Just like humans, companion animals also require consistent oral hygiene management. In the case of dogs and cats, tartar forms more quickly than in humans, making them more susceptible to oral diseases such as periodontitis or stomatitis. Since it takes about 24 hours for dental plaque to turn into tartar, it is necessary to brush their teeth at least once a day.

Canident is a veterinary medicinal toothpaste exclusively for companion animals. It contains protein-degrading enzymes such as bromelain, dextranase, and lysozyme, which help maintain oral cleanliness and break down bacteria and plaque. It also contains more than 20 types of natural extracts, including propolis and Spirulina platensis, for gum health and bad breath reduction. The product can be evenly applied between teeth using a finger even without a toothbrush, and its excellent adhesion inside the mouth makes it easy to use for pets that have difficulty with brushing. It is available in chicken and sweet potato flavors, which are highly preferred by pets, reducing the likelihood of refusal.

The skin of companion animals also needs to be managed to prevent dryness. The skin of dogs and cats is about one-third the thickness of human skin, leading to rapid moisture loss and frequent skin diseases. Due to dryness, pets may repeatedly scratch, lick, or chew themselves, so careful moisturizing care is required.

Caniskin, a moisturizing cream exclusively for pets, contains 2% high concentrations of Centella asiatica extract and madecassoside, making it effective for moisturizing and soothing the skin. The product includes more than 30 types of natural ingredients that help moisturize pet skin and relieve cracked paw pads. Its non-sticky cream formula is absorbed without leaving residue, and the tube-type container prevents dust, fur, and other contaminants from sticking, allowing for hygienic use. To use, clean the area to be treated with a wet towel or pet-specific wet tissue, then gently apply an appropriate amount of cream to dry areas of the skin or face.

A Dongkook Pharmaceutical representative stated, "Dongkook Pharmaceutical is planning and launching a variety of products exclusively for companion animals to help them live healthier and more comfortable lives," adding, "The interest and proper care habits of pet owners are the first step in ensuring the lifelong health of their pets."
