Thursday’s Thought - How to Support Kidney Health with Evidence-Based Natural Solutions 🌿
If your dog has been diagnosed with chronic kidney disease (CKD), you're likely aware of its progressive nature. While there's no cure, there are many ways to help manage the condition and slow its progression, ensuring your dog feels their best for as long as possible.
Here are some natural strategies, backed by research, that could make a real difference in supporting kidney function:
➡️ P.E.A. (Palmitoylethanolamide) - It has no known contraindications with prescription medications, making it a safe option for supporting kidney function.
➡️ Medicinal Mushrooms - They’ve been shown to help reduce oxidative damage and inflammation in the kidneys.
➡️ Milk Thistle - Best known for its liver-supporting properties, milk thistle also offers significant benefits for kidney health.
➡️ Omega-3 Fatty Acids - High-quality marine sources of omega-3s, such as those found in Antinol Plus, are well-researched for their ability to reduce inflammation and protect kidney tissue.
➡️ Organic Beef Kidney - Rich in essential nutrients like vitamins and minerals, it plays a key role in nourishing and protecting kidney health.
While medication and treatment prescribed by your vet are essential for managing CKD, natural supplementation can work synergistically to support ongoing kidney health.

The Ultimate Gut Bundle for Dogs
The Ultimate Gut Bundle is a targeted protocol designed to restore balance, reduce inflammation, and support long-term gut health.
🔬 Why Gut Health Matters:
The gut is home to trillions of bacteria that play a crucial role in digestion, immune defense, and nutrient absorption. When imbalances occur, symptoms like diarrhoea, reflux, gas, vomiting, and yeast infections can arise.
How the Ultimate Gut Bundle Supports Digestive Health:
✔ Relieves digestive upsets, including diarrhoea & constipation
✔ Promotes gut healing and repair
✔ Supports beneficial gut flora for microbiome balance
✔ Soothes mild gut irritations & reduces inflammation
✔ Strengthens gut lining integrity (helps manage 'leaky gut')
✔ Supports immune function & gastrointestinal mucosal health
If your dog is struggling with ongoing digestive discomfort, this bundle offers a comprehensive, science-backed approach to restoring gut health and promoting long-term wellness.

🐶Thursday’s Thought - Gut health matters!
New research shows that yeast-based probiotics, like Saccharomyces cerevisiae, can help dogs recover faster from antibiotic-induced gut imbalances.
🐾 Dogs supplemented with this probiotic had quicker microbiome recovery, lower inflammation, and improved gut health.
🦠 Saccharomyces boulardii (SB) is another powerhouse probiotic we love, helping to combat diarrhoea, gut inflammation, and even yeast overgrowth by outcompeting harmful microbes.
💡 If your dog has been on antibiotics or struggles with gut issues, a yeast-based probiotic could be a game changer!

Are glucosamine and chondroitin actually helping your dog’s joints? 🤔
We’ve all heard they’re essential for joint health, but does the science back it up? 🧐 Narelle breaks down the research—while these ingredients are widely used in arthritis supplements, studies in both humans and dogs show underwhelming results.
So, what does work? The latest research suggests collagen and omega-3s provide far better support for joint health! 🐶💪

Thursday’s Thought 🐶☀️ Did you know dogs can't make their own vitamin D?
Research has linked low vitamin D levels to various health conditions in both humans and dogs, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, immune disorders, and even cancer. A 2014 study found associations between low vitamin D in dogs and conditions such as lymphoma, kidney disease, inflammatory bowel disease, and heart disease.
So, how can you ensure your dog is getting enough vitamin D?
While many commercial dog foods contain synthetic vitamin D, it is often not as bioavailable as natural sources. The best way to support your dog's health is by including vitamin D-rich whole foods in their diet.

Thursday’s Thought - Is Your Dog Getting Enough Taurine?
While adult dogs can produce taurine, it's considered a non-essential amino acid—meaning they don’t technically need it from their diet.
Here’s the catch: the body has to make trade-offs. Taurine is produced from another amino acid called cysteine, which also has other vital jobs—like producing glutathione, the body's primary antioxidant. Glutathione protects cells and helps prevent chronic disease. If your dog's body has to prioritise making taurine, it may have less cysteine available to create glutathione—like robbing Peter to pay Paul!
But here’s a common misconception: the solution isn’t to switch to a kibble that contains grains. Dogs don’t need grains because the best sources of taurine and its precursors come from animal proteins—not plants.

We also offer a range of freeze-dried organic beef organ powders. These nutrient-dense toppers can be a great addition to kibble—they are nature’s multivitamin! Check them out at canineceuticals.com.au. 🐕💚
🐶 Thursday Thought: What’s Really in Your Dog’s Kibble?
Did you know that the FDA is finally banning Red Dye No. 3 in the US after animal studies linked it to cancer? While this is a step in the right direction, countries like Australia, New Zealand, and Europe banned it years ago.
Artificial dyes in pet food serve zero nutritional purpose—they’re purely for marketing to humans, not for your dog's health. Research has linked synthetic colours to tumours, hyperactivity, allergies, and even anxiety in dogs.
🧐 Take a look at your kibble. Flip the bag over and check the ingredients—if you see Red 40, Yellow 5, or Blue 2, it’s time to reconsider. Your dog deserves food that nourishes, not just looks pretty in a bowl.
Have you checked your kibble’s ingredients lately? Let us know in the comments! 👇

Did you know that a high-protein, low-carb, grain-free diet can make a significant difference for working dogs—especially during their stressful training phases? 💪
In a 2019 study on guide dogs, dogs fed a grain-free, high-protein, low-carb diet showed:
✅ Better nutrient digestibility
✅ Less stool frequency (yes, fewer poos!)
✅ Improved body condition and weight
✅ Less food required for the same energy output
If you're still feeding commercial kibble high in carbs (some contain up to 60%!), consider making the switch to something more tailored for their health.
Need help? We’re here to guide you through the transition. 🐕💥
