| Vet Review | A wonderful joint supplement made by the Nutramax company, this newer joint supplement is often considered the next generation cosequin. While it has the glucosamine and chondroitin found in the cosequin product, Dasuquin contains additional joint health promoting ingredients, including avocado/soybean products that have been clinically shown to enhance joint function, especially in those pets with severe arthritis. The only thing I don¿t like about some of the Nutramax products is the inclusion of some dyes and artificial flavorings listed in the ingredients, which as a holistic veterinarian does bother me to some degree. Dasuquin, however performs wonderfully in practice on the toughest cases of arthritis, making it one of my favorite products to reach for. The only other minor negative is the high cost of the product, however I truly believe the price is well worth it with this excellent joint supplement. I give it an overall rating of a 5 out of 5. | This wonderful whole food human grade nutritional supplement truly fills in the gaps in nutrition that are lost in the processing of commercial pet foods. Not only do the wide variety of nutrients including flax and other nutrients optimize nutrition for the dog, but the inclusion of added glucosamine also helps maintain healthy joints. I have found that when animal guardians add this wonderful formula to their canine companions' diets, that the immune systems function better, as well as there is better digestion and overall health. While I will recommend the Missing Link only formula to all of my new puppy clients, I will also recommend the Missing Link Plus Canine with Joint support to all of my senior dogs, especially those with any signs of arthritis. Most pets find this formula highly palatable, which is easy to sprinkle and mix with whatever diet is being fed. And boy, will it make that diet so much better and healthier for the pet. I therefore give this product an overall ranking of a 4.5 out of 5. |
