How it works: The active ingredients include glucosamine, chondroitin, and MSM. Glucosamine is a natural compound that is found in healthy cartilage in both humans and pets. It helps hydrate healthy joints by increasing the production of molecules that bind and hold water in the cartilage. Healthy cartilage provides cushioning which helps protect a pet's joints while exercising. Many believe that it provides clinical benefit in the synovial fluid by strengthening cartilage and aiding glycosaminoglycan synthesis. Further research on the effectiveness of glucosamine is still needed, but many of our customers find it to be very beneficial to their pets.

Love love love!
I bought this to add to my 13-year-old toy poodle's food. He doesn't act like there is any difference in the taste of his food, but there is definitely a difference in his mobility. He runs and jumps and pounces all over the house. He usually has stiff joints as a result of aging and a couple injuries from when he was younger. Seeing him act young again makes this product totally worth it. Squirting it in his food couldn't be easier, and watching the reaction is more than rewarding. I will keep using this product forever!

It works!
Within one week of using 10 squirts per day, my 70 lb., 9 1/2 year old basset / bloodhound's stiff joints have improved dramatically! He no longer limps after rising! No one is more surprised--I had thought glucosamine/chondroitin products were probably just snake oil. But after watching my beloved hound's mobility decline, I decided to try one. I was saddened to find that many joint supplements contain hydrogenated fats, creatine, and other unhealthful ingredients. It grieved me to sacrifice my guy's arteries and kidneys for the sake of an unproven joint remedy. But then I came across 1800PETMEDS Super Joint Enhancer Liquid. There isn't anything dreadful in this stuff, and it's easy to squirt it on his food in the morning (I also use 3 squirts of Atlantic Salmon Oil). I was blown away by how quickly and dramatically this worked! He's been on it for several weeks now, and the results are not a fluke. My dear friend truly is moving and feeling better. I've now ordered two more bottles and will continue using the liquid joint enhancer indefinitely. The ONLY drawback is that the butterscotch flavor smells gross to me. Why not chicken or beef? I'd gladly pay a bit more for a smell/taste that "goes with" dog food better. But the hound of my heart doesn't hesitate to eat his breakfast, so this is a very small complaint. Fantastic product. I cannot really express how thankful I am to have found it.

WORST EVER
This made my cat throw-up repeatedly. He was throwing up foam like matter. Never again will I use this product. What a waist of time and money. It took me a while to nuture my cat back to health. He was looking lathargic and Mr. Booger is 19 lbs.

Be Aware
Product gave my little dog severe gastrointestinal distress.....He couldn't walk or jump because his tummy was so swollen. He was lethargic and depressed. It took 2 weeks after starting usage for the problem to develop. After discontinuing use, the symptoms disappeared.
We have two small dogs, one was not affected so it depends on the dog. It is the only new thing that was introduced into their diet so it was easy enough to point the finger especially since the symptoms went away after we stopped giving the medicine.

Loves it!
Out of all the joint suppliments I have tried for my pet... this is the best... I have tried the joint enhacer soft chews (which were hard as a rock), the synovG3 (which my dog wouldn't go near) and now this. My do licks his bowl clean with this! So thankful!!

I have a dog with extreme food allergies. We had her on the Super Joint Omega soft gels, which have been discontinued. I need to ensure there are no beef, pork, chicken or grains in this product.
Jill, I'm sorry, the Super Joint Enhancer liquid only comes in the 12 ounce pump bottle. We do carry Super Joint Enhancer chewable tablets which you can get in 120 tablet or 240 tablet bottles: http://www.1800petmeds.com/Super+Jo...
