Nutritional supplements for dogs – complementary feed and care from Germany

In feed legislation, nutritional supplements for dogs are known as complementary feed: They supplement the daily diet with vitamins, minerals, fatty acids, and phytonutrients. At Annimally, you will find complementary feed for dogs in the form of powders, tablets, and oils, as well as grooming products for fur, paws, eyes, and ears. All products are manufactured in Germany, and the full composition is listed on every product page.

Does my dog need supplementary feed?

Complete feed covers basic nutritional needs. However, a dog's actual requirements depend on age, size, activity level, and life stage. With supplementary feed, you can tailor the diet specifically to your dog: when feeding raw (BARF) or home-cooked meals, during growth, in old age, for active sporting dogs, or during coat changes.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between dietary supplements and complementary feed for dogs?

Both terms are common in everyday language. Legally, such products for animals are called complementary feed; the term dietary supplement is reserved for food intended for humans. Complementary feed is given in addition to the main feed to supplement it with specific nutrients.

Does my dog need dietary supplements if they are fed commercial pet food?

Commercial pet food meets the basic requirements of an average dog. However, in many life stages, a dog has special needs, such as during growth, in old age, during coat changes, or with a high level of physical activity. In these cases, supplementary food is a useful addition to the diet. Those who feed raw or cook for their dogs should always supplement with minerals, vitamins, and oil.

Can I give multiple complementary feed products at the same time?

Yes, provided they complement each other and do not supply the same nutrients twice. Especially with vitamin A, vitamin D, and trace elements, pay attention to the total across all products. For example, an oil and a vitamin supplement can be combined well.

Which nutritional supplement is right for my dog?

This depends on age, activity level, and diet. For daily vitamin supply, Dog's Daily is suitable; for puppies, Dog's Daily Junior; for those feeding raw (BARF), Super Barf with Barf Oil; and for seniors, Omega-3-rich Lax Oil and Vitamin B Complex.
