Buckles has had a bit of inflammation in his hind legs for the last few years and I’ve tried all sorts of things to help him. I switched up his diet, I tried a bunch of different supplements, and in the last 6 months, I think I’ve finally found just the right mix of things that work. His joint inflammation has drastically gone down and he seems much more sprite and agile! I am thrilled.
First, I started incorporating Doggie Dailies. After doing a ton of research, these had the best reviews and also the cleanest ingredients. Side note: I can’t believe how much garbage is in so many pet supplements! I steered clear of any kind of syrups or sweeteners, and tried to find the most pure products I could. This really fit the bill. I give him 4 with his dinner, as per the instructions, and it takes about 4 - 6 weeks but I saw a noticeable difference in his agility and his knees feel far less inflamed. They smell amazing to me but he won’t eat them on their own. They’re really soft though, so I just mush them up and hide them in his food and he gobbles them down without an issue.
I also have been regularly using the CBD Pet Formula from BodyCheck Wellness, and you can use code YBC25 for 25% off, if you’d like! Bonus, this really chills him out and is also great for when he’s anxious during thunderstorms.
In addition, I also add a shake or two of ground organic ginger to his food, and every once in a while, I’ll swap that out for a little piece of cut up fresh ginger. He loves it!
If anyone out there has a dog who is dealing with creaky, arthritic joints, give these a try for a few weeks and see if they make a difference!
