This product is excellent. Gets the calcium dosage easily -- don't have to grind up our calcium tabs. It does stick to the measuring spoon, so it's best to use a dedicated one for this product. Do be careful when ordering products; for some breeds, nutritional supplements have higher doses of copper than are prudent (Bedlington Terriers are prone to Copper Toxicosis, and due to its copper levels, should not take the companion multivitamin product, for example).

Easy to measure precisely... 1 tsp = 1000 mg. High calcium to phosphorus ratio, which is perfect for dogs being fed home-cooked or raw diets that have a high P:Ca ratio. It balances it out so that you can get the amounts of both minerals right. Love it.

We have been adding to raw food for cats and dogs for at least 6 years. Four rescue cats, a dog with Lyme and an 18 year old dog have all been healthy and prospered with it.

I purchased this calcium to add to my recipe for a raw supplement to be added to my dogs' kibble. It was recommended by Dr. Pitcairn. The order came within the time frame it was expected and I had no problems with the shipment. Amazon is terrific. Search, find, order, receive. Painless!

I was so happy to see an alternative calcium source; with also the same needed ratio that most bone meal supplements give...and home cooked meals require. I was nervous about using bone meal as a supplement source, since there is so much conflicting information, and it's very hard to tell where bone meal was sourced from and what metals, toxins, etc... each manufacturer actually tests for.

This has been a great alternative option for us. Our huskies don't reject food with this seaweed calcium added in. They also love seaweed, so I guess it helps, even though I can't smell a difference...they seem to know.

I'm happy since they are happy, and I am not stressed over which bone meal to choose. Thankfully, this product has eliminated that need, since the calcium and phosphorus levels are what they need to be.
