(PRESS RELEASE) WEIDMAN, MI — Trusted veterinarian Dr. Jan Pol is expanding his expert pet care portfolio with the launch of Dr. Pol Clinical Nutrition, a new line of veterinarian-formulated dog food designed to support dogs with specific nutritional needs, no prescription required. The new product line, manufactured and distributed by Consumers Supply Distributing, LLC (CSD), will be available exclusively at Walmart stores nationwide and on Walmart.com beginning in March.
Expertly designed with targeted nutrition in mind, the Dr. Pol Clinical Nutrition line features three specialized formulas designed to help support dogs with unique nutritional needs:
- Weight Management
- Food Sensitivities
- Gastrointestinal Care
Dr. Pol, wife Diane Pol, son Charles Pol (CEO of Docson Brands, LLC) and daughter-in-law Beth Pol (COO of Docson Brands, LLC) are excited to make their annual trip to Orlando to attend Global Pet Expo 2026 at the Orange County Convention Center March 25 & 26. Charles and Beth will be in Booth #3806 on the expo floor, and Dr. Pol will be available for one-on-one interviews by appointment on Thursday, March 26 to discuss the launch of Dr. Pol Clinical Nutrition Dog food. Please submit interview requests to: [email protected].
Pet owners looking for targeted nutrition have historically needed veterinary prescriptions to access specialized formulas. Dr. Pol Clinical Nutrition was developed to provide many of the same targeted benefits, while offering greater accessibility and affordability. Centered on science-based nutrition and Dr. Pol’s clinical experience, each recipe is a complete and balanced diet that meets the nutritional requirements established by the AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles for maintenance, while incorporating thoughtfully selected ingredients, multi-fiber blends, and a proprietary six-strain probiotic pack to support digestion, health and vitality.
“Over my 50 years as a vet, I’ve watched too many dog owners get priced out of doing what they feel is right for their animals,” explains Dr. Pol. “Prescription dog food isn’t medicine. It’s nutrition — carefully selected ingredients formulated for specific needs. So I took those same proven ingredients and made them accessible in my Dr. Pol Clinical Nutrition Dog food without the high price tag or the barriers. I’m proud to be partnering with Walmart to challenge the status quo and bring practical, affordable clinical nutrition to the families who need it most.”
With more than 50 years of treating animals, Dr. Pol has built a reputation for practical, compassionate care focused on keeping animals healthy and thriving. The new Dr. Pol Clinical Nutrition line extends that philosophy into daily feeding routines, helping pet owners support their dogs’ health through nutrition in the following categories:
