It all started with Dr Kruger formulas<\/span><\/h3>\n

Lapdog Limited started business in 2005 as the exclusive NZ distributor for Dr Kruger Ultimate Supplements imported from the USA.\u00a0 Dr Kruger, a veterinarian in Washington State, is also known as a well-respected AKC show judge and breeder of Welsh Corgis and German Shepherds.\u00a0 It was his love for the dogs in the show ring that led him to formulate the Dr Kruger Ultimate Supplements over 20 years ago. The formula has benefits in improving coat, energy level, and the way it works inside the dog.\u00a0 In time, Dr Kruger added specific formulas all based on his “Original” formula.\u00a0 Due to the expense of shipping products from the US, only the three most popular are carried by Lapdog Limited – Healthy Skin & Coat, Healthy Joint, and Puppy \/ Pregnancy.\u00a0 There are no other products on the market that compare to the completeness of the Dr Kruger products.<\/span><\/p>\n

All formulas contain <\/span>TRACE MINERALS<\/b> and <\/span>PRO-BIOTICS<\/b> that are necessary for intestinal health, support of the immune system and control of pathogenic bacteria that keeps the intestinal wall clean which enhances the absorption of nutrients.\u00a0 There are <\/span>FOUR DIGESTIVE ENZYMES<\/b> that greatly improve digestibility of dog food and allow the dog to <\/span>eat up to 20% less<\/b>.<\/b>\u00a0 All this increases energy, improves coat and the general health of your dog.<\/span><\/p>\n

Also perfect for commercial dog food diets to help your dog better digest the biscuits and get more nutrients from the food.<\/b><\/p>\n

Next came the Neo-Life product line …..<\/span><\/p>\n

In 2006, further research on hip dysplasia led Lapdog to expand its product line to include Neo-Life products.\u00a0 Neo-Life, has been around since the 1958.\u00a0 Their products are scientifically developed and are a non-synthetic form of Vitamin C that is molecularly natural.\u00a0 The reason this became important to Lapdog is because only the natural forms of Vitamin C can make collagen in the body and collagen became important to Lapdog because it holds the bones and joints together.\u00a0 No convincing research has been done since the 1970’s to determine if dogs are still making adequate levels of vitamin C naturally since the introduction of commercial dry biscuits in the 1950’s.\u00a0 There is research to prove that the dog’s ability to make collagen can be affected by vaccines, anti-biotics and steroids.\u00a0 So for those wishing to give their dogs a natural form of Vitamin C, Lapdog has two forms- Threshold (slow release form that needs to be taken without chewing the tablet), and the Chewable Vitamin C (Neo-C). Neo-Life’s range of products has the same high standard and focus on health that the Dr Kruger product.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":[],"yoast_head":"\nAbout - LapDog<\/title>\n<meta \="" content='\"index,' follow,="" max-image-preview:large,="" max-snippet:-1,="" max-video-preview:-1\"="" name='\"robots\"'/>\n<link \="" href='\"https:\/\/lapdog.co.nz\/about\/\"' rel='\"canonical\"'/>\n<meta \="" content='\"en_US\"' property='\"og:locale\"'/>\n<meta \="" content='\"article\"' property='\"og:type\"'/>\n<meta -="" \="" content='\"About' lapdog\"="" property='\"og:title\"'/>\n<meta \="" content='\"https:\/\/lapdog.co.nz\/about\/\"' property='\"og:url\"'/>\n<meta \="" content='\"LapDog\"' property='\"og:site_name\"'/>\n<meta \="" content='\"2019-01-29T21:30:18+00:00\"' property='\"article:modified_time\"'/>\n<meta \="" content='\"summary_large_image\"' name='\"twitter:card\"'/>\n<meta by\"="" content='\"Written' name='\"twitter:label1\"'/>\n\t<meta content='\"dev-admin\"' name='\"twitter:data1\"'/>\n\t<meta content='\"Est.' name='\"twitter:label2\"' reading="" time\"=""/>\n\t<meta content='\"2' minutes\"="" name='\"twitter:data2\"'/>\n<script class='\"yoast-schema-graph\"' type='\"application\/ld+json\"'></script>
