Not only do I recommend and prescribe TCM herbs, there are a number of supplements that I recommend every dog be on for optimal health. Below you can find usages, benefits and dosages for each. For helpful tips on giving supplements to your dogs, check out the tutorial videos in my app!
Dosage and Usage Guidelines:
Dosages are for average issues, if the issues are more dire, double the dose. For maintenance treatment, you can half the dose.
PROBIO:
It will also eradicate tear stains and any UTI issues too!
MAINTENANCE DOSAGE: 1/8 tsp per 10lbs once a day with food.
SEVERE YEAST OVERGROWTH (OR INITIAL DOSE): 1/2 tsp twice a day.
Keep in mind that it usually takes about 6 months to balance the microbiome when it's in a state of longterm imbalance. However, it's much easier to keep it there once balanced and you can then reduce to a maintenance dosage.
MARSHMALLOW ROOT:
Marshmallow root is great for draining dampness, dogs with stomach issues and combating the damp seasons. I recommend it at a maintenance dose for all dogs.
MAINTENANCE DOSAGE: 1/2 tsp per 15lbs once a day with food.
For dogs with severe dampness (skin, respiratory, etc.) double the dose, and give twice daily.
KRILL OIL:
Krill oil is my go to choice for Omega 3's. It's less prone to contamination and easier for the body to absorb! Benefits include: cardiovascular health, cognitive support, joint health, gut health and more.
Dosage: 1 tablet per 20lbs once daily. (make a small incision in tab with scissors or knife and squeeze onto food)
CBD W/CBN COOKIE AND TINCTURE:
It's widely known that the use of CBD is safe and beneficial for our four legged companions. Our CBD with CBN tincture is made in house with 99.9% pure CBD and CBN, ensuring their effectiveness and the most bang for the buck!
Choose from: CBD Cookies (size 10lb/25lb/50lb dosage), or our Auntie M's CBD with CBN
We recommend the cookies for anxiety and stress, and the tincture to aid with inflammation and chronic conditions.
CBD/N TINCTURE: (1oz - 300 drops)
Internal Use:
Give 1 drop per pound of weight for regular use. For injured pets or more advanced inflammation, give up to 2 drops per pound.
Topical Use:

Our best selling Dog Fish & Animal Crackers with the power of CBD! Use them to alleviate pain and inflammation, or to calm a stressed puppy. With 99.9% pure, locally manufactured, CBD powder they are sure to ease your dog's anxiety and pain. Choose the cookie based on your dog's size, or get Chicken Dust or Awesome Filling to dose as needed!
