Canine Frequently Asked Questions

My dog dislocated a hip and pulled a tendon. The vet says it will take time to heal. Can Platinum Canine help speed things up?

A dog in excellent health naturally heals faster. Platinum Performance Canine Wellness contains nutrient combinations that are essential for proper cell function, help modulate inflammatory response, promote healing, support cardiovascular and joint function, and provide overall wellness. In addition, you may want to talk to your vet about supplementing with one of the following supplements: Platinum Myo-Vet, BCCA Plus, Boswellia, Ortho-Chon and Nexrutine. Read product descriptions or check our Glossary to learn more about what each of these provide.

My senior dog is having trouble walking. Will Platinum help? Is there something I can do besides add Platinum Canine Wellness?

Older dogs can be made more comfortable and make health gains with the right combination of nutrients. Platinum Performance Canine Wellness contains nutrient combinations that are essential for proper cell function, help support cardiovascular and joint function, and provide overall wellness. But you may also want to try anyone of Platinum's anti-aging formulas, particularly Canine Plus. Analgesics, like Harpagophytum Procumbens, Boswellia and Nexrutine may also be helpful.

I have a show dog and would like her to get a leg up on the competition at the next show. Can Platinum help?

To start with Platinum Performance Canine Wellness may help improve the condition of your dog's coat. But since it also contains nutrient combinations that provide overall wellness, you'll see other benefits as well. A happy healthier dog always get bonus points in our book. Platinum also offers a special anxiolytic formula called Serenity Plus that may help relieve the stress of experience in transport and in the showing environment. It contains relora, a therapeutic botanical, and theanine, an amino acid. Combined, they may help induce calm (without a doping effect) and decrease the cortisol levels, ultimately protecting your dog from the mental and physical effects of stress. Ask your veterinarian if Serenity Plus is appropriate for your dog.

My dog picked up mange on a recent cross-the-border trip. My vet's treating him but I am wondering if I can do anymore to speed up healing and help his coat recover.

This is an exceptionally important time to add Platinum Performance Canine Wellness to your dog's daily diet. It contains nutrient combinations that are essential for proper cell function, help modulate inflammatory response, promote healing, support cardiovascular and joint function, and provide overall wellness. Other helpful Platinum nutracuetical products include Platinum Vitamin C or Platinum Antioxidants Formula.

My dog constantly itches and chews on his feet. Can Platinum help?

When fleas bite or your dog comes up against an allergen (dust, mold, pollen, food) his body responds by releasing histamine. Localized histamine reactions precipitate itching and gnawing. Numerous studies show that overabundance of omega-6 EFAs can exacerbate these flare-ups. Platinum Performance Canine Wellness Formula helps restore omega-3 EFAs to the system to counteract the imbalance. Vitamins E and A, and selenium are included in Canine Wellness as well, in amounts that aid in preventing oxidation of adrenal gland cells and help regenerate new skin cells. This increases the production of essential hormones needed to mitigate skin allergies in dogs.
