Animal Essentials Sea-Cal - Pure Seaweed Calcium Powder for Dogs with Magnesium, Joint Supplement for Dogs & Cats for Healthy Bones & Teeth, Joint Health, Vegan Icelandic Seaweed Calcium - 12 oz

My picky mini golden doodle (15lbs) liked it! I put the recommended dose (1/4 tsp) for his weight directly into his mouth (mid tongue), immediately very gently held his snout close and waited literally 5 seconds until he swallowed it and that was it, no fuss, no stress, it dissolved quick and easy! What a wonderful and highly absorbable formula! I’m so glad that I found this natural, clean, high quality calcium supplement for my pooch, without additives or any other additional fillers/or ingredients added and with third-party testing for purity/contaminants. and from an ethically sourced and sustainable business. Couldn’t ask for anything better in a supplement product! Thank you Animal Essentials!

I've been using for the last several years with my homemade dog food. I sprinkle a scoopful for every 2 lb that we cook, easy to use, no real smell and probably tasteless to my dogs. This is certainly needed to add calcium and all those amazing micronutrients into their diets. This ensures my homemade food is balanced and proper nutrition. When I first started making dog food I made some mistakes, and adding the supplements and other vitamins etc was one of those. After consulting with a holistic veterinarian she recommended this additive, and I've been using ever since and my dogs seem to continue to be healthy.

New packaging good quality and looks amazing love the new look, I was so close to stop buying it because of the old packaging my dogs joints do not pop like they used to.

We have been buying this product for a year now and have had great results. This is added as a supplement in all natural dog food we make for our own dogs. As one of our dogs had many heart, respiratory and skin issues, two separate vets linked it to old age and nothing more they could do. on the verge of having to put her down, we turned to the idea of all natural raw diet for dogs we heard of, which consists of nothing more than raw meat (as the wild animals eat) vegetables, rice and/or potatoes, and a couple added supplements as in this calcium supplement. Our dog made a complete turn around within a couple weeks of the diet. She is back to playing with lots of energy and her hair has grown back in. Her heart still has issues, but is much better than ever before. Of course this supplement alone is not the cure, but it is an essential part in their diet. There is many different brands of seaweed calcium, but this is the one we chose and have had positive results, so we will always continue to purchase this brand.

Seems like a good quality product but if you are looking for something to add to your dog's food that has already been made then it will be quite difficult to figure out the dosage. I wanted this product to add needed calcium to my dog's homemade food as not all my meat has bone in it and his dental health is too poor for him to chew raw bones. I had already made a batch of food, that has no bone in it, and portioned it out in the freezer so I wanted to be able to have a supplement that I could just sprinkle on his food when he eats. Unfortunately, the only serving recommendations given on the container say to add so much to however many pounds of food and no recommendations for how much to feed per meal per the dog/cat's weight so I have no idea how much to add at meal time. I am just going to give a tiny sprinkle I guess as he needs the supplementation and I have already prepared this batch of food and can no longer add in the calcium per however many pounds of food I made. I can do this next time I make a batch of food without bone meal already in it but there really should be some sort of feeding recommended based on the dog's or cat's weight so the supplement can be added to already prepared meals.

I feed my small dogs raw and use this as a calcium supplement. My dogs don't have an issue with the taste when I mix with their food. Highly recommend. Well priced.

Made our dogs food at home and added this to it. Wanted to make sure we kept him healthy

Use this as a supplement for my dogs meal! Happy with it so far!

This is a great product - very easy to use and mixes well with homemade food - no smell, and my dog has not noticed any difference in her meals and eats it up as before - I like the idea that it is very easy digestible for the dogs since mine has had a pancreas problem in the past. I will order this product again! Product came packaged well and not tampered with - HerbsPro - very pleased.

OVERVIEW: Animal Essentials Seaweed Calcium is an exceptional, filler-free mineral supplement. It is an essential tool for anyone formulating balanced homemade dog food or cat diets, particularly for pets with severe allergies or significant medical complications. THE CHALLENGE: ANAPHYLAXIS & DENTAL SURGERY 🐶🩺🏥 The experience was truly harrowing. My much-loved dog suffered a life-threatening anaphylactic reaction to a hidden, corn-derived ingredient while under veterinary hospital care. My confidence was profoundly shaken—if professionals couldn't avoid hidden allergens, how could I? 🙏🏻💔 The stakes were incredibly high because of significant complications following a fractured premolar. The surgical incision had come apart, leaving a gaping cavity wound in his gum that made his usual raw food diet impossible. I had to pivot to a soft, homemade dog food recovery plan that met strict FEDIAF compliant recipes without irritating the sensitive gum tissue. WHY I CHOSE ANIMAL ESSENTIALS I needed to know if corn-derived maltodextrin was used as a clumping agent in their machinery. Their customer service was a lifeline—patient, knowledgeable, and transparent. I was reassured this natural seaweed calcium wasn't just clean; it was safe for my pet. They confirmed this is a 100% pure seaweed calcium (Lithothamnium) with zero hidden fillers. PRODUCT BENEFITS & USAGE TIP • Superior Sourcing: I favour this over bone meal due to its cleaner, sustainable sourcing. • Mineral Synergy: Unlike generic calcium carbonate or powdered eggshell, this naturally includes magnesium, which is vital for a balanced calcium to phosphorus ratio. • Odourless & Pure: It is a finely milled, plant-based calcium for dogs and cats. While a tiny minority of the absolute pickiest eaters may object, most pets find this incredibly easy to accept. It blends perfectly into raw meat, wet food, or home-cooked toppers. 💡 Usage Tip: The ultra-fine, grit-free texture makes it an ideal calcium supplement for recovery meals following canine oral surgery. It ensures accurate dosing without irritating sensitive gum tissue. 🚨7-MONTH UPDATE I have been using this supplement for seven months and my dog is fully recovered from his surgery. • His gum wound healed in 1/3 of the time the vet expected. ❤️‍🩹 • His lab work is reassuring 🧪🔬: his senior blood panels came back absolutely "spot on" and perfectly balanced. The maths of formulation is so much simpler with this product. 🏆 VERDICT Whether you are starting a BARF diet or improving your pet's bone and joint health, this is the vital piece of the home formulation puzzle. It provides the assurance you need that you are providing perfectly balanced bowls, made with love. 🐾❤️

I bought this product as it was recommended by a dog nutritionist as a calcium supplement to homemade food. I was worried that my fussy eater wouldn’t like the flavour but I’m pleased that he doesn’t mind it at all.

It does what it says

Add this product into my dog’s homemade food.
