Glucosamine ?? Empty Glucosamine ??

Post by hollymolly Fri Jan 18 2013, 18:37

I was just wondering how many tabs i should give Inca on a daily basis as she gets abit limpy on her right front leg after she's had a nice long walk and then had a sleep after it !!...

Iv'e bought the same tablets i used to give my Rottie but i can't quite remember how many he was on at the time ... There from Simply Supplements .. All in one tab Glucosamine 500mg, Marine Chondroitin 100mg & MSM 100mg..

She weighs around 21kg and i just wanna make sure i give her the right dose for her size but with the tabs being for people i can't quite figure out how many she should be on Wink ..

Cheers ella ... my thoughts exactly on it being an expensive hype.. Even my old vet said certain supplements to aid joints in people are fine for dogs to take an alot cheaper .. So i'll start her of on one tab a day

Thanks hun x
