Targeted calcium support for safe whelping and postpartum recovery in dogs

Apr 14, 2025

The physiological demands of labor, delivery, and lactation place exceptional stress on the maternal body. One of the most critical nutrients required during this time is calcium—essential for proper muscle contractions, nerve transmission, and metabolic stability. The soon launching Bellylabs Calcium+ Paste is a fast-absorbing, highly bioavailable supplement designed to meet the acute calcium needs of dogs during whelping and the postpartum period, helping reduce the risk of complications and support maternal well-being. Formulated with calcium carbonate, tricalciumcitrate, magnesium citrate, and vitamin D3, this paste delivers rapid and effective nutritional support when timely intervention matters most.

Reliable money saver

We have used Belly Labs for several years now in our program. It has saved us so much time, money and stress on our dogs. Results have been reliable, especially when we wait 30 days or more before testing. One of our girls was pregnant with a singleton, so testing at 28 days resulted in a false negative. At 35 days we had a positive result. Thankful we always keep extra tests on hand, and thankful we found Belly Labs!

Much easier to use, then other brands.

Start it off my journey, trying to save a buck bought the twenty dollar kit off amazon.Looked pretty similar, NOT! So being cheap did not help. PurchaseThis kit got a small discount for being a first time customer. Bonus. Directions were simple, pricked her lip, collected all the blood on the swab. Put the swab in the solution and set a timer. Then, put a couple drops on the test strip set a timer. Negative. We confirmed it a week later with an x ray. In the future, I will definitely consider this brand again.

Very accurate product

I give this test 5 stars. It was 100% correct. We are expecting a new litter end of October.

Just what I needed and wanted!

The Bellylabs test is just what I wanted and needed in a pregnancy test for my Pembroke Welsh Corgi dam. It was easy to use, and the results were available in 10 minutes. Other plus to Bellylabs is that I did not have to take my dam to the veterinarians' office for a sonogram and risk the exposure to sick animals. A+

Love the convince of testing at home!

We love the convince of testing at home instead of taking our girl to the vet and possibly exposing her to germs because that's why people are there is their animals are sick, plus it cost a lot less than an ultrasound

Very easy to use even on a small breed dog. Accurate result as well!!
