Yes, it is the exact same product for both dogs and cats.

Each pet is different, but it should be between 2-4 weeks.

Teeth cleaning is important for removing tartar and plaque from your dog's teeth, an important part of oral health. 1-TDC® keeps the gums healthy, the major element of oral health.  Ideally you want to do both. 1-TDC® complements teeth cleaning and other oral care procedures. 

Yes. Allergies come from protein, and 1-TDC® is a fatty acid. So, any animals allergic to beef should be safe. Of course we recommend you consult with your veterinarian first who has a full medical history of your dog. 

There are no known side-effects or contraindications with other medicines or products. 1-TDC® is intended for long-term use in dogs and cats throughout their life and they will not develop any resistance to the product.

Like all other supplements, if you have a health issue going on with your pet, it is always recommended to discuss any treatments with your veterinarian. One case where you would not use 1-TDC® (and most other products) is if there is an active case of pancreatitis occurring.

Omega 3 fish oils provide great general health benefits. However, when it comes to joint health, 1-TDC® provides superior results. Also, fish oils provide very limited periodontal benefit. Therefore, continue to use fish oils for general health and add 1-TDC® for superior gum and joint health results.

1-TDC® has an affinity for white blood cells, which makes it a more targeted and effective solution. Additionally, 1-TDC® is transdermal, which gives it the ability to effectively be absorbed and work locally.

1-TDC is totally compatible with other supplements you may be using. Our CMO suggests cutting the dosage of fish oil by 50% if you are giving your pet a fish oil supplement.

Extremely palatable, since it is derived from beef tallow. Pets see it as a treat...even cats.

Our Chief Medical Officer, a boarded veterinary dentist with over 40 years of clinical experience, recommends you start once your dog's adult teeth are in (around 6 months of age). 

You can give your dog 1-TDC® whenever it is convenient for you. Before meal, after meal, with meal, morning, evening ... it doesn't matter.

If you have a young, healthy pet and you are being proactive, the loading dose is not necessary. If your pet is older or has oral health or mobility issues, then I would suggest the loading dose to get the 1-TDC® into the system faster.

Yes, every pet is different, keeping them on the loading dose is ok.

No, the capsule is made to be ingested.

No, usually they will be just fine. Worst case, maybe some diarrhea.

No. Soft gels get soft in warmer, humid weather and hard in cooler, dry weather. If yours are hard, a trick to keeping them softer (easier to use) is to put a little piece of bread in the bottle much like you do with cookies to keep them from getting stale/hard. The moisture in the bread will soften the soft gels.

If the capsules are stuck together, you can put the bottle in the refrigerator for an hour and then just shake the bottle to unstick the capsules. If that doesn’t work, give us a call and we will send you a replacement bottle. We want you to be happy and we do not want your money if you are not.

Color changes from batch to batch are normal. When you squeeze out the contents of the capsule it should be an oily paste. If the product has separated into an oil and a grainy substance, then the capsules were exposed to high temperatures in transit for too long.

Worry not, however, because its efficacy or safety doesn't get affected by high heat. That being said, if that’s the case and you’re still skeptical, or its just difficult to administer it in a liquid form … give us a call or email us and we will send you a replacement bottle for free.

It may take a while for some pets to get accustomed to the product. Squeezing the capsule contents into an empty dish and then putting a little treat in the 1-TDC® paste helps.

Eventually, when you shake the bottle, your dog will come running. As a last resort, you can put 1-TDC® paste on the pina of the ear, and remove it after 10 minutes. That way it will absorb into the dog’s system.

1-TetraDecanol Complex, which is the molecular name. 1-TDC® is a patented blend of fatty acid oils from beef tallow.

1-TDC® is a proprietary blend of fatty acid oils from USA beef tallow.  The two key ingredients are 1-TetraDecanol Complex (1-TDC®) from beef tallow and Wild Alaskan Salmon Oil. Every batch will have the same efficacy your dog's health can rely upon.
