Dogs
Today’s dogs hold a special place in our hearts and homes—so owners and veterinarians want to do everything possible to give them not just longer but also higher-quality lives. At Boehringer Ingelheim, that’s our mission too, with products and solutions that protect dogs today and ongoing innovation for a happier, healthier tomorrow.
With better healthcare, life expectancy of dogs has doubled over the past four decades. Today’s dog owners want the same high standard of products and services for their pets that they themselves enjoy. That’s why we support veterinarians in delivering the best solutions across canine health needs, and why we support dog owners with education and insights on their dogs’ care.

Safeguarding dog health
Thanks to advances in veterinary medicine in recent decades, there is so much dog owners and vets can do today to protect canine companions from various health concerns and maximize well-being for longer than ever. Proactive dog care means not just vaccination and parasite protection, but also routine vet exams to detect conditions like diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, and more—and address them as early as possible.
Give dogs the best at every life stage
