Hip & joint support
Labs throw themselves into everything, from fetch to swims to greeting you at the door. As a large, athletic breed with a famous appetite, their hips and elbows work hard over a lifetime. Keeping them at a healthy weight is one of the best things you can do for those joints, along with steady daily exercise, swimming, and building activity up gradually.
How supplements add support
Every Canine Keeps formula starts with our Keepwell Blend™, which includes green-lipped mussel, collagen, and PEA to support cartilage, cushioning, and everyday mobility, plus omega-3s from fish oil and DHA. Most diets don't provide joint-specific nutrients like these in meaningful amounts, and the omega-3s in food can break down with heat and storage, so a daily serving keeps them consistent. If joints are your Lab's top priority, their Balanced Blend adds more targeted support on top.
Skin, coat & ear support
A Lab's short, dense coat is built for cold water, and it's often where Lab parents first notice seasonal itching or paw licking. Floppy ears that love a swim can hold onto moisture too. Regular brushing, drying their coat and ears well after swims, and gentle baths all help, and because skin comfort is connected to the gut and immune system, support from the inside matters too.
How supplements add support
Canine Keeps supports skin and coat from the inside, with omega-3s from fish oil and DHA, antioxidant-rich blueberry and spirulina, and probiotics that support the gut-immune connection behind seasonal comfort. Whole foods provide some antioxidants, but every scoop adds a concentrated, consistent amount.
Gut & digestive support
Labs will eat almost anything, and their stomachs don't always agree. A healthy gut means comfortable digestion, regular stools, and support for nutrient absorption from every meal. Consistent mealtimes, gradual food switches, and keeping trash cans and counters out of reach go a long way. The gut also plays a role in immune balance and skin comfort, which is why it's foundational.
How supplements add support
Every Canine Keeps formula includes multiple strains of probiotics, including spore-forming strains that hold up well in the bowl, plus a prebiotic to help them thrive.
Heart & healthy aging support
A strong heart, clear eyes, and a sharp mind help keep a Lab's best years going. Labs are generally considered seniors around age 7 to 8, when their needs start to shift. Regular vet checkups, steady daily activity, and a consistent routine all help them age well.
How supplements add support
Every Canine Keeps formula includes omega-3s from fish oil and DHA, which support heart, brain, and eye health, plus antioxidant-rich blueberry and spirulina to help protect cells as they age. For senior Labs, a healthy aging focus adds ingredients like CoQ10 and taurine for extra heart and vitality support.
