| Vet Review | Dasuquin for Large Dogs is one of the first products I will reach for in large breed dogs with complaints of stiff or arthritic joints, as the combination of glucosamine, chondroitin, and avocado/soybean make this one of the best products on the market. Because of the high incidence of joint problems in large breed dogs, I will often start using this product even preventatively in middle age dogs to help slow down the likely development of arthritis as the pet ages. I have especially found this product useful in both hip, as well as stifle joint problems.With the latter area, Dasuquin may help lessen inflammation and promote healing in those dogs with sprains of the cruciate ligament or those pets with partial tears of that ligament, where surgery may not be necessary. Dogs love this tasty soft chew that can be given as a treat, and I have seen no adverse effects of this product when used in practice. My only problem with this product is the use of artificial preservatives in the formulation of this chewable, however because of its wonderful combination of ingredients; I give this product an overall rating of 4.5 out of 5. | One of my favorite comprehensive joint supplements, synoviG3 has an excellent high concentration of glucosamine, MSM, creatine, and Perna Canaliculus. I have always favored products with perna canaliculus on the ingredient list, as this ingredient has been shown clinically in human trials to be very effective for both osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. With regular use, this product can not only support joint function and flexibility, but also help strengthen joint cartilage as well. The addition of antioxidants, omega 3 fatty acids, not only enhances the efficacy of this product, but also has other health benefits for the heart, brain and kidneys. Another excellent benefit of this product is the availability of it in several formulations to fit the needs of any dog. I have yet seen any side effects when using this product. The only drawback to this product is the somewhat high cost. I give this product an overall ranking of a 4.5 out of 5. |
