Best Answer

Seleno methionine is the plant source of selenium and is almost 100% bioavailable.

How much supplemental selenium your dog needs depends entirely on your dogs baseline selenium status, the amount he's getting from food and his kidney function. You can overdose your dog even with small doses if he already has enough in his diet or has impaired kidney function.

"he content of selenium in food depends on the selenium content of the soil where plants are grown or animals are raised. For example, researchers know that soils in the high plains of northern Nebraska and the Dakotas have very high levels of selenium."
