One of the most happening things right now in joint care for dogs is Glucosamine.

Athletes and joint pain sufferers have been long extolling the virtues of glucosamine to keep joints healthy, and many people take it as a preventative measure.

But what is it? It is an amino sugar, usually produced from fermenting grains such as corn or wheat.

Glucosamine's anti-inflammatory properties and ability to prevent the manufacture of cartilage-damaging substances has made it a widely used, unregulated remedy for joint proglems.

Since joint health is essential to their health, there are numerous products available containing glucosamine for dogs.

PNP is the maker of some fabulous products that contain Glucosamine and Chondritin (another great tool in the fight against joint damage) in an easily chewed liver tasting tablet that your dog is sure to enjoy.

This product is specially formulated to work against moderate and advanced joint conditions, and at the same time, it isn't harmful to major organs like the liver and kidneys. It has many antioxidant properties, as well.

Health Baker has started producing a product called Healthy Baker Glucosamine Treats for Dogs. This is an all natural garlic flavored dog biscuit that your pet will surely love. You will love it too because it is high in protein, low in fat, and rich in Perna canaliculus (green-lipped mussel) which produces natural glycosaminoglycans.
