Nectar Calm + Relax is an easy-to-use, vet-formulated, human-grade supplement designed to help support a healthy nervous system in dogs. Made in Australia with organic Ashwagandha, L-Tryptophan and other calming nutrients and amino acids.
Life can be stressful for our pups too - separation anxiety, thunderstorms, loud noises, car trips, interacting with other dogs (or cats), and the odd visit to the vet... it's not that easy to be a pup after all.
Thankfully, you can help your pup manage their stress and anxiety in a natural way.

We’ve hand-picked the highest quality ingredients that deliver real health benefits for your pup. And did we mention that many of them are also organic, like our Victorian flaxseed and our Tasmanian Wakame Seaweed? Yummo!
Ashwagandha KSM-66®: A unique, organic and clinically-trialled Ashwagandha extract, traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine to reduce stress and enhance overall wellbeing.
L-Tryptophan: A natural amino acid involved in the production of the hormone serotonin and which has been shown to help reduce stress.

The Nectar Difference
Evidence-based ingredients
Many dog supplement brands either have no research at all, or use ingredients at non-specific (we call this "pixie dust") dosage. Not us.
The Nectar range contains hero ingredients that have been clinically-trialled for their health enhancing benefits. And the best part? These ingredients are backed by top tier research conducted in dogs.
At Nectar, we pay great attention to detail. We hand-pick every ingredient for every formula to make sure they have a real purpose for dogs (no fillers here). We also include our ingredients at the exact dose that is shown to work for our furry friends.
Tested on humans, approved by dogs
We became "guinea pigs" and loved every minute of it. All of our ingredients are human-grade, which means they're the same quality as the ingredients we would consume ourselves.
Why would our pups deserve lower quality ingredients and standards for their health supplements?
Nectar is made in a human-grade GMP food facility that’s fully HACCP & ACO certified, right here in Australia.
P.S. We've personally tried all five Nectars - the Aussie BBQ sausage flavour is seriously legit.
The twist? Nectar is drinkable too
Yes, Nectar is delicious as a food topper. But wait, there is more...
Did you know that hydration isn’t just measured by how much water you drink? Being hydrated also involves getting the right electrolytes.
Nectar has been uniquely formulated to also be dissolved in water and calibrated to be isotonic, which means that:
- Our pups can absorb it faster and more easily than chewable or pill supplements
- Our furry friends will have the right electrolytes to receive a rapid hydration boost
A lower carbon pawprint
We know that dogs aren’t veggos. But since meat production contributes to climate change (did you know that globally, pet food production generates over 100 million tonnes of carbon dioxide every year?) it's always been important to us to minimise our impact on the environment.
So since most of our pups already get the animal proteins they need from their food bowls, why not give them plant-based supplements? Using non meat-based products is more sustainable and plants have incredible healing powers.
From our formulations to our packaging (no plastic scoops here), we're doing all we can to protect the planet that we and our pups are lucky to call home.
About the Company
With Nectar, our mission is to make it easy for pet parents to give their dogs their healthiest and best lives.
When we decided to create Nectar of the Dogs™, we simply wanted to do better for our own pup, Willow.
Unpalatable capsules and tablets, products full of fillers or with ingredients at unevidenced dosages were just not good enough anymore.
So our little team of natural health experts, integrative vets, food technologists and doggo Mums and Dads embarked on a journey to create the most efficacious and delicious dog supplements the world has ever seen.
It's our strong belief that "healthy" doesn't have to be difficult or boring for pet parents. It's in Nectar's DNA to marry the fun and playful with quality and scientific rigour.
Like you, we’re (more than) a bit obsessed with our pups. They’re more than pets to us – they’re BFF and family all rolled into one - and we pride ourselves on doing everything we can to keep them healthy and happy.
We wanted a way to support our pups’ wellbeing while also treating them to a fun experience. So we went on a quest to create a range of the cleanest, most effective, plant-based supplements delivered on food or in a delicious liquid format. It was also important to us that these supplements were made right here in Australia in a human-grade manufacturing facility. It was then that Nectar of the Dogs™ was born.
What a funny brand name, you say? Really though, there was no better way to encapsulate it (we also don't mind a good old dog pun).
In ancient Greek mythology, Nectar was the food or drink of the Greek gods, giving longevity or immortality to whomever consumed it. Literally, it's a combination of “Nek” (death) and “Tar” (overcoming). Today, “Nectar of the Gods” is a common phrase used to describe a drink that tastes extremely good.
Formulating, developing and producing Nectar of the Dogs™ was no easy task.
We had to do something that hadn't been done before and it took the best natural health experts, veterinarians and food technologists in Australia as well as the most passionate pet parents to deliver on this vision - that's about 50 years of expertise in each Nectar tin.
And let's not forget our in-house Chief Tasting Officer Willow who made sure that every Nectar is heckin' delish.
