Rose-Hip Vital Canine

Rose-Hip Vital Canine is a single-ingredient joint and mobility supplement built around a patented rosehip (Rosa canina) powder standardised for the galactolipid GOPO, a natural anti-inflammatory and antioxidant rich in vitamin C. It is a powder you scoop onto food once or twice daily, with the dose scaled to your dog's weight, and it is APVMA-registered and backed by published research. The range is deliberately narrow: the same rosehip powder in 150g, 500g and 1.5kg tubs plus value bundles, with no flavourings, fillers or added actives. It sits at a premium price point and is widely available through Pet Circle, Petbarn, Budget Pet Products and the brand's own site.
