. That aside.....my female with a bad hip gets vitamin C that has been cold processed so it keeps the good nutrients (I don't want to bore anyone with all the mumbo-jumbo either). It keeps her pain level down. I have used various supplements with my dogs but very carefully. I have had great luck with them.by nanu on 15 November 2009 - 15:11
The cold pressed processing is pretty interesting and gaining more popularity as the public learns more about it. Some vitamins /fats/minerals are heat sensitive but not all of them.
An earlier post asks about kibble being deficient in nutrients. If anyone is interested, the National Research Councl publishes guidelines for feeding just about everything. You learn what is called dietary essentials meaning it is a nutrient that must be fed daily. Its a very good guideline to use.
I am curious to hear how the vitamin C supplementation may ease joint pain. Maybe I can stop taking the Ibuprofen!
Back to C supplementation and bone development. The critical ages are when the bitch is in whelp throught 1 1/2 years of age in the large breed dog. ( I know, some will say 1 year ).
We need to start a green tripe post! How do you feed it? with or without a clothespin on your nose?
