Comment on Joint Aid for Dogs- save 25% by smileydog

Hi Carla-

I’d certainly consider adding some sort of nutraceutical joint supplement for an 11 year old dog. Glucosamine, Chondroitin, Hyaluronic Acid &/ or Cetyl Myristoleate can all help support joint health without introducing side effects. You can also look into an herbal approach. Everyone has their favorites, and some products will work better than others. A good starting may be to consider a product with a good quality glucosamine, chondroitin content. Choose the form that you think will work best for you (liquid, tablet, capsule, powder) and go from there. As you compare products, be sure to compare dosages, particularly among tablets. Some may advertise 500 mg. per dose and require 4 tabs for that. Others may give it to you in 1 or 2 tabs.

It is a silicone material. Flexible and heat resistant, similar to the silicone spatulas, steamers, baking pans or other kitchen utensils found in cooking shops. The material on these trays seems to be slightly thinner than what I’m accustomed to for baking. It doesn’t affect the quality, since the the size of the tray and treats are small.

Ola! Smileydog,
I know what you mean, My dog is 11 years old. He doesn’t seem to be showing any signs of slowing down, but nevertheless, considering his age should he still be getting some joint aids?
Regards

Look into our local organization, the Animal Hospice, End of Life and Palliative Care Project to find information, education, and a community of like minded animal lovers who are anticipating the loss of an animal friend. I loved the NPR essay you mentioned!

Absolutely. That’s the goal of this project. Let’s hope things work out the way the developers expect.

With the amount of abandoned dogs in shelters and rescues, a birth control pill might just be the answer to the out of control pet population. It is sad that there are so many abandoned dogs. Anything that might keep the pet population down would be helpful.

You can share with your friends in whatever way is most convenient for them. Tell them about it when you see them, email them a link to this post, or the link on the Shopping Cart.

Be sure to have them mention your name when they place their order so we can credit you for sending them along.

Greetings- Thanks very much for your inquiry. We'd be happy to arrange a delivery of some Goat's Milk to you if you reside within our service area. If not, we can certainly ship it, but you may be better served if you can track down a local source, since the product comes frozen. The milk we currently have in stock was delivered to us earlier this month. It has about a 9 month shelf life if kept frozen, about one week once it has been thawed. It sells for $5.75/ pint. Thanks again for your inquiry. Please let me know if we can be of further help!
