Re: Osteoarthritis

I have an older cat that has this and the vet recommended we give him glucosamine (sprinkled on his food). After a month or so we saw major differences. He use to whimper when jumping from the floor onto the couch. Now he has no problems jumping from the floor onto the washing machine.

I'm not sure if it has the same effect on dogs or dosage, but may be worth asking your vet about.

Got some of that. He must be able to smell it on the food because he absolutely will not touch it The other dog likes it though lol. Might as well start joint maintenance early.
