The health and wellness of your fur-kiddos is always a top priority. At NHV, we completely agree, and we are dedicated to supporting your little ones. Understanding common health issues is an important step in ensuring your little ones stay healthy and happy, and that’s why it’s essential to recognize the signs of adrenal gland disorders, such as Addison’s disease and Cushing’s disease in pets. These two diseases mainly affect our canine companions, but they may also affect cats, although not as commonly.
The Adrenal Glands
The adrenal glands are located in front of the kidneys
The adrenal glands are located in front of the kidneys, and they produce hormones such as cortisol, aldosterone, and adrenaline. These hormones are important as they play a role in balancing electrolytes and stress. When the adrenal glands don’t produce and regulate hormones as they normally should, it can cause serious health implications for your fur-baby.
What is Cushing’s
Cushing’s disease, also known as hyperadrenocorticism, is caused by an overproduction of cortisol. There can be a couple of causes to this. The first and most common cause is a tumor in the pituitary gland. Cushing’s is more common in older dogs, and certain breeds may be predisposed. Some other causes may include a tumor in the adrenal gland itself or the overuse of certain pharmaceuticals such as steroids.
What is Addison’s
Addison’s disease, also known as hypoadrenocorticism, is caused by an underproduction of adrenal gland hormones, most commonly cortisol and aldosterone. It’s also more common in older dogs and seen more frequently in certain breeds. This can lead to a potentially dangerous situation, often referred to as an “Addisonian crisis.” Some symptoms to watch for may include:
- Lethargy and weakness
- Vomiting and diarrhea
- Recurrent illness or decreased immunity
- Electrolyte imbalances on a blood panel, likely elevated sodium and potassium levels
- Loss of appetite
Daily Care Tips
Managing Cushing’s or Addison’s may feel overwhelming, but there are ways to manage your pet’s symptoms, which may help to make a difference in their wellness.
Cushing’s Disease
- Diet: You may notice that your pet is gaining weight due to cortisol overproduction. Some dietary considerations to make may be to focus on a balanced, low-fat diet with nutritious foods. Try to avoid high-calorie treats and aim for food products with healthy ingredients.
- Exercise: Since Cushing’s can contribute to muscle weakness, it’s a good idea to maintain a short and manageable exercise regimen. Short walks are great, and you may also consider an option like hydrotherapy.
Addison’s Disease
- Diet: Addison’s can cause electrolyte imbalances. You can incorporate lean proteins and healthy fats into your pet’s diet, making sure you’re feeding high-quality foods. Foods high in potassium, like bananas and sweet potatoes, may be avoided due to their impact on electrolyte balance.
- Exercise: Similar to Cushing’s, short and low-impact exercise is best for little ones dealing with Addison’s. With this condition, the energy levels of your fur-kiddo can fluctuate so you’ll want to monitor how they are feeling.
Stress Management
It’s important to manage stress for pets dealing with Cushing’s and Addison’s disease to avoid exacerbation of their symptoms. Try to maintain a consistent routine and provide a calm, quiet resting area where your pet can relax. It’s also advisable to minimize exposure to major life changes to help reduce stress in pets.
Veterinary and Holistic Treatments
Diagnosing Cushing’s and Addison’s disease may involve a physical examination, blood tests, urine tests, and sometimes X-rays and ultrasounds. Laboratory testing can reveal abnormalities that are critical to making a diagnosis.
Treatment for these diseases can involve prescription medications, such as steroids, IV fluids, symptom monitoring, and less commonly, surgery. While there is not a cure for Addison’s and Cushing’s, your fur-baby’s quality of life can be managed with treatments, and many go on to live normal lives.
Holistic Support for Pets with Addison’s and Cushing’s Disease
NHV supplements may help support adrenal gland hormone regulation
In addition to medical treatments, natural remedies can also be extremely beneficial in supporting symptoms of Addison’s and Cushing’s disease. NHV supplements may help support adrenal gland hormone regulation and the accompanying symptoms.
NHV’s Adrenal Super Support and Nutritional Balance Kit contains three beneficial supplements that can support your fur-kiddo as they deal with an adrenal gland disorder.
- Supraglan has properties that support the balancing of adrenal gland hormones and help the body respond to stress and inflammation.
- Milk Thistle detoxifies the liver by removing toxins and the main active ingredient in Milk Thistle is Silymarin which helps prevent toxins from binding to the liver.
- Multi Essentials is packed with nutrients and vitamins that may help to fill nutritional voids, balance energy levels, aid in effective digestion, and benefit overall health.
You may also consider adding a calming supplement like Lesstress to help with symptoms of stress and anxiety, which is important for managing Addison’s or Cushing’s disease in pets. Lesstress uses herbs with stress reducing properties like, Lemon Balm, and can also support healthy immunity.
Ready to Start Supporting Your Pet?
Cushing’s and Addison’s disease can be challenging; however, with proper treatment, symptom monitoring, holistic support, and lifestyle changes, pets can live fulfilling lives. Should your fur-kiddo exhibit signs and symptoms of Cushing’s or Addison’s disease, we recommend consulting your veterinarian.
NHV supplements can benefit your pet by providing additional support to help manage symptoms and improve overall well-being. With the right combination of veterinary care and holistic treatments, your pet can feel their best and continue to thrive.

Addison’s Disease, or hypoadrenocorticism, occurs when the adrenal glands do not produce enough hormones. The adrenal glands are located just in front of the kidneys and have two parts – the cortex and the medulla.
The adrenal cortex produces mineralocorticoids (of which the most potent naturally occurring is aldosterone), which help to control the balance of sodium and potassium salts. Glucocorticoids, which are involved in metabolizing nutrients as well as in reducing inflammation and, also produces sex hormones such as estrogen and progesterone.
The adrenal medulla plays an important role in response to stress or low blood sugar (glucose). It releases epinephrine (adrenaline) and norepinephrine, which increase heart output, blood pressure, and blood glucose, and slow digestion.
Addison's Disease is a deficiency in secretion of hormones by the adrenal gland and usually mineralocorticoid and glucocorticoid hormones are both decreased.
Addison’s disease is more common in young to middle aged dogs and occasionally in horses. The disease may be familial in Standard Poodles, West Highland White Terriers, Great Danes, Bearded Collies, Portuguese Water Dogs and a variety of other breeds. The cause of the primary adrenocortical failure usually is unknown, although most cases probably result from an autoimmune process. Other causes include destruction of the adrenal gland by granulomatous disease, metastatic tumor, hemorrhage or infarction. It can also be caused by the medications used to treat overactive adrenal glands, or Cushing’s disease.
Clinical signs include intermittent vomiting, diarrhea, decreased appetite, weight loss, and sometimes dark, bloody diarrhea. Lethargy, depression, and weakness are also common. Sometimes hair loss and increased thirst and urination occurs.
The diagnosis requires laboratory testing, because no clinical signs are specific for Addison’s disease.
Pets in an acute Addisonian crisis require hospitalization and intensive care. For most dogs with hypoadrenocorticism, lifelong supplementation with mineralocorticoids is needed.

SUPRAGLAN
Borage (Borago officinalis) - Borage has antibacterial, antihyperlipidemic, anti-inflammatory, antiplatelet effects and it is an herb that is know for its ability to support adrenal function. Borage contains gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), an omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid, that has effects on components of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone axis, balancing the secretion of aldosterone that is reduced in Addison`s disease.
Astragalus (Astragalus membranaceus) - Astragalus has properties that help to balance the immune system which can be compromised in pets with Addison`s disease. Bistort (Polygonum bistorta) Bistort is an astringent, soothing, anti-inflammatory herb that has tonic effect on the liver and kidneys. It also helps with gastrointestinal issues, like diarrhea which is one of the symptoms present in Addison`s disease.
Eleuthero (Eleutherococcus senticosus) - Eleuthero is a tonic with a modulating effect on major stress axis including pituitary glands, hypothalamus, and adrenal glands. It can increase resistance to infection that help to support the adrenal gland. In addition, it protects the immune system, and contains powerful antioxidants that help scavenge free radicals.
Wild Yam (Diocorea villosa) - Wild Yam is anti-inflammatory herb that contains steroidal saponins (dioscin, dogenin), which is used in the preparation of steroid hormones and helps normalize hormone production which is decreased in Addison` disease.
Licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra) - Licorice is beneficial for the adrenal gland, endocrine, digestive and respiratory system. The main phytochemical of licorice is glycyrrhizic acid helps stimulate the adrenal gland. Licorice also has an anti-inflammatory action like hydrocortisone and another corticosteroid hormones.
Dandelion - Dandelion has anti-inflammatory, antineoplastic, antioxidant, endocrine, gastrointestinal, hepatic and hypoglycemic effects. Dandelion is an anti-inflammatory and tonic herb that helps protect the kidneys which can be injured when the pet presents with Addison`s disease. It can also stimulate liver secretion and improve digestion.
MILK THISTLE
Silybum marianum - As renal failure frequently occurs in Addison’s disease, Milk Thistle can be very beneficial because of its renal protective effects. Several animal studies support the renal protective effects of silymarin against toxic agents. The liver protective properties of Milk Thistle can also be beneficial for pets who take pharmaceutical medications for the treatment of Addison’s disease.

Dogs with adrenal disorders like Cushing’s and Addison’s may have other health issues that can affect a pup’s quality of life. Supraglan™ canine adrenal support supplements can help these dogs.
The overproduction of cortisol in canines with Cushing’s disease can cause excessive thirst, urination, and appetite. These symptoms can result in other side effects like obesity, fat pads near the neck, and low energy.
