Common Joint Issues & How Dog Joint Supplement Can Help

As dog owners, we know it’s normal to see our furry friends experience changes in their mood and energy levels. There are all kinds of reasons why this might happen, and generally, they are not always things to be worried about. However, there are times when we should take note of their behaviour, especially if these changes continue for an extended period.

Things like increased irritability, not enjoying games or walks like they used to, or reluctance to jump could be signs of potential joint problems. It's for these types of issues that we developed our joint supplements for dogs.

Size of Breed, Age & Weight

Some breeds are more susceptible or genetically predisposed to joint issues. Not much can be done to prevent a genetic problem, but delaying the onset of joint problems can be possible with the right dog supplement.

Joint problems may be exacerbated by a dog being overweight or just being heavy like large & giant breeds. If your dog is highly active, like a working dog or agility dog, their long-term joint health may benefit from our dog joint supplement chews.

Difficulties of Treatment

If medication is prescribed by your vet, sometimes administering this to your pet is easier said than done. Tablets, in particular, can be difficult to disguise within their regular food, particularly if your dog is a fussy eater who can smell a trick a mile away. This means that your dog might not be getting the joint support that they really need. Our joint supplements for dogs in Australia have been formulated with delicious Australian chicken making them irresistible to dogs while helping to slow joint degeneration.

Exercise

As our dogs get older and joint problems present themselves, they may not want to move in the same energetic way they used to. With careful support from your vet, nothing can replace appropriate exercise for your dog. Your vet can suggest a number of gentle exercises that are appropriate for the condition of their joints, or even refer your dog to a physiotherapist or prescribe hydrotherapy.

Buy High-Quality Glucosamine Chews for Dogs in Australia

As our best friends get older, they can experience similar issues with their joints as we do: stiffness, immobility and even arthritis. One of the best ways to support your ageing pet to feel more comfortable and alleviate joint pain symptoms is with glucosamine supplements for dogs.

Glucosamine occurs naturally in cartilage to aid the lubrication and smooth movement of joints. While dogs produce glucosamine naturally, its production declines with age. Fortunately, it’s easy to find glucosamine in supplements for dogs, which can be derived from some varieties of shellfish or synthesised from plants.

The Benefits of Dog Supplements with Glucosamine

Giving your pet dog supplements with glucosamine has many benefits. With age, a dog’s cartilage can wear down. Adding glucosamine to your dog’s diet can help to maintain the cartilage in their joints and support their mobility in their senior years. Studies of glucosamine joint chews for dogs have shown that it may stimulate the connective tissue and keep the joints more resilient, helping to keep them more supple. With regular use of a dog glucosamine supplement, they may experience:

  • Less joint stiffness
  • Better bone health and joint function
  • Relief from joint pain
  • Easier movement
  • Increased enjoyment of exercise
  • Supported healing after surgery (glucosamine will help slow the arthritic process that surgery – or the reason they are having surgery - may cause but won’t necessarily support healing)

Even if your dog is not yet showing signs of ageing, you may want to consider giving them dog supplements with glucosamine as a preventative measure, especially if they are very active, overweight or have hyper-mobile joints. Some studies suggest that some dogs under two years of age may already have issues with their joints and exhibit minor symptoms of arthritis. So, glucosamine supplements are not just helpful for older dogs but younger dogs too. They’re also a great supplement to consider if your dog has recently had joint surgery.

A Combination of Powerful Active Ingredients

Our premium supplement for dogs, ZamiPet Joint Protect, has been specially formulated to ensure that your dog will get the most benefit to their joint health. Not only does it contain glucosamine but other ingredients beneficial to joint health including:

  • Chondroitin Sulfate - a naturally occurring substance that promotes water retention and elasticity in cartilage and inhibits enzymes that break down cartilage.
  • Hyaluronic acid – a substance found in many areas of the body that may alleviate symptoms of joint inflammation and helps maintain the synovial fluid that lubricates joints.
  • Methylsulfonylmethane - also known as MSM, is an antioxidant and cell rejuvenator, which can help build and preserve cartilage, reduce inflammation and support joint function..
