FAQ
What is the best joint supplement for cats?
To help prolong your kitty’s joint health, we recommend Old Timer, Yucca and Multi Essentials. Herbs like guggul, ginger and Asian ginseng have been used for centuries to help relieve inflammation and to help improve energy levels. Yucca is rich in antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties that are beneficial for inflamed joints and muscles. Multi Essentials is rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants to help fill nutritional voids and support the growth and maintenance of bones, joints and cartilage.
How to help a dog with arthritis at home?
- Consult your vet for treatment options. This may be a mixture of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and dietary supplements to help manage discomfort and inflammation.
- Maintain a healthy weight. Arthritic joints tend to degrade faster when there is added weight. If your pet is at a healthy weight, it will take some of the strain off their bones and joints.
For pet parents wanting a balanced diet for their arthritic pet, our in-house vet Dr. Amanda can design a balanced home-cooked diet that takes into consideration your little one’s unique needs. - Consider an orthopaedic bed made with memory foam. This will help support your furkiddo’s bones and joints.
- Install ramps, cubes and slip-free flooring. Senior dogs may have a tougher time navigating different spaces and surfaces, especially slick surfaces like hardwood or tiled floors. Ramps and cubes may be helpful for supporting your dog when they need to climb the stairs or get up/down from furniture. Adding rugs or carpets over slippery floors will also help your dog feel steadier on all fours.
- Try massage and exercise. Massage can increase your dog’s flexibility, improve circulation and help them relax. You can gently knead your dog’s stiff muscles or schedule an appointment with a professional pet massage therapist. Daily exercise helps strengthen your pet’s muscles and ligaments and lowers the risk of injury.
- Schedule time for grooming. Furkiddos with arthritis have a hard time grooming themselves, especially in hard-to-reach places. For this reason, we recommend grooming a senior pup more often than a young one.
Can dogs be double jointed?
Dogs may suffer from unstable joints that may result in weak joints or hypermobility (their ligaments are looser than they should be, and is also known as double-jointed in humans). However, some breeds like the Norwegian Lundehund are very flexible and are born with loose joints (in order to squeeze into tight spots and hunt puffins).
