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.
Folic acid, also known as vitamin B9, is an essential nutrient that is required by dogs for proper growth and development. B9 plays a critical role in the production of red blood cells, synthesis of DNA, and the metabolism of proteins.
There are few precautions to be taken when using folic acid supplements in dogs. It is generally considered to be 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 folic acid can cause digestive upset in some dogs. It is always a good idea to consult with your veterinarian. They can help you determine the appropriate dosage and ensure that the supplement is appropriate for your dog's specific needs.
