Canine Whelping Calcium Paste
A specially crafted formula that combines Calcium Propionate, Calcium Lactate, and Vitamin D3 to enhance calcium absorption for breeding bitches. This improved blend is designed to be gentler on the stomach while effectively providing essential calcium support during the whelping process.
Key Components:
-
Calcium Propionate: Calcium propionate is a form of calcium that's readily absorbed by the body. It plays a crucial role in maintaining proper muscle function, including uterine muscles, which are vital during labor and whelping.
-
Calcium Lactate: Calcium lactate is another bioavailable source of calcium, ensuring that the body can efficiently utilize this essential mineral. Adequate calcium levels are essential not only for muscle function but also for blood clotting and nerve transmission.
-
Vitamin D3: Vitamin D3 is a vital component in calcium absorption. It helps regulate calcium levels in the blood and assists in the efficient utilization of dietary calcium. In the context of whelping, it ensures that the calcium provided is effectively absorbed and used by the body.
The Benefits of Canine Whelping Calcium Paste:
-
Enhanced Calcium Absorption: By combining different forms of calcium with Vitamin D3, this paste optimizes calcium absorption. This is particularly important during whelping when the breeding bitch's calcium needs are significantly elevated.
-
Gentle on the Stomach: The new and improved formula takes into consideration the potential sensitivity of the bitch's stomach during whelping. It aims to provide the necessary calcium without causing gastric upset.
-
Support for Uterine Muscles: Adequate calcium levels are crucial for proper uterine muscle function during labor. This paste ensures that the breeding bitch has the calcium required for effective contractions.
-
Overall Well-being: Proper calcium levels also support other bodily functions, such as blood clotting and nerve function. This contributes to the overall well-being of the breeding bitch during the whelping process.
Canine Whelping Calcium Paste is a testament to the dedication to the health and safety of both the mother and her puppies during the critical whelping phase. It acknowledges the unique requirements of breeding bitches and addresses them with a formulation that optimizes calcium support and minimizes any potential discomfort. It's a valuable tool in the whelping kit, ensuring that the birthing process is as smooth and safe as possible for your canine companion.
