Natural Bone Calcium is a whole food calcium supplement for dogs and cats. This 100% natural, bone derived calcium complex provides all of the elements present in healthy bone tissue, in their correct physiological ratios. These nutrients that are so important to the health of your dog or cat include naturally occurring collagen, growth factors, and a broad range of trace minerals found in real bone. Whole bone calcium is low-temperature processed and derived exclusively from grass-fed, pasture-raised cattle.
Why is this a good calcium choice for my dog or cat?
- Because it provides a natural source of calcium and other minerals. Most sources of calcium used in pet foods like egg shells or isolated calcium sources, like calcium carbonate, are missing, or have low ratios of, important mineral like phosphorus. This makes it hard to properly balance your dog's minerals - especially puppies and pregnant/nursing animals. Natural bone calcium also contains amino acids, growth factors that are missing from other sources of calcium and natural vitamin D, which is essential for regulating the calcium and phosphorus balance.
- Compared to bone meal that is heated with high temperatures, our Natural Bone Calcium is low-temperature, air dried without acids, chemicals and bleaches. This gentle drying maintains the naturally occurring proteins, minerals and growth factors found in bone. This makes our Natural Bone Calcium a highly bioavailable and natural source of calcium for dogs and cats.
- Provides a safe way to provide natural bone calcium to animals with dental issues. No more cracked teeth or splintering issues when feeding your dog bones. Our Natural Bone Calcium comes in a convenient powder form and can be used with raw or cooked food.
