Hi Sue, 

All our products are designed to complement each other, so that they can be combined in whatever way is best for a particular pet, to support optimum health and quality of life. And if any advice is ever needed on what to choose and how to do this, we are always more than happy to help.

The most important thing when supplementing the diet of a pet with health issues of any kind, is to only introduce one at a time, and to start with just a 1/4 teaspoon or so initially. Then, if all is going well, the amount can slowly be increased over the following weeks until the suggested daily level is being given (divided between meals). 

This is gentle on the digestive system and also avoids a pet being put off their food because it smells or tastes unusual. It's also the best way to confirm that a supplement suits a dog or cat, and is healthy and nutritious to give long-term. 

With regards to Vitality, most dogs and cats need multivitamin, mineral and trace element supplementation these days because the food chain is not as rich in these as it used to be. In addition to this, the level of nutrients the body needs to stay healthy in the face of modern day stress and pollution is much higher. Adding Vitality to the diet helps to bridge this gap, by making sure that essential micronutrients which need to be present in the diet each day (because the body can't store or manufacture these for itself) are supplied. This is even more important when there is evidence that the digestive tract is not assimilating nutrients from food effectively - which is often the case when blood folate and B12 levels are low. 

IBD (Inflammatory Bowel Disease) as you know, is a descriptive term rather than a specific diagnosis, which means that various parts of the digestive tract are inflamed for some reason. This can be due to dietary sensitivities, parasitic infections, autoimmune diseases and a range of other conditions. It is best to work with your vet to address these and other possible underlying causes for the best possible results. 

Such an approach typically includes the following:

1. Identifying and avoiding dietary allergens.
2. Supporting the gut microbiome with prebiotics (Digestion) and probiotics that have proven to be effective.
3. Ruling out worm infections as a contributory factor - which can be done with this kit.
4. Providing a rich supply of essential vitamins, minerals and trace elements in an easy to digest and assimilate form, such as Vitality.

Joints is the supplement of choice for maximising flexibility and mobility.

When stiffness is severe and / or long-standing, giving Joint Support too, further eases discomfort and aids ease of movement.

These can be bought as a bundle here.  

Both Joints and Joint Support are safe to use alongside any other natural products, and medication prescribed by vets. 

Hi Katie, yes this is the best supplement for ensuring that many of the vitamins, minerals and trace elements which the body needs in the diet each day are supplied. 

A typical Labrador would require 3 teaspoons daily, divided between meals. It is advisable however, to give half this amount to start with to allow the digestive system time to adapt to a richer diet. After 7 days, if the stools remain well-formed and health otherwise good, this can be increased to the full amount. The powder can be mixed into any wet dog food, or even a little live, plain yoghurt. Do let us know how you get on.

Hi Katie, yes it would. 

Vitality added to the diet provides a rich supply of anti-oxidants, which help reduce inflammation in the body. Other nutrients present support tissue regeneration and repair in the pancreas and throughout the body.

Vitality is very low in fat - typically 1% or less.

Yes, Vitality and Heart Support work very well together and can be bought here as a bundle for a saving of £8. 

Yes, all our supplements contain only pure, natural human food grade ingredients, which are fine for people to take too! 

Yes, it is. It supplies more than 80 important nutrients, which support whole body health. 

Yes, Vitality is fine in these circumstances.

Hi Jane, all the remedies are in liquid form.

These are supplied in 50ml dropper bottles, so that a few drops can simply be added to food as directed.

The supplements are all powders, and are supplied in small and large tubs of the specified weight in grams. The appropriate amount can be mixed into any wet meals.

If you scroll down to the heading 'THE DETAILS' on the left hand side of each product page, and click on the + to expand the hidden panel, the information about the make up of each supplement or remedy can be found there.

Hi Bev, thank you for your enquiry. And wonderful to hear you've seen such fabulous results with our supplements. Would love you to email further details of the benefits seen to info@vincethevet.co.uk along with some pictures of your boy to share! ????

Yes, it's fine to give the Ultimate Anxiety remedies in raw, or on a small tit-bit. It also helps to add a little to drinking water daily and sprinkle on bedding. This short video explains how they work, and advice on getting the best results. Do keep us posted!     

All the 4 supplements can be given together in wet food, plain live yoghurt or something similar. We recommend however, introducing one at a time at 2 week intervals to allow the digestive tract to adapt at a comfortable pace to the change of diet.

Whenever lumps are present, Immunity is the best supplement to start with, as its ingredients support the normal anti-tumour activity of white blood cells. Ideally, half the daily amount should be given (divided between meals) for the first week Then, if the stools remain well-formed and health otherwise good, this can be increased to the full amount. For maximum immune system support, if the stools remain well-formed and health otherwise good, double this amount can be given going forward. This process can then be repeated with Vitality and then after 3 weeks with Digestion - as it was for Lexi and Pippa.

We hope this helps and if you need any more help, please do not hesitate to get in touch via our contact page.

Hi Sheila, yes we do. USA can be selected as the delivery destination from the drop down postcode list at checkout, 

Excessive grass eating has many possible causes. The first step when this is the case, is to improve digestion and add a concentrated source of natural, biologically active micronutrients to make sure there aren't any nutritional deficiencies behind this. And you can do this by adding Digestion to the diet, and then 2 weeks later Vitality. Be sure to add just a little of these to begin within and then increase gradually over a week or two, until giving the suggested amount. Do let us know how you get on.  You may also find this blog of interest. 

Vitality is a unique blend of organic Spirulina and organic Chlorella. The nutrients each supply can be found here and here.

We usually find when Digestion and Bio-Kult are used alongside each other, no other pre and probiotics are necessary in most cases. Adding Vitality and a dessertspoon of organic broccoli to the diet also helps many dogs with this kind of behaviour.
