How do you give your dog the liquid? Can I add it to his dry food, or will he "drink" it by itself?

I add it to dry food and she loves it. It really does help her hips; she is more comfortable because of the anti-inflammatory properties which that allows her mobility to be better. I paid a lot more for this product at the health food store so it was a nice surprise to see it on amazon and at this price.

I mix it in with the food, dry or wet food my dogs seem to like it and don't mind me mixing it in. I did forget once and offered it to my lab after his meal and he gladly licked it up.

I'm not sure about drinking it since your only supposed to give them a teaspoon or tablespoon depending on the size of your dog. I simply spread the tablespoon over the top of there food everyday. If you feed your dog out of a feeder than you will have to be creative. If you put food in a bowl for them daily then it's easier.

I have always added about two tablespoons of canned dog food but i imagine winston would eat it with the dry too,hope that helps.

I sprinkle it on her wet food. She gets wet in the morning and dry in the evening. I guess you could try different things. She may eat it plain.

I put it in wet dog food. It started off like it was going to work, but now isn't helping at all. Does this sometimes happen? I'm not sure I want to continue with it after this bottle is gone if it is not working.

We had to add canned green beans & other vegies to our dogs weight loss diet...blah! But I just sprinkle a scoop of this on top the green beans,shake it up (no water added) & he scarfs every bit up & licks his bowl clean!!

Yes, this is what I do for my Doberman. She eats dry kibble and I sprinkle it on her food every morning. She is also fed in a slow feeder bowl and has not had as many tummy upsets as she had prior to starting proviable.

Our cats would probably eat around the powder if given the choice. We mix it into the wet food. As a thought you could try getting a squirt bottle and give the wet food one spray and then sprinkle the powder on it would stick to the dry food that way. Just don't over do it with the squirt bottle or it will end up all mushy.

You could make it work, but one problem I see is you will constantly be refilling it for that size animal. If that is not a problem, then you would be ok. I don't know how much water your dog needs, but if you were to leave for a couple of days he might drink it dry, which is not good for him, nor for your pump which you can ruin by running it out of water. Hope this helps.

It really depends on the size, age and breed of your dog. However, squeeze about a half inch to one inch on your finger and let the dog lick it off. If he won't take it, which is very unlikely, just put it in the side of his mouth. Nutri-Cal is amazing!!!

Because the dog food is dehydrated (and completely dried), it remains fresh. It can be fed either in its dry form (I break it up into almost a powder) or it can be reconstituted. Highly recommended!

Depends on how much you add to the dogs food each time. I was hydrating some in a glass jar, kept in the refrigerator and then mixing in about 3 tablespoons in each meal. Neither of my dogs cared for it much.

I put it in a small amt of wet food so that he gets the full dose. Then I give him the rest of the wet food. Would suggest you squeeze it onto a small amt of dry food with a little water also to cut the taste...

I think your dog would enjoy this one. Even more if your dog loves water. My 2 puppies love this and even more today because of the snow outside. I would give it a try and if he turns his face away maybe put a little bit of peanut butter under it. Good luck!

Gosh, I haven't tried that. It may help if you use a smaller size than the dog needs for food. Is the gulping a problem after exercise or all the time? If it causes regurgitation you may want to just give a little at a time. Excess thirst can be a sign of health issues so it might be best to talk to your Vet first. Sometimes dogs just drink like blenders and are not actually getting as much as the noise and dribbles indicate.Good luck!

I suppose so, but it's all slobbery. Better to pour out just what you think the dog needs, then add more if it's not enough than to pour slobbery water back into the canteen.

Been using it for almost a year now and I just sprinkle it on top of the dry food and shake it around a bit to mix it up and he eats it up along with the food with no trouble. I follow the guidelines on how much to give him on the back of the package. I never give it to him without food. Might upset the stomach.

Dry by itself is all you need. It is complete nutrition. I used to mix canned with dry years ago until Vet told me that canned causes tartar and gum disease. The dogs love it as it is.

I usually put mine on her food. I thought putting it in her water would dilute to much but you can try it.
