    Wait and see

    Bailey had his teeth cleaned professionally at the vet 3 weeks ago so he is starting with perfect teeth. We have used the plaque control powder for 2 nights and he happily eats it sprinkled on his food. Last time his plaque started building up after a couple of months so we will see how good the powder is over the next few months.

    Massively improved dogs redness and itching

    We used the pre/probiotic to help manage redness in our Pugaliers paws and yeast in ears. We had given this to our dog in Australia and then moved him to the UK. We were so pleased to see they are now shipping to the UK. Our dog has never seemed bothered by the taste and I could not believe after years of cytopoint injections and different foods this felt like a magic solution!

    My dog is on his second packet of the plaque control and it definitely makes a difference, especially to his breath. I can't tell if his teeth are any cleaner but definitely it helps his internal system. I have just purchased the Probiotic powder as he has a sensitive tummy so I am looking forward to seeing if this helps. Very happy overall. Yes it takes longer to deliver than some of the others so there could be room for improvement. 🐾🐾

    Clinical Evidence

    Petz Park's strongest published canine clinical evidence is for the dental supplement ingredient Ascophyllum nodosum (Norwegian Kelp), which is the active ingredient in Plaque Control for Dogs.

    Effects of Edible Treats Containing Ascophyllum nodosum on the Oral Health of Dogs: A Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Single-Center Study

    Gawor J, Jank M, Jodkowska K, Klim E, Svensson UK. Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2018. 5:168.

    Study design: Double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled, single-centre, 60 dogs, 90 days.

    Oral administration of edible treats containing Ascophyllum nodosum significantly reduced plaque index and calculus index compared with placebo over 90 days. Dogs in the treatment group also showed significantly lower volatile sulfur compound concentrations and better oral health status on OHI and GBI indices. Calculus index was reduced by 35 percent at day 30 and that reduction was sustained to day 90. Volatile sulfur compounds were 35 and 46 percent lower at days 60 and 90, both statistically significant. Differences in the oral health index (18, 23 and 25 percent at days 30, 60 and 90) were not statistically significant. The paper reports no percentage plaque reduction; the plaque index difference favoured the supplement and was significant at day 90.

    The study tested a specific commercial product (ProDen PlaqueOff) in treat form, not the Petz Park formulation. Petz Park's Plaque Control delivers the same ingredient class (Ascophyllum nodosum) at 1000mg per scoop in powder form. Subsequent research by the same authors concluded powder is the most effective delivery format for this ingredient.

    View study (DOI: 10.3389/fvets.2018.00168)

    Additional published evidence for each ingredient used in Petz Park formulations is available on the individual ingredient pages in the Ingredients Library.
