Collagen Synthesis for Dogs: Strengthen Skin, Joints & Vitality Naturally

Collagen Synthesis in Dogs: The Foundation of Skin, Coat, and Joint Health

Collagen is a vital structural protein in your dog’s body, making up nearly 30% of total protein mass. It's essential for skin elasticity, fur strength, joint function, and connective tissue resilience. As dogs age, collagen production slows dramatically—leading to dryness, dull coats, visible aging, and mobility issues. Supporting collagen synthesis helps reverse and prevent these age-related changes.

Pet Gala™ by La Petite Labs is specifically designed to fuel your dog’s internal beauty mechanisms. With hydrolyzed peptides, vitamin C, biotin, hyaluronic acid, and zinc, it provides the nutritional scaffolding needed for collagen to thrive.

Why Collagen Declines with Age

  • Oxidative stress breaks down existing collagen faster than it can be replaced
  • Nutrient depletion reduces the amino acids and cofactors needed for synthesis
  • Inflammation impairs fibroblast activity, which are the cells responsible for collagen production

Signs Your Dog May Have Low Collagen Levels

  • Dull, brittle fur that sheds easily
  • Dry, sagging, or flaky skin
  • Slowed wound healing
  • Joint stiffness or reduced mobility
  • Brittle nails that split or break

How to Support Collagen Production Naturally

Feeding a collagen-supportive supplement helps stimulate fibroblasts—the cells that produce collagen—while also reducing the breakdown of existing tissue. Pet Gala includes:

  • Hydrolyzed Whey Protein – Provides glycine, proline, and hydroxyproline, the building blocks of collagen
  • Vitamin C – Required for collagen cross-linking and tissue repair
  • Zinc – Acts as a cofactor for collagen-forming enzymes
  • Biotin – Supports keratin and collagen synergy for fur and nail strength
  • Silica (from Bamboo Extract) – Enhances collagen elasticity and firmness

Did You Know?

By the time your dog reaches 8–10 years old, their natural collagen production may have declined by over 30%, increasing the risk of sagging skin, shedding, and joint stiffness.

FAQ

Can I give collagen supplements to my puppy?

Collagen supplements are typically safe, but Pet Gala is formulated for adult dogs. Puppies may not need additional collagen unless advised by your vet.

Will collagen help with my dog’s shedding?

Yes. Collagen strengthens the hair shaft and root, which can help reduce excessive shedding and improve coat thickness.

How long until I see results?

Most owners report visible improvements in fur, skin, and nail quality within 3–6 weeks of daily use.

Is collagen safe for dogs with allergies?

Pet Gala is free from common allergens like artificial preservatives and fillers, but always consult your vet before introducing new supplements.
