We give our 8 year old Border Collie and our 2 year old
Pyrenees (He had a hip replacement at the age of 14 months) the
regular
human glucosamine/chondroitin . After comparing
ingredients and talking to others who give their dogs the human version
it
seems to be the exact same but only CHEAPER. So why not
give it? Your vet should be able to tell you the dosage if you
aren't
sure. We don't have our other Pyr on it YET but she may
go on it too eventually. She's 4 and already objects to taking her
daily
seizure meds and fish oil pill so I'm not sure we could
add another into the mix right now! How do dogs get so clever when
you
try to hide the pill? Doesn't take long for them to eat
the treat and then several seconds later spit the pill on the floor!
hahaha!
We've used soft dog food, cheese, hot dogs, steak,
hamburger, peanut butter. It all works for a time in fooling her and then
next
thing ya know she's spitting out that pill!
