Veterinarian Recommended

The Only MCT Oil for Dogs Developed by Veterinarians

Golden Retriever Dog
  • As a practicing veterinarian with 25 years of experience, I couldn't find an MCT oil to earn my endorsement. So our veterinary team developed Brain Boost especially for dogs.

    It's not just fuel for your dog's mind and body, it's the hope of better days ahead.

    Julie Buzby, DVM, CVA, CAVCA

Pure and Simple Ingredients with Purpose

Brain Boost
    Dr. Buzby's ToeGrips for Dogs
  • Dr. Buzby’s Brain Boost

    Is exclusively made from 100% organic coconut oil and intentionally contains only C8 and C10.

  • Coconut Oil

    Is an excellent source of medium-chain triglycerides including C8 and C10.

  • Caprylic Acid (C8)

    Provides unique brain energy to help support cognitive function.

  • Capric Acid (C10)

    Helps protect the brain from inflammatory processes and cell damage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do dogs like the taste of Dr. Buzby’s Brain Boost?

Yes! We understand if you are adding a supplement to your dog’s food, it’s very important that your dog will eat it. The good news is that a study performed in 2022 demonstrated that a liquid MCT oil containing a combination of caprylic acid (C8) and capric acid (C10) was well-received and readily accepted by dogs. That’s one of many reasons Brain Boost is specifically formulated with C8 and C10. Plus, we offer a 30-day money-back guarantee so you can try Brain Boost with confidence.

How long after starting Dr. Buzby’s Brain Boost until I see results?

Most often, Brain Boost works within 30-90 days. In some cases, dogs have shown improvement in as little as 2 weeks after starting MCT oil supplementation.

What results can I expect from Dr. Buzby’s Brain Boost?

MCT oil has been shown to help regulate normal sleep-wake cycles, may lessen the severity of anxiety-related behaviors and disorientation, and may help improve memory, learning, and activity levels.

Why does Brain Boost contain only C8 and C10 medium-chain triglycerides?

These two specific MCTs have tremendous potential health benefits for dogs. Caprylic acid (C8) provides an essential alternative source of fuel for the brain when it is metabolized into ketones. Ketones are easier for the body to break down than glucose, which is valuable since glucose metabolism in the brain slows down as dogs age. Capric acid (C10) provides energy to cells and can help boost immunity. As a rule, the shorter the carbon chain, the easier it is for the body to process.

Is Dr. Buzby’s MCT oil supplement veterinarian recommended?

Yes, Dr. Buzby’s Brain Boost is not only recommended by veterinarians, it was developed by veterinarians. When Dr. Julie Buzby couldn’t find an MCT oil to earn her endorsement, she organized a team of veterinarians to develop Brain Boost. Our premium supplement formulated especially for dogs is USDA-certified organic, ethically and sustainably sourced, and human grade. It’s not just fuel for your dog’s mind and body, it’s the hope of better days ahead. Furthermore, MCTs are recommended for senior dogs in the American Animal Hospital Association’s 2023 Senior Care Guidelines.

Great product

Our Mojo is almost 14 years old and was losing cognitive function. With the introduction of the MCT oil, he's back to the way he was before, alert and happy.

Back to chasing squirrels in the yard again

Molly has epilepsy and it has been so hard to see her slow down due to the anti seizure meds. I read about Dr Buzby’s Brain Boost and figured it was worth a try. As we titrated up to the full dose, we noticed our sweet girl seemed more like herself, her younger happier self! Her energy level seems back to normal and she actually wants to play with her puppy brother again. Most important, her seizure activity seems less when she is in bed with me, we don’t feel them at night. It is a miracle supplement. We have not had to change her seizure medicine dose, before we started Dr Buzby’s brain boost I thought we were going to need to increase her meds or have to add a second drug. Thank you Dr Buzby!!!

Thanks to Brain Boost

Our 13 year old Shih Tzu Layla, was beginning to spend most of her daytime sleeping. At night she would wander the house, where as her normal routine was sleeping in her little bed we kept in our bedroom. I would get up in the night looking for her, and she might be in the laundry room, sleeping in front of the washing machine. She just wandered the night. I took her to our Veterinarian to see if she might be showing symptoms of an illness. He suggested we try Dr. Buzby's Brain Boost. We started small doses working up to the correct dose for a 15 lb girl. Within 3-4 weeks she was getting back into her normal sleeping pattern of sleeping in her bed in our room. She also was more active in the daytime. We just ordered her 2nd bottle and she will continue with it. Thank you Dr. Buzby!!

Thank you so much for sharing your dog's happy story (and adorable picture) with us! Please do me a huge favor and thank your veterinarian for the recommendation! I am so thrilled that something this safe and simple can have this big of an impact for my own senior dog patients and dogs like yours! Thank you again for taking the time to let us know.
Sending much love,
Dr. Julie Buzby

RUGBY
Sparkling Effervescence

Well I am a nutritionist and my European GR’s are my kidz and I feed raw with human supplements of Tumeric / zinc / ginger and lysine so we have hard wood floors in a new home and the nails clicking was driving me bonkers more than zero instability so as I ordered the toe grips and noticed the BRAIN BOOST.
Not many know good dog nutrition esp MOST VETS & DOG MFG …..but GOD said to try this for my awesome 17yr old RUGBY. I thgt I would not notice any difference but he actually is happier and
literally “effervesses” more 24/7. It like he gets his age & life yet appreciates & cherishes every moment bc now he
turns every moment into a sparkle.
Not kidding. He always gets us but now he literally sparkles 24/7 basking us in more of his love and vice versa. 💖✨💖

This really works and is amazing

My now 15 yo toy poodles P-Nut and Joey have been taking this formula since back when it was called NeuroPro and I’ll never take them off of it. P-Nut started having seizures almost 2 years ago, one a week for 3 weeks until I found this supplement. Once he was on it, he’s never had another seizure again. This Brain Boost really works and I have seen the results. His eyes are still bright and alert and while he does have other health issues, mental decline is not one of them. Joey still acts like a puppy sometimes and just yesterday went for a long hike! Highly recommend this product, it’s amazing!

Flossie’s Mum
Cannot believe this is working

Flossie is almost 18 with clear signs of doggie dementia. Her eyesight is poor and while she can potty outside, the cues she now gives are minimal, at best, which makes it a full time job to toilet her so she’s in a diaper inside, just in case. She enjoys doing treat puzzles but in the last few months, her ability to find the treats had waned. Since starting this 3.5 weeks ago, she is much more alert, is exploring more of the house again and is almost always dry when I go to take her outside. It’s definitely improving her cognition and I’m amazed. She also takes CBD oil which the vet recommended for the anxiety of dementia, but this has made a marked improvement and I’m amazed.

16 year old is playing again!

Violet is a 16 year old hound/retriever mix. She had begun keeping to herself and seemed depressed as she stared off in a daze, just laying on her dog bed most of the day. She had regained strength in her back legs with Dr Buzby’s Encore Mobility, so we thought we would give Brain Boost a try too. After 3 weeks adding Brain Boost to her meals, Violet is more focused and present. She is more energetic and grabs her toys to play several times throughout the day. Violet even started a new bark-and-chase game to play with her sister while they wait for meals. She regained confidence to use the ramp again by herself to climb up on the couch and cuddle with us. It’s so beautiful to see the energy back in her eyes, and to have her engaging more with all of us. We are grateful for Brain Boost helping our girl get her spark back.

Patient improved and client is thrilled

This sweet old lady is a minimum of 12. She was just in for the 1st time since starting Brain Boost. Dad says she's no longer barking into space and is sleeping better. He's so impressed he called his daughter and told her to put her 14 year old dog on it. We're so happy for both Jojo and her wonderful family that her quality of life at home is better with Brain Boost!

Fountain of youth

Samantha is acting so much younger and has a bounce to her step. Staring off into space has become more infrequent and her temperament is much sweeter.
She still gets up twice a night wanting food even though she has had a full complement during the day. If we could only find something to make her sleep at night everything would be great!

So far so good!

My husband and I were just discussing brain boost this morning. My 14.5 year old man has been on it for a little over a month. He no longer stares into space for long periods of time. More impressively, he no longer pees in the house, which was a nightly occurrence (knock on wood) and we don't remember the last time we saw him eating his favorite outdoor snack 💩🤮

So glad for this product

Bilbo, our 14 3/4 year old Springer Spaniel, has been on Brain Boost for 5 weeks now, and I've waited to report on him in order to allow the full 30 trial period. About a year ago, he started showing signs of Canine Cognitive Dysfuntion (CCD), and when we recognized this, we consulted a friend whose dog was diagnosed with that and given Seligilene that was helping him. Through our vet, we were able to get that prescribed, and it was definitely helping his brain function. The trouble was, as a stimulant, it was making him anxious and panicked at times. Another drug he's been on for years (Proin to prevent incontinence) also has that effect, so over the past few months, he's has several all night panic attacks where I had to stay with him to try to keep him calm. We've used Full Spectrum Hemp Extract CBD400 for quite a while at night to help him sleep longer, but that wasn't touching his anxiety. So, after a lot of prayer and online searches for relief from that, I was made aware of your Brain Boost and ordered it. I cleared using it with my vet, and within the first week I was seeing a calming effect as we increased to the full dose over the first 2 weeks. It was 'up and down' for a while with the main effect being the 'calming' that was allowing him to sleep a LOT (possibly because of the overactivity of the other meds for 6 months prior?). Anyway, he's been up to the full dose for 2 weeks, and despite one episode when he wouldn't eat at all for a day (we thought he must be a 'goner' and even scheduled an appt. to put him down), he's been looking more aware of people and things around him (wagging his tail, etc.). He still sleeps most of the day and night (with a precautionary diaper ;-), but when awake is calm, aware of needing to hold his bladder, and even able to lay down (or stay down when his legs give out) unlike the previous months without Brain Boost. I thank the Lord for making me aware of it, and encourage others who may be wondering if it's working at all to give it the full 30 day trial. Thank you for caring enough to research and develop this product. I've already ordered more =)!

Fantastic results!

When I was home on fmla I noticed my 11yr old lab mix was starting to bark and startle at things he never used to. Started the Brain Boost and he's acting like he's 5 again and has more pep in his step! Highly recommend!

Already Seeing Improvement

Our 14 1/2 year old Golden/Lab mix, Sundance, recently began to show signs of aging. She would awake in the middle of the night and ‘dig” in her bed. She seemed confused, panting and pacing until she finally settled again. She also seemed to forget some of the trick cues she knows. Disconcerting for a dog that earned her Trick Dog Champion title. And in general, processed things more slowly.

We just finished the first bottle of Brain Boost, gradually increasing the dosage over a couple of weeks, and we are seeing improvements. She liked the taste. There were no digestive side effects. And, she is now sleeping comfortably through the night. Her interest in training and offering behaviors is back. My husband bought her a new food puzzle toy, and she mastered that in a night :-)

While nothing will return her to the dog she was at 5 years old, she does seem to have more energy for walks and play, and now comes to find me if she hears a training session in progress with our other dog. It’s a joy to see that she still has her “spark”. So, we’ve started a subscription. Worth every penny.

Life changing

My 15 year old dog was really struggling badly with cognitive dysfunction. I had tried a plethora of medications and supplements, which had all stopped working. I was getting close to considering euthanasia, as it was making him feel sick. He would stay up all night and was getting really bad anxiety, which he never suffered from before. My colleague gave me some brain boost to try. I literally stopped everything (he was on 5-6 different things) and started brain boost. Within a week, he was feeling more like himself! As an added bonus, it helped with arthritis. He did zoomies, which he hadn’t done in over 2 years. (Video below) He’s got a new zest for life and I couldn’t be happier.

I love the change I see in her

She’s a 13 yr old pem and she’s been having some mobility issues and I had paid more attention to that at first. I then noticed she was hiding and just not as excited about seeing people or coming to work with me anymore. The brain boost has made such a difference! She’s back to greeting her favorite people in the office. She’s out of her crate more at home.

I absolutely plan to reorder. I love the change I see in her.

I’m now a believer!!

I originally bought this product at a veterinary conference, where my friend was working the booth. I did not expect this to actually work at all. My dog is a 13-year-old Pomeranian, she is on this twice a day as recommended for almost 6 weeks. Then we went out of town and had a pet sitter come. We forgot to instruct him to give the brain boost with her food. When we returned home, my little girl was not the same mentally as she was before. I can personally say that the response and my dog was unexpected and is very noticeable. She is going to stay on this the rest of her life. As a veterinarian, I will keep this product as a recommendation for all my clients who have senior dogs. Thank you!

Thank you for Brain Boost!

My GSD will be 14 in August and suffered a neurological episode last June following his treatment of Librela coupled with Simparica Trio. My vet didn't expect him to make it. Thankfully I found herbs to assist him in recovery from the Pet Health and Nutrition Center. Fast forward to Brain Boost. My sweet Shiloh seemed distant and more often than not he chose to rest in my/his bedroom throughout the day rather than join me in other parts of the house. Since taking Brain Boost he is now more responsive and often chooses to be where I am! I am waiting for my 2nd order and will progress to the 3 teaspoons AM and PM.

I believe it is beneficial to support my dog in all ways that I am able. By including Brain Boost in his "well being" support we are both benefiting. Shiloh is more at peace in his aging and I, on the other hand, am beyond grateful to know he is still choosing to connect with me.

Gracie's mom
Seems to be helping my 16 year old girl!

My American Eskimo dog, Gracie, just turned 16 and has been showing signs of cognitive decline. I started her and 13-year-old Toby, my Pekingese mix, on this supplement and it's going really well so far. It hasn't upset their stomachs at all and they don't even notice it in their food. My 16-year-old girl is acting less confused and seems to be less anxious too. Hopefully soon she will be able to do puzzles again. They used to be her favorite but lately she seems to have forgotten how to do them.

My little old curmudgeon has found his second wind with Brain Boost

I have a 13.5-year-old terrier mix, Newman, who has been on a gradual decline mentally and physically over the past couple of years. He stopped playing with our younger dogs and would even snap at them if they tried to engage with him. He regularly refused to eat his food and spent his days either pacing the house or sleeping. With his eyesight and hearing declining, Newman had not been a happy little guy for quite a while.

We started slowly adding Brain Boost to Newman's diet about three weeks ago since he has a history of a sensitive tummy. I've seen no indication that he's had an upset tummy, no diarrhea, nothing. The Brain Boost oil does not have an odor, and while I think Newman doesn't actually taste it in his kibble, he seems to know something's different with mealtimes.

Since introducing Brain Boost, Newman has really come out of his shell. He runs to his crate for his meals (circling down the hall like he did when he was younger) and eats without hesitation, and I saw him get the zoomies outside with our Great Dane the other day!! I'm thrilled to see him enjoying life again - he even asks to go for walks now! (see his sassy little swagger in the attached photo)

Brain Boost will definitely be part of Newman's mealtime routine for the rest of his days with us!
Thank you!!
