Best Natural Joint Supplements for Dogs
Did you know that 1 in 4 dogs will suffer from stiff, achy joints?
It can affect dogs of all ages especially when the weather gets colder. Luckily there are lots of safe, natural ways to help reduce inflammation and thereby reduce pain. Here are our favourites.
Spring Joint Supplement
Our Spring joint supplement is a blend of herbs with Devils Claw. Devils Claw isn't necessarily the first supplement you would think of for joint pain but we think it is one of the most effective. Devils Claw is a natural pain reliever with strong anti-inflammatory benefits. Our Spring joint supplement is one of our most popular and harnesses the healing power of devils claw, MSM and yucca fillamentosa. Incredible value for money too costing from 30p per day for a medium sized dog.
Glucosamine
You will often hear glucosamine mentioned when people talk about joint support. Glucosamine occurs naturally in the body and is used to build tendons, ligaments and cartilage. Joint supplements contain glucosamine to repair cartilage and relieve pain. Choose between our Glucosamine Plus 5000 and Glucosamine Ultimate which is boosted with MSM, Green Lipped Mussel and Hyaluronic Acid and Vitamin C.
Green Lipped Mussel
Green Lipped Mussel has long been known to be an excellent anti-inflammatory however some herbal formulas can be a little harsh on the tummy. That is why we only sell green lipped mussel in homeopathic form. One tiny pill daily is exceptionally effective in helping to reduce inflammation and discomfort. This is by far the most cost effective way to manage joint pain as one pack costs £13.50 and is enough for at least 100 days.
A-Combo
No matter what joint supplement you choose to give your dog, there will often be days when the pain is worse than others. For those occasions, keep a stock of our custom formulated homeopathic tablets - A-Combo. A-Combo homeopathy contains our own house blend of Rhus Tox., Ruta and Arnica in one tiny pill. Give one pill every 1/2 hour if necessary on days when your dog seems particularly achy. You should quickly see a difference. Also perfect for minor strains, sprains and injuries. A first aid kit essential.
Turmeric
Turmeric's active ingredient Curcumin is a fantastic joint supplement too. Whether you choose our liquid turmeric or capsules, both contain added black pepper to aid absorption and bio-availability. Beware of buying any turmeric products that do not contain this as they are unlikely to be as effective. Turmeric also has lots of other health benefits for your dog including heart health, digestion, immune system and is a powerful anti-oxidant which makes it great for older dogs.
