We carefully select ingredients that are safe and healthy for the vast majority of the dog population. But like humans, dogs are individuals and can have certain allergies and adverse reactions to almost any ingredient. We recommend that you introduce any new food or supplement slowly (1/4 to 1/2 dosage for Nuchews) for several days to ensure the health and safety of your dog.
Biotin, also known as vitamin B7, is an essential nutrient that is required by dogs for proper growth and development. B7 plays a critical role in the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, and is also involved in the production of hormones and the synthesis of fatty acids.
There are few precautions to be taken when using biotin supplements in dogs. It is generally considered a safe and well-tolerated nutrient. However, it is important to follow the dosage recommendations provided by the manufacturer or your veterinarian, as giving too much biotin can cause digestive upset in some dogs. It is always a good idea to consult with your veterinarian.
