Dogs need vitamin supplements, but the specific vitamins, dosages, and methods of supplementation depend on the dog’s age, physical condition, eating habits and other factors.
Under normal circumstances, dogs can get the nutrients they need from a balanced diet, including a variety of vitamins and minerals. If your dog is taking certain medications, is growing, pregnant, or nursing, or is not getting adequate nutrients for any reason, additional vitamin supplements may be needed.
Generally speaking, owners should prioritize meeting their dog’s vitamin needs through diet. If vitamin supplementation is required, it is recommended to consult your veterinarian and follow his or her instructions. Do not use human vitamin tablets or other health products to supplement your dog's vitamins without authorization, as this may have a negative impact on your dog's health.
