PRODUCT SPOTLIGHT #4
If your dog is slowing down, struggling with stairs or hesitating to jump in the car, you know something isn't right. Joint and mobility issues are a leading cause of shortened lifespan, and finding a supplement that truly helps can be frustrating. That's why my colleague, integrated veterinarian Dr Peter Dobias, with more than 35 years of experience, created Joint Powder, the world's first fermented joint supplement for dogs. Thanks to a proprietary dual stage fermentation process, it is seven to 10 times more bioavailable than conventional supplements, delivering more effective support where your dog needs it most. Made with 13 human grade natural and organic ingredients, Joint Powder supports joint comfort, flexibility, cartilage repair, bone health and tendon function. So a single formula can replace three to five separate products and lower your costs. It's designed for every life stage, helping puppies and young dogs develop strong ligaments and joints and supporting a healthy inflammatory response in adult and senior dogs. It comes in recyclable glass and is never sourced from China. Give your dog the chance to move with joy again.
