Do these products work? I’d obviously like to take care of my pups teeth, she has dental chews she gets a couple times a week…do I need to supplement that with toothbrushing as well?
Geez…my vet never told me any of the stuff you guys are…I guess it’s time to find a new doggy Doc!

I’m preparing to care for a bearded dragon, I’ve been doing research for something close to two years, so this is no impulse. I’m fully prepared to care for my pet, but I still have a few questions.

I know bearded dragons make some of their own Vitamin D3 from UVB rays, but my dragon will be spending his entire life indoors (unless I decide to take him outside but that won’t happen until he’s an adult, and even then probably just one or two times a year). So even a UVB light might not provide the dragon with all the D3 he needs.

There are D3 supplements, but too much of the vitamin can be toxic, so how much do I use? Do I coat crickets in vitamin D3 dust along with the calcium supplement with every feeding? Or just once a day?

PetRescuer asked:


My roomie’s rat is looking a bit thin recently. She lives with another rat and I’ve seen them both eating together so I don’t think it’s the dominant rat keeping her from the food. But she has been growing at a very fast rate into a jumbo rat, so maybe that has something to do with it.

Anyway, she is getting some kind of rat-mix from Petco for food. I’m sorry, I’m not sure on the brand. She hasn’t been getting lab-blocks lately so maybe that has to do with it? Anyway, what can I supplement her food with for optimal health?

She gets a bit of fresh veggies/fresh fruit whenever we are cooking and she always has food available. She doesn’t get treats very often. Maybe she should have more healthy treats? Maybe she needs fresh veggies every day? I guess then I’m wondering if there is any food rats are allergic to or shouldn’t have?

Thanks for your help!
