Is it safe to give my 5-month Golden puppy calcium and multivitamins?

Because Ghontu is eating a high quality food, she does not need any multivitamins. Too many vitamins can have adverse effects on her growth, and it's not recommended to give them to dogs unless they are suffering from a nutritional deficiency.

Puppies at this age should not be given supplements, as too many vitamins and too much calcium is detrimental to her health and growth. She will be getting all the nutrients she needs from her Royal Canin, which is an excellent puppy food. I would continue feeding her the Royal Canin puppy food, and not give her the homemade diet. The only food she needs is her puppy food, and the homemade diet may make her gain too much weight. You can start giving her the MyBeau supplements when she is a year old and eating an adult food.

It is never recommended to give puppies multi vitamins and calcium supplements. This will affect Fang's growth adversely, and it is not needed. A good quality puppy food will provide all the nutrients he needs. I also advise again feeding him Orijen. It's grain free, and vets are seeing a link between dogs developing dilated cardiomyopathy who are on grain free diets. The FDA is now investigating that link. Grain free food is a fad, grains are actually good for dogs. I'd feed him a puppy food from brands such as Royal Canin, Hill's Science Diet, Purina ProPlan, or Iams. I hope this helps!

Royal Canin is a complete, balanced food. It should not be necessary to add other supplements. Adding additional calcium or vitamins could actually be detrimental as it will throw off normal ratios. Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Charlie is adorable No. If Charlie is on a high quality commercial large breed puppy food he doesn't need any supplements. Be very careful giving extra calcium to growing large breed puppies. There is no need to supplement. I wish you the best

I would not generally recommend using supplements unless a specific condition has been diagnosed which would benefit from nutritional treatment. I would recommend feeding a high quality, balanced food which has been formulated for his specific size and age. Adding multivitamins to a good diet can lead to accidental excesses and imbalances and can be harmful

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Bone is SUPER cute!! I do not recommend calcium supplementation. Once Bone is 5-6 weeks old start feeding him a commercial puppy food, like Purina puppy chow. If you are bottle feeding him with a puppy formula you can start mixing that with puppy food now. All commercial puppy foods are nutritionally balance. Over supplementing calcium can cause harm. I hope this helps!
