How to Use Kelp

Kelp is powerful, so a little goes a long way. Sprinkle it over your dog's regular meals to boost nutrition and support daily health.

  • Daily Use: Add a small amount to one or both meals.
  • Dental Support: Use consistently for fresher breath.
  • Mix With Other Toppers: Works well with pumpkin, goat's milk, or Zoomie Dust.
  • Great for Picky Eaters: Adds a savoury, natural flavour.

Consistency is key — small daily amounts deliver the best results.

Iodine Awareness

Kelp is naturally rich in iodine, which supports healthy thyroid function. Because iodine is a powerful mineral, it's important to use kelp in appropriate amounts and avoid over‑supplementation from multiple iodine sources.

If your dog has known thyroid conditions or is on a specialised diet, it's always best to check with a veterinarian before adding iodine‑rich foods.

🐶 A small daily sprinkle is all most dogs need.
