Bladder ChewsUpdated 13 days ago
Product Overview
Q: What do Bladder Chews do and how do they work?
Our vet-developed proprietary Bladder Chew blend contains cranberry extract and D. Mannose, and probiotics that help support normal bladder function and urinary tract health.
Q: What makes Bladder Chews different from other products in the market?
Our chews are the only air-dried, meat-based supplements in the market. Our vet-developed proprietary blend contains cranberry extract and D. Mannose, and probiotics that help support normal bladder function and urinary tract health.
Q: What is an air-dried chew and how is it different from a soft chew?
Air-dried chews are Native Pet’s answer to the industry-wide soft chew problem. They are made with real chicken, four active ingredients, zero fillers, and no artificial flavoring. These high-quality, single-source protein-based supplements are made by air-drying meat through a gentle process that removes moisture while preserving the active ingredients, nutritional integrity, and flavor without artificial preservatives or additives. In contrast, soft chews are highly processed, starch-based, and often contain artificial flavorings and fillers that don’t provide nutritional value and may even be harmful over time.
Q: Is it safe to use Bladder Chews with other Native Pet supplements?
Yes! You can safely give Bladder Chews with any other Native Pet product. We always recommend starting with a lower serving and easing into the full serving when introducing new products to your dog’s diet and when combining new supplements.
Q: Do you recommend pairing Bladder Chews with any other products?
We recommend taking our quiz to find your dog’s personalized routine (+ you’ll get $5 off!)
Q: What flavor is a Bladder Chew?
Our Bladder Chews are made with real chicken, which is the most palatable way to deliver highly efficacious active ingredients to dogs. While other allergy products have to be used with pill pockets or pill wraps, our product is sure to have high palatability/ acceptance to deliver the ingredients your dog needs.
Q: Who formulated Bladder Chews?
All Native Pet supplements are formulated in collaboration with Board-certified veterinarians.
Q: How do I know if my dog needs Bladder Chews?
If your dog shows signs of urinary issues, like accidents inside the house, frequent urination, dribbling urine, licking the urinary opening, or strong urine odor, our Bladder chews may help relieve some of these issues. However, if the issues or signs persist, we recommend that you consult a vet.
Q: How long does it take for Bladder Chews to start helping?
Bladder Chews work best with consistent use, and they may take a few weeks to build up their full effect. Every dog is different and results may vary.
Q: Why is this product in an air-dried chew format?
While powders are the most efficacious format for most formulas, Bladder Chews contain several active ingredients that are best-delivered to your pup in chew form. We use high-quality meat as a carrier for all the active ingredients to combine palatability with efficacy.
Q: My dog doesn’t like them. What should I do?
We offer a 100% customer satisfaction guarantee. If you or your dog are not satisfied with your order, we’ll refund you!
Q: What is an air-dried chew?
Air-dried chews are Native Pet’s answer to the industry-wide soft chew problem. While soft chews are highly-processed and full of unnecessary fillers that are bad for your dog, an air-dried chew is a high-quality, single-source-protein-based supplement for dogs made by air-drying meat or fish without the use of artificial preservatives or additives. Air-drying is a gentle process that removes moisture from the meat while preserving its nutritional integrity and flavor. Invented by Native Pet in 2021, these natural supplements are often favored by pet owners seeking wholesome, minimally processed nutrition for their dogs.
Q: What’s the difference between a soft chew and an air-dried chew?
Soft chews are starch-based, packed with gums and oils, artificially flavored, and contain 12+ ingredients. Air-dried chews are made with real chicken, no artificial flavoring, zero fillers, and only 4 inactive ingredients. The gentle air-drying process naturally preserves the active ingredients, maintaining optimal taste and texture for dogs.
Q: Do these prevent UTIs? Do they treat UTIs?
Our Bladder Chews are not intended to treat medical conditions. There is data suggesting that cranberry extract and d-mannose do help reduce UTIs. However, these ingredients do not treat UTIs once they occur. The active ingredients in our Bladder Chews may change the pH of urine, which makes it difficult for crystals and stones to form in the first place.
Q: What do they do?
The bladder chews are specifically formulated to:
Provide pee break relief
Help prevent regular ‘accidents’
Support urinary tract health
Q: Where are they made?
Our bladder chews are made in the United States.
