What Is Good for Dogs Hips and Joints?
Answer

Osteoarthritis is a progressive disease in dogs, and unfortunately, there's no known cure for the same. The best way to keep your dog's hips and joints healthy is by maintaining a nutritious diet, exercise, and effective joint supplements. These joint supplements are often used to reduce inflammation, boost function, and slow down joint damage progression. Two of the most common joint supplements used in both humans and dogs are Glucosamine and Chondroitin. These two supplements increase water retention in the cartilage, reduce inflammation, and promote healing. Another good joint supplement is the Green-lipped Mussel, which contains omega 3 fatty acids, antioxidants, and glycosaminoglycans. The Green-lipped mussel is also a potent anti-inflammatory that preserves joint mobility and reduces pain.

What Foods Help Dog Joints?
Answer

It's imperative for a dog suffering from arthritis and other joint problems to have a good diet. Get your dog off the commercial dry dog food since they are likely to contain refined grains. These highly-processed grains are not only limited in nutrition but also aggravate arthritis by increasing inflammation. It's better to choose a diet with whole grains or sweet potatoes, which are rich in phytonutrients and antioxidants. Moreover, add oily fish like fresh salmon, mackerel, and sardines to your dog's diet. These fishes are rich in omega 3 fatty acids, which is anti-inflammatory and boosts mobility in joints. The name of the game is to choose a diet that will help the god lose weight and reduce inflammation in the joint.

Is Glucosamine Good for Dogs?
Answer

There are several studies to show that Glucosamine is good for dogs. According to some studies, the joint supplement has proven to slow down the progression of arthritis in both dogs and humans. Glucosamine is also known to help in joint lubrication and stimulate proteoglycans production. The proteoglycans help maintain the health and resiliency of joints and connective tissues. Glucosamine by itself is an excellent supplement for cartilage. However, combining it with naturally occurring Glycosaminoglycans like Chondroitin and MSM might help boost the overall response of the supplement.

Which Is Better for Dogs Glucosamine or Chondroitin?
Answer

Glucosamine is a naturally occurring amino sugar that maintains connective and cartilage tissues' strength, elasticity, and flexibility. Glucosamine aids in repairing damaged cartilage and mobility. On the other hand, Chondroitin acts as a cushion between joint bones and gives elasticity to cartilage. These two are not better than each other but are recommended to be administered together to boost collagen and proteoglycans production in the joint cartilage. They also form the building block of the synovial membrane, which produces the fluid to lubricate joints.

Can Glucosamine Kill a Dog?
Answer

If you ask whether Glucosamine is capable of killing your dog in standard dosage, the answer is not it cannot. However, since Glucosamine comes in the form of delectable treats and if you're not careful with the storage, your dog might eat the whole bag, and that may lead to disastrous consequences. Some severe health hazards include lethargy, agitation, internal organ damage, kidney damage, haemorrhage and even coma. In some cases, very rarely, the glucosamine overdose may also result in the dog's death.

How Long Does It Take for Glucosamine to Work in Dogs?
Answer

Glucosamine is an oral supplement that comes in the form of liquid, powder, chewable tablets, and capsules. Pet parents can administer the medication with or without a meal. However, if you notice your dog vomiting when administered on an empty stomach, give future doses of the supplement with food. With the correct dosage and administration, the medication should start showing gradual improvements within a few days and up to a few weeks before full effects show up. Give the supplement at least two to six weeks to evaluate if it's working for your dog.

When Should I Start Giving My Dog Glucosamine?
Answer

Several dog breeds are more prone to hip and joint issues than any other. Do some research and find out if your dog belongs to such a species, and if it does, it's advisable to start joint supplements as soon as their body stops growing. This could be as early as the dog turns a year old for most breeds. As for dogs susceptible to developing osteoarthritis due to confrontation or injury, joint supplements should be started as early as eight weeks of age.

What Are the Side Effects of Glucosamine in Dogs?
Answer

There are several side effects associated with the use of Glucosamine in dogs. These include allergies (specifically shellfish allergy), insomnia, fatigue, increased urination, excessive thirst, and diabetes. Therefore, it's recommended to consult a vet before giving Glucosamine to your dog to observe its health and decide the correct dosage.

Chicken, peas, barley flour, glycerin, flax seed, white rice, oat flour, gelatin, pea fiber, chicken cartilage, barley, salmon oil, phosphoric acid, dried brewers yeast, salt, natural smoke flavor, palm oil, zinc propionate, calcium propionate (a preservative), blueberries, pomegranate extract, L-ascorbyl-2-polyphosphate, natural flavor, L-carnitine, ascorbic acid (source of vitamin C), preserved with mixed tocopherols and citric acid
