His food has taurine. So why can he still run low? Every meal uses some of it to digest, and age makes it harder to replace. One scoop with his meals refills what leaks, at the dose for his weight. More tomorrows together.

Dave P
I never expected to notice such a big difference in my dog at his age. Max had started slowing down, especially on walks, and he wasn't nearly as playful as he used to be. After adding Gleepaw to his routine, I started noticing little changes over time. He became more eager to go outside, played with his toys again, and seemed much more like his old self. Now, at 11, he still follows me around the house and gets excited when it's time for his evening walk. I'm just happy to see him enjoying his days again.
Back to playing
Brighter and more playful
That happy little personalityMy Golden Retriever, Cooper, started slowing down around his 9th birthday. He still wanted to play, but he would tire much faster and spend most of the day resting. We added the taurine powder to his daily routine and, little by little, he seemed more interested in playing and going on walks again. Now at 11, he still brings me his favorite toy every morning. Seeing that spark come back has honestly meant so much to us.
Bella is a 10-year-old Labrador who has always been incredibly active, so watching her become less energetic was difficult. We wanted to support her as she got older without making things complicated. The powder became part of her daily routine because she actually enjoys it with her food. She seems brighter, more playful, and still gets excited whenever she sees the leash come out. For us, it's all about helping her enjoy her senior years.
Our little Molly turned 12 this year, and I knew we needed to start paying more attention to her overall wellness. She had become much more of a couch dog and wasn't as enthusiastic about her usual walks. We started adding this to her food every day, and over time we noticed she seemed more engaged and eager to move around. She's still a senior girl, but she has that happy little personality again, and that's exactly what we wanted.

WHY TAURINE MATTERS
Taurine is found in high amounts in his heart, eyes, muscles and brain. When levels drop, it happens quietly, often long before you notice anything.
Taurine is the most abundant free amino acid in the heart muscle and helps regulate the calcium behind every beat. In some dogs, low taurine has been linked to changes in heart muscle.
The retina holds one of the highest concentrations of taurine in the body. It supports the very cells he sees your face with.
Taurine helps regulate the immune response and keep everyday inflammation in check.
As one of the body's key antioxidants, taurine helps protect cells from the daily wear that comes with age.

THE SIGNS OWNERS CALL “JUST OLD AGE”
You notice it a little more every month. You tell yourself it's normal. But you lie awake wondering how much time you have left.
That dry honk at 2 AM that wakes you up and keeps you listening.
He stops halfway and looks back at you, like he's asking to go home.
Less play, more naps. Less of the dog you know.
A grey muzzle, and eyes that don't follow you like they used to.
The stairs used to be nothing. Now he waits for you at the bottom.
If you notice any of these signs, talk to your vet.
HE’S 13.
You don’t want to watch him struggle.
You don’t want to wonder “did I do enough?”
You just want more time with your baby.
And the one after that.
At the door when you come home.
Quiet nights, for both of you.
THE TAURINE LEAK
His food has taurine. The problem happens after the bowl: every meal costs him a little, and some of it never comes back. We call it the taurine leak.
Morning
Full tank
After breakfast
Used to digest
After dinner
A little more lost
Gut bacteria
Break some down
+ One scoop
Refilled with meals
Illustration of the idea, not a measurement.
Dogs rely almost entirely on taurine to make bile, the fluid that digests fat. Unlike us, they can’t easily swap in another amino acid.
Bile is recycled, but a little is lost after every meal, and more with high-fiber food.
Bacteria in the gut break down part of that taurine before it can be reused.
That’s why a well-fed dog can still run low. You don’t need to become a nutritionist. Refill what leaks, when it leaks: one scoop with his meals.
Based on published veterinary research on bile acids and taurine in dogs.
WHY IT GETS HARDER AFTER 7
After a certain age, three things squeeze his taurine at the same time.
01 · FEWER BUILDING BLOCKS
Many older dogs eat less, so they get less of the two amino acids (methionine and cysteine) they build taurine from.
02 · A SLOWER FACTORY
The enzymes that make taurine are most active in young dogs and slow down with age. In the 2024 CURE study, the dogs below normal were older on average.
03 · MORE LEAKING
“Senior” and “light” foods are often higher in fiber, and more fiber means more taurine lost after meals.
One daily gesture for all three. Changing his food is your vet’s call: Gleepaw works alongside his vet’s plan.
TAURINE, EXPLAINED
Meet taurine: an amino acid found in your dog’s heart, eyes and muscles.
Inside the heart: taurine helps regulate the calcium behind each beat.
Why levels can drop: age, breed and diet.
The eyes, immunity and every cell.
One scoop a day, alongside your vet’s plan.
DOSED BY WEIGHT, GIVEN WITH MEALS
Many taurine powders give every dog the same scoop. That’s not a dose, that’s a guess. We dose taurine by weight and give it with meals.
01
Find his weight in the chart below. It takes 5 seconds.
02
Onto his food. Split between breakfast and dinner if you can.
03
The leak happens at every meal, so we refill with his meals.
Some research suggests that larger dogs make less taurine for their size than small dogs, and may lose more through digestion. That’s why Labs, Goldens and Newfies get more scoops.
On heart medication or a special diet? Always follow your vet’s plan, and check with your vet before adding Gleepaw.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Taurine works with time, not overnight. Here’s what the first three months look like.
One tasteless scoop with his meals. No pill to hide in cheese, no fight.
Taurine with every meal helps refill what leaks out after digestion.
His walks, his naps, his mood, the way he greets you. Many owners give it 8 to 12 weeks before judging.
Love what you see? Keep going. Not for you? Full refund, and you keep the jar.

Taurine is an amino acid that plays a role in heart, eye, muscle and immune function. Gleepaw is a simple daily way to top up the taurine your dog's diet may be missing, and many owners add it as part of a long-term wellness routine.
Many dog foods contain some taurine, but the amount can vary and cooking and processing can reduce it. Gleepaw adds a consistent, measured amount on top of what your dog already gets from meals.
Gleepaw is made with senior and adult dogs in mind. If you have a puppy, please check with your vet before adding any new supplement to their routine.
Gleepaw is a fine, tasteless powder that mixes easily into wet or dry food. Most dogs don't notice it. If yours is picky, start with a small amount and build up to the full scoop over a few days.
One tub lasts about 60 days for dogs up to 25 lbs, 30 days for dogs between 26 and 75 lbs, and 20 days for dogs 76 lbs and over, when you follow the Daily Scoop Guide.
Gleepaw is a nutritional supplement and is not a treatment for any condition. If your dog has been diagnosed with DCM or any heart condition, follow your vet's plan and ask them before adding Gleepaw.
Research on taurine and heart health has often focused on breeds such as Golden Retrievers, Cocker Spaniels and Newfoundlands. If your dog is one of them, talk to your vet about daily taurine support.
Taurine is generally well tolerated, but every dog is different. If your dog takes medication or other supplements, or has a health condition, check with your vet first.
Every dog is different. Many owners notice changes in energy and enthusiasm on walks within a few weeks of daily use. Consistency matters most, so we recommend giving Gleepaw every day for at least 90 days.
90-DAY GUARANTEE
One scoop with his meals. 90 days to decide. Skip, pause or cancel anytime.
