How To Get Dogs To Take Collagen Powder

How To Get Dogs To Take Collagen Powder

Pawable collagen powder has a meaty aroma, rather than a pharmaceutical scent. Which means that most dogs will happily take their collagen.

In fact many dogs will happily lick their bowl clean to ensure they have eaten every last grain of collagen.

However, we know that some dogs can be more choosy with their food.

So here are our quick tips to help you get your dog to take their collagen:

 

1/ Introduce collagen powder slowly

Introduce your Pawable collagen in the first few feeds at a half or one-third of the recommended serving size.

 

2/ Ensure the collagen is well mixed in their food. 

Do not offer as a pile of powder on top of their usual food! 

Collagen mixes well with wet food. With dry food you will find that a little shake of the bowl distributes the collagen more evenly throughout. A light splash of water also helps it adhere to the biscuits.

 

3/ Add an irresistible treat

For selective eaters, you might want to provide a little extra treat topping their first collagen meals. Use whatever your dog finds irresistible, a light sprinkling of cheese, an egg, dog friendly gravy etc. 

 

4/ Slowly increase serving size

For further feedings slowly increase the collagen serving size and decrease the added treat.

 

How else can you serve collagen powder to your dog?

 

If your dog won’t accept collagen mixed in their meals using the tips above or if you have an unwell senior who doesn’t empty a food bowl anyway then you can try mixing Pawable collagen as a treat.

A tablespoon of natural yogurt or peanut butter (make sure it’s dog friendly/xylitol  free) mixed with their collagen works well.

Alternatively we have some customers that mix their Pawable collagen in water and syringe it in.

Or if you are feeling creative you will find many dog treat recipes online to which you can simply add your collagen serving. Collagen is thermostable which means you can cook and bake with it without affecting its efficacy.

With a little patience and experimenting most will be able to get a choosy eater to eat their collagen powder.

 

And don't forget if all else fails Pawable will accept returns (even for opened packs) within 90 days of purchase for a full refund.
