formulas
Fennris Pets has gold-standard formulations to deliver clinically proven health benefits to your pets.
Astaxanthin
Antarctic Krill is natural resource of
Astaxanthin.
Astaxanthin is
- Powerful Antioxidant
Astaxanthin elevates the antioxidant function in the body.* Counteract the increased oxidation during disease.
- Immunity Helper
Astaxanthin reduces oxidative stress on DNA and immune cells.* Improves vaccine response.
- Fights Infalammations
Astaxanthin have anti-inflammatory properties.**
- Protect All Body Cells
Astaxanthin integratesinto cell membranes and protect against oxidation from free radicals and reactive oxygen species.
*Park et al, 2010. **Chew et al, 2011.
Phospholipids
Antarctic Krill is natural resource of
Phospholipids.
- Phospholipids
the form that carries omega-3 that improve absorption.
A phospholipid is the same type of molecule that forms every cell membrane in the body. This allows EPA and DHA to be incorporated into tissues efficiently.
Marine Omega-3
Antarctic Krill is natural resource of
Marine Omega-3.
Marine Omega-3provides dogs with EPA and DHA.
The long-chain omega-3 fatty acids from krill are directly incorporated into cell membranes.
- Healthy Inflammatory Response.*
- Marine EPA & DHA have been shown to support mobility.
- EPA & DHA supplementation has been associated with improvements in hair-coat quality.
- DHA-rich marine oil has been associated with improved learning, memory and retinal function in growing dogs.**
- Significantly increased the Omega-3 Index in dogs.

*Zicker et al., 2012
Choline
Antarctic Krill is natural resource of
Choline (phosphatidylcholine).
Choline is essantial for
- Buiding cell membranes
- Transporting liver fat to prevent fatty liver
- Nerve impulse transmission in brain and muscles
- Providing methyl groups that maintain liver, heart and kidney health
Antarctic krill contains phosphatidylcholine (PC).
PC shows larger (265% vs 86%) and more long-lasting (12hrs vs 4hrs) effects on choline concentrations than choline salts.*

*Hirsch et al. (1978), Metabolism
Nucleotides
Antarctic Krill is natural resource of
Nucleotides.
Nucleotides are building blocks of DNA/RNA that holds genetic information.
- Contribute to biochemical processes in the body
- Support immune system
- Support cell growth in the intestine and Positively modulate intestinal microbiota
- Helps maintain blood glucose levels during fasting
Immune cells, RBCs and intestinal cells are often renewed – benefits and occasionally even dependent on nucleotides from dietary supplement.*

Researched by
our Supporting Nutrition Specialist, Tonje Elisabeth Dominguez
alongside the Index analysis by OmegaQuant
at the University of South Dakota School of Medicine, USA.
A significant increase in the canine Omega-3 Index
was observed after 3 weeks of krill oil supplementation.¹
demonstrates that dogs using our krill oil
- "had a significant increase in the levels of EPA and DHA,
and a significant reduction in the n-6/n-3 ratio in the RBCs,
would be beneficial in providing the dogswith a more anti-inflammatory immune state."¹
