sandymere 8,261 Posted June 27, 2017 Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 (edited) Supplements can't make up for a bad diet and in the main are pointless, many are just excreted by the kidneys so just lead to expensive piss. Some may actually do more harm than good. bit of background here. http://skeptvet.com/Blog/2012/09/herbs-and-supplements-for-pets-what-is-a-vet-to-do/ Edited June 29, 2017 by sandymere 2 Quote Link to post
