Product Description
The iO Calcium Carbonate 1kg is a premium 99% pure, Australian-made feed-grade calcium supplement formulated to provide a highly concentrated source of elemental calcium for dogs. Made from a single natural ingredient with no added fillers, it contains 40% elemental calcium and is ideal for breeders supporting nursing bitches during lactation or supplementing growing puppies when recommended by a veterinarian.
Calcium is essential for normal muscle function, nerve transmission, healthy bones and teeth, and ongoing milk production. iO Calcium is ideal once whelping is complete and the mother has settled into nursing her litter, as calcium requirements increase significantly. iO Calcium Carbonate provides an easy-to-mix source of dietary calcium to help support these increased nutritional demands.

Additional Information
iO Calcium Carbonate is a high-quality, single-ingredient feed-grade calcium supplement manufactured in Australia. Its exceptional purity and lack of unnecessary fillers make it a trusted choice for breeders and animal health professionals. It is commonly used to support nursing bitches throughout lactation when calcium requirements increase and may also be used to supplement growing puppies under veterinary guidance.
Please Note
iO Calcium Carbonate is intended for use after whelping has finished and the bitch has settled into nursing her puppies. During active labour, fast-acting liquid calcium syrups are generally preferred, as calcium carbonate requires stomach acid for absorption and is not rapidly absorbed during whelping.
Warning
Do not supplement pregnant dogs with calcium unless specifically directed by your veterinarian. Excessive calcium supplementation can lead to nutritional imbalances, particularly in growing puppies or dogs already receiving a complete and balanced diet. Always seek veterinary advice before supplementing lactating or growing dogs, or animals with existing health conditions.
