How much to give
1/2 tsp ~1 g (approximate) a day
Under about 12 lb, the amount is less than 1/8 tsp, so use a small pinch.
Based on 1/4 tsp per 25 lb of body weight, rounded to the nearest 1/8 tsp. Our label equates 1/2 tsp to about 1 g, so grams are approximate.
Ask your vet before starting, especially if your dog takes medication or has a health condition.
For cats: the weight guide above is for dogs. Begin with a small pinch and build gradually over one to two weeks, and ask your vet first.
