Recommended Puppy Supplies

These are my suggestions based on hours of research and years of personal experience with my Corgis.

Each of these products are recommended for specific reasons pertaining to your Corgi’s health and longevity. If you choose not to use them, please do thorough research and make sure you are picking high quality food, treats and supplements for your Corgi puppy!

Be aware of product recalls and educate yourself on canine nutrition.

Prevention is key to slowing age related issues, immune problems and stopping illness or death from poor quality control or unsafe products.

For that reason, and from personal experience,

I recommend you use the products for the life of your puppy.

You may use the links below to order food, treats, supplements, toys, and the NuVet vitamins.

Daily food and supplement-

I consider the first two items mandatory!

You should order your puppy’s food and supplements several weeks before bringing him/her home.

If you don’t, your puppy will not have what it is accustomed to eating and will get an upset tummy and possible runny poop.

PawTree Real Chicken and Oatmeal Recipe.

Daily food- pawTree Real Chicken and Oatmeal.

Your puppy is eating pawTree Real Chicken and Oatmeal kibble. I chose this food because of the quality of the ingredients like real meat and Omega-3 and Omega-6 Fatty Acids for a healthy skin & coat.

I also like what it doesn’t have in it-animal by products, corn, wheat, artificial colors, flavors or preservatives.

This is a nutrient dense food meaning you feed less which equates to less poop.

My dogs love the taste and I love how great they look on it.

Daily supplement- NuVet K-9 wafers

Your Corgi puppy is getting a NuVet Plus K-9 wafer daily to support its immature immune system (very important during puppy vaccination time) and help boost it during times of stress such as going to a new home. My adult dogs also benefit from it because it contains vitamins, minerals and antioxidants which promote a longer lifespan by fighting the effects of free radicals. It is highly recommended that you give your puppy a daily wafer, it is half a wafer for 5 pounds and under and a whole wafer daily for over 5 pounds. I like giving my dogs a “treat” that also has health benefits.

While these are not mandatory,

I highly recommend the following treats and supplements…

As I said before, I like to treat my dogs while ensuring great health. These are items I use to add dietary variety and to prevent or address specific health issues. There are many supplements available for dogs but these are some of the ones I feel are needed most. If you ever have any other issues with your dog please contact me for an individual recommendation.

Food topper - pawPairings

PawPairings are food toppers that you sprinkle on your dog’s regular food to add different tastes, boost nutrition and add a variety of protein sources without causing an upset tummy. There are 10 seasonings to choose from and each contains a freeze-dried meat protein, 8 Superfoods and a powerful blend of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. I like PawParings because they are useful for picky eaters, help avoid mealtime boredom, provide different protein sources without changing the diet, and my dogs enjoy the variety.

Healthy treats- pawTreats

Treats are important for bonding with your dog and for use as a training aid. Most treats available at the grocery store are unhealthy and made with cheap ingredients. PawTreats are actually good for your pet and I like the variety of flavors available. They are easy to break into smaller pieces for puppy training. Plus my dogs go nuts for them! Trust me, they know who gives treats and that’s who they love the most!

Omega 3 supplement- Wild Salmon Oil or Salmon Drops

PawTree Wild Alaskan Salmon & Pollock Oil (comes in a pump bottle) or Salmon Oil Drops (a soft chew) are high in Omega 3 fatty acids which are used to prevent excessive shedding, dry skin, dull coat, itching, irritated skin, hot spots and seasonal allergies in both dogs and cats. I use the pawTree brand because the source and the manner in which the fish is processed makes a difference in the quality of the oil and in how effective it is for your pet. Plus, for the quality of the product it is very reasonably priced when compared to other products of the same effectiveness. It’s up to you whether a daily soft chew or the oil which is pumped into the food is more convenient. Both are readily consumed by my dogs.

Probiotic Supplement- Gastro Pro Plus

Gastro Pro Plus contains prebiotics, probiotics, digestive enzymes and digestive herbs that are great for helping your dog or puppy not have diarrhea from stressful situations. This is helpful when taking a new puppy home, traveling with your dog, boarding your dog or any situation that causes stress. I also give this supplement to any dog that takes antibiotics to restore good intestinal flora.

Joint Supplement- NuJoint Plus Supplement

NuJoint is a supplement to support bone and joints in canines of all ages. It contains MSM (shown to reduce the rigidity of cells in the soft tissues of the body thus reducing pressure), Glucosamine (helps animals synthesize new cartilage and therefore alleviates discomfort from wear and injuries), Chondroitin (attracts and holds fluid within cartilage tissue helping to lubricate joints and increase mobility) and Vitamin C (supports immune function, promotes cartilage growth and tissue repair).
