The Science

What we know about creatine + dogs

Creatine is a naturally occurring compound found in muscle tissue. A dog's body makes some creatine, and diet can provide additional creatine.

Creatine is well studied in humans. The canine research base is much smaller, and we're not going to pretend otherwise.

Creatine Canine combines creatine monohydrate and L-carnitine with essential amino acids and supporting nutrients selected to support healthy muscle, cellular energy and everyday vitality.

An evidence-led daily formula built around creatine + L-carnitine.

Our Position

How we talk about evidence

  • Creatine is one of the most studied dietary compounds in humans.

    That body of work is why creatine is familiar. It is not, on its own, a statement about what any product does in dogs.

  • The canine research base is much smaller.

    There is published work on dietary creatine in dogs, but it is limited. We'd rather say that plainly than dress it up.

  • We focus on responsible support.

    Creatine Canine is a daily formula built around creatine monohydrate and L-carnitine and developed by a Ph.D. animal nutritionist. We focus on supporting healthy muscle, cellular energy and everyday vitality without presenting human research as product-specific proof in dogs.
