Slower on the stairs? One soft chew a day, tied to the walk. Six steps and one pick for medium and large dogs.
In this guide
Vet first, then one chew a day
Your old dog is slower on the stairs and you are staring at a shelf of supplements. Ask your vet first, follow the label, add one new thing at a time and tie it to a daily habit. The Wuffes Chewable Dog Joint Supplement is a soft chew for medium and large dogs, so it is one less pill to hide.
Sudden changes are a vet call, not a shopping trip: limping, yelping, a dog who stops getting up or a new reluctance to move.
Three things on the counter
A soft chew sized for your dog. The Wuffes covers medium and large.
A notebook or a phone note.
Your vet's OK, especially if he takes medication.
Six steps, in this order
Ask your vet whether a joint supplement fits your dog and how much he should get. Bring the name of the product.
Match the chew to his size. The Wuffes is made for medium and large breeds.
Use the amount on the label, or the amount your vet gives you if it differs.
Add one new thing at a time. No new food or second supplement the same week, so you know which one he is reacting to.
Give it at the same time every day. Keep the bag next to the leash so it sticks.
Write down the start date and the good days and bad days. Show the notes at the next checkup.
The catch: daily means daily. Keep the bag next to the leash so it sticks.
Mistakes that cost you the routine
Skip these
Starting two or three new things at once.
Picking a chew made for the wrong size. Small dogs need a different product.
Giving it on and off. Daily means daily.
Pick the chew
Our pick: Wuffes Chewable Dog Joint Supplement. Big dog, daily chew, one less pill to hide. Glucosamine, chondroitin and MSM together in one soft chew, with omega fatty acids included. It slides into the day like the morning walk. The catch: it is for medium and large dogs. A small dog needs a different chew.
