Health problems happen. Explore just how many pet problem areas Vital Essentials can help solve.

Shedding

Hair loss is downright embarrassing (and messy); the right diet can inspire a silky, shiny coat

Stink

Less frequent poops, smaller and firmer stool, and fewer foul smells; yes, please!

Teeth

Tartar is ugly, and dental disease is painful and costly; plus, everyone loves fresh breath

Bad Gut

Digestive issues are no fun for anyone; raw diets can create a healthy balance of probiotics that sensitive stomachs love

Low Energy

The right (raw) diet can help improve energy and vitality; that’s a life worth living

Skin Issues

Dandruff is so unflattering; let’s get your pet flake- and itch-free

Felines

Cats often need help, too. Don’t worry, we're here for you.
