bit of plain Greek yogurt with it.

The tablets don't smell to bad and she does like deer antlers.. Maybe I'll offer it during evening since she tends be more willing to eat things in the evening.

Ingredients look fine so far I need look it all up though.. I haven't compared other elk velvet supplements yet too..

I might get human kind for myself..

Two a day for dog her size, four for large dog and one for cat..

Green lipped mussel supplement came.

The green lipped mussel supplement came I got two of these to use up we'll see how long it'll last her and if it helps. I might keep supplementing anyways not too expensive for two bottles of it.


Ingredients seems fine. 
Two capsules contain:
Perna canaliculus (Green-Lipped Mussel) . . 1,000 mg
Alfalfa Leaf . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .200 mg
Cinnamon Oil . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .2 mg


Today is day two on it Yesterday she had one when I got it and second in evening I mixed it in plain Greek yogurt.

This morning I gave it to her by mixing it in caned salmon along with her joint tablet and her bug off garlic stuff. she gets the bug off tablet and joint tablet once a day and she'll get the green lipped mussel powder twice a day.


So far she seems to like it she hasn't refused the stuff it has a mussel, clammy oyster smell or something which isn't surprising seeing as it's green lipped mussel.. hehe

It also has alfalfa Leaf in it which isn't bad I don't think I seen it in some dog food I think honest kitchen maybe not I don't feed that or haven't tried it yet so I forgot.


 I dunno if it's worth giving, but the price is good $26 for 180 capsules of it.

I know someone else who gives it and says they like it coarse they also give another joint pill so it might be the joint pill that helped or could be a combo of the two that has helped with the dog's joints.

I plan give it a try and see how it goes.

Saya's morning supplements she gets one green lipped mussel in am, three bug off garlic in am and one glucosamin and condroitin in am and pm she just gets the green lipped mussel powder.

I have to crush the joint tablet and garlic tablet to mix it with the Greek yogurt or caned fish.

She'll eat the bug off garlic on her own, but the joint tablet she isn't fan of it. It's peanut butter flavor, but I guess not enough.

I have wrap it with bit of cheese, peanut butter to get her to eat it so I find it easier to crush in just give with her green lipped mussel also even though she willingly eats the garlic I crush it anyways so she gets it.

I give her one sometimes two where I don't give her garlic tablets.

Yummy crushed supplements, caned salmon and 2.25oz of grass fed beef kidney a meal only a dog would love. haha

This week I plan to get her some beef sweetbread(thymus) been out of it for long while.. I need to be sure I keep it in stock so I can rotate between that and kidney.

I plan to order the velvet elk antler stuff soon to try too.

Green lipped mussel supplement

Sun rising
Saya gets around great, but since she has her spinal injury I worry about her sometimes.

Reason I feed raw is due to it and I'm thankful now I think any other dog I get will be raw fed too It's a dog diet for me.. hehe

Anyways I been meaning to try green lipped mussel supplement to see if it would help with her joints.

She doesn't show signs of being in pain or anything she can run like her tail is on fire! haha

I figure I'd give it a try to see if it helps who knows it might give her more power and she'll feel so much better to walk and run!

She does get around pretty well, but on walks she lags behind some so could be due to fatigue on her feet I don't know.


This is what I ordered FoodScience of Vermont Sea Mussel.
Someone on a raw dog forum I go to use it and they seem happy with it so I thought I'd try it 26$ for two bottles of 90 capsules sure! That's 180 good deal I think plus free shipping.

I'm also going to try Superflex It's a proprietary blend of two natural products, premium-grade velvet antler and American ginseng root.

This supplement is $59 and $54 for auto ship option where they ship to you every month something like that. I never done auto ship before so can't say much on it..


About superflex pet formula velvet antler..
Each supplement tablet contains 500 mg of NATRAflex Premium Velvet Antler and 25 mg of American Ginseng

I ordered the green lipped mussel supplement today and I plan to order the superflex in a few days I'm expecting a book thing on it so I'm being hopeful there is a coupon with it. haha

If not I don't mind paying full price be worth it for Saya's health.

I'll be sure to post when the products come and how Saya likes the taste the superflex is a chewable so we'll see I might have to disguise it ah well she loves caned fish and plain greek yogurt and I got ground meat I can thaw out and mix it in.

If I notice any improvements I'll post too.

Bug off garlic has come part 1 review

The package have Yesterday which was one heavy box! It came with four containers of bug off garlic plus bonus item for spending over $75 or something like that.  I picked joint health chewables to try.

The joint health chewables I got has 90 chewable tablets which according to Saya size she gets one a day. I plan to give these a trial once her current ones are used up. 90 tablets are $24 so getting it free isn't too bad though price wise I dunno I don't buy these types items often.

Package is here!
I got these for $117.30 my mom payed for her's and mine so it wasn't that much like $60 each or so I forgot.

If this works it'll be worth it. Buy one 1,000 tablet jar and get a 1,000 tablet jar free so each dog gets 2,000 tablets.

Here's the ingredients.


Here's the instructions on how much to give.

Also it says to slowly introduce it to them over period of 5-10 day period.
 So far taste wise Saya took to it right away and so far hasn't had issue with eating the bits when I give it to her plain with no food or anything.
Lots of tablets! Smells like garlic too!
Bella my parent's boxer she spit the little piece out at first she is always leary of new treats, but I picked it up gave it to her again and she ate it with no fuss so I guess she likes it.

Her second time taking it I tossed it into her kibble and third I just put it in her dog bowl she seems to have hard time picking it up if it gets on the ground and the bowl helps her get it easier..
The tablets are easily broken into half piece or four small pieces for transitioning on it.

According to guide Saya needs two tablets a day and Bella four. Also says if tick, fleas, mosquitoes, gnats and flies are heavy to double it.

I'll probably stick with normal amounts and up it if bugs get bad.

This how I got it set up so all I gotta do it take a piece and give to her with no issue of having to break a piece put back into the jar and then later on find the broken piece..

While she is being transitioned to the full dose I'll do it like that.

I did same with Bella too her's is upstairs so mom can give the morning dose and I or her gives pm dose.

Saya's jars in my room of coarse.
Saya is kitty size!

I don't know if these work I read people's input from various forums and stuff and sounds like it works good, but never know.

For some dogs maybe it doesn't work so well compared to others.. I dunno.

Once the dogs are fully on it I'll give another impression on it.

So far dogs don't smell like garlic so we'll see..

Saya has gotten cooked ground garlic that has been cooked and grounded with veggies and fruits.

I don't think garlic is as dangerous as onions and if given in small amounts shouldn't harm the dog.
Link to the bug off garlic chewables page.

Coarse I'm not saying to go out and buy this stuff now if you feel garlic isn't safe for dogs then that's fine. I don't want to force things onto people just thought I'd post this on my blog and who knows maybe in a month or so I'll have my opinions formed on this.


From the site "*Please allow time to “build up” in the system. It may take Bug Off Garlic two to four weeks to permeate all tissues."

I live in the country so we do have ticks mainly in the field not so much in the backyard. I think the morning birds eat any that are in the yard because I always see them picking up worms, grubs, and various things could also be we keep lawn mowed and there's never leaf piles and so on.

We also have gnats, mosquitoes, horse/deer flies, and even fleas. Though for some reason the dogs haven't had any issues with fleas. Our cat gotten them once which we took care of right away so it didn't spread..

Ticks, gnats, mosquitoes and deer/horse flies are main issue. Saya does fine with gnats they can't get to her with her thick coat, but Bella the boxer gets eaten up by gnats and horse/deer flies most times she has to go in the house because it's so bad.
We don't leave her out 24/7 or anything we only bring her out when we do yard work, walks and training and stuff. She loves to sun herself and check what we are doing.

So it's sad when she has to go into the house due to the flies and gnats.

We keep the yard clean of coarse always pick up poop two to three times a week and keep any trash well put away and stuff..

So I hope the bug off garlic helps with the fly and gnat issues.

I'd like to add few links too on garlic.

Many say it's bad many says it's good. So hard to decide! Grr!

Anyways..

Natural health remidies

why shouldnt you feed your dog-garlic

Book has info on garlic uses Dr. Pitcairn's New Complete Guide to Natural Health for Dogs and Cats
 

http://www.amazon.com/Pitcairns-Complete-Guide-Natural-Health/dp/157954973X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1331181112&sr=8-1

Coarse they're going to have garlic is good on their site since they sell product with garlic in it..

Springtime's website

Sojos pet mythbusters

Most links I posted seem more for garlic.. I know there is a article on garlic against it right now I'm tired and need sleep.

Many vets say garlic is bad holistic ok..

I think it should be fine as long I don't over do it. I don't plan to double dose on it or anything.

Be sure to do your research on this before trying it.

Benefits of coconut oil?

Coconut oil
I have been reading different articles and posts made by dog owners about coconut oil it supposed to be really good for dogs and humans. I decided to try it got one from walmart it's organic and virgin all that stuff.

It's best to get the cold pressed, unrefined, virgin and ideally, organic oil.

Brands that contain hexane is not good because it's a chemical used in mechanical extraction process I'm not sure why, but I prefer the cold pressed and organic is always good..

The one I bought is from walmart it's $10 forgot how much it had, but I tried a little bit of it and it tasted good had a hint of coconut in it. The one at walmart I found in the vitamin section.

Here's a few links with benefits of coconut oil
Coconut oil - All is Well

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/dr-mercola/coconut-oil-benefits_b_821453.html?

Nice video on the benefit of coconut oil

E how What Are the Benefits of Coconut Oil for Dogs?

The Health Benefits Of Coconut Oil

http://www.natural-dog-health-remedies.com/coconut-oil-benefits.html

Apparently can be used as toothpaste on your dogs toothbrush, it improves digestion and nutrient absorption, helps control body and breath odor, aids healing of digestive disorders like inflammatory bowel syndrome and colitis, contains powerful antibacterial, antiviral, and anti-fungal agents that prevent infection and disease, prevents and treats yeast and fungal infections, including candida, promotes normal thyroid function, helps prevent or control diabetes, aids in arthritis relief, reduces allergic reactions, improves skin health and hair condition, disinfects cuts and promotes wound healing, and is an antioxidant, 50 times more potent than Vitamin E

According to this site and few others.


"Dogs usually like the taste of coconut oil, so it can be added to their food at any meal. Some dog parents just let their dogs lick the oil off from a spoon. How much coconut oil to give to a dog depends on the size and health condition of the dog, As a general guideline, give about 1 teaspoon per 10 pounds of body weight per day. However, remember not to start with the suggested amount. You need to add coconut oil to your dog's diet a little at a time in divided doses. Because coconut oil kills harmful bacteria, viruses, and fungi, the burden of removing dead organisms can trigger symptoms of detoxification. Too much coconut oil at a time may also cause diarrhea and greasy stools in dogs. As a start, try giving 1/4 teaspoon/day for small dogs or puppies and 1 teaspoon for large dogs, and gradually increase the amount every few days. Reduce the amount if your dog has diarrhea."

Here is Dr. Karen Becker video on coconut oil.



I'm not sure if the benefits is true or not, but worth a shot. Saya likes the taste and coarse Bella likes anything I give to her.

I plan to slowly work up both dogs and myself to the amount we need..

I'll probably use it for fruit smoothies for myself. Saya ate it off my finger with no issue sniffed it for a second and then licked it right up usually it takes her longer to like new things.

I plan to buy the Nutiva brand to try next seems good for the price.

nutiva coconut oil from amazon 

The Nutiva Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil, 29-Ounce Jars (Pack of 2) seems to be a good price for amount you get..


I found the one in walmart in the vitamin section and I believe GNC has it probably any vitamin shop or health food store will have it.

Just be sure it's the virgin, organic and unrefined kind. Refined kind might have chlorine and hexane.

I rather get the unrefined kind better be safe then sorry.

I'll post more if I find anything different from adding this to me and the dogs diet..

Spectrum naturals is another brand someone on the dog forum I go to use and it seems like good brand too.

I guess any brand is good as long as it's the right kind.

I'll be sure to slowly introduce it to see how it goes.

I might try making brownies with it or a stir fry might be good.

I'm not saying to go out and buy coconut oil and give to your dog I'm just writing this because I found it interesting.

Saya only gets vitamin E twice a week, cranimal very berry and vibe every day and sometimes I skip a day, but I try to give it every day.

She doesn't get fish oil because Saya gets raw smelt, saury, and caned sardines, mackerel and salmon she also gets raw mackerel sometimes, but I haven't gotten any more right now.

So I feel she is fine and don't need fish or salmon oil supplemented.

I plan to try this coconut oil to see how it goes.

I'm not sure if coconut oil would replace fish oil? I know they both have different vitamins and minerals or whatever so I'd probably give one one day and one the other or something like that I wouldn't replace one for the other.

The coconut flakes in backing section is most likely not good for dogs has sugar added to it. I'm sure health food places have coconut flakes natural and not sugar added.
I plan to also try Green Lipped Mussel Powder supposed to be good for Rheumatoid Arthritis, Bursitis, Ankylosing Spondylitis, Sports Related Injuries, Lyme Disease, Inflammatory Skin Conditions, and Connective Tissue Repair.

I got this info from hare-today.com website they recently just started carrying this.

I think any health food place would sell it and human grade would be fine coarse I'll check to be sure.

I plan to check it out soon to see if they got it.

I think this would also be a good supplement for Saya.

She is actually doing much better energy and health wise and she seems to be even spunkier and more happy lately.

Well before she was happy, but it seems she is even more playful. Maybe it's the coming of fall and winter that got her so energized over it.

Well I'm off to bed I'll be sure to say if I notice anything with her fur, teeth or whatever.
Saya says"Good night and hurry up and turn the lights off!

I added this link to the whole dog journal with info on coconut oil pretty much same info..

Cranimals

I've been seeing the pouches of cranimals at the pet store I go to first thought it was a treat since that's where it is turns out it's a supplement supposed to be good from what I've read.

They have five cranimal varieties, original, gold, very berry, vibe, and sport. They also have dog biscuit called ZenDog calming biscuit.

Original, Very Berry, and Gold
Original's description from the site.

CRANIMALS™ ORIGINAL is made from certified organic cranberries. Cranberries contain proanthocyanidins (PAC's) which inhibit the adhesion of Escherichia coli, the bacteria responsible for 80-90% of urinary tract infections. CRANIMALS™ ORIGINAL is especially suited for animals with poor kidney function or urinary tract problems. PAC's may support dental health by discouraging the growth of plaque on teeth and gums. The phytochemicals found in cranberries are also anti-carcinogenic, anti-angiogenic, anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, anti-viral and antioxidant. CRANIMALS™ ORIGINAL can be easily added to your pet's daily diet to boost health and vitality! Cranimals Original is also recommended to help prevent the recurrence of struvite stones.

INGREDIENTS: Certified organic cranberry extract

Good for UTI/Dental

For Cats, Puppies, and Dogs

Very Berry description.

CRANIMALS™ VERY BERRY is made from certified organic blueberries, cranberries, and red raspberries, three of the world's healthiest fruits. Scientific studies show that the polyphenols in these berries have anti-carcinogenic, anti-angiogenic, anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, and anti-viral properties. Anthocyanidins found in cranberries and blueberries naturally support urinary tract and oral health in companion animals. Red raspberries are particularly enriched in ellagitannins, compounds demonstrated to destroy various cancer cells. CRANIMALS™ VERY BERRY delivers a synergistic combination of antioxidants, to help mop up harmful oxidants called free radicals, which damage cells, tissues and arteries, leading to chronic disease. CRANIMALS™ VERY BERRY can be easily added to your pet's daily diet for a powerful burst of extra antioxidants!

INGREDIENTS:Certified organic cranberry, blueberry and raspberry extract.

Good for antioxidants

For Cats and Dogs

Gold description.

CRANIMALS™ GOLD combines our Original cranberry extract with DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid), a long chain Omega 3 fatty acid extracted from uncontaminated microalgae. DHA Omega 3 is an anti-inflammatory substance important for neurological, skin, brain, eye, and heart health in mammals and is used up by animal metabolism immediately, in contrast to short chain Omega 3 acids (e.g. [ALA] Alpha Linolenic-acid found in flax oil). In fact, it may take up to 37 grams ALA’s (found in flax) to make the same amount of DHA found in 1 gram of Cranimals Gold. CRANIMALS™ Gold contains the antioxidant beta carotene - for healthy eyes, skin, membranes and immune function; choline - for proper cell signalling, mental acuity and joint health; and anthocyanidins - for urinary tract health. CRANIMALS™ Gold packs a powerful punch!



Ingredients:Cranberry extract powder, seaweed meal powder
Good for:Skin & coat/UTI/brain & eyes

For Puppies and cats

Vibe and Sport
Vibe description.

Cranimals™ VIBE is a wholefood supplement especially for adult dogs. It provides a nutrient synergy of cranberry and algae derived antioxidants (anthocyanidins, phycocyanin, chlorophyll, beta carotene) and vegetarian DHA Omega 3. Cranimals™ VIBE contains spirulina, a green aglal superfood that has shown potential to help limit muscle damage during heavy exercise, while DHA Omega 3 may also help increase oxygen delivery and energy utilization. Cranimals™ VIBE helps also to support kidney, liver, brain, eye and skin health through detoxification while working to mitigate inflammatory damage. Works best in tandem with liquid supplement Cranimals™ SPORT.

Ingredients: Cranberry extract powder, dried seaweed meal powder, organic spirulina powder

Good for:Detoxification 

For Dogs 

Sports description.

Cranimals™ SPORT is a synergistic blend of cold pressed organic plant oils and a powerful antioxidant xanthophyll carotenoid complex derived from algae. The carotenoid complex contains astaxanthin which binds directly with muscle tissue, helping to increase muscle strength and endurance during strenuous activity. The carotenoids in SPORT are powerful anti-inflammatory compounds, and blended together with cold pressed cranberry and flax oils, deliver Omega 3’s and Vitamin E. SPORT helps support mobility, athletic endurance and healthy joints in active, adult dogs. The carotenoids also help mitigate inflammatory tissue damage of the eyes, heart and muscles in dogs.

Ingredients:Cold pressed organic flax oil, cold pressed organic cranberry oil, red algae extract (a natural source of antioxidant carotenoids)

For Dogs.

ZenDog calming biscuits

WHY ZEN?

Like humans, dogs can get stressed - often due to separation, other dogs or lack of exercise. Cranimals™ Zendog Biscuits contain naturally calming organic pumpkin extract, a potent source of tryptophan which helps promote the synthesis of serotonin and melatonin, the Zen hormones of the body. These Zen snacks also contain a blend of Cranimals™' proprietary health ingredients including Cranimals™ Original supplement. Each biscuit delivers mood enhancing pumpkin extract and over 150 mg of Omega 3, Vitamins A, C and E and cranberry antioxidants - not just calming but ultra healthy! Zendog biscuits are oven baked from only Kosher 100% human food ingredients. Enlighten your furry Zenmaster with Zendogs!

  Certified Organic Pumpkin Extract:

  • a concentrated natural source of tryptophan, a precursor of serotonin and melatonin, the hormones which regulate and induce sleep and a sense of calm
  • clinically proven as naturally antiparasitic, particularly tapeworm
  • clinically shown to help lower incidence of bladder stones such as calcium oxalate

Well that's it for the information from the site.

I had asked for some samples of their products not sure what they're sending me or how much, but it'll be nice so I can see if Saya likes the stuff before buying.

I've read some people use it for their dog or cat and it works nicely for their pet so I'm excited to try it who knows.

Bella my parent's boxer has been having tear stains on her eyes and one person on the cranimal facebook page said giving the cranimals helped clear it up so Bella will be getting it too.

I'm thinking trying the Very berry and the Vibe at first and maybe do Sports depends on how the two things work out.

Saya being raw fed I'll probably give it to her daily with either an egg, ground meat, caned fish, or plain Greek yogurt.

Bella mixed in with her kibble with a bit of water in it.

I plan on trying the pouches first and if it goes well I'll get the big tubs costs more, but at least I won't have to keep ordering it or going to the store for it.
