So, I've started Wylie (my 4 yr. old) on his Cosequin. The ramp-up dosage for 6 weeks is 1/2 capsule per day.

Then for the maintenance dose, for dogs under 10 lbs., you have a choice of either going to 1/2 capsule per day OR to 1/2 capsule every OTHER day, based upon the dog's "comfort/relief level".

Well, Wylie has never had/shown any pain/discomfort whatsoever in his knees, so I'll have no real way of knowing which dose is therapeutic for him. For those of you giving Cosequin - which dosage are you giving for maintenance - every day or every other day?
