Thank for that info. I might try adding a small amount of calcium next time I have a litter teething and the ears are going down.
I was just doing a comparison between the Pet-Cal and the Doc Roy's Healthy Bones.
Here are the ingredients of the Pet-Cal:

My bottle of Doc Roy's Healthy Bones says it is formulated with a proprietary, highly palatable roast beef and liver flavor base. It does not mention soy flour like the Pet Cal does. My girls really like the Doc Roy's Healthy Bones.
I give my females nursing females 1/2 tablet twice a day.
