| How effective is Glucosamine & Chondroiton that is put into kibble by manufacturer ? I hope it is ok to ask since this is an Airedale Terrier question . My Angus has Arthritis and he also has a very sensitive tummy so he cannot handle many supplements . So I got him a new food that has what is referred to as naturally occurring Glucosamine & Chondroiton . These are the amounts .. Glucosamine (naturally occurring)* 750 mg/kg Minimum Chondroitin Sulfate (naturally occurring)* 750 mg/kg Minimum Would this amount be per cup ? He gets 3 cups per day of kibble .. I guess I have to include a pic of my sweetie ... DSC00797 (2).JPG |

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | He is a cutie! From what I know, the tests on both dogs and humans regarding the efficacy of both these supplements are inconclusive, at best. The amount given is per kg, not per cup.

Thank you .. So I guess it can't hurt that it is included in the food but may not be all that helpful ..I'll see what I can find for pain management instead . | |
