Can my puppy benefit from supplements?
Your puppy may benefit from certain supplements, but talk to your vet to be sure. While most puppies don't need supplements as long as they eat a complete and balanced high-quality puppy food diet, your vet may recommend a supplement to target a specific health or behavioral issue. Some commonly recommended supplements for puppies include immune health, allergy, skin and coat, calming, vitamin, probiotic, and digestive supplements.
Should I brush my puppy's teeth?
You should brush your puppy's teeth. Talk to your vet for expert oral care guidance and tips on the best dental products for puppies. Most experts recommend toothbrushing from an early age to get puppies accustomed to the process. You can usually start brushing your puppy's teeth as early as 6-8 weeks of age, even though those teeth will eventually be replaced by adult teeth. A dog toothbrush and toothpaste will make the process easier and get your puppy used to a healthy daily oral care regimen.
