Dogs 10 - 50 pounds: 1 scoop per day

Top


Can I use your supplement with my puppy?

Dr. Jones' Ultimate Canine Health Formula is designed with Adult and Senior dogs in mind. It is safe to give to your older puppy - but since most puppies are very energetic and healthy, you won't see much of a difference in them if they do take the formula. So, it's generally not necessary - unless you are providing a home diet and would like to ensure they receive additional vitamins and minerals, or your puppy already has health issues.

If you do choose to give the supplement to your puppy, here's the guideline: for small breeds, do not start giving them the supplement until after the age of 6 months, and for medium and large breeds, the age of 9 months.

Once your puppy becomes an Adult at 1 year of age, start them on full doses for long term disease prevention.

Top


Is your supplement meant to be taken every day?

Yes. Dr. Jones' Ultimate Canine Health Formula is a daily supplement that you add to your dog's food every day.

Top


How long will one jar of your supplement last?

Depends on the size of your dog. One jar (one order) of Dr. Jones' Ultimate Canine Health Formula is based on a 30 day supply for an average, 50 pound dog. If your dog is smaller, one jar may last more than one month - if larger, one jar will last less than one month.

Top


I feed my dog a home-made diet. Can I use the supplement?

Yes. Dr. Jones' Ultimate Canine Health Formula can be used with a both a home-made diet and a regular kibble / commercial diet. If giving Ultimate Canine with a home diet, the only additional supplement I recommend is to provide extra calcium. One of my favorite sources is powdered egg shells (preferably organic / free range), 1 tsp will provide approximately 2000mg of calcium. Ultimate Canine contains 240mg per serving, so provide extra calcium as recommended. The AAFCO current recommendation is to give a total of 1.25 mg calcium/kcal of food. If you find this difficult to calculate, as an approximation, you can give a total of 250mg calcium per 10lbs of body weight daily.

Top


I feed my dog regular dog food that I buy from my pet supply store. Can I use your supplement?

Yes. Dr. Jones' Ultimate Canine Health Formula can be used with a both a home-made diet and a regular kibble / commercial diet.

Top


Can I give Dr. Jones' Ultimate Canine Health Formula to my cat also?

No. Dr. Jones' Ultimate Canine Health Formula is strictly a dog supplement. We do have an equivalent cat supplement, Ultimate Feline. Click here for Ultimate Feline.

My dog is fussy, and he/she refuses to eat certain things. Will my dog like your supplement? What can I do to help him/her take it?

Yes. Dr. Jones' Ultimate Canine Health Formula is flavored with chicken, to make it tasty. Almost all dogs who have tried the supplement have liked it and will eat it by itself, right out of their bowl - many get just as excited as if you are giving them a treat. But if your dog is very fussy, here are a few suggestions that may help:

  • First, just mixing it with a different treat can work, it doesn't have to be fed with their regular food. Mixing it with something like peanut butter, ice cream / cheese, cooked ground meat, anything you can mix it with that's not part of their regular diet, can help them get used to it. You can try with very small amounts mixed in at first, and increase from there.
  • Another way is to play a game of 'catch the treat' - get him used to catching a (moist) treat out of the air (anything such as the above treat suggestions, or even coconut oil that's cooled so you can roll into a small ball). Once he/she's used to that, mix the supplement in and toss him/her the treat - most dogs gulp it down without even noticing.
  • As a final suggestion, we have some who mix the supplement with water and 'shoot' it down the throat with a plastic syringe / turkey baster - it's more like giving him a medicine, but it will work.

My dog is very healthy - does he/she really need a supplement?

For basic health and survival, no, your dog does not need a supplement. But for optimum health, for your dog to thrive, YES. The point of a supplement is to give your dog that extra advantage, to help fight off disease and give your dog a better chance for a long and healthy life.

Top


My dog is on a very high quality, balanced kibble - does she/he still need a supplement?

Yes. Even the best dog foods do not contain all of what you'll find in Dr. Jones' Ultimate Canine Health Formula. The point is to give additional nutrients for that extra advantage. Most dog foods, including some of the best, only provide basic levels of nutrients required for survival, not enough for your dog to really thrive.

Top


My dog's food already has a lot of additional vitamins and minerals - does she/he still need a supplement?

Yes - refer to the question above.

Top


If my dog's food already has vitamins and minerals added, is there a danger of 'overdosing' or 'over-supplementing' - giving them too much of a particular vitamin or mineral?

No. Even added to the best foods, Dr. Jones' Ultimate Canine Health Formula will not cause an 'overload' of any particular vitamin or mineral. Just as with humans, the only way to get too much of a nutritional supplement it is to 'overdose' by a very large degree.

Top


Do supplements really make a difference? If my dog is healthy, how will I know if the supplements are actually helping?

If your dog is young with no current health issues, you may not directly notice a change now. The major benefit of giving Dr. Jones' Ultimate Canine Health Formula to a young, healthy dog is PREVENTION. This is something I always advise my clients: if you can do anything to help prevent disease in your dog in the long run, do it - with better food, fewer vaccines, and supplements. If your dog develops a serious disease such as cancer, the cost to you and your dog, both financially and emotionally, will be more than the cost of a daily supplement now, by far. Just ask anyone who has a dog now with a serious health condition, or anyone (including myself) who lost a dog before his time.

Top


How long should it take before the supplement has a visible effect on my pet's health and wellbeing?

Depends. If your dog has health issues now, you may see a dramatic change within a couple of weeks, but it depends on several factors - what the problem is, how long your dog has had it, what sort of treatment you have been doing up to this point, etc. If you read the comments some of our clients have sent in, you'll read about some who have seen results in days. But on average, you should see noticeable results within one month.
If your dog is healthy now, please see question above.

Top


I feed my dog a Raw Food diet. Would I need a supplement even if I am feeding a species appropriate (raw) diet?

Yes. Although Raw Food Diets are better in many ways, when still in practice, in my clinic I would see dogs on raw diets getting cancer, allergies, and auto-immune diseases. Raw Food Diets are not the complete solution.

Top


Is your supplement okay for dogs that are on weight restriction diets?

Yes. Dr. Jones' Ultimate Canine Health Formula will not interfere with a weight restriction diet, and may help the weight loss process through improved overall health.

Top


If my dog doesn't have joint problems now, is it still okay to give him/her glucosamine and chondroitin?

Yes. Both glucosamine and chondroitin are found naturally in the body. Glucosamine is needed to produce glycosaminoglycan, a molecule used in the formation and repair of cartilage, and chondroitin gives cartilage elasticity and it prevents cartilage destruction. Production of glucosamine slows with age. So while your younger dog may not have joint issues now, additional glucosamine and chondroitin will not cause any problems, and may help your dog avoid a joint problem later in life.

Top


My dog is allergic to chicken. Should my dog take your supplement?

That depends. Most dogs with an allergy to chicken can take Dr. Jones' Ultimate Canine Health Formula. Usually, I find that dogs with a chicken allergy are not acutely sensitive to chicken - most only have a reaction if their daily food contains chicken. In other words, if they have a diet with chicken as the primary protein source, they have an allergic reaction. Dr. Jones' Ultimate Canine Health Formula does contain chicken, but it is in a small amount, so most dogs with chicken allergies should be able to take it.

In short:

Yes, your dog should take Dr. Jones' Ultimate Canine Health Formula even if they have a mild allergy to chicken.

If your dog is very sensitive to chicken - if he/she reacts to even a small amount of chicken - then No, do not give Dr. Jones' Ultimate Canine Health Formula to your dog.

Top


Will there be any side effects if my dog takes your supplement?

No. Dr. Jones' Ultimate Canine Health Formula is not a pharmaceutical drug - it is a naturally derived health supplement. All ingredients are either in their natural form or they are derived from a natural source - there will be no side effects unless your dog has a pre-existing sensitivity to a particular ingredient.

Point to note - when some dogs start on Dr. Jones' Ultimate Canine Health Formula, they can go through a bout of diarrhea. This is quite normal when just starting on a concentrated health supplement - for both humans and pets! This is referred to as "going through a nutritional boost", but it shouldn't last. If it is continuous, just go off the supplement for a few days until things "stabilize", then slowly reintroduce it into the food again in smaller amounts, then work up to the recommended dosage.

Top


I have a dog who takes prescription medication - would your supplement cause a reaction in my dog?

No. Dr. Jones' Ultimate Canine Health Formula is not a pharmaceutical drug, and will not cause reactions or side effects like prescription medication. Please refer to the question above.

Top


My dog has Cushings Disease - would it be okay for him to take your supplement?

Yes. If your dog is on medication for Cushings, he/she will be able to safely take Dr. Jones' Ultimate Canine Health Formula.

Top


Would your supplement be good for a dog with digestive problems? Does it contain a pro-biotic?

Yes. Dr. Jones' Ultimate Canine Health Formula contains a pre-biotic and pro-biotic blend, to help dogs with digestive problems.

Top


I have a dog with Kidney Disease - would it be okay to give your supplement to him/her?

Yes. Dr. Jones' Ultimate Canine Health Formula contains no added phosphorus or anything else that would cause any problems with a dog with kidney disease, and it may help improve the health of the kidneys over time.

Top


My dog has Heart Disease and is currently on medication - would your supplement be okay to give him/her, and would it help?

Top


Is your supplement absorbable - will my dog absorb and actually benefit from your supplement (is it in a bio-available format)?

Yes. Dr. Jones' Ultimate Canine Health Formula is in the most bio-available format - as in easiest to digest - while still being in supplement form.

It wouldn't be possible to provide all of the nutrients in Dr. Jones' Ultimate Canine Health Formula in their original state at the levels contained in the formula - you would be feeding an enormous amount of material daily, and it wouldn't be in a convenient format. All of the nutrients in the formula are derived from the natural source, but with the supplement in this format, we are able to provide optimal levels of nutrients in a convenient form, and still have it easily digestible.

Top

Top


Do you ship to the UK / Europe / South Africa / New Zealand / etc - is your supplement available internationally?

Yes, except Australia. We ship Dr. Jones' Ultimate Canine Health Formula worldwide, with the only exception being Australia. The reason for this is that the Australian government requires all pet foods & supplements to be irradiated prior to import, which would destroy the nutrients in our supplements. If you are in Australia, you can order but it is at your own risk (we will not guarantee delivery).

Top
