Will Doggie Java interfere with my overweight dogs diet? |

Doggie Java is an excellent addition to a weight loss program. If you

intake. Doggie Java will help make up for the lost vitamins and minerals while
providing a negligible increase in calories. Increasing water intake will also
help your dog lose weight. |

| Q. |
Why is Doggy Java in a powder form? |
| A. |
We did not want to add what almost (98%) of the vitamin companies use in
their formulas to make a tablet. We are not saying that any of the Companies or their
products are bad. There are ingredients in MOST nutritional supplements, for
both animals and humans, that are largely used for multiple reasons. Most are
cost, binding properties, flow properties and lubrication properties. A lot of
these ingredients that other vitamin companies use are commonly used in the
pharmaceutical industry as excipients or fillers. They have long since been
thought of as “just being passed through the body without doing anything”. As
studies are showing, that is not entirely true. So, we at Doggy Java wanted to
eliminate these ingredients and the need to bind a tablet and make a pure powder for
optimum health. |
| Q. |
Does my dog need a product to keep him hydrated? Won't he
just drink when he is thirsty? |
| A. |
While dogs will drink when they are thirsty, the cannot
anticipate a increased need for hydration. For instance, a human may
hydrate themselves before strenuous exercise because they know that they
may not be able to drink during the activity. By using a product like
Doggie Java, you can entice your pet to drink before extra hydration is
needed. |
| Q. |
Does my dog really need a supplement? Isn't his dog food
enough? |
| A. |
"Dog food" is designed to provide your dog with essential
nutrients for maintenance. However, there are times when your dog's
body may require extra nutrients to make up for exceptional losses or consumption. A supplement can provide these when needed. |
| Q. |
Why can't I just give my dog a vitamin pill instead of
Doggie Java? |
| A. |
While vitamin pills can provide you dog with vitamins,
minerals and anti-oxidants, they don't provide your dog with a commonly
overlooked nutrient-----water. Hydration is critical for good health.
Doggie Java also provides you with the opportunity to give your dog a
nutritional treat rather than just a pill. |
| Q. |
Why are anti-oxidants necessary. |
| A. |
Any time there is an inflammatory process going on in your
dog's body, substances called oxygen free radicals are produced. These
chemicals are damaging to cells. Anti-oxidants help the body remove
these harmful chemicals. |
| Q. |
Is Doggie Java safe to use if my dog is sick. |
| A. |
Vitamins, minerals, anti-oxidants and water are helpful in
any disease. However, if your pet is taking any medications, it is wise
to consult with your veterinarian about possible interactions with any
supplement. This is true of all supplements and is not a unique warning
for Doggie Java. |
