About the Bloodhound

Bloodhounds trace back centuries to hounds kept by monks at the Abbey of Saint-Hubert in Belgium. Their scenting ability is so remarkable that trailing evidence from Bloodhounds has been accepted in courts of law.

Gentle, affectionate, and famously determined once they catch a scent, Bloodhounds are big dogs with big hearts. Their size, long ears, and loose skin are part of why daily wellness is worth thinking about early.

Adding a high-quality daily supplement to your Bloodhound's routine is a great way to support their overall health. Pair it with a healthy diet, long sniff walks, regular vet care, and weekly ear and skin-fold care.

What's the best supplement for Bloodhounds?

A daily supplement personalized to your Bloodhound supports a healthy, active life, with targeted support for the areas Bloodhounds need most: their hips and joints, skin, coat, and ears, digestion, and heart and healthy aging. The right balance depends on their age, weight, activity level, lifestyle and what you are seeing day to day.

A few quick questions is all it takes to build one formula around them.

Get Started

Hip & joint support

Bloodhounds are big, heavy-boned scent hounds that can follow a trail for miles, and their hips and elbows carry a lot of weight along the way. Keeping them lean, steady daily walks to build muscle, and avoiding too much jumping while they're growing all help keep them on the trail comfortably.

How supplements add support

Every Canine Keeps formula starts with our Keepwell Blend™, which includes green-lipped mussel, collagen, and PEA to support cartilage, cushioning, and everyday mobility, plus omega-3s from fish oil and DHA. Most diets don't provide joint-specific nutrients like these in meaningful amounts, so a daily serving keeps them consistent. If joints are your Bloodhound's top priority, their Balanced Blend adds more targeted support on top.

Skin, coat & ear support

Those long ears and loose, wrinkled skin help funnel scent toward the Bloodhound's nose, and they also trap moisture, drool, and debris. Cleaning ears weekly, wiping facial folds daily, and brushing their short coat help, and because skin comfort is connected to the gut and immune system, support from the inside matters too.

How supplements add support

Canine Keeps supports skin and coat from the inside, with omega-3s from fish oil and DHA, antioxidant-rich blueberry and spirulina, and probiotics that support the gut-immune connection behind seasonal comfort. Whole foods provide some antioxidants, but every scoop adds a concentrated, consistent amount.

Gut & digestive support

Deep-chested breeds like the Bloodhound do best with calm, consistent mealtimes, and their legendary nose finds plenty of things they shouldn't eat. A healthy gut means comfortable digestion and regular stools. Splitting food into two or more meals, avoiding hard exercise right around meals, and gradual food switches all help.

How supplements add support

Every Canine Keeps formula includes multiple strains of probiotics, including spore-forming strains that hold up well in the bowl, plus a prebiotic to help them thrive. If digestion is your Bloodhound's top priority, their Balanced Blend adds extra digestive support on top.

Heart & healthy aging support

Like many large breeds, Bloodhounds reach their senior years sooner, often around age 7. A strong heart, clear eyes, and steady energy help keep their best years going. Regular checkups, gentle daily walks, and keeping them lean all help them age well.

How supplements add support

Every Canine Keeps formula includes omega-3s from fish oil and DHA, which support heart, brain, and eye health, plus antioxidant-rich blueberry and spirulina to help protect cells as they age. For senior Bloodhounds, a healthy aging focus adds ingredients like CoQ10 and taurine for extra heart and vitality support.

Why Canine Keeps for Bloodhounds

Get My Dog's Formula

Even a great diet doesn't always cover everything a Bloodhound needs. Every Canine Keeps formula starts with a foundation of everyday support, then adds targeted ingredients based on your dog's unique needs.

Our formulas are made with premium, human-grade ingredients, formulated by a canine nutritionist, and minimally processed to protect delicate nutrients. Their daily serving is based on their weight, so big dogs get the right amount, and because it mixes right into their meal, it quickly becomes part of the daily routine, without the fillers and empty calories that come with many soft chews.

It's support that grows with them, from the puppy years, when building a strong foundation matters most, to their senior years, when a little extra support helps keep their best days going.

What dog parents are saying

“Lily loves her Canine Keeps. Her stool has been firmer, and seems to be less itchy! She actually enjoys her food more now that this is on it.”
Arum K.Lily
“Duke's balanced blend has been a great addition to his diet. With his age (14) he's a very picky eater, but scarfs his food down with the powdered blend. His skin/coat, digestion, and joints have been reenergized.”
Davin Z.Duke, 14 years old
“I've noticed benefits from him on this supplement blend already! He seems to have way more balanced energy, no hip or joint stiffness, and generally happier all around.”
George R.
“Not only does he love the taste of the powder on his food, but I've noticed an improvement in his itching and paw licking! Such an easy and tailored solution to giving your pet supplements.”

Bloodhound questions, answered

When should I start joint support for my Bloodhound?

The earlier, the better. Big, heavy-boned breeds put a lot of weight on their joints, and joint support works best as a consistent daily habit that starts early. Every Canine Keeps formula includes it, and our formulas are recommended for dogs 6 months and older.

Can a supplement help my Bloodhound's skin and ears?

Yes. Cleaning their ears and facial folds cares for them on the outside, while a daily supplement supports a healthy skin barrier and the gut-immune balance behind skin comfort from the inside out. The two work best together.

How long until I notice a difference?

Many dog parents notice a difference within the first couple of weeks. The best results come with about 90 days of consistent daily use, as the benefits build over time. That's why our flexible deliveries make it easy to never miss a day, and why every order is backed by our 90-day risk-free guarantee.
