Maintaining healthy joints

Chondroitin and glucosamine can promote healthy joints in dogs and ease arthritis pain in dogs and cats.

As they age, keeping your pet's joints healthy becomes an increasingly important part of their well-being that cannot be ignored. If your aging dog or cat is having trouble walking around and suffers from joint pain, or if your pet is diagnosed with osteoarthritis, your veterinarian may recommend two supplements: chondroitin and glucosamine for dogs and cats.

Used singly or together, chondroitin and glucosamine can improve joint health in dogs and cats. These supplements, such as Dasuquin or Cosequin, have been increasingly used to treat symptoms of arthritis in humans and the benefits for dogs and cats can be similar.

Glucosamine is an amino sugar (a compound that includes amino acids and sugars) that is naturally produced and found in pet cartilage. It helps cartilage with two of its main functions: lubrication and shock absorption. Healthy cartilage ensures that bones and joints do not touch, thus preventing bone damage or pain.
The glucosamine for dogs that you can buy in supplements comes from the hard chitin shells of shellfish or is chemically synthesised.

Chondroitin is a carbohydrate produced naturally in animal cartilage. It keeps cartilage hydrated and healthy, and also helps inhibit some enzymes in the joints that destroy and break down cartilage.

There are many supplements available for maintaining healthy joints in dogs and cats:

Arthrilone, Cosequin DS, Doils Joint, Flexadin Advanced, Flexadin Plus, Fortiflex 225, 375 en 525, Phytonics Back Spray, Phytonics Muscle Support, Phytonics Omnimilk, PrimeVal Gelatinaat, Puur Arthro, Puur Dolor, Puur Dyspla, Puur Herny, Puur Spondy, Puur Trauma, Sashas Blend, Seraquin Omega, TROVET Mobility
