Luna's Lab is one real owner documenting one real dog. It's honest and specific, but Luna isn't your dog — what works for her may not be right for yours, and none of it is veterinary advice. Use it for ideas and questions to bring to your own vet, not as a plan to copy.
Luna's list is short on purpose
The most honest thing I can tell you about Luna's supplements is that there aren't many. The pet supplement aisle wants you to believe every dog needs a cabinet full of jars; in practice, we add things deliberately, only with a reason, and only after running them past our vet. "More" has never been the goal.
How we decide
Our process is simple: identify an actual need with the vet, choose a specific product and amount together, and then watch how Luna responds — including being willing to stop something if there's no clear reason to continue. Supplements are a support around the fundamentals (weight, movement, nutrition, vet care), never a replacement for them. For the category-by-category thinking, see the supplements hub.
The honest part
Some things we tried didn't earn a permanent place, and that's the point of an "experiment." I'd rather tell you what we dropped and why than pretend Luna's on some optimized stack of miracle powders. If your dog has a real need, that's a conversation for your vet — not a copy of Luna's list.
- Does my dog have an actual need a supplement would address?
- What product and amount would you recommend, if any?
- Could anything interact with my dog's diet or medications?
- What should I prioritize before adding supplements?
