Nutritional Support for Dogs and Cats
As a holistic veterinarian, I tend to focus on health and prevention. Diet and nutrition are the main foundation of health. Food is the best way to provide nutrition but with our processed dog food, nutritional supplements are usually needed.
I love Standard Process for their food-based nutritional supplements. The company has been family owned and operated for over 95 years. Most of their ingredients are organically grown on their farm in Wisconsin.
Here are a few of my favorite formulas that are good for all pets.

Feline Immune Support
The immune system is a complex array of cells that are found throughout the body. Immune cells are designed to work in conjunction with each other to provide a defense against unwanted invaders. The complexity of the immune system requires a multidimensional approach to nutritional factors. Nutritional support of the immune system is directed at facilitating normal function and is not intended to be suppressive or stimulating.
• Provides nutritional and biochemical support for healthy immune cells and tissues
• Supports optimal immune system function
Indications for Use:
• General immune system support
• Colder climates or during the fall/winter months
• When kenneled or in a shelter
