How do I know if my dog needs a joint supplement?
To understand if our animals are suffering, we must therefore rely on a whole series of signals indirect. Even though they may be a little vague, it is important to identify them in order to help your four-legged friends!
- has less desire to walk, run and play
- can no longer stand up on his hind legs
- finds it difficult to get up from a lying position and does so slowly, as if he had become lazier
- walks differently, for example by taking small, quick steps, swaying his hips in an unusual manner
- the rear area is no longer cleaned, where the coat therefore takes on a neglected appearance
- has a lot of difficulty going up and down the stairs
- no longer wags his tail, is reluctant to be petted or even growls if touched in certain places
- muscles of the limbs become thinner (atrophy due to reduced movement)
These are all signs that your dog is feeling some level of discomfort.
Providing hip and joint supplement for dogs is important for several reasons, particularly for maintaining their mobility, preventing joint issues, and supporting overall joint health.
What are the key ingredients?
Glucosamine sulfate is the most common type of glucosamine used in osteoarthritis supplements and is also the most extensively studied. Glucosamine plays a very important role in our dogs joints, as it supports the formation and regeneration of cartilage tissue, promoting their recovery.
Chondroitin sulfate is a natural compound that belongs to glycosaminoglycans, which are large molecules composed of sugar. Chondroitin sulfate plays an important role in maintaining the structural integrity and elasticity of cartilage. Cartilage is a flexible and durable tissue that cushions joints and allows for smooth movement. This makes chondroitin sulfate an especially important ingredient in supporting joint health.
Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM): A natural compound known for its anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. May help reduce muscle damage, stiffness and joint pain.
Green tea extract - is derived from the leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant, the same plant from which green tea is made. Green tea extract has both anti-inflammatory and immune-boosting properties that can reduce inflammation in the body and support the immune system to fight infections.
Why and when should a dog be given a food supplement for joint support?
Ossification is a process that lasts throughout the dog's growing life. At a young age, a heavy burden falls on the skeleton — you have to grow yourself and be able to maintain a body with rapidly increasing mass.
Early use of joint supplements during this important period can provide valuable nutrients that support the healthy development of joints and cartilage to reduce the risk of developing problems later.
The product can be used prophylactically to strengthen the joints and ligaments of a growing puppy and young dog, as well as for support during the recovery period after musculoskeletal disorders (bone fractures, joint diseases, ligament damage, etc.).
For dogs engaged in intense physical activity (e.g. agility, sports dogs), a joint supplement can help strengthen joints and prevent/alleviate stiffness.
In an older dog, joint supplements help support general mobility, reduce inflammation and improve quality of life.
If the animal has a more serious health problem, such as limping, it is imperative to consult a veterinarian.
NB! the product does not replace veterinary treatment!
What age can Hip & Joint jelly be used from?
The product is suitable for all dogs from 3 months of age.
Is my dog going to like how jellies taste?
Jellies are highly palatable to pets, making them an excellent choice for picky dogs.
