Good Mid-priced Joint Supplements
~Archie~ replied to shells's topic in Health / Nutrition / Grooming
I used joint guard in my boston who had a partial cruciate tear, she recovered really well. -
Another vote for Joint Guard. I have used it over the years for Mum's old Labrador, and now have my cat on it and have noticed a massive change in both Mum's lab & our cat. I have recommended it to a heap of friends & family with older animals and they all have seen fantastic results.

Why don't you just use Sentinel Spectrum monthly, and then you won't need to use the allwormer every three months and you wouldn't need to use a flea treatment. You can use advantix fortnightly for ticks during tick season.
-
Your vets can order in the Adaptil collars if you ask them.
-
If it's working, why swap? I buy the 750g tub for my dogs, and it lasts longer and is cheaper. From my discussions with our vets, Joint Guard is designed to be absorbed by dogs, humans absorb the products differently to animals, and by using a human product, you may not be getting maximum absorption of chondroitin.

Vets can order it thru their wholesalers. I have heard of the collars being order from the UK being stopped at customs because they aren't registered here..

Just bumping this up, because I know people have been looking for these, we got an Adaptil (DAP) collar for our Retriever the other night from our vet! They're now available in Australia at long last!!!

Cosequin and Joint Guard are the best 2 products on the market. Joint Guard works out to be more cost effective than Cosequin, and you can get a range of sizes, as well as a chew! They are both made by the same company. I have used Joint Guard for years with fantastic results.

If it's due to anxiety, you could try using the DAP spray on a bandanna or on her bedding. DAP is an appeasing pheromone that helps them if they're anxious, it calms them & reassures them.

Giving Joint Guard - Help Please?
~Archie~ replied to violetmay's topic in Health / Nutrition / Grooming
I feed my dog Joint Guard chews and he just loves them. You could give the chews instead of giving him the schmakos -
My Mum's piggy Labrador won't eat it! I found it to be very unpalatable. I feed my dog (and cat) Royal Canin and have thrived on it.

I was talking to a vet about this recently, there have apparently been a few cases of dogs having "issues" whilst being treated for mange... i.e ivermectin treatment There is no warning on any Australian packaging, although the company did send out letters to all vets.

Hills Science J/d (joint Diet) - Limited Availability
~Archie~ replied to pipsqueak's topic in Health / Nutrition / Grooming
Just use a normal food and add in a joint supplement like Joint Guard -
I feed my Golden Retriever, Paws & Claws Fish Oil capsules, I just add them into his breakfast and he eats them like treats! Archie has them with his dry food, and they aren't messy or anything.

Alternative Therapies For Anxiety
~Archie~ replied to GoldenGirl85's topic in Health / Nutrition / Grooming
DAP sprayed onto a bandanna and placed around her neck. Let the bandanna sit for about 10 minutes before putting it on, as the smell takes a bit to settle I have used it on my Golden Retriever who is a bit anxious inside the house and its taken the edge off, he just sleeps
