How do I use Petterm Muscle Gain Soft Chews?
Table of contents
Petterm Muscle Gain Soft Chews are a daily supplement designed to support healthy weight gain, lean muscle development, and recovery in dogs.
Daily routine
- Check the daily dose for your dog’s weight (see dosage guide).
- Offer from the hand, the bowl, or during training — most dogs take chews like a regular treat.
- Split larger doses across the day if your dog gets 3+ chews — morning + evening works well.
What’s in the formula
- Whey protein concentrate — high-quality, bioavailable amino acids for muscle synthesis.
- L-leucine and BCAAs — branched-chain amino acids that drive muscle repair after activity.
- Creatine monohydrate — supports muscle energy stores during exertion (well-studied in canine supplementation).
- Vitamin B complex — supports protein metabolism and energy conversion.
Best use cases
- Senior dogs losing muscle mass with age (sarcopenia).
- Dogs recovering from surgery, injury, or extended illness.
- Underweight or “ribby” dogs who eat well but aren’t filling out.
- Working or active breeds with high muscle turnover.
- Bully breeds, Pit Bulls, Mastiffs with naturally heavy muscle structure.
What chews are not for
- Weight loss support — different formula needed.
- Joint pain — supplement targets muscle, not joints. (Pair with a glucosamine supplement if joint pain is a concern.)
- Quick-fix size gain in show dogs — supplements build muscle gradually over months, not weeks. There’s no shortcut.
Pair with light exercise
Supplementation builds muscle most efficiently when paired with 2–3 short walks per day or light activity appropriate for your dog’s age and condition. Muscle synthesis is triggered by use, then supported by nutrition.
