Safe Recommended Joint Supplements

Updated 2-15-23


​Click on images below to go to product
​
Some of my favorite ingredient mixes have " * " next to it
​

These are some supplements that I have sorted through to check for preservatives etc. I have added each one and put my opinion on them. Most have some small amount of preservatives but I weeded out the worst ones. If you have any questions or recommendations on these or other supplements, please feel free to email me. Always remember, anything coming from water, can and probably will contain a certain amount of mercury. So use it wisely and not long term.

Some of these are made for humans and are safe to give. I checked ingredients. Not all human supplements are safe so if you find something and are unsure, PLEASE email me and I will verify the ingredients for you. Human dosage is equivalent to a 150 lb human, so adjust dosage from there.

​Below when reading ingredients, also pay attention the the "mg" in each ingredient. If you have a large dog or one in bad shape, you want larger amounts in mg's. 

Discontinue use of supplements at least 24-48 hours before surgery..depending on your dog's severity of joint problems.
​Stop Vit E and fish oils 7 days prior to surgery
Finding a good mix may not always be in one supplement. I myself use 3 different types plus fish oils for joint support.
Make sure one contains Glucosamine and the others with herbs that fight inflammation. 

Scroll to bottom for severe cases
inactive ingredients to avoid

​​*CanineActiv 

Picture
​Use to relieve pain and inflammation and help increase mobility.
Can be used as a preventative before activity. 


Can add whole capsule into food or treat or open capsule and sprinkle into wet foods. (FYI-Has a slight bitter taste to it).
Alpha-GEE/Amino Acids, Boswellia Serrata/BOSWELLIA, Glycyrrhiza Glabra/Licorice Root, Harpagophytum/Devils Claw, Curmuma longa/Curcumin-Turmeric, Medicago sativa/Alfalfa, Tanacetum parthenium/Feverfew, Yucca schidigera/YUCCA

Licorice Root (Glycyrrhiza uralensis) should not be given for periods longer than 2 weeks without a break in between. Do not give to heart patients if your dog clearly has heart symptoms.
If you must use for more than two weeks make sure that you add dandelion to the diet so that increased potassium requirement is met and elimination of excess sodium is enabled.


*Licorice can be processed to remove the glycyrrhiza, resulting in DGL (deglycyrrhizinated licorice), which does not appear to share the metabolic disadvantages of licorice.

Usually the extracts or concentrated forms have the biggest problem with these side effects mentioned above. The whole raw root would need to be in high amounts and taken more than a couple weeks to cause high blood pressure etc...


ArthrOrganics Canine Joint Formula

Picture
​Joint pain in pets is a common condition. More than 20% of dogs over one year old, are suffering this painful debilitating condition.
The causes of joint pain in pets are very similar to those in humans. Hereditary factors, diet and repetitive wear and tear are associated with joint destruction.
Additionally, the family pet, has become the victim of a lack of exercise, resulting in extra weight. In both humans and animals, extra weight causes undue stress on the joints and greatly increases the chance of developing joint pain.  

*Horsetail (Do not use in pets with bladder stones composed of silica or related minerals; heart disease or high blood pressure. Not to be used when using Licorice root.)

*Nature's Pure Edge

**If you already give your dog calcium, consider adjusting that dosage as this contains calcium. Too much can be harmful.

Type II is specific for joints which contains bovine cartilage including trachea and is a natural source of collagen and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs); and I and III are specific to skin, hair, and nails. Type X collagen is also for joints and cartilage and comes in the form of eggshell membranes.

DC-Y by MVP (for horses but used in dogs and humans)

Picture
This is for horses as you can see and is made into a pellet but is safe for your dog..and even humans.

Small dogs: 1/2 tsp - 1 tsp
Med dogs: 1 tsp - 1  1/2 tsp
Large dogs: 1  1/2 - 2 tsp

Adjust dosage as needed... too high of a dose can cause some loose stools..just work up slowly to the recommended amount. 

Get you a pill grinder and grind these up and pour into foods. I swear by this stuff. I have seen it shrink tumors within 7 days. It fights off inflammation and contains ingredients that fight cancer cells. Great for fighting joint inflammation.

***********************************

​Yucca is an herb native to North and Central America used by ancient and modern civilizations to address musculoskeletal discomfort. Active ingredients have been isolated from Yucca that have shown to have antioxidant properties to help support natural inflammatory response.

Boswellia comes from the same resin of trees that produce frankincense. It contains naturally occurring compounds that are said to interfere with the enzymes that contribute to inflammation and discomfort.

Devil’s Claw is a South African herb that is used for discomfort in bone, joints, and other tissues. Data from 14 clinical trials in people conducted over the last 40 years suggest Devil’s Claw has beneficial properties in the musculoskeletal system. Because it contains “bitters” as an active ingredient, which encourages appetite but also stimulates the secretion of stomach acids, it should be used with caution in those at risk for gastric (stomach) upset. It is also recommended to check competition rulings before using products containing Devil’s Claw.

Cat’s Claw supports a healthy inflammatory response, primarily due to the glycosides present in the herb.

Turmeric is a powerful antioxidant that helps combat oxidative stress and supports a natural inflammatory response for overall health.

White Willow - Due to its rich blend of antioxidants and organic compounds, willow bark functions to support a natural inflammatory response throughout the body.

Grape Seed Extract (GSE) is rich in antioxidants to help support a healthy inflammatory response and cardiovascular health. It appears that the antioxidants in grape seed extract work cooperatively with Vitamin E to help neutralize free radicals.

Feverfew is a weedy perennial that belongs to the daisy/sunflower family of flowering plants. It consists of some compounds that support a natural inflammatory response.
