Springtime Supplements got its start in 1979 when founder Dennis Hampt needed a solution for his beloved dog’s health issues. His Akita, Buddha, suffered a broken leg as a puppy. Over time his leg deteriorated to the point that veterinarians recommended that he be put down. Dennis, however, had another idea—to help Buddha heal naturally.
Dennis dedicated himself to exhaustive research and experimentation with natural foods. Not only did Buddha recover, but he regained the power and strength that he had in his prime. Buddha would go on to live another five active years.
“This girl gets Fresh Factors and Joint Health every day…and she loves them! She thinks they are a snack!”
Pat Smith
That discovery became the foundation of Springtime Supplements and their most popular product, Fresh Factors®, a canine supplement that supports good joint and overall health, On Fresh Factors is still among Springtime Supplements’ best-selling products, largely from a groundswell of referrals over the years. The supplement provides natural support with chondroitin, bee pollen, active yeast culture, kelp, desiccated beef liver, and biotin. From puppies to seniors, it’s a great supplement for dogs of all ages to help maintain healthy joints and support healthy skin. The supplement also aids digestion, reduces stool size, supports a healthy immune system, and nourishes skin and muscle tone.
Most dog foods are processed for long term storage and as such, lose a great deal of nutritional benefits. Fresh Factors helps balance the canine diet which is critical for peak health.
Another Springtime Supplement many dogs also benefit from is Longevity, their strongest rejuvenating supplement for our canine pals. Longevity can turn back the clock for older dogs with its blend of 14 natural ingredients including bee pollen, spirulina, glucosamine, chondroitin, MSM, vitamin C, and more. Longevity provides the vitamins, nutrients, and live-enzyme factors that are impossible to find in commercial dog food brands.
Like Fresh Factor, Longevity is excellent for dogs of all ages—including puppies. The live enzymes, vitamins, and minerals in Longevity contribute to digestive, immune, and joint health while also maintaining healthy energy levels. Longevity is especially useful in supporting the body’s daily detoxification process, which helps dogs stave off common environmental toxins.
For dogs that need more targeted joint support, the Advanced Hip and Joint Formula is an excellent option for a comprehensive foundation. The supplement contains Boswellia extract, good for maintaining comfort and mobility associated with aging or post-exercise recovery, as well as a generous dose of chondroitin sulfate and other high-grade ingredients such as MSM and glucosamine for overall joint health. These chewable tablets are flavored with real beef liver, making them a tasty treat that dogs look forward to chowing down on.
For those who suffer from anxiety, Springtime has developed the Stress-Free Calmplex® , a formula containing Panax ginseng that helps your dog deal with stressful situations like boarding, guests, vet visits, and separation. Stress-Free Calmplex comes in easy-to-give liver-flavored chewables.
This supplement is especially helpful to those with performance dogs. Stress-Free Calmplex helps support focus and concentration without a sedative effect that would dull performance. It also helps the body’s natural processes for managing physical and mental stressors. It works best when given daily, but can be given to target specific events.
Whether a performance dog or a family pet, everyone loves healthy skin. Springtime makes it easy to give your dog’s skin and coat top-notch nutrients. Their Skin and Coat Oil is a blend of seven of the most nutrient-dense oils available. This formula will produce a soft, brilliant, weatherproof coat and healthy skin. Plus, dogs love the taste.
Skin and Coat Oil stores at room temperature and its amber-brown color comes from valuable nutrients normally lost in the refinement process of oils for cooking. Its full-spectrum antioxidants keep it fresh and safe at room temperature. Those same nutrients support a pet’s cellular integrity, contributing to overall health.
Rice bran oil, universally recognized as one of the world’s healthiest food oils, is one of the key ingredients in the Skin and Coat Oil. The grade they use is by far the best for nutrition. It contains super-rich amounts of phytonutrient antioxidants like oryzanols, tocopherols, tocotrienols, phytosterols, vitamin E and an array of other health-supporting nutrients. Its naturally occurring gamma oryzanol can also support muscle tone.
In addition to rice bran oil, Skin and Coat Oil also contains coconut oil that improves digestion, reduces allergic response, and speeds healing plus extra virgin olive oil that supports normal inflammatory response. Sesame seed oil, pumpkin seed oil, walnut oil, and sunflower seed oil round out the formula with a variety of health benefits.
