Dr+Vet is evolving: welcome to AndersenPets

A new phase that consolidates our identity within the Andersen Group and shapes our international future

For more than four years, Dr+Vet has been a brand closely linked to innovation in veterinary nutraceuticals, especially in the field of ophthalmology. What began as a technical and specialized project has established itself as one of the most recognized ranges of nutraceuticals within the veterinary sector in Spain and beyond.

Today we are taking a firm step towards the future: Dr+Vet is officially becoming AndersenPets.

Why this change now?
The decision to evolve into AndersenPets is not the result of a one-off action or an isolated strategy. It is the result of deep reflection and a clear desire to align our brand identity with the values of the group to which we have belonged since the beginning: the Andersen Group.

As Dag Andersen, CEO of the company, rightly says: “From the beginning, we knew that this project had to grow with personality, technical quality, and an international vision. The change to AndersenPets is a natural evolution that reflects our maturity and strengthens our message as a company committed to animal health.”

In an increasingly professionalized sector, it is essential to have a strong, unique, and distinctive brand. This rebranding allows us to build a clearer, unambiguous identity that is aligned with our origins and the international spirit of the group.

What does AndersenPets mean?

AndersenPets represents the union of our origins (the Andersen company, with more than 50 years of history) with our present and future as a company focused on the health and well-being of pets.

The new name perfectly integrates the veterinary line focused on pets within the Andersen structure, differentiating itself from the group’s other commercial brands, but maintaining the same essence.

AndersenPets is more than just a name change. It is a reaffirmation of our commitment to evidence-based medicine, quality clinical training, and ongoing collaboration with clinical veterinarians and specialists throughout Europe.

What changes does this rebranding entail?

The team remains the same: professionals committed to developing effective, safe, and easy-to-use products for clinical practice. The product range remains the same: from ophthalmic supplements such as Retinae, Occulus+, Glauco+, and Lacrimalis+ to our digestive (Digestum, Colitum) and metabolic (Glyco) solutions. Our values remain unchanged: science, proximity, and collaboration.

What will happen now?

Starting today, we are beginning a gradual brand transition process. For a few months, you will see both identities coexisting: Dr+Vet and AndersenPets. This will affect packaging, communications, social media, and commercial materials.

We want the process to be natural, without affecting our customers or distributors. That is why we are temporarily keeping both brands visible, until the change is complete and recognizable.

Thank you for joining us

This rebranding would not be possible without the trust of everyone who has been part of Dr+Vet until now: veterinarians, distributors, trainers, hospitals, and, of course, the guardians who trust our solutions to improve the lives of their pets.

👉 From now on, follow us as AndersenPets on social media, newsletters, and corporate materials.

Dr+Vet evolves with you. We are now AndersenPets.

All about Glaucoma in Pets: Causes, Symptoms and Treatments for Pets

Glaucoma in animals is a chronic eye disease that affects both dogs and cats, among other species. It is usually characterized by an increase in intraocular pressure (IOP), which damages the optic nerve and retina, leading to progressive loss of vision and even blindness. As intraocular fluid, known as aqueous humor, accumulates due to a failure of its natural drainage, the pressure inside the eye increases, causing irreversible damage to the internal ocular structures.

The importance of the optic nerve and aqueous humor

The optic nerve is essential in the visual process, since it is responsible for transmitting the images captured by the retina to the brain, where they are processed to generate vision. This nerve is very sensitive to changes in pressure inside the eye. The aqueous humor, on the other hand, is a liquid that flows continuously inside the eye, providing nutrients to the internal ocular structures and eliminating waste. Under normal conditions, this fluid is drained through a specialized system in the iridocorneal angle, but in cases of glaucoma, this outflow is blocked or reduced, causing an accumulation of fluid that raises eye pressure.

There are two main types of glaucoma: primary glaucoma and secondary glaucoma. Primary glaucoma is related to genetic and anatomical causes, being more frequent in predisposed breeds of dogs, such as Cocker Spaniel or Maltese Bichon. Secondary glaucoma, on the other hand, arises as a consequence of other ocular diseases or trauma, such as chronic uveitis, lens dislocation or cataracts. The latter type is more common in cats.

Symptoms of glaucoma in animals

Glaucoma is a difficult disease to detect in its early stages, as animals usually adapt to the gradual loss of vision without showing obvious symptoms. However, as the disease progresses, clinical signs become more evident. Symptoms of glaucoma include:

  • Red eyes
  • Severe eye pain, causing the animal to rub its eyes or avoid light.
  • Dilated pupils that do not respond adequately to light
  • Blurred vision
  • Nausea, vomiting, irritability and behavioral changes due to pain
  • Cloudy appearance or bluish halo in the affected eye
  • Sensitivity to light (photophobia)
  • Disorientation or difficulty moving around in familiar spaces

In more advanced stages, animals may exhibit aggressive behavior or irritability due to severe pain. It is important to remember that animals can adapt to vision loss without noticing it in early stages, so regular veterinary checkups are crucial to detect and treat this disease early.

Diagnosis of glaucoma

Diagnosis of glaucoma requires a thorough ophthalmologic evaluation. The most common tests include tonometry, which measures IOP and determines whether it is within normal limits, and ophthalmoscopy, to assess the condition of the optic nerve and retina. In some cases, gonioscopy may be performed to observe the iridocorneal angle, where the aqueous humor drains, and to determine if there is an obstruction in the flow of this fluid.

Early detection is essential to prevent irreversible damage to the optic nerve and loss of vision. Unfortunately, in many pets glaucoma presents acutely, with obvious symptoms, making intervention urgent.

Treatment of glaucoma in animals

Treatment of glaucoma in animals is aimed at reducing IOP and preventing further vision loss. There are two main approaches: medical treatment and surgical treatment.

  1. Medical treatment: In less severe cases, glaucoma can be managed with medications that reduce the production of aqueous humor or improve its drainage. These medications are usually eye drops, although systemic treatments are also available.
  2. Surgical treatment: When medical treatment is not sufficient, surgery is used. There are two main options:
    • Laser: Used to reduce the production of aqueous humor in the affected eye.
    • Drainage implants: Valves or tubes are placed to allow the aqueous humor to drain out of the eye, reducing internal pressure.

Both treatments are aimed at preventing the progression of glaucoma and preserving vision, although in advanced cases blindness may be inevitable.

Nutraceuticals in the management of glaucoma

Nutraceuticals play a complementary role in the management of glaucoma, helping to protect the optic nerve and improve ocular microcirculation.  Glauco+ from Dr+Vet by AndersenPets is an example of a supplement specially formulated for animals with glaucoma. It contains ingredients such as:

  • Ginkgo biloba, which improves ocular circulation and helps protect the optic nerve from ischemic damage.
  • Vaccinium myrtillus (bilberry), rich in antioxidants that neutralize free radicals and improve ocular blood flow.
  • Citicoline, a neuroprotectant that supports visual function and the central nervous system by protecting retinal ganglion cells from oxidative stress.

The use of these nutraceuticals can help slow the progression of glaucoma and improve the quality of life of affected pets, although they should always be combined with appropriate medical and surgical treatment.

Glaucoma prevention

Since glaucoma can be asymptomatic in its early stages, prevention is key. Genetically predisposed breeds, such as Cocker Spaniel, French Bulldog and Maltese Bichon, should undergo regular ophthalmologic checkups to detect any early signs of the disease. In some cases, veterinarians may prescribe preventive eye drops to lower IOP in pets with a family history of glaucoma.

In general, glaucoma is a disease that requires multidisciplinary management. The combination of medication, surgery and nutraceuticals may offer a better prognosis and preserve vision longer. It is essential that veterinarians watch for clinical signs and educate guardians on the importance of ophthalmologic examinations to detect glaucoma early.

Use of L-carnitine in canine and feline obesity management

Weight control in our pets is a growing concern.

As in humans, obesity in animals can trigger serious health problems such as diabetes, heart disease or joint disease. This is where L-Carnitine, a natural supplement derived from the amino acids lysine and methionine, can play an important role.

What is L-Carnitine?

L-Carnitine is an amino acid that acts as a transporter of fatty acids into the mitochondria of cells, where they are converted into energy. This process is crucial for fat metabolism, which helps promote weight loss in animals that are overweight or predisposed to gain weight easily.

This amino acid is present in red meats such as lamb and beef, although in small amounts. However, many times commercial pet diets do not contain enough L-Carnitine to generate the desired effects, so supplementation is necessary to achieve optimal levels that promote fat burning.

How does L-Carnitine work in pets?

L-Carnitine promotes the fatty acid oxidation process, which means it can improve metabolic efficiency and help burn stored fat. This process is particularly useful in overweight pets, as it helps increase the conversion of fat into energy, which promotes weight loss when combined with a balanced diet and adequate physical activity.

For cats or dogs suffering from obesity, L-Carnitine becomes a key supplement to safely reduce body fat. As in humans, it is recommended to combine it with regular exercise to improve its effectiveness.

Benefits of L-Carnitine in Animal Weight Management

  • Promotes fat burning: By transporting fatty acids into the mitochondria, it facilitates the utilization of stored fat as a source of energy.
  • Increases metabolism: This helps pets burn more calories, even at rest, improving weight management.
  • Protects muscle mass: By promoting fat burning, L-Carnitine helps preserve muscle mass, which is important during weight loss programs.

Use of L-Carnitine in Pet Products

Glyco from Dr+Vet by Andersenpets is a supplement specifically designed to aid in weight loss for dogs and cats, L-Carnitine is one of the main ingredients. This supplement not only includes L-Carnitine, but also other natural compounds that help control glucose metabolism and improve the overall health of the animal.

In addition to L-Carnitine Glyco also contains:

  • Hypoglycemic Substances: Ingredients that help balance blood glucose, which is essential to prevent metabolic disorders in overweight pets.
  • Group B Vitamins: These vitamins are crucial for the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats and proteins, converting food into energy and supporting a healthy metabolism.
  • Fatty Acids: Omega-3 is noted for its anti-inflammatory properties, contributing to joint health and mobility in obese animals.
  • Plant Extracts: Plant extracts with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, which can help reduce oxidative stress and inflammation in the body.

Conclusion

L-Carnitine is an excellent ally for weight control in pets, helping to mobilize accumulated fats and promoting a more efficient metabolism. If your pet struggles with being overweight, consult your veterinarian about the possibility of including Glyco from Dr+Vet by Andersenpets in their diet to improve their health and quality of life.

You can purchase or recommend Glyco through StorePetcare!

Cataracts in Pets: Causes, Progression and Treatments

Cataracts are an eye condition that can affect both dogs and cats, and although more common in older animals, they can also develop in younger pets due to genetic factors or underlying diseases. Understanding how cataracts form, how they worsen over time and what treatment options are available is crucial to providing the best care for our pets.

What are Cataracts?

A cataract is a clouding of the crystalline lens, the clear lens of the eye that focuses light onto the retina. When the lens becomes opaque, a pet’s vision is impaired. Depending on the severity of the cataract, this can range from a slight decrease in vision to complete blindness.

Cataracts can affect one or both eyes, and their development can be gradual or rapid. Although they occur more frequently in dogs than in cats, both species can be affected.

How do cataracts form?

Cataracts develop due to a change in the structure of the lens proteins, which causes them to become opaque instead of transparent. This process can have several causes:

1. Genetic factors

In dogs, genetic cataracts are a common cause, especially in certain breeds. Breeds such as the Cocker Spaniel, Poodle, and Golden Retriever have a genetic predisposition to develop cataracts, often at an early age. In cats, although genetic cataracts are less common, certain breeds may also be predisposed.

2. Metabolic Diseases

Diabetes mellitus is a major cause of cataracts in dogs. In diabetic animals, elevated glucose levels in the lens cause a buildup of sorbitol, a substance that attracts water to the lens, leading to swelling and opacification. This type of cataract can develop rapidly, in a matter of weeks or months.

3. Trauma

Eye injuries, such as severe blows to the eye, can damage the lens and trigger the formation of a cataract. In these cases, the cataract usually develops in the affected eye and may be progressive.

4. Inflammatory Diseases

Uveitis, an inflammation of the eye that can be caused by infections or autoimmune diseases, can also induce cataract formation. Chronic inflammation can alter the composition of the ocular fluid, affecting the lens and favoring its opacification.

5. Age

Natural aging is a common cause of cataracts in older pets. Over time, biochemical changes in the lens cause proteins to clump together, forming opaque areas that make vision difficult.

Cataract Progression

The rate at which a cataract progresses can vary depending on the underlying cause. Some cataracts remain stable and do not significantly affect vision for years, while others may worsen rapidly.

In early stages, the cataract may be small and affect only a portion of the lens, causing a slight decrease in vision. Over time, the cataract may grow and cover more areas of the lens, resulting in more severe visual loss.

If left untreated, an advanced cataract can lead to additional complications, such as glaucoma. This occurs when clouding of the lens disrupts the circulation of aqueous humor, the fluid that nourishes and maintains eye pressure. The increased pressure inside the eye can damage the optic nerve, leading to permanent blindness if left untreated.

Cataract Treatments for Pets

Treatment for cataracts depends on the degree of visual impairment and the underlying cause. Currently, there are no medical treatments that can reverse a cataract, so intervention usually focuses on symptom management or surgery.

1. Medical Treatment

Although there are no medications that can eliminate a cataract once it has formed, medical treatment may be helpful in certain cases:

  • Anti-inflammatory drops and eye medication: In cases of cataracts related to ocular inflammation or uveitis, medications can be used to reduce inflammation and prevent further complications, such as glaucoma. Drops can also help control pain and irritation.
  • Control of underlying disease: In pets with diabetes-induced cataracts, it is critical to control blood glucose levels to prevent rapid progression of cataracts and other diabetes-related complications.
  • Use of nutraceuticals: Some nutraceuticals with antioxidants and vitamins beneficial to the eye can help slow the rate of cataract development. One of them would be Occulus+ from Dr+Vet by AndersenPets.

While medical treatments can alleviate symptoms or slow the progression, they do not eliminate cataracts, so the most effective option is still surgery.

2. Surgical Treatment

Surgery is the only definitive treatment to remove cataracts and restore vision. The most commonly used technique is phacoemulsification, similar to cataract surgery in humans.

Phacoemulsification procedure

During surgery, the veterinarian makes a small incision in the eye and uses ultrasound to fragment and remove the cloudy lens. An artificial intraocular lens is then placed in the eye to replace the natural lens, restoring the eye’s ability to focus.

Cataract surgery in pets has a high success rate, with most animals regaining functional vision. However, it is not without risks, such as infection, inflammation or postoperative complications, so proper follow-up after the procedure is important.

Requirements for Surgery

Not all animals are ideal candidates for surgery. The veterinarian will evaluate the pet’s general health, the condition of the eyes and whether there are other conditions, such as advanced glaucoma or retinal detachment, that could affect the success of the operation.

Conclusion

Cataracts in pets, although common, can significantly affect their quality of life if left untreated. From their formation to their progression, early diagnosis is critical to consider the most appropriate treatment options. Surgery is the most effective treatment to restore vision in animals with advanced cataracts, while medical management can help control symptoms and prevent complications. Regular veterinary follow-up is essential to ensure that our pets enjoy a full and healthy life, even in their old age.

Obese or overweight cat: is it normal?

Feline obesity is a growing problem that affects a large number of domestic cats.

This problem not only decreases the quality of life of our pets, but can also lead to serious health complications such as diabetes, fatty liver and osteoarthritis due to joint overload. Nowadays, a good diet is essential to help your cat lose weight in a healthy way. Discover everything about this silent disease in our blog today.

How do you know if a cat is obese?

Obesity is the most common form of malnutrition among pets. It is estimated that between 25% and 30% of cats suffer from obesity. A cat is considered obese when its weight exceeds its ideal weight by 20% due to excessive fat accumulation. For example, in a “normal” European cat weighing about 4kg, if it weighed 4.8kg it would already fall into the obese category.

The ideal weight that a cat should have will depend on its age, sex and breed. A cat at its ideal weight will have a visible waist when viewed from above, in addition to being able to feel the ribs on the sides by touch without them being visible.

If the ribs and spine are visible to the naked eye, the cat is in poor body condition and should be checked by a veterinarian. However, if you can’t easily feel the ribs due to a layer of fat and there is no visible waist, your cat is likely overweight.

Why do cats get fat?

Ideally, cats should receive an amount of food that keeps their weight in a healthy range. Obesity in cats can be caused by multiple factors, including:

  • Inadequate diet : Foods high in calories and low in dietary fiber.
  • Lack of exercise : Domestic cats tend to be less active.
  • Genetic factors : Some breeds are more likely to gain weight.
  • Overfeeding : Overfeeding, especially with treats and treats.

Dangers of Feline Obesity

Obesity in cats can cause several serious diseases such as:

Diabetes

Excess weight increases the risk of cats developing diabetes mellitus. This disease is characterized by a deficiency in insulin production or an inadequate response to insulin, leading to high blood glucose levels.

Fatty Liver (Hepatic Lipidosis)

Hepatic lipidosis is a serious condition that occurs when the liver becomes overloaded with fat, which can lead to liver failure. Obese cats are particularly susceptible to this disease, especially if they lose weight quickly.

Osteoarthritis

Excess weight puts extra stress on the joints, which can lead to osteoarthritis. This degenerative joint disease causes pain and decreased mobility, significantly affecting cats’ quality of life. Furthermore, by reducing the level of exercise due to pain, it also feeds back to weight gain, worsening the disease.

How to make a cat lose weight?

Adequate Diet

A balanced and adequate diet is essential to help your cat lose weight:

  • Low-calorie foods : Opt for foods specifically formulated for overweight cats. There is light feed, light wet food…
  • Controlled portions : Avoid overfeeding, limit a maximum amount of food per day.
  • Foods rich in protein : They help maintain muscle mass while losing fat.
  • Fibers : They help maintain the feeling of satiety and regulate intestinal transit.

Exercise

Increasing your cat’s physical activity is crucial for weight loss. Play with your cat using interactive toys, and encourage the use of cat trees and scratching posts to keep him active.

Nutritional supplements: Glyco by Dr+Vet by AndersenPets

Glyco from Dr+Vet by AndersenPets is a supplement for dogs and cats specially formulated to help in the weight loss process that contains active ingredients that promote weight loss safely and effectively:

L -Carnitine is an amino acid that helps increase the body’s energy consumption, promoting fat burning. In addition, Glyco is formulated with several hypoglycemic substances that can help obese animals in their goal of reaching their ideal weight.

How long does it take for a cat to lose weight?

Weight loss in cats should be gradual to avoid health problems. A cat can safely lose 1-2% of its body weight per week. This loss must also be controlled by your trusted veterinarian, since the pet’s evolution must be closely monitored.

Conclusion

Feline obesity is a serious problem that requires proper attention. Combining a balanced diet with exercise and supplements like Glyco from Dr+Vet by AndersenPets can make a big difference in your cat’s health and quality of life. Always remember to consult with your veterinarian to create the most appropriate weight loss plan for your pet.

Gastroenteritis/Chronic Small Intestine Enteritis: Management and Benefits of Nutraceuticals

Chronic small intestinal gastroenteritis/enteritis in pets is a common condition that can have a significant impact on the quality of life of animals and their owners.

This pathology is characterized by prolonged inflammation of the small intestine, which can result in persistent symptoms such as diarrhea, vomiting, weight loss, and nutrient malabsorption. In this article, we will address the management of chronic gastroenteritis and highlight the role of nutraceuticals, particularly Dr+Vet’s Digestum, in the treatment of this condition.

Causes and Diagnosis of Chronic Enteritis

Chronic enteritis can be caused by a variety of factors, including bacterial, parasitic or viral infections, inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), food intolerances, and autoimmune diseases. Diagnosis usually requires a combination of clinical history, physical examinations, laboratory tests (hematology, blood chemistry), fecal analysis, imaging tests (x-rays, ultrasounds), and, in some cases, endoscopy with intestinal biopsies and fecal cultures.

Management of Chronic Enteritis

Management of chronic small intestinal enteritis usually involves a combination of dietary modifications, drug therapy, and, increasingly, the use of nutraceuticals. Dietary strategies may include elimination diets, hypoallergenic diets, and high-fiber diets. Drug therapy may include antibiotics, immunosuppressants, and anti-inflammatory agents.

The Role of Nutraceuticals in the Management of Chronic Enteritis

Nutraceuticals have gained popularity as a complementary treatment option due to their safety profile and the potential benefits they offer. Digestum from Dr+Vet by AndersenPets is a nutraceutical specifically formulated to support intestinal health in cases of chronic enteritis. Let’s look at the key components of Digestum and its benefits:

Plasma Proteins

Plasma proteins have been shown to have positive effects on intestinal and general immunity. They work by modulating the immune response, which can help reduce intestinal inflammation and improve mucosal integrity. Plasma proteins can also stimulate cell proliferation and repair of damaged tissues. The concentrations of plasma proteins in Digestum exceed the minimum recommended daily intake, ensuring its effectiveness in the intestine of pets.

Hemp Flour

Hemp flour is rich in omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, which have anti-inflammatory properties. In addition, it contains fiber, which can help regulate intestinal transit and improve stool consistency. Hemp flour is also a good source of plant proteins and antioxidants, which can support the animal’s overall health.

Prebiotics and Probiotics

Prebiotics, such as fructooligosaccharides (FOS) and mannan-oligosaccharides (MOS), are non-digestible fibers that promote the growth of beneficial bacteria in the intestine. Probiotics (enterococci faecium) are live microorganisms that, administered in adequate quantities, confer health benefits to the host. The combination of prebiotics and probiotics in Digestum helps maintain a healthy balance of the intestinal microbiota, which is crucial for good digestion and nutrient absorption.

Aloe vera

Aloe vera is known for its anti-inflammatory and calming properties. In the context of chronic enteritis, aloe vera can help reduce gastric inflammation and promote healing of the intestinal mucosa. In addition, it has immunomodulatory properties that can benefit animals with immune dysfunctions.

Vitamins B9 and B12

Vitamins B9 (folic acid) and B12 (cobalamin) are essential for DNA synthesis and red blood cell production. In animals with chronic enteritis, there may be malabsorption of these vitamins, which may contribute to anemia and general weakness. Supplementation with these vitamins in Digestum helps prevent these deficiencies and maintain the general health of the animal.

Benefits of Digestum in the Management of Chronic Enteritis

Digestum offers a comprehensive formulation that addresses multiple aspects of intestinal health. Its components work synergistically to reduce inflammation, improve the integrity of the intestinal mucosa, and support general immunity. This can result in a reduction in clinical symptoms, improved nutrient absorption, and an overall improvement in the animal’s quality of life.

Summary of Digestum Benefits:

Reduction of intestinal and gastric inflammation: thanks to hemp flour and aloe vera.

Improvement of intestinal and general immunity: through plasma proteins.

Support for the intestinal microbiota: with the combination of prebiotics and probiotics.

Prevention of vitamin deficiencies: with the supplementation of vitamins B9 and B12.

Conclusion

Chronic small intestinal gastroenteritis/enteritis is a complex condition that requires a multidisciplinary approach to management. Nutraceuticals, such as Digestum from Dr+Vet by AndersenPets, offer a valuable and safe option to complement traditional therapeutic strategies. By incorporating natural and scientifically supported ingredients, Digestum can help improve the intestinal health and overall well-being of pets suffering from this debilitating condition.

For veterinarians, it is crucial to stay up to date on the latest research and products available that can improve the care and quality of life of their patients. Digestum represents an effective and accessible tool to address the challenges associated with chronic small intestinal enteritis, providing an additional option in the veterinarian’s therapeutic arsenal.
