Who the Yorkshire Terrier is

The Yorkshire Terrier is one of the smallest dog breeds, typically 2 to 3.2 kg as an adult. Yorkies are often described as bold, lively and bigger in personality than in body. With a dog this small, owners commonly ask about tiny doses and about teeth and weight, so accurate measuring matters.

What Yorkie owners often ask about age

Puppy: PAWER is not for puppies under one year. Ask your vet.
Adult: small dogs often live long lives, and owners ask about a steady daily routine.
Senior: many Yorkies are active into later years. Owners ask about everyday comfort, and your vet can check how your dog is doing.

How the daily amount works

PAWER Daily is a liquid supplement for dogs, sold as complementary feed. It is not a medicine. The amount follows body weight: 1.7 ml per 10 kg per day. The syringe is marked in ml, so you read the dose straight off the barrel.

For Yorkshire Terrier, that works out like this:

2 kg: 0.34 ml per day
3 kg: 0.51 ml per day

Your dog is probably between those or near them. Use the dose finder for an exact figure, or take the quiz.

What is in it

Eight ingredients: NMN, PQQ, CoQ10 (PureSorb Q40), methylfolate, fisetin, isoquercetin, inulin and vitamin B12. Most of the research on them was done in people and lab animals. PAWER itself has not been studied, and we do not claim it has.

Honest limits

PAWER is a daily routine, not a fix. Nobody can promise results, and what an owner notices will differ from dog to dog. It does not treat, cure or prevent any disease. Food, exercise, sleep and regular vet visits matter far more than any supplement.

When to ask your vet first

Speak to your vet before starting if your dog:

takes any medication
has a health condition
is pregnant or nursing
or if you are simply unsure

PAWER is not for puppies under one year. Ask your vet. It is also only for dogs. Never give it to a cat or any other animal, because some compounds that suit dogs are not suitable for other species.

Questions people ask

What dose does a Yorkshire Terrier get?

The dose follows weight: 1.7 ml per 10 kg per day. A 2 kg Yorkie gets 0.34 ml and a 3 kg dog gets 0.51 ml. These are very small amounts, so read the syringe carefully.

How do I measure such a small amount?

The syringe is marked in ml. Draw up the figure from the dose finder and check it at eye level. If you find it hard to measure so little, ask your vet or pharmacist to show you.

My Yorkie weighs under 2 kg. Is it suitable?

Very small dogs deserve extra care. Ask your vet first, since the dose would be very small and your vet knows your dog's health and weight.

Is a Yorkie puppy suitable?

No. PAWER is not for puppies under one year. Tiny breeds can be sensitive when young, so ask your vet what is right for your dog.
