Dog Hip Arthritis

I had a Saint Bernard named Collie, who loved to play. Her favourite outing was the visit to the beach, where she ran in the sand, and splashed around in the water for hours together. As she grew older, we noticed that she did not like to go for her walks, and began to drag her rare legs together while walking. The vet said she had early symptoms of CHS, and if neglected, it would develop into dog hip arthritis. He recommended adding Glucosamine to her diet. It worked wonders on Collie. She was much more at ease and Glucosamine was a stable part of her diet.
