Sunscreen for Dogs - 50g

Reasons your dog needs sunscreen:

1. Your dog has a bald spot

2. Your dog spends a lot of time outdoors

3. Your dog has short hair

4. Your dog has a light coloured nose

 Whole Food SPF Protection

You can’t get more natural than veggies and greens. Whole foods can help protect against UV radiation by boosting the antioxidant levels of the skin. While these foods can’t replace sunscreen for extended sun exposure, they can become part of your dog’s summer diet rotation.

Raw Meat

Unprocessed meat contains higher amounts of the amino acide histidine, which helps the skin protect itself from molecular damage through the production of urocanic acid.

Add In Red Fruits

Watermelon is high in the red, UV blocking carotenoid, lycopene.

Green Is Good

Give your dog added foods containing chlorophyll and astaxanthin. Chlorophyll, astaxanthin, and green leafy vegetables contain antioxidants called carotenoids. Carotenoids contain plant sunscreens and help protect the skin from UV radiation. Spinach, kale, carrots, collard greens, and broccoli are also great examples of add-ins rich in carotenoids.

Essential Fatty Acids

Make sure your dog is getting the right ratio of Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids. Supplementing the diet with hemp seed oil provides the perfect ratio of these acids. However, if you’re feeding a chicken based diet, use flaxseed oil instead. 

Ingredients: Unrefined Coconut Oil, Shea Butter, Olive Oil, Red Raspberry Seed Oil, Carrot Seed Oil, Lavender Oil.
