Taken from New Zealand Sheep Wool, keraGEN-IV® is a cutting-edge, keratin-based nutrient included to support healthy skin and a glossy coat in dogs.
It works synergistically to boost collagen production, which strengthens the dermal-epidermal junction, improving skin structure and anchoring hair follicles. This advanced formula helps reduce shedding, soothe irritated skin, and promote a vibrant, shiny coat.
The Benefits
A Healthier, Shinier and Comfortable Coat
Glossy Coat
A glossy and luscious coat is one of the key indicators of a dog's nutritional levels.
keraGEN-IV® enhances coat quality by targeting the roots of hair growth, fortifying follicles, and boosting collagen production. With its unique ability to strengthen hair and reduce shedding, keraGEN-IV® helps your dog achieve a thicker, shinier coat that’s protected from environmental stressors.

Reduces excessive shedding, keeping your home cleaner
Works by improving hair follicle anchoring and strengthening the connection between the skin and coat.

Skin Health
Approximately 25-30% of veterinary visits for dogs are due to skin issues, including allergies, infections, and irritations.
keraGEN-IV® supports skin health by strengthening its structure, enhancing hydration, and promoting faster healing. It helps to reduce irritation and inflammation by boosting the skin’s natural antioxidant defences, soothing common issues like itching and redness.

Improved Hydration and Elasticity
By strengthening the dermal-epidermal junction, keraGEN-IV® reduces moisture loss, helping to maintain hydration.
-
Protection Against Free Radicals
Its antioxidant properties protect skin cells from oxidative damage, helping to prevent dullness and improve overall skin health.
Nail Support
As our dogs explore the world, their nails endure constant wear and tear. However, keratin provides the essential building blocks to strengthen nails, ensuring durability and comfort for every step.
keraGEN-IV® is excellent for nails because it provides a rich source of keratin, the protein essential for nail strength and growth. With its high cystine content, it supports the production of durable, healthy nails while reducing brittleness and preventing cracks or splits. Additionally, keraGEN-IV® promotes proper amino acid balance, aiding in faster nail repair and maintaining overall nail health.
