Dogs
Cartilage damage is cumulative and largely silent. By the time a dog is visibly stiff, the joint has usually been remodelling for two to three years — which is why we push this shelf earlier than most owners expect.
What we stock
Marine omega-3, green-lipped mussel and UC-II, at doses printed per serving.
Adjusted protein and calorie density, softer textures for worn teeth.
Density-rated memory foam. The most-appreciated purchase in this category.
For the sofa jump the dog has started hesitating before.
Buying guide
For anything over 25 kg the sensible window opens at five, not eight. For a dog with a known structural issue — hip dysplasia, a healed cruciate, a luxating patella — support starts at diagnosis regardless of age.
If you only do one thing: get the dog to a lean body condition score. Weight reduction outperforms every product on this shelf, and it is free.
