Wheatgrass for Dogs and Cats

on

Wheatgrass for dogs and cats is very beneficial for them.

Wheatgrass is a type of grass that is packed with nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. It's also a rich source of dietary fibre, which can help to promote digestive health.

Some pet owners choose to grow their own wheatgrass at home and offer it as a treat or dietary supplement to their pets. However, it's important to note that some pets may have difficulty digesting wheatgrass. Especially if they have a history of digestive issues or food sensitivities. 

To ensure the correct dosage, it is always a good idea to give your pet wheatgrass via a specifically formulated supplement, such as PetWell’s THRIVE - Immune Support supplement.
