Most pet owners watch for the obvious signs of aging — slower walks, graying muzzles, a little more stiffness. What often gets less attention is kidney health.

Kidneys filter waste, help regulate hydration, and support overall vitality. As pets age (especially after about age 7), these organs can benefit from extra support. Early changes are often quiet. Many dogs and cats show only subtle shifts at first: slightly reduced appetite, less energy, a duller coat, or changes in drinking and urination habits.

Supporting the kidneys doesn’t replace veterinary care, but it can be a practical part of helping senior pets feel their best.

A Targeted Option We Carry: AminAvast

AminAvast is a patented kidney-support supplement made from a specific blend of naturally occurring amino acids and a peptide (AB070597). It was developed to help maintain normal kidney function and support the health of aging kidneys in both cats and dogs.

Key points that stand out:

  • Designed for pets 7 years and older, or younger pets that need extra renal support
  • Complements all diets, including protein-restricted ones
  • Available in easy-to-use forms: – 300 mg capsules for cats and small dogs – 1000 mg capsules for larger dogs – Chews for pets that prefer them
  • Capsules can be opened and sprinkled on food
  • No reported side effects or drug interactions in the available information
  • Owners and veterinarians have noted improvements in appetite, coat quality, energy, and overall comfort in some pets

It is not a treatment for diagnosed kidney disease — that requires veterinary guidance — but it is a straightforward daily support option for aging pets.

Why We’re Highlighting It Now

We believe in carrying products that solve real problems we see with local dogs and cats. Kidney support is one of those quiet needs that becomes more important every year. 

If your dog or cat is getting older, or if your veterinarian has mentioned kidney values or the benefits of renal support, stop by and take a look. We’re glad to help you decide whether it’s a good fit.

As always, talk with your veterinarian before starting any new supplement, especially if your pet has an existing health condition or is on medication.
