Vertex Canine Essentials High-Performance Dog Supplement – Predigested Liver, Whey & Egg Protein – Muscle Growth, Recovery, Fertility & Milk Production – Active, Working & Breeding Dogs, 10 lbs (4.5 kg)

Who Can Benefit from This Supplement

From the rugged outback to the show ring, Australian dogs are known for their stamina and spirit. Whether your mate is a working dog on the farm, a champion in agility, or a beloved family pet who loves a long hike, their body needs extra support to stay in top form. Vertex Canine Essentials is specifically formulated for dogs with higher nutritional demands—like working and performance dogs, breeding mums and studs, and those recovering from illness or injury. Even recreational athletes—dogs that join you for runs, footy, or play sessions—can benefit from the joint and muscle support this supplement provides.

• Working and Performance Dogs: Dogs in hunting, agility, herding, or other demanding activities may benefit from muscle support and faster recovery.
• Breeding Dogs: Pregnant and nursing mums need extra nutrients for healthy pups and milk production. Stud dogs may also get a boost from the nutrient-rich formula.
• Active and Sporting Dogs: Even casual athletes—dogs that love a game of fetch or a jog—can enjoy better joint flexibility and energy.
• Dogs Recovering from Illness or Injury: The highly digestible protein and targeted nutrients may help rebuild strength during convalescence.

While Vertex suits all breeds and ages, it's especially valuable for dogs with higher nutritional needs. Always check with your vet before starting a new supplement, particularly for dogs with health conditions or on medication.

Key Ingredients and Their Benefits

Vertex combines a powerful blend of nutrients to support canine health and performance. Here's a closer look at what makes it effective:

• Predigested Liver: Liver is packed with vitamins A, B, and iron. The predigestion process breaks proteins into smaller peptides for easier absorption, aiding muscle repair and energy.
• Whey Protein: A complete protein rich in BCAAs that can help muscle protein synthesis and reduce exercise damage.
• Egg Protein: High biological value, providing essential amino acids that complement whey and liver.
• HMB (β-Hydroxy β-Methylbutyrate): A leucine metabolite that may reduce muscle breakdown during intense activity and speed recovery.
• Glucosamine and Chondroitin: Key for joint health, they help maintain cartilage and flexibility, especially in active or older dogs.
• Probiotics: Support digestive balance and nutrient absorption, especially during stress or diet change.
• Essential Vitamins and Minerals: A broad spectrum to boost overall health, energy, and immunity.

How to Use Vertex Canine Essentials

Vertex is a powder that mixes easily with your dog's regular food. The recommended daily dose depends on your dog's weight and activity level. Use Australian standard tablespoons (20 mL each):

• For dogs under 9 kg: 1 tablespoon (20 mL) per day
• For dogs 9–22 kg: 2 tablespoons (40 mL) per day
• For dogs over 22 kg: 3–4 tablespoons (60–80 mL) per day

Start with the lower end and adjust as needed. Sprinkle over dry kibble or mix with wet food; many dogs enjoy the gravy-like texture. For picky eaters, this palatability boost can help insure consistent intake. Always provide fresh water.

Why Your Dog May Need a High-Performance Supplement

Active dogs—whether they're working companions, hunting partners, or competitive athletes—place extraordinary demands on their bodies. Even the best commercial diets can fall short in meeting the increased nutritional requirements for muscle maintenance, joint integrity, and sustained energy. Vertex Canine Essentials fills those gaps with a concentrated blend of highly digestible proteins, essential vitamins, and targeted nutrients that support peak performance and overall vitality. Its unique combination of predigested liver, whey, and egg protein offers bioavailable amino acids crucial for lean muscle development and recovery—whether your dog is training for a comp, recovering from exertion, or just needing an extra nutritional boost.
