WHAT WE LOVE:

WHAT WE LOVE:

WHAT WE LOVE:
Entering the world of BARF (bones and raw food) can be confusing and sometimes controversial. Raw Feeding 101 is a solid place to start if you are interested in a raw foods diet, and each book on this list on Amazon (linked at the photos above) will round out the information you need. If you introduce raw food, your Schnauzer may also benefit from a multivitamin.
WHAT WE LOVE:
As the most popular canine supplement, Glucosamine formulations may alleviate the symptoms of joint damage by increasing the repair of articular cartilage, the moist, spongy material that forms a cushion between joints. We love this for aiding very active Schnauzers, as well as those with hip displaysia, joint problems, and arthritis.
WHAT WE LOVE:
Schnauzers often get more than enough Omega-6 fats in their diet, but remain low on Omega-3 fats. Rather than supplementing with the canine Fish Oil products on the market, we love the idea of supplementing specifically with phytoplankton, which are tiny bundles of algae and bacteria that sustain the entire ocean.
WHAT WE LOVE:
Schnauzers are prone to pancreatitis. We love that probiotics can aid their digestion with controlled nutrients and enzymes carefully manufactured for dogs. To avoid pancreatitis, keep your Schnauzer away from high fat foods and use probiotics to maintain good gut health. However, DO NOT use probiotics if your Schnauzer already has experienced acute pancreatitis.
