General Questions

How do I give Canilabs powders to my dog?

Simply sprinkle the recommended daily amount over your dog's food. It's palatable and mixes easily with any meal.

How much should I give my dog each day?

Each Canilabs product comes with a clear feeding guide based on your dog's weight. Simply measure the recommended number of scoops according to the packaging (it's safe to approximate e.g 1.5 scoops) and sprinkle it over your dog's food daily.

How quickly will I see results?

Every dog is different, and the time it takes to notice changes can vary. Some owners may see improvements within the first couple of weeks, while for others it may take longer. Like all supplements, the best results come with consistent daily use, and we recommend allowing at least 60 days to get the full benefits of any Canilabs product.

What size scoop will I get with my tub?

CaniCalm is pre-measured in convenient scoops for simple, accurate dosing. BarkBiotic comes with a 3.5g scoop, the most popular size. For a 5g dose, just use 1.5 scoops.

Do you really donate 50p to Charity with every purchase?

Yes! For every tub of Canilabs supplements sold, we pawroudly donate 50p to UK-registered charities dedicated to dog welfare and rehoming. This helps support essential work, from rescuing and rehoming dogs to providing meals, medical care, and lifelong support for those in need.

Does the 50p donation come out of my order total?

No, the 50p donation is made by Canilabs from our profits, not added onto your order. You pay only for your product and shipping.

Can I stop using the product once my dog seems better?

For the best long-term results, we recommend consistent daily use. While you may notice improvements quickly, supplements work best as part of your dog's ongoing routine.

Can puppies or senior dogs use these products?

Yes. Canilabs products are formulated to be safe and effective for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to golden oldies. Just be sure to follow the weight-based serving guide. If your puppy is very young or your senior dog is on any medication, check with your vet first.

Do I still need supplements if I already feed a premium dog food?

Even the best diets can benefit from targeted support. Premium foods provide a strong nutritional base, but Canilabs supplements deliver specific functional benefits, like gut health, calming support, or immune balance, that standard dog food alone may not cover.

Are there any side effects?

Canilabs products are made with safe, natural ingredients and are generally well-tolerated. Occasionally, when introducing a new supplement, a dog may experience mild digestive changes as their system adjusts. You can try lowering the dose and increasing gradually. If symptoms persist, stop use and consult your vet.

What is the shelf life of Canilabs products?

Each product has a clear expiry date printed on the packaging. Unopened tubs typically last 12–18 months. Once opened, keep the product tightly sealed and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Can I combine multiple Canilabs products?

Yes, our supplements are designed to work together for complete wellbeing. For example, Bark Biotic can be used daily alongside Cani Calm. If your dog is on medication, check with your vet before combining products.

What if my dog doesn't like the taste?

Most dogs happily accept Canilabs powders as they're easy to mix with food. If your dog is hesitant, try blending the powder with a small amount of wet food, broth, or a favourite treat to make it more appealing.

Where are Canilabs products made?

All Canilabs supplements are produced in the UK in a facility that operates under Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and holds UFAS accreditation, ISO 9001 Quality Management, and HACCP feed safety standards. Every batch has full traceability from raw materials through to the finished product, ensuring safety, consistency, and quality.

What if I miss a dose?

Don't worry, just give the regular serving at the next mealtime. There's no need to double up. Consistency over time is what delivers the best results.

Is the packaging recyclable?

Yes, our securitainer tubs and lids are fully recyclable. Simply rinse them out once empty and place them in your household recycling bin.

Will I get free poop bags with my order?

Yes! Every order will receive our super strong poop bags. After all, what we put in must come out again!! This offer is subject to change, you will see the free gift in your basket and checkout.

Do all products qualify for the Charity donation?

Yes, every tub of Canilabs supplements sold contributes to the donation, so every purchase helps support dogs in need.

Can I track how much Canilabs has donated?

We will share updates about our donations and partnerships through our website and social channels, so you can see the difference your purchase is helping to make.

How does the 60-Day Money-Back Guarantee work?

If you're not satisfied after using our supplement as directed for 60 days, we'll offer a free replacement tub, store credit, or a refund for the first tub purchased. Simply email support@canilabs.co.uk within 60 days of your first order to start the process. This applies only to the first purchase of each product from canilabs.co.uk and is limited to one claim per customer. Additional tubs must be returned unopened for a refund. Full T&C's here.

What if I don't see results after 60 days?

Supplements can take time, and results vary based on your dog's size, health, or diet. Contact us at support@canilabs.co.uk, and we'll offer personal advice to optimise use. If you're still not satisfied, we'll offer a free replacement tub, store credit, or a refund for one tub.

Product Information

What makes Bark Biotic different from other probiotics?

Bark Biotic isn't just a probiotic, it combines prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics for complete digestive support. This 3-in-1 approach makes it far more effective than standard probiotic-only formulas.

Is Bark Biotic suitable for all dog breeds and sizes?

Yes, Bark Biotic is safe and effective for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages, from playful puppies to senior companions. Just follow the feeding guide based on your dog's weight.

Is this product suitable for picky eaters?

Yes! Bark Biotic is a flavourless, easy-to-use powder that can be sprinkled on top of meals. It's loved by even the fussiest dogs.

Can Bark Biotic help with bad breath?

Absolutely. By balancing gut bacteria and supporting digestive health, Bark Biotic helps reduce the bacteria that cause unpleasant odours, leading to fresher breath. Note: odour from poor dental hygiene should be addressed separately!

Are your products vegetarian?

Yes. Both BarkBiotic and CaniCalm dog supplements are 100% vegetarian: no meat, fish, poultry, eggs, dairy, gelatin, honey, or animal by-products; no animal tissues or direct animal-derived ingredients; all ingredients are plant-sourced, mineral, microbial (yeast/bacteria), or amino acids; safe for dogs on vegetarian or flexitarian diets.

Can I use Bark Biotic alongside my dog's current diet?

Definitely. Bark Biotic is designed to complement any diet, whether it's dry kibble, wet food, raw, or a custom plan. It can also be used safely alongside other Canilabs supplements.

How long does one jar of Bark Biotic last?

It depends on your dog's size and daily serving. On average, one jar lasts around 30 days for a medium-sized dog. See our guide on the product page for the breakdown and cost per serving.

Does Bark Biotic help with allergies or skin issues?

Yes, a healthy gut supports the immune system and plays a key role in skin and coat health. Many owners find that Bark Biotic helps reduce allergy symptoms and improves coat condition over time.

Will Bark Biotic stop my dog from barking?

No, the word "Bark" is just a fun part of the name. Bark Biotic is designed to support gut health, digestion, and immunity, not behaviour. For barking or behavioural concerns, we recommend seeking advice from a qualified behaviourist.

Can Bark Biotic be used with medications or other supplements?

In most cases, yes, Bark Biotic is safe to use alongside other supplements and a wide range of diets. However, if your dog is currently on medication, we always recommend checking with your vet before introducing any new supplement. Important: Bark Biotic should be avoided when your dog is taking macrolide-type antibiotics (such as erythromycin, tylosin, or clarithromycin) as these can interfere with the effectiveness of probiotics.

How should I store Bark Biotic?

Store Bark Biotic in its original container, with the lid tightly sealed. Keep it in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Refrigeration is not required.

Is Bark Biotic safe for long-term use?

Yes, Bark Biotic is formulated for daily, long-term use. In fact, the benefits are greatest when given consistently.

What is Cani Calm, and how does it work?

Cani Calm is a natural calming supplement made with a blend of amino acids, vitamins, and soothing botanicals like passion flower and lemon balm. These ingredients work together to support relaxation, reduce stress, and promote emotional balance without sedation.

How quickly will I see results with Cani Calm?

Some dogs may appear calmer within the first few days, especially in stressful situations. However, supplements work best with consistent daily use, and we recommend allowing at least 60 days for your dog to experience the full benefits of Cani Calm.

Can I use Cani Calm daily?

Yes, Cani Calm is safe and gentle enough for daily use. Regular use helps maintain consistent emotional balance, while occasional use can provide extra support during stressful events.

Are the ingredients in Cani Calm 100% natural?

Yes. Cani Calm is made with carefully selected, all-natural ingredients including amino acids, B vitamins, and calming botanicals like lemon balm and passion flower, making it a safe, holistic option for stress support.

What situations is Cani Calm best for?

Cani Calm is perfect for situational stress (such as fireworks, thunderstorms, vet visits, car rides, or being left alone) as well as for ongoing emotional balance in dogs with anxiety, nervousness, restlessness, or hyperactivity.

Will Cani Calm make my dog drowsy?

No, unlike sedatives, Cani Calm promotes calmness without sleepiness. It helps your dog feel relaxed and focused while staying alert and active.

Is Cani Calm suitable for all dogs?

Yes. Cani Calm is formulated for dogs of all breeds, ages, and sizes. Simply follow the recommended serving guide for your dog’s weight. If your dog is pregnant, nursing, or on medication, consult your vet before use.

How is Cani Calm different from other calming supplements?

Cani Calm takes a holistic approach by combining amino acids, vitamins, and botanicals in one formula. This unique blend not only helps reduce stress but also supports focus, emotional balance, and overall wellbeing.

Can I give Cani Calm with other supplements or medications?

Cani Calm can usually be given alongside other supplements and diets. However, if your dog is taking medication, we recommend speaking with your vet before introducing any new supplement.

How should I give Cani Calm to my dog?

Cani Calm comes as an easy-to-use powder that can be sprinkled over your dog's regular food. It has a mild flavour that blends well with meals, even for fussy eaters.
