Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my dog needs a multivitamin?

Despite an owner’s best efforts, sometimes animals can’t always get all the nutrients they need from diet alone. When your dog is lacking its usual energy, or you have a fussy eater in need of a nutritional boost, ZamiPet Complete Care Multi provides key vitamins and minerals to help fill nutritional gaps and maintain general health and vitality.

How long is my dog considered a puppy?

Puppies mature into adults at different stages depending on the breed and the individual dog itself. As a general guide, larger breeds remain in their puppy stage until about 15-18 months, while smaller breeds will be puppies for approximately 10-12 months. 

How do I best feed my dog a ZamiPet chew?

Developed for easy feeding, the unique clover-shaped ZamiPet chew can be consumed whole or broken into segments. Please refer to the directions for use to determine the recommended daily serve based on your dog's weight, or speak to your animal health professional.

Are the ZamiPet chews soft enough to break apart?

Yes! We've developed the ZamiPet chews so they can be broken into smaller pieces, so you can vary the dosage depending on your dog's weight. They’re also perfect for smaller or fussy dogs who might find smaller pieces more manageable.

What is the best way to store my ZamiPet chews?

Always store your ZamiPet chews below 30°C out of direct sunlight, protected from moisture, heat and light. To maximise freshness, always keep the container tightly closed.

Can I use ZamiPet chews as frequent treats or rewards?

Whilst your dog will no doubt love our chews and see them as delicious treats, the ZamiPet range has been specially formulated for supplemental use and should only be dispensed as per the directions for use, or as recommended by your animal health professional.

 

For the perfect treat for dogs with added health benefits, explore our range of ZamiPet HappiTreats®.

My dog is a fussy eater and won't be easily tricked into trying something new. How will I go feeding the ZamiPet range to my pet?

There's a fussy eater in every household! We've formulated the ZamiPet range to make our chew supplements, dental sticks and treats super-tasty and irresistible to dogs, using locally sourced chicken and salmon, plus aromas your pet will love! Our ZamiPet High Strength Probiotics+ are unflavoured so you can mix in or sprinkle on top of your dog's favourite meal. 

But just like people, dogs have individual food preferences. This can create some challenges and frustration for pet parents when trying to introduce something new to your pet’s diet. We've written a blog, 11 Ways to Introduce New Foods to Your Dog, which provides some steps for how to introduce new foods and treats to your best friend.

Should I feed my dog its ZamiPet chews at mealtime?

ZamiPet chews can be fed to your dog at any time of the day as per the recommended dosage. However, the easiest way to always remember your dog's ZamiPet chew, is to feed alongside your pet's main meal. For optimal results, it’s best to give your dog the prescribed number of chews in one feeding.

Is it OK to give my dog different products from the ZamiPet range at the same time?

Our Australian vets have formulated the ZamiPet range so that products can be paired together depending on the health needs of your pet, both safely and effectively. Please ensure you always follow the feeding guidelines on the label or speak to your animal health professional.

Are ZamiPet products made in Australia?

All products in the ZamiPet range are manufactured in Australia.

Can I give my dog ZamiPet HappiTreats® as well as ZamiPet premium health supplements?

Yes! ZamiPet HappiTreats® have been specially formulated for use in conjunction with ZamiPet premium health supplements for optimal health. Please refer to the feeding guide for the correct dosage for your pet. 

We recommend feeding your dog ZamiPet HappiTreats® during the day, between morning and evening meals.

Diagram explains to feed ZamiPet supplements in morning and evening with main meals, and ZamiPet HappiTreats during the day.

Will my dog like the taste of ZamiPet High Strength Probiotics+?

ZamiPet High Strength Probiotics+ are unflavoured so you can mix in or sprinkle on top of your dog's favourite meal. And with a modest 1.2 g per serve, your dog is unlikely to notice the powder at all!

What does CFU mean and why is it important?

Probiotics are measured in colony forming units (CFU) and are generally calculated in millions or billions per serve. CFU is one of several indicators used for probiotic quality and refers to the number of living or viable microorganisms in one serving of probiotic supplement. The CFU number is important in the context of ensuring your dog receives a high enough number of live bacteria per serve to improve the balance of good bacteria in the gut. Other important indicators of quality for probiotics include the right strains (or combination of strains), scientific evidence to support the desired health benefit, and suitable packaging (such as single-serve sachets) to protect probiotic viability and stability.

Why don't ZamiPet High Strength Probiotics+ need to be kept in the fridge?

Fridge-free probiotics – often referred to as shelf-stable probiotics – are created by freeze drying live bacteria, which remain dormant until they come into contact with moisture.* Because probiotics are sensitive to heat and will naturally decline in numbers over time (especially unrefrigerated), shelf-stable probiotics are over-filled with live strains, referred to as overage. This ensures there are enough viable probiotics for your dog right up until the end of the product’s shelf life. For example, whilst the ZamiPet High Strength Probiotics+ range declares 2 billion CFU per serve, in reality this number is significantly higher at the time of manufacture to allow for the natural decline in numbers over time until end of shelf life.

*As ZamiPet’s High Strength Probiotics+ range is packed in single-serve sachets, our product won’t be exposed to moisture until it’s opened and fed to your dog. This ensures most of the beneficial bacteria will survive to perform their important function in the gut.

How long will ZamiPet High Strength Probiotics+ take to work and how long should my dog take them for?

Whilst every dog is different, it can take anywhere from a few days to 2 months for your pet to feel the benefits of a probiotic supplement. Probiotics need time to work on increasing your dog’s good bacteria in the gut, whilst also decreasing the harmful bacteria at the same time. Patience is key, so Dr. Andrew McKay (ZamiPet’s Head Vet) advises you continue with the recommended daily dose of ZamiPet High Strength Probiotics+ for at least two months. If symptoms persist, visit your vet for further guidance.

Are there any known side effects supplementing my dog’s diet with probiotics?

The purpose of giving probiotics to your dog is to help restore balance to their gut and prevent levels of bad bacteria overpowering beneficial bacteria. Re-establishing this balance can take time and it’s not uncommon for your dog to experience a short period of temporary digestive adjustment, symptoms of which may include flatulence, loose stools, or diarrhoea. This can be part of the normal process as your dog’s gut transitions to a healthier microbiome and is a positive sign the probiotic is doing its job. 

In the event symptoms of digestive adjustment continue, ZamiPet’s Head Vet, Dr. Andrew McKay, recommends you stop providing the probiotics to your dog for 2 days to allow the gut to settle, and then commence again with half the recommended daily dose for 3 days, before increasing to the standard recommended dose thereafter. If symptoms persist, please visit your vet for further guidance.

Are ZamiPet High Strength Probiotics+ suitable for puppies?

ZamiPet High Strength Probiotics+ are suitable for puppies aged 8 weeks and older. In fact, two of the strains in ZamiPet High Strength Probiotics+ Gut Protect (Lactobacillus rhamnosus and Enterococcus faecium) have demonstrated a benefit to the immune system health of puppies.

What happens if my dog eats more than the recommended daily dose?

ZamiPet Relax & Calm supplement chews will not harm your dog if they consume more than the recommended dose. However, if your dog eats the entire tub – and yes, some dogs have liked our product so much this has happened before! – please contact us or consult your vet.
