Our pets are brilliant companions. Having a pet in the home can support a positive environment, encouraging exercise, playfulness, and a sense of security for the whole family. Pets provide wonderful companionship and add absolute joy and unconditional love to our lives.
Naturally, we all care about the well-being of our pets and want them to lead vibrant, active lives. You will be pleased to know that Turmeric is a fantastic addition to your dog’s diet. Extensive research has shown that Turmeric is a safe, natural botanical for canines. Among its many benefits, Turmeric supports natural mobility and helps maintain joint comfort, which is especially important for keeping your dog active as they age.
You might be wondering, “How much Turmeric is suitable for my dog?” or be unsure how to get a faddy pup started. To make things easier, we have provided a guide for the recommended Turmeric serving sizes based on your dog’s breed and size.
Dog Breeds By Size:
- Larger Dog Breeds – (E.g., Shepherd, Rottweiler, Huskie, Great Dane, Labrador, Mastiff, Saint Bernard) 1 softly rounded teaspoon of Turmeric blend
- Medium to Large Dog Breeds – (E.g., Golden Retriever, American Staffordshire Terrier, Standard Poodles, Boxer, Collie) 1 teaspoon of Turmeric blend
- Small Dog Breeds – (E.g., English Springer Spaniel, Beagle, Dachshund, Shih Tzu,The Jack Russell Terrier) 1/2 teaspoon of Turmeric blend.

Directions for Dry Dog Food
- Prepare the Blend: Sprinkle your Earth Signature Turmeric Blend over the dry kibble. Add a small amount of warm water and stir until it creates a light, pasty coating around the food.
- The Egg Addition: To make the meal even more enticing, many owners like to crack an egg over the turmeric-coated kibble. This is a fantastic way to provide a boost of natural protein and healthy fats. It also helps the blend stick to the food, making it much easier for “fussy eaters” to enjoy the full benefits. Whether you choose to serve the egg raw or lightly cooked, it makes for a highly nutritious topper that dogs love.
- Introduction Period: For the first few days, this combination helps your dog get used to the new flavors and textures of their enhanced diet. Most dogs enjoy the taste so much that they will happily eat the blend even without the egg incentive in the future.
- For Fussy Eaters: If you have a particularly faddy pup, it might take a few attempts to find their favorite way to enjoy it. Once your dog has adjusted to this new nutritional routine, they typically respond very well at mealtime!
Directions For Wet Dog Food:
- Mix the Turmeric Blend into wet food and top it with an, as above.
We recommend you to leave them outside or confine them inside for the first 24 hours – just in case they experience a loose bowel response. If this happens, minimise their dosage for the initial few days.
