Hope for Senior Dogs — Backed by Nature & Evidence
Having a dog live into their senior years is one of life’s greatest blessings. Not all dogs get this opportunity—too many are lost too soon. But for the ones who do live well into their teens, age eventually catches up. Organs begin to degrade, mobility issues set in, cancer risk climbs—and sometimes, most heartbreakingly, the body stays strong but the mind begins to fade. That can be so hard to watch, and it often leaves us feeling helpless because honestly, nobody’s talking about it.
Just as humans face Alzheimer’s and dementia, dogs can develop Canine Cognitive Decline (CCD). It’s devastating. A dog who once knew every corner of their home may start pacing through the night, staring at walls, or getting stuck in corners. They may forget familiar routines or lose the sparkle in their eyes that once felt so connected to you.
That’s why the release of The Senior Dog Study matters. MycoDog—the sister company of CBD Dog Health—launched the first caregiver-led, virtual study exploring how functional mushrooms and adaptogens may support senior dogs’ quality of life.
The study focused on Clarity®, MycoDog’s mushroom and adaptogen blend, and the results were remarkable:
81% of dogs showed either a stabilization or improvement in their cognitive scores
The biggest benefits were seen in earlier-stage senior dogs
No negative side effects were reported
More than 8 out of 10 senior dogs improved—or at least stopped declining—with a formula from nature. That’s real hope, backed by nature and evidence.
The Powerhouse Ingredients in Clarity
The ingredients in Clarity are a blend of natural adaptogens and mushroom extracts from wild-harvested and naturally cultivated mushrooms, formulated to support cognitive function, emotional balance, and nervous system health in dogs.
Clarity is made with a spagyric dual extraction of fruiting body and stems and a proprietary blend of:
Lion’s Mane
Reishi
Cordyceps
Bacopa Monnieri
Ashwagandha
Inactive ingredients: Distilled Water, Organic Vegetable Glycerin USP.
These carefully chosen ingredients work synergistically to support the nervous system and promote overall clarity in senior dogs—without pharmaceuticals and without side effects. Just real ingredients with real results. Supporting our animals should be that simple—and it can be.
Why Quality and Sourcing Matter
Not all mushroom products are created equal. Mushrooms are bio-accumulators, which means they naturally absorb elements from their environment—including toxins like pesticides, herbicides, or pollutants in the air and soil. If mushrooms are grown in the wrong place, they can do more harm than good.
That’s why sourcing matters so much. MycoDog’s tinctures are made with mushrooms that are wild-harvested or cultivated outdoors in their natural environment—never grown on grains or fillers. They prioritize sourcing from the forests of the Pacific Northwest, where the air and soil remain relatively untouched by heavy industry. This ensures that every tincture is as clean, pure, and safe as possible for your dog.
Real-Life Results I’ve Seen
I’ve also seen Clarity work in real life. Pet parents I work with say their dogs stopped circling, stopped pacing at night, and stopped getting trapped under beds or in corners. They’re more present, more comfortable, and more connected. Dogs don’t fake it—so when you see improvements and results, that’s a real testament!
Because supporting our dogs through aging isn’t just about adding years to their lives—it’s about adding life to their years, and supporting the whole dog: mind, body, and soul.

I’m proud to carry Clarity, and it will also be available in my online store when it launches soon. If your dog is showing signs of cognitive decline, I highly recommend giving it a try. This formula has already given so many senior dogs more good days, and I’d love to help you see the difference it can make for yours.
