With my own dogs, I use a MSM and glucosamine supplement Nutramax Dasuquin as I have seen an incredible improvement in my own senior dog's mobility as well as in clients' dogs. The chew is easy to eat and most dogs consider them a treat, making it an ideal addition to mealtimes ensuring comfort and ease of motion for older pups.
After two ACL repair surgeries on one dog and a degenerative disk disease diagnosis in my younger dog's neck, I also started utilizing Duralactin for chronic inflammation management. My dogs enjoy the tablets, but I have had several clients that were not too keen on the vanilla flavored tablets, and the size also poses difficulty for inserting the pill inside a tastier treat. However, I have seen improvements in both of my dogs with the addition of this lactose based anti-inflammatory, and I also like that it poses no health risks with prolonged use (unlike many prescriptions). Duralactin also begins working immediately (unlike Dasuquin which requires two weeks to develop a baseline of results), which makes it ideal for assisting older dogs who have done more than their bodies could handle. With this in mind, we are pleased to offer Duralactin to our senior guests as well as to other guests who may benefit from this relief. Simply let us know how we can make your pup more comfortable during their adventure with us!
