Joint Care Supplements for Older Dogs

If you have a senior dog and are thinking of giving them a daily joint supplement to help them to keep doing all the things they love to do everyday without having to slow down too much, we thought you might find this summary helpful.

There are a range of options for your dog:

• Chondroitin helps to slow the rate of cartilage damage and works well in combination with glucosamine, which use used by the body to make new cartilage.
• MSM has been shown to reduce the inflammation in joints.
• Omega-3 oil has been proven to sooth stiff joints
• HA (hyaluronic acid) helps to lubricate the joints
• Green Lipped Mussel: contains both Chondroitin and Omega-3

We particularly love omega-3 oil for its anti-inflammatory role as well as its added benefit for brain health which means it is perfect for puppies though to seniors. 

In fact, we love it so much we have added it to our Tuna Scones and Tuna Training Treats and these delightful treats are gluten free too.

Here’s list of supplements we’d recommend.
