Ocu-GLO® by Animal Necessity®, the Official Eye Supplement of the USPCA, to Provide FREE EYE EXAMS for Working K9s

Animal Necessity® was proud to attend HITS K9 2026 in Phoenix, Arizona, connecting with more than 300 police officers, K9 handlers, trainers, and members of the working K9 community. Representing Animal Necessity® were Ariela Simbana, Digital Public Relations Specialist; Melinda Harrington, Social Media Manager; Brett Raymer, Brand Ambassador; and Morgan King, Account Executive.

One conversation stood out. When asked if their K9s were taking supplements, many handlers said no, while others mentioned glucosamine, commonly used to support joint health. Animal Necessity® offers Joint Guard Vet® to support joint health and mobility, but we followed with another important question: “What are you doing to support your K9’s eyes?” The response was often “nothing,” or a pause to consider the question.

For a working K9, vision is essential to the job. Searching, tracking, detecting, navigating challenging environments, and responding alongside a handler all rely on vision. These conversations gave us the opportunity to introduce Ocu-GLO®, the #1 Veterinary Ophthalmologist Recommended Vision Supplement, and raised awareness about proactive eye health for working K9s.
