Has your dog or cat been a little slower to get up lately? 🐾
It might look like "just slowing down with age" — but those small changes could be early signs of joint discomfort. And here's the thing: pets are incredibly good at hiding pain. By the time you notice them favouring a leg or hesitating to jump onto the couch, they've likely been uncomfortable for a while.
As the body ages, it naturally produces less glucosamine — the building block that keeps joints healthy and cushioned. That's true for dogs AND cats.
Common signs to watch for:
🔹 Stiffness when getting up after a rest
🔹 Laying down more than usual
🔹 Reluctance to play, run, or jump
🔹 Changes in appetite (discomfort when walking to their food bowl)
🔹 Slipping on floors or favouring a leg
If you've noticed any of these signs in your pet, it doesn't have to stay this way. We carry veterinary-exclusive hip and joint supplements that are properly dosed, vet-tested, and easy to give. We have different forms available, so you can choose the form your pet loves most:
🔹 Liquid – mixes right into their food
🔹 Soft chewable treats – available in different sizes and shapes
🔹 Flavoured treats – a tasty hard-treat option
Curious which option suits your pet most? Drop by, call or text us and ask our team about getting them started. We'd love to help them feel their best! 🐶🐱
