FAQ's

Does my dog need Vitamin C?

During normal exercise and when dogs experience joint stiffness, free radicals are produced, which can cause further damage. Vitamin C is an antioxidant and key ingredient in our YuMOVE Joint Care supplements for dogs. It works synergistically with Vitamin E, meaning that the power of each ingredient is enhanced when combined, to neutralise free radicals and help maintain joint mobility.

Are there side effects of Vitamin C for dogs?

Vitamin C is generally very well tolerated by dogs, and no serious side effects would be expected. However, like with any new food product or ingredient, some dogs may experience slight tummy upsets, including wind and loose stools.

What’s the right dosage of Vitamin C for dogs?

Our product development team, many of whom are qualified veterinary professionals themselves, carefully select ingredients and ingredient amounts in each product to suit different pets.

In our YuMOVE Joint Care supplements for dogs, the amount of Vitamin C varies depending on the product and needs of the dog. For example, YuMOVE Joint Care for Young Dogs has more Vitamin C than YuMOVE Joint Care for Adult Dogs.

What is the best source of Vitamin C for dogs?

Dogs can synthesise their own Vitamin C in the liver, so it isn’t considered an essential part of their diet the way it is for humans.

That said, there’s evidence to support the inclusion of Vitamin C in dogs’ diets, especially those that need additional support for immunity, joint health, and recovery during times of stress, illness, or ageing.

For most healthy dogs on a balanced diet, extra Vitamin C isn’t necessary, but in some cases, it can be a helpful supplement. Natural sources like blueberries, strawberries and broccoli can provide an extra antioxidant boost. However, it's hard to know how much you're adding to their diet.

A good alternative is to utilise supplements alongside your dog’s food. Look for products that state how much Vitamin C is included, and always consult your vet before making changes to your pet's diet.
