Do you know what your furbabies are eating?
MANILA, Philippines — Philipp Renner and Tim Michael, cofounders of Dr. Shiba functional dog snacks, recently launched their revolutionary dog supplement treats in the Philippines.
I got to talk to CEO Philipp and COO Tim and was pleased to learn that Dr. Shiba has three variants of high-end, functional dog snacks: Happy Tummy, Jolly Joints and Silky Fur — the result of trials formulated in Germany.
“Our mission is to upgrade and enrich the everyday lives of dogs, ”said Philipp. “The holistic dog wellness brand is focused on creating functional products tailored to every dog’s needs. The German-formulated dog snacks were co-developed and endorsed by veterinary experts as functional supplements packed into yummy treats. Dr. Shiba is able to offer a healthy and delicious alternative to probiotic supplements for dogs.”
Added Tim, “Having owned dogs ourselves in the founders’ team, we know that it’s incredibly hard to find the right kind of healthy snack for your canine that also tastes yummy. We therefore set out to create an assortment of different, healthy snacks supporting your dog’s specific needs while still tasting great.”
Using selected, high-quality natural ingredients, Dr. Shiba is able to provide sustainable, toxin-free snacks and essentials for dogs. The treats are packed with nutrients that offer health benefits for dogs in the most convenient and fun ways. Currently, Dr. Shiba has three dog supplement treats available: Happy Tummy, which is created to encourage healthy digestion in dogs and help them build a stronger immunity towards illness; Jolly Joints, meant to strengthen joints and hips, protect dogs against injury, and improve balance and coordination; and Silky Fur, to provide dogs with perfectly shiny and soft fur.
Philipp said that because of the good response to their products, they want to introduce more products soon. “We are looking into developing a toothpaste for better teeth health of our dogs,” he said. “We also want to look into health treats for cats, like catnip. Needless to say, we are already developing new products.”
As a pet owner I have noticed that there are many new products on the market now. Perhaps it’s because, since the pandemic started, we have been locked down at home with our furbabies.
But sometimes I hesitate to try them because of the flimsy packaging of these products. That is why I immediately liked the Dr. Shiba products because of the sturdy tubs the healthy treats are placed in.
My doggos liked the two variants of the health treats I got them. How did I know? They gobbled them up with their food. So, I told Philipp that I look forward to new toothpaste for my dogs because I know how important dental health is for dogs — and how they suffer when they have a toothache.
Dr. Shiba has quickly garnered support from local vet and dog clinic communities in the Philippines. Dr. Sidney dela Torre from Pawsome Space Comfort & Care Vet Clinic shares, “Dr. Shiba provides you with supplements that are not just beneficial for your pets but their products are tasty as well! The treats are not just packed with good raw materials, but their products are highly palatable to ensure that your pets will love to munch on these healthy, yummy treats!”
Dr. Shiba is now available online at a discounted rate to celebrate their launch. Using the code OFF10, you can redeem an additional 10% discount on the exclusive launch offer for all three supplements (P1,300 instead of P3,000) at https://bit.ly/DrShibaLaunch .
Before we ended the Zoom meeting Philipp suggested that I try the treats for my cats. I did as he said, crushed the heart-shaped treats and added the powder to the longhaired exotic cat Mr. Gizmo’s food.
Well, he must have liked it because his plate was all clean when I came around to check how he was doing.
