humans shouldn't take calcium CARBONATE because it is a stomach acid reducer and other vitamins NEED the stomach acid to break them down. Isn't it the same way with dogs? So why is it found here?

Answer by ChewyOct 02, 2019
Calcium carbonate is an essential mineral in your dog’s diet. It aides bone growth, teeth resilience, eyesight, and prevents clotting. If you do not feed your dog enough calcium, serious health repercussions can follow. But it is also important you do not feed your dog too much calcium carbonate, as it could negate the effects of other essential minerals like iron and zinc. Calcium carbonate is usually added to your dog’s meal in a powder form, but for quantities and further advice you should consult your local vet.
