    Hello Everyone,

    I am curious if anybody gives their pups foods or supplements for joint health?
    My pup is now 6 yrs old and active. He's been on Origen food (mix of the original recipe & Six Fish Recipe).

    I am just curious as sometimes I seen him favoring his paws (occasionally)

    Any recommendations?

    Thanks in advance :)

    You could look at a natural route to begin with. Something like Golden paste(recipes online) that is based on turmeric and has anti inflammatory properties. My previous lab had this for a couple of years but he was a bit older than yours.

    Been a few years since I posted. It's quiet around here compared to a few years back :)
    My lab has been injured twice in the last year, both back legs from being on a walk. We are convinced it's a joint pain as he seems to seize up after too much activity. Our vet wasn't that interested and just said muscular, rest him.

    However he is 6 and resting only works until the next fun walk where he then takes to his bed and whimpers when he moves

    I am going to be trying Yumove. Our family dog was on it for years and for on really well with it. Will let you know if we see an improvement (if I can get them down him that is)
