Joint and Movement Supplements for Dogs

Joint care supplement for all dogs

While a healthy diet and regular exercise are two elements vital to maintaining healthy joints, there may come a time when your hound's joints need a little extra help in the form of dog supplements.

Luckily, we have specially formulated supplements that can reduce inflammation and improve mobility, helping maintain healthy joints so your pup doesn't have to suffer with stiff joints.

Sealions joint supplements for dogs are a nutritional supplement designed for maintainign healthy joints and to support healthy cartilage, whatever your dog's age or activity level.

Why dogs need joint supplements to maintain healthy joints

Just like humans, dogs can require extra joint support as they age. While some dogs are overweight which puts extra strain on joints, other dogs are (unfortunately) genetically predisposed to joint issues, which can lead to mobility problems later on in life.

So, if your dog does end up having some sort of joint issue - whether it's arthritis or hip dysplasia - supplements can provide relief from these symptoms.

Arthritis in dogs

Arthritis is a degenerative joint disease that can result in the loss of cartilage, inflammation and pain. Arthritis is more common in older dogs and while it can be hereditary, that's not always the case.

Obesity can also play a factor in your dog developing arthritis due to added weight on their joints putting extra pressure on them over time.

When to give your dog a joint supplement

Joint supplements aren't just for older dogs with osteoarthritic joints. They provide all round joint support, ensuring joint mobility and keeping joints healthy, whatever your dog's age.

In fact, the best time to start giving your dog a joint supplement is when they are young, before they need support. If you start giving them when they are older, it won't be as effective because the damage has already been done.

Glucosamine and chondroitin are clinically proven to support dogs experiencing mild symptoms, such as stiffness and pain in their joints. Plus, they are safe to use in conjunction with traditional anti-inflammatory treatments, such as corticosteroids or NSAIDs.

How dog joint supplements can help your dog maintain normal joint function

If your dog develops joint problems, or you simply want to give your dog a joint supplement as a preventative measure, make sure you choose one that includes the active ingredients glucosamine hydrochloride (D-Glucosamine HCL) and chondroitin sulphate.

These nutrients help lubricate joints and promote the production of cartilage. They also improve joint strength by reducing inflammation between the bones, allowing them to move together more smoothly.

How to tell if your dog has joint pain

Joint pain is often an undiagnosed problem. Your dog may be in pain and unable to tell you, but you can watch for signs of discomfort when your dog moves around. For example, if you notice that your dog is moving around less than usual or appears to be in discomfort when he or she moves a certain way, there could be an issue with his joints.

Other indications of joint pain include limping or favouring one leg over another and even crying out when getting up from a resting position.

Essential nutrients to keep your dog's joint healthy

Support your dog's joints and mobility with Sealions Joint and Movement supplement. Each joint care tablet contains eight essential nutrients, including 500mg turmeric, to help your dog in maintaining their active lifestyle.

Other ingredients include:

Glucosamine

Glucosamine is a nutrient that can help with joint pain, stiffness and mobility. If your dog has arthritis or hip dysplasia -both common causes of joint problems in dogs - glucosamine may help ease their discomfort.

This substance works by stimulating the production of collagen and cartilage, which helps repair and maintain healthy joints over time.

Unfortunately though, glucosamine won't reverse any existing damage; you may still need to treat symptoms such as inflammation or stiffness with other medications if your dog's condition hasn't improved after taking glucosamine for several weeks or longer (and you should always talk with your vet before giving your dog any new medication).

Chondroitin

Chondroitin helps to maintain healthy joints and cartilage. Chondroitin can be taken as a supplement to help with joint pain, which can make it easier for your dog to move around without pain if they have arthritis or another condition that causes their joints to ache when they move them.

Turmeric

Turmeric is a natural anti-inflammatory that has been used as an herbal remedy for thousands of years in Asia, India and Europe. The active ingredient in turmeric is curcumin, which has been shown to be beneficial in easing arthritis symptoms such as pain and improve mobility.

Due to its anti-inflammatory properties, it also promotes proper joint function through enhanced circulation of blood flow to the affected areas. Even better, turmeric is good for digestion, liver health, and so much more. Plus, it's safe to give your dog.

Hyaluronic acid

Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a type of sugar found in the body. It's a natural substance in the joint structure that helps create cushions in the spaces between joint bones, allowing for smooth movement without pain. And as your dog ages and his joints become less flexible, this ingredient will help keep his joints feeling good.

MSM

MSM stands for methylsulfonylmethane, a nutrient that can help with joint pain and stiffness. MSM has been used as a supplement for years, helping reduce inflammation and improve the overall health of joints.

Omega-3s

Omega-3 fatty acids are a type of fatty acid that can help your dog maintain healthy skin, coat and joints. Omega 3 is known to have anti-inflammatory properties, which is great news for sore joints.

Manganese

Manganese is a component of collagen, which provides structure to skin, tendons, muscles and other connective tissues in the body. Manganese also helps to make cartilage, which is important for mobility, strength and flexibility. It also helps regulate bone development and growth.

Research suggests that manganese has antioxidant properties that may help protect against or slow down the progression of chronic inflammatory diseases such as arthritis or osteoporosis by reducing oxidative stress on cells throughout the body.

Vitamin C

Vitamin C can help with the production of collagen and cartilage, which are both essential for healthy joints. Vitamin C can also reduce inflammation in your dog's joints.

Vitamin E

Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that can help to reduce inflammation, improve skin and coat health, improve immune function, and even improve cardiovascular health in your pooch.

It’s also used to enhance the absorption of other fat-soluble vitamins such as A and D which are important for healthy bones.

Vitamin E works by blocking the oxidation of fats in your dog's body. This stops free radicals from being produced and prevents damage to cells or tissues in the body.
