Top 5 Supplements Every Senior Dog Should Be Taking
As your loyal pup enters their golden years, their health needs start to change. Just like humans, senior dogs require extra support to stay comfortable, mobile, and mentally sharp. The right daily supplements can make all the difference in helping your older dog feel their best—and live a longer, happier life.
At MedsMeHappy, we’re passionate about proactive pet health. Whether your dog is slowing down a bit or simply aging gracefully, here are the top 5 supplements every senior dog should be taking to stay wagging well into their golden years.
1. Liver & Brain Support with SAM-e and Milk Thistle
As dogs age, their liver becomes less efficient at filtering toxins—and cognitive function can start to decline. That’s why SilymarinAdvanced, our vet-recommended liver support supplement, is a must-have for senior dogs.
Key benefits:
- Supports liver detox and function
- Promotes cognitive clarity and mood
- Formulated with SAM-e, Silybin (milk thistle extract), and Phosphatidylcholine for maximum absorption and effect
👉 Why MedsMeHappy?
Our SilymarinAdvanced formula is carefully crafted for dogs and cats, with ingredients shown to support both liver and brain health—two of the most important systems in senior pets.
2. Daily Fiber for Digestive Comfort
Constipation, irregular bowel movements, and hairballs can become more frequent as dogs age. Fiber supplements help maintain regularity and support gut health.
That’s where our Ovatasyl Fiber Capsules shine. Formulated with a gentle, natural source of fiber, they support:
- Smooth digestion
- Natural elimination
- Relief from occasional constipation
- Hairball reduction in pets prone to them
Pro tip: Regular digestion means your dog absorbs more nutrients and feels better from the inside out.
3. Joint Support with Glucosamine and MSM
Mobility can decline fast without proper joint support. Supplements that include glucosamine, chondroitin, MSM, and turmeric are crucial for easing stiffness, reducing inflammation, and keeping your senior dog active and pain-free.
While MedsMeHappy is exploring new formulations in this category, many of our customers pair our current products with a trusted joint supplement to build a complete daily routine. Stay tuned for joint support solutions coming soon to MedsMeHappy!
4. Omega-3 Fatty Acids for Skin, Coat & Cognitive Health
Omega-3s aren’t just for looks—they help fight inflammation, support brain health, and keep your senior dog’s heart and skin in great shape.
While we don’t currently carry an omega-3 product, we always recommend adding high-quality fish oil or algae-based omega-3s to your senior dog’s daily diet. Look for products with EPA and DHA for the best results—and be sure to check with your vet first.
5. Immune System Support
As dogs age, their immune system weakens. Daily immune support with antioxidants, vitamins C and E, and probiotics can help your senior pup better fight off illness and recover faster.
Many of our customers use SilymarinAdvanced for its antioxidant-rich formula that supports not just liver health, but immune resilience too. Combine it with a fiber-rich diet (hello, Ovatasyl) and you’ve got a well-rounded immune support plan.
