This page contains everything you need to know about dosage and administration of Rose-Hip Vital Canine, so that you and your best mate are set up for success.  

To ensure the best results from our powder, it’s important your dog follows our recommended dosage guidelines. These are based on extensive data from over 30 scientific studies. Rose-Hip Vital has been clinically-proven to deliver comparative pain relief benefits to traditional non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), when our recommended usage guidelines are adhered to.  

Welcome to the Rose-Hip Vital family! If you’re introducing your dog to Rose-Hip Vital for the first time, understanding the difference between the loading and maintenance dose is key. They’re outlined here: 

The Loading Dose: double the maintenance dose, taken for the first three weeks  

The Maintenance Dose: the regular dose, to be taken after the loading dose finishes 

Studies into our supplement indicate that starting with an initial loading dose accelerates your dog’s joint health & mobility improvement. Because we want your dog to be happy and pain-free as quickly as possible, we recommend that all new users start with our loading dose.

Rose-Hip Vital Canine is typically well-received, but if you happen to have a fussy eater, or a dog with a sensitive stomach, we recommend starting small and gradually increasing the daily dose as tolerance is established.  

We recommend introducing a pinch or two initially, and incrementally increasing this dose daily until you reach the loading dose. At this point, remain on the loading dose for 3 weeks, before dropping back down to the maintenance dose.  

Rose-Hip Vital has been extensively researched and has clinical backing, making it an incredibly safe supplement for your dog. It has no contraindications, meaning it can be safely introduced alongside existing medication. It also has no known side effects, unlike other NSAIDs, which are associated with gastrointestinal and cardiovascular discomfort.
