This dog is so malnourished, has round/whipworms, and just found out hes got kennel cough. I'd like to start giving him supplements ASAP.

I hear a lot about vitamin c & glucosamine, so i'd like to know how much he should get (hes about 80lbs but SHOULD be atleast 100).

I'd like to give him something to support general immune system too. Does anyone have any suggestions on vitamins and dosage?

I give Ester-C 1000mg and Glucosamine 1500mg daily.
I have in the last year taken my dogs off the glucosamine pills and buy MSM at the feed store for horses. It is a sugar constistency type and i dont have to crush pills or hide them, it lasts forever since these guys are smaller than a horse. It made things easier for me.

The Ester-C is for lubricating joints and immune system.

I wouldnt overload on supplements just the ones that are needed.

There is NOTHING worse then over doing Vitamins..lol...I've done it...Trust me-Extra YuckY!

Here is another supplement that I REALLY like and it's very simple to give-Dogs love it. Check out -link- 800-474-7044.
I stared giving this to my pack a few months back, right when everyone started to blow out their coats-Stopped the major de-shed for the year-Not spots on the coats either!!! I have been very happy with it-Also great for a prenatel.
