Oralade is an isotonic drink for dogs and cats.
Oralade is a specially formulated Isotonic drink, made with a biologic chicken liver
flavour which gives it a high palatablity that dogs and cats love. Designed as a palatable solution to current Oral rehydration products for small animals which come in powder form, often contain citric acid and are normally mixed with tap water which can be non palatable. Oralade is perfect for use in Veterinary
practice to treat mild dehydration caused by vomiting or diarrhea and post operative recovery. Also it is recommended for early enteral nutrition and rehydration treatment in cases such as Pancreatitis and Parvovirus, where previous treatment would have recommended to fast the animal, Oralade enteral feeding from day 1, can help better recovery. Fast acting and highly palatable hydration makes Oralade a perfect choice for breeding bi***es, working or competing dogs such as agility and also for senior
or diabetic animals.

This hypoallergenic formula contains zero fat and only 1% protein; Oraladeยฎ RF+ requires no digestion, is easily absorbed, and is safe for use during all life stages. ๐ฆ
Did we mention it can be microwaved and poured over food to increase palatability or even frozen as a treat in warmer weather โ๏ธ๐
Last week the lovely Laura from visited our HQ to share with us their Leadership Programme.
Here at Oralade, we want our passion for animals and people to always be the centre of our companies values and culture. This leadership programme helped us reflect on just that and see how we can aspire to be even better going forward.
Thanks again to Laura for keeping us inspired and allowing us to redefine and focus our aspirations as a company, whilst staying true to our values and ethos as we grow๐

This week we put our very eager volunteer cooper up to the test ๐พ Water intake can be a struggle for so many dog owners. So we wanted to show just how effective Oralade Active can be when it comes to enticing your four legged companion to hydrate ๐ฆ
Needless to say, Cooper picked a clear winner and had no problem quenching that thirst ๐ง
Always have water readily available for your pets, but when it just wonโt do, get Active with hydration โก๏ธ
Oralade Active is not just for sporting dogs ๐
It works just as well for some good, wholehearted fun too ๐พ

It is difficult to put into words the immeasurable loss of such an influential and dedicated man. Simon dedicated his whole life to British Wildlife, working tirelessly to give animals the seconds chance that they deserve. It has been such a privilege to have supported Simon and his team over this last 6 years.
โIt has been so very sad to hear about Simonโs passing.
It has been a real honour to have known him and support his amazing work along with the team over this last 6 years.
I loved his passion for helping all animals and his no nonsense approach to life. Simon was a real character, a friend I will never forget.
Our support for wildlife will go on in his memory. I hope that together we can all help make his last wish come trueโ - Managing Director, Anthony Mackle.
From all of the team at Oralade we would like to send our deepest sympathies to all of Simonโs friends and family. 2 legged and 4 legged alike.

We couldnโt be more thrilled with the news we received today on little fox cubs Mavis and Scully ๐ฅน๐ฆ
You might have seen this little pair recently arrived into the care of Wildlife Aid with toxin ingestion. Both were collapsed on arrival and barely responsive.
Whilst one little cub responded to treatment in 24 hours, Mavis struggled to recover and continued to display serious neurological issues, including lack of coordination, constricted pupils and an inability to swallow. Thankfully due to the determination of all the team at Wildlife Aid and a little help from Oralade Mavis turned a corner.
We are thrilled to say this little pair have pulled through and made a full recovery!
Incredible work from everyone Wildlife Aid ๐ The thought that our products could help in their recovery and seeing animals thrive is one of the reasons why we love what we do ๐๐

โOralade is a great, highly palatable rehydration solution for wildlife. Its chicken flavour makes it perfect for carnivorous and omnivorous patients, helping restore hydration and providing a boost of essential electrolytes, amino acids and glucoseโ
We love to see Oralade being used in the support and rehabilitation of our wildlife.
Did you know Oralade could be used for carnivorous and omnivorous wildlife?
Why Oralade Active is the perfect Beach Beverage this Summer?๐โ๏ธ
1. It is an advanced electrolyte featuring 100% natural chicken flavour with essential amino acids - itโs literally made for active days such as these. Plus it tastes much better than salty sea water ๐ฆ
2. Itโs Isotonic formula quickly absorbs, replenishes essential fluids and electrolytes. Ideal for warmer weather and post beach runs ๐๏ธ
3. Contains higher carbohydrates for energy along with glycine and l-carnitine to aid muscle strength and recovery. Donโt just take our word for it, our customers swear by it for endurance and recovery time after an active day โก๏ธ

*some images may be distressing*
Luther is a Brittany that was rescued by SOS from Spain after being dumped by hunters ๐ข
He was skin and bone, so when Helen got him from the fosterer, it took time to build up his weight,muscle and help Luther with his separation anxiety.
โLuther is a typical Brittany in the fact that he has oodles of energy, excitable but very sensitive.
I introduced him to FlyBall, as I had retired my 2 English Springers.
Training has been slow and careful to get him to the point where he is now, which is absolutely loving the hype.
However, it became obvious that during a long day of racing, he would tire and not capable of maintaining a consistent time when running.
Now, I donโt mind at what speed he runs, but wanted to do everything that I could do to make sure he felt at his best each time he was to race.
I do all the warm up/cool down exercises/ magnetix coats etc etc.
However, since chatting to Dave Caddell Blue Sky Flyball Teams , tried the Oralade Active.
It absolutely made a differenceโฆ. He managed to maintain his usual speed throughout the day.
He loves the chicken flavour, ensures he drinks despite the excitement of the environment.
Thank you Oraladeโ.
Thank you Helen Smith for sharing Lutherโs story. We hope many others will consider rescuing a dog after seeing how Helen has given Luther the second chance at life he deserves, he is truly unrecognisable โค๏ธ
We would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the amazing company, Oralade for their incredibly generous donation of bottles of Oralade.
This product is amazing for dogs experiencing health issues such as diarrhea or sickness or even coming out of major surgery and needs some hydration.
We highly recommend it and use it constantly for the dogs in our sanctuary, as well as those who come to any of our stations.
Thank you, , for making a difference in the lives of these dogs ! ๐งก

โMovement: Moving more for our mental healthโ is the theme of Mental Health Awareness Week 2024, and have done just that!๐๐
We all know someone who battles with their mental health or are touched with struggles during our own lives.

This is a fox cub fighting for her life.
Rushed to us by the RSPCA, "Brooke" was so collapsed on arrival that despite both Paddy and volunteer vet, Mandy's, attempts, her blood pressure was too low to successfully receive an IV drip.
With her blood sugar at a worryingly low 0.7mmol/L (normal range being 5-6), the cub was at serious risk of going into hypoglycaemic shock. Sadly, this is a state that we see many cubs arriving in, at this time of year, and our vet team is pushed to the brink, trying and save each and everyone.
After administering both subcutaneous fluids, glucose gel, and offering Oralade we are now all keeping our fingers crossed that she was found in time to bring her back to a full recovery.
Please, help support more cubs, like Brooke, as we now enter the time of year that brings fewer bottle feeds and more illnesses and injuries.

In 2003 founder John Mackle who had built one of Irelands leading pet food manufacturing companies over 30 years, looked for new ways to improve animal health. His passion was to create a drink that would provide palatable ready to serve oral rehydration for dogs and cats.
Working closely with a Dutch chemist Simon Van Dalsem, whoโs own experience in pet nutrition, innovative product design and also experience in working on human isotonic sports drinks, led them to try several different formulas.
Together they designed the first isotonic drink for dogs and cats made with a highly palatable natural chicken flavour, purified water, some simple glucose and nutrition and free from preservatives.
In 2005 Anthony Mackle joined the team to take this unique formulation and create a brand and company to manufacture and launch it to the world.
Quickly it was noticed by veterinarians working in critical care who saw itโs potential and from here we developed our original brand Oraladeยฎ and we havenโt looked back since.
Working closely with Key opinion veterinarians and nutritionists from around the world, we constantly strive for further product development and improvement.
Today Oralade is distributed in over 28 countries and growing steadily each year and opening new markets. At Macahl animal health we offer our customers the best quality products, service and support they deserve. With UFAS accreditation in manufacture of compound feeds and soon to attain SALSA accreditation for manufacture of complimentary feeds, we guarantee quality and traceability on ingredients from origin to bottle.
