Riley had his health check today the vet was really pleased with him 😀she said his teeth 🦷 were great to say he is 9 although we brush them twice a week and he has plaque off on his food. The only thing she said was that when she was checking his hips he wasn’t too keen on her extending his left back leg and that was also mentioned at his last health check last year. She says it’s not a issue yet but to keep an eye on him and if we feel he is in a bit of pain they could prescribe pain relief for him.🙈 He has a joint supplement on his food at night he has been having it for a couple of years - she said that was good and their was nothing else we needed to do at the moment other than giving him plenty of exercise.
I just wondered if you guys could think of anything else I could add ? or am I just stressing myself about it .

Beau was on Arthriaid after his cruciate op as he could have developed arthritis it had chondroitin in it , chantel l swore by it and he was very lucky not to develop it specially after doing both legs x

I have had a look into it and it gets some really good reviews 😀so I have ordered the liquid from Amazon. I’m presuming I can use it with his other joint tablets. Thanks scallywag x

Will do 😀after doing a bit of research it does actually state that you can have too much glucosamine and it can effect your blood sugar- so I’m going to spk with the vet first.

Seems like you are looking after Riley well chantel. I bought Yumove tablets for Kobi and he wouldn't take them, not even hidden in his food. I sold them on eBay. I might try some liquid, perhaps he will have that.

I give Jasper Yumove, and he takes them no problem, but I also got him some green lipped mussels capsules, he doesn't like those so I have to shove them down his throat.
I don't like to give him both together as I read you can end up giving too much so I alternate them, once they have gone I'll just stick with Yumove.

Riley’s joint supplement arrived today so I called the vet to confirm whether he could have both supplements and he can but the joint tablets I get from the vets do not contain omega but the first issue I received did so I think that the vet has been giving me the wrong ones 🙈so when Riley has finished the present tablets and the omega liquid I’m going to swop to the joint and mobility + omega and glucosamine ones and that way he will only need to take one supplement. I’m hoping that he will not take a dislike to the liquid it says it’s caramel flavour 😋watch this space.
