Their Food: If your dog eats "Grain-Free" food or food with lots of peas, lentils, or chickpeas, they might need extra Taurine to keep their heart strong.
Their Size: Big and "Giant" dogs often run low on Taurine faster than small dogs.
Their Age: Just like people, a dog's heart needs more help as they get older.
