When to start dog hip and joint supplements & which ones are best?
I usually start dogs at risk when they are adults. I recommend Dasuquin Advanced. I would also start an Omega3 supplement to reduce any joint inflammation. Keeping your dog fit and lean is more important than any supplements. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you care for Bella.

What are the best supplements for Cocker Spaniel joints, fur, eyes?
I'd recommend Dasuquin or Cosequin, which are excellent joint supplements. You can also give Peluche fish oil supplements, which help with fur and eyes. For every 30 pounds of body weight, give him 1,000 mg fish oil containing 300 mg of EPA/DHA combined. Best of luck.

Safe NSAID alternatives for dog panosteitis and hip dysplasia?
Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. Thankfully panosteitis is a self limiting disease and will resolve. The hip / elbow dysplasia can be quite uncomfortable and may need surgical intervention if severe enough by an orthopedic surgeon. NSAIDs are ok to give short term but long term is where you may see liver damage. I always start with a conservative approach for arthritis / joint discomfort. Below are the products I would recommend for Rogue and starting these early may be beneficial in the long run. Some of these products you will only be able to purchase from your vet. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further. 1. Fish Oil- Wellactin- Omega 3 fatty acids (DHA) is recommended for arthritis. This is especially important with arthritis patients with kidney disease. Very safe, in overdosage may cause acid reflux or diarrhea. If used in very high doses (especially with aspirin products) may cause prolonged bleeding. Dose is generally 100 mg per 10 pounds. 2. Glycoflex- Glucosamine, chondroitin, MSM supplements are beneficial for multiple types of arthritis and appear to aid in cartilage health. Generally 100 mg/ 10 pounds of body weight is the recommended dosing for glucosamine. Glucosamine products should be used cautiously with diabetic patients. 3. Cetyl-M- This joint supplement uses Cetyl Myristoleate as the main ingredient. This supplement helps in lubricating the joints. This is highly recommended for hip, knee, shoulder, elbow, and carpus arthritis. This supplement is very effective for arthritis/tendon sheath pain. This is commonly used for animals that are chewing over a joint. 4. Duralactin- This product uses milk proteins to reduce inflammation in the body. This product is very safe and has been used in most species of animals with almost no side effects. This is highly recommended for back arthritis/pain. 5. Niacinamide- This is one of the B vitamins and appears to help with arthritis- the dose is 500 mg for dogs over 25 pounds, and 250 mg under 25 pounds. Give the dose 3 times per day. This product is very safe and inexpensive. 6. Adequan Injections - This is an injectable product that can help especially with spinal arthritis in many species of animals. This is an injectable form of chondroitin and works much more rapidly than oral forms of chondroitin. Should not be used with bleeding disorders. This injection is given every 1-4 weeks to help with arthritis. LIFESTYLE CHANGES - Weight loss and exercise are critical to the management of arthritis. If your pet is overweight, changes such as decreasing treats, changing to a diet or prescription weight-loss food, and increasing the amount of low-impact exercise such as swimming, will help to decrease pain and support the joints. PRESCRIPTION DIET - Prescription formulation diets are recommended to provide fish oil, glucosamine, chondroitin and other supplements. This is an especially good option for patients that may be difficult to medicate. Royal Canin Mobility Support and Hills j/d are excellent options for joint supplementation. Reevaluate how much food you are giving each day as these foods are high in fat (fish oil) and may cause weight gain. COLD LASER THERAPY- These treatments stimulate stem cells to re-activate and continue the healing process. This also appears to aid in blood flow and reduce muscle spasms in the area. These treatments are performed weekly for one month, then once monthly as needed. These especially help during the cold winter months when arthritis flairs up. ACUPUNCTURE- can be used to stimulate blood flow and pain release with arthritis.

Does Petco sell affordable dog food for skin allergies like Z/D?
Por favor, perdona mi horrible español! ¡Hola! Si bien estamos asociados con Petco, en realidad no interactuamos con sus tiendas o sus líneas de productos, por lo que tendría que contactar a Petco directamente con su pregunta. Algunos Petcos ahora tienen servicios veterinarios y pueden llevar productos de prescripción veterinaria. Si el suyo no lo hace, puede verificar en línea si hay farmacias para mascotas en línea que se lo envíen; solo necesita que su veterinario le envíe por fax o correo electrónico su receta. Me alegra saber que la comida ZD está funcionando bien y ¡gracias por tu pregunta!

Can Osteo Bi-Flex help my older dog's joint pain? What's the dose?
Osteo biflex can be given to dogs safely, but there are a number of products formulated specifically for dogs that work well, the best of these in my opinion is Cosequin. It's important to have him checked by your vet if you haven't already done so to determine the cause of lameness or joint problems so the underlying cause can be managed correctly. Your vet is also the best person to ask about the correct dosage of any over the counter medication you're considering giving your dog. Adding fish oil to his diet will help protect and ease joint pain and a product called Adequan, an injection available from your vet is excellent for slowing and healing arthritis.
