For many people, our pets are our friends, family members, children, and often play a major role in our physical and emotional well-being. Pets are companions that improve our lives in countless ways, and deserve to be treated with the same love and care as anyone else.

Our pets deserve more than an annual check-up — they deserve the best individualized nutritional support and care year round. For many cats and dogs, this means the support of Standard Process Veterinary Formulas.



The key to a pet's optimal health is a diet rich in a variety of high-quality, complex nutrients. These whole-food-based veterinary formulas contain ingredients that provide a broad spectrum of crucial nutrients to support multiple organs and systems in the body.

A variety of different health concerns and diseases are common in certain breeds of dogs. Cancer, diabetes, kennel cough, arthritis, dental diseases, skin infections, parasites, UTIs, and soft tissue injuries (pulled muscles or joint sprains) are all common health issues that can be treated or prevented using Standard Process' line of pet supplements.

Purebred dogs in general are often more prone to having serious health problems than other dogs. Bulldogs often have heart and respiratory issues, dachshunds are more prone to musculoskeletal conditions due to their short legs, German shepherds and golden retrievers are often at risk of hip dysplasia, and so on.

Targeted immune, cardio, thyroid, renal, musculoskeletal, hepatic, enteric, and/or whole body support can have a huge impact on these diseases and health problems for your dog, and Standard Process has nutritional supplements to support the health of each of these areas.

Similarly, cats can be at risk of cancer, diabetes, feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV), heartworm, respiratory infections, kidney disease, and liver disease, and our clients have seen great results treating these diseases with Standard Process feline supplements.



Standard Process' line of veterinary formulas was introduced in 2002, and has become a go-to source of nutritional supplementation for both veterinarians and pet owners. All of Standard Process' supplements, including its veterinary formulas, are made of high-quality, whole-food ingredients that are as close as possible to how they are found in nature.

Dogs are omnivores, so the canine formulas contain a wider variety of ingredients that combine animal tissues and botanical materials in one formulation. Cats in comparison are obligate carnivores, so the feline formulas contain fewer ingredients and focus on animal tissues. These ingredient combinations provide both targeted and whole-body support.

Each pet's unique needs are an evolving function of breed, age, activity level, and health status. It can sometimes be difficult to know the best way to care for your pets, especially since they aren't able to tell you when something's wrong.
