Dog Joint Supplement?

[tunajune]

I've been giving my 45-lb. setter-spaniel mix a heaping tablespoon of Missing Link Plus since she was 4 yrs. old. Then since about 7 yrs. old, she has been getting two 250-mg. chewable glucosamine chrondroitin tabs daily, one in the a.m. and one in the p.m.

She's now 17 years old and does a happy dance before her daily walk and can do stairs with few problems. She has had no health problems other than cataracts and partial deafness.

My little one's breed (JP) is supposed to have a 10-12 yr. average life span. I'm duplicating my elder dog's regimen and hoping for the best!

As far as I know Cosaquin doesn't have MSN in it. However the same company has a product called Dasaquin w/MSN. I'm not sure if you can get that at a pet store or not.

You are right standard Cosaquin does not have MSM. They make a product called "Cosaquin optimized MSM"

I had to google it because we don't carry that at work and I've never heard our sales reps mention it. Now I know why, it's listed as an equine supplement. We don't do large animal where I work so that's why I've never heard of it.
