Canine Dosage & Administration

This page addresses any questions you may have about Rose-Hip Vital Canine, including dosage and administration, to set you and your best mate up for success.  

Our supplement has been thoroughly researched, and our recommendations are based on findings from over 30 scientific studies. Rose-Hip Vital is clinically proven to deliver comparative benefits to prescribed non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. To enjoy these benefits, we strongly recommend you follow the guidelines below.  

Firstly, welcome to the Rose-Hip Vital family! We're so happy that you and your best mate have found our superfood powder.  

If you're just starting your dog on Rose-Hip Vital, it's important to note the difference between our 'loading' and 'maintenance' doses.   

The Loading Dose – double the regular dose, taken for the first 3 weeks only 

The Maintenance Dose – the regular dose, which is continued after dropping from the loading dose  

Clinical studies into our supplement have indicated that doubling the maintenance dose for the first 3 weeks has a big difference on how quickly dogs show improvement. Because we want your dog to enjoy less pain & greater mobility as soon as possible, we recommend that all new canine users follow our loading dosage guidelines.  

Results are typically noticed at the end of this 3-week loading dose. 

If you know your dog is a fussy eater or has a sensitive stomach, we recommend introducing Rose-Hip Vital gradually. The best place to start is with a pinch of powder added to their regular food, and then gradually increasing the dosage once tolerance has been established.  

Keep increasing their daily dose until you reach the loading dose. Continue the loading dose for the recommended 3 weeks, and then drop your dog back to their maintenance dose.  

For particularly fussy eaters, we recommend mixing Rose-Hip Vital into your dog's favourite foods to sweeten the deal. Popular choices are mince, sardines, raw eggs or yoghurt – just remember to avoid anything hot, as this will undermine the effectiveness of your powder.
