quick question—has anyone tried Denamarin for their pups? Thinking of getting some for Bella but not sure if it’s really necessary. Is this a thing or am I just overthinking her doggie diet while chilling on the couch?

Hi there! I totally get why you're concerned about Bella's health. Denamarin is actually a supplement that can be beneficial for dogs with liver issues, as it helps support liver function. It's mainly used when there are signs of liver disease or if your vet has suggested it based on blood work.

Here are some symptoms you might look for if Bella needs liver support:

• Vomiting or diarrhea
• Lack of appetite or weight loss
• Increased thirst and urination
• Lethargy or weakness
• Yellowing of the gums or whites of the eyes (jaundice)

If Bella shows any of these symptoms, it's best to contact a vet. However, if she's just her regular happy self, you might not need to worry too much.

If you notice her condition worsening or she exhibits any of these symptoms more severely, it could be an emergency. Things like severe vomiting, noticeable jaundice, or a drastic change in behavior should definitely prompt a visit to the vet.

At home, ensure she's getting plenty of water and keep her diet balanced. Monitor her closely for any changes, especially if she's gotten into something she shouldn't have eaten. Just as an FYI, always watch out for potential toxins like chocolate, grapes, or human medications – even small amounts can be harmful.

If you're unsure or your pet’s symptoms worsen, it's best to book a call with a vet on Dial A Vet for professional advice.
