K9 Flavored vitamin enriched water???
People seems to come up with very strange thing lately.. One of them was Bacon flavored grass supplement that I wrote about in previous entry "Why dogs eat grass?"
I found another one called "K9 water".It is vitamin enriched water with different flavor choice such as Beef,Lamb,chicken,liver etc etc
When I first heard about enriched water was Ceser Millan's Water. His line offers fresh breath water(Mint),healthy skin water(Parsley) Click here to see bottle. It costs you $1.50. One thing I learnt is that parsley is high in Vitamin K so,I wonder if the water provide too much vitamin K by being provided to dogs daily,then if that would not going to create problems,and I am sure that water maker would not know what the dogs that drink their products are eating as main diet.So, why the water maker can make good mix of vitamin enriched water to suit to each dog?? Very strange..
Anyway,the k9 water website says, they do not use any preservatives or artificial colors.On the FAQ page , they say they use purified water,human grade vitamins, but how do they flavor the water without using actual meat (maybe like pureeing the meat??) or any artificial flavoring. I wonder if the vitamin is flavored vitamins and maybe mix it with purified water? I remember that heart worm preventatives come with beef flavor pill,so it is possible that human grade vitamins are beef flavored dogs love.But if that was the case,I do not think people take any supplement with any meat flavor,and most supplement comes like cherry flavor or lemon flavor etc so,that makes me go hmm.... I do not know how they make the flavored water..
They claim that dogs lose vitamins when dogs get dehydrated as human do and,that is why they offer water for dehydration with added vitamins to back the lost vitamins into body. Do you buy this benefit claim??
And, it also says that other animals cannot drink the water because it is specially formulated for dogs and not safe. Well,but I thought that they use HUMAN GRADE vitamins,don't they? And purified water??
I think that providing water to your dogs is important part of care,but I do not see benefit providing any water fortified with vitamins or with meat flavor. Just pure water sure would satisfy the dogs' thirst,and they can get natural form of vitamins,mineral and all that from food,and I do not see it necessary to add water formulated specially for dogs.This k9 water costs you about $7.50 with 4 bottles package(one bottle is about 16oz).
Let us know your thoughts on this products.
