Does my dog need collagen?

For dog owners, collagen is probably one of, if not the, most versatile supplements around. It not only benefits joint health but also the condition of your dog's skin and coat, plus its digestion and more.

Joint health 

The majority of your dog’s tendons, ligaments and cartilage are made from collagen. So, if your dog’s joint health is a priority – whether there is an existing joint concern, or you want to protect against future issues – then adding a pure source of collagen to your dog’s diet can only be helpful.

Skin & coat

If you are looking for a natural ingredient to hydrate your dog’s skin and add some shine to its coat, then collagen is the perfect choice. It is found in the dermis layer of the skin and helps to promote both skin elasticity and hair growth.

Digestion

Collagen plays a central role in repairing and maintaining the lining of the digestive tract. This helps to minimise the inflammation that can cause your dog pain and discomfort, and it also reduces the presence of unwanted symptoms such as diarrhoea and excessive wind.
