Dietary Medicine & Supplements

Good nutrition doesn’t need to be a chore, but it does need to be more than just feeding your pet out of a bag or akittle can. Commercial foods fed alone may be one of the biggest causes of disease in our pets in modern times.

Here at Boulder’s Natural Animal we believe that dietary recommendations should be offered to suit the individuality of your animals’ metabolism and state of health.

Home-made diets have been found to be the single most effective nutritional tool available to help your pet. We understand that not everyone is up to the task of preparing these diets due to life style, time constraints, philosophy and motivation. Alternative diets can be prepared that utilize the best quality commercial foods available combined with antioxidants, omega three oils, digestive enzymes and probiotics, as well as a smattering of healthy leftovers from your own me

als. Boulder’s Natural Animal carries or recommends a number of healthy pre-packaged pet food diets and treats including:

  • Merrick
  • Wellness
  • Canidae
  • Felidae
  • Chicken Soup for the Dog and Cat Lovers Soul
  • Natures Variety Instinct and Prairie Diets

Nutritional Supplements:

Nutraceuticals are compounds that have been isolated and concentrated pharmaceutically from food materials. Vitamins and amino acids are one example. Glucosamine sulfate and chondroiten sulfate are other examples. When used properly these compounds are extremely safe and can be of far greater benefit to the body than when taken in their whole food form, mainly due to their concentrated nature.

These compounds can work much faster in the body than whole foods and for the pet that is in pain or has a serious disease, the use of these compounds will hasten the healing of the problem.
