Just like people, our dog's joints can deteriorate especially when they are overweight and getting older. Regular exercise and a healthy diet both aid in keeping joints healthy and lubricated even as our furry friend is aging. Now I am not saying by following these recommendations that your companion will never experience joint pain, but they will help in preventing severe discomfort in your friend.
Today there is a number of products on the market to aid in joint relief and repair. They range from topical ointments to chewable tablets. Be sure to read the information on each product that you are considering very carefully. Some products that are used for extended periods of time can cause severe complications. An example of this is products containing NSAIDs (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs). When used over a prolonged period of time products containing NSAIDs can cause Kidney and Liver damage in your friend.
The proven effects of Glucosamine and Omega-3 fatty acids not only work in us humans, but also in our trusted companions. An affordable product that I found which contains these vital supplements and is free of NSAIDs.
