Although large dogs grow fast, many worry that calcium will be insufficient. Still, calcium supplementation can only make bones grow faster and more robust, but it is not necessarily helpful for joint health. The diet of Chinese people is generally deficient in calcium. Many people drink milk or take calcium tablets. People often suffer from osteoporosis. This is a problem that requires calcium supplementation. However, if the joints are not good, calcium can’t help much!
Arthritis, other like hip dysplasia, patellar luxation, various joint inflammations, and degenerative joint problems, requires glucosamine and chondroitin. Glucosamine and chondroitin can improve the viscosity of the synovial fluid in bone joints, increase the production of synovial fluid, increase the flexibility, cushioning capacity, and elasticity of joints, and help relieve the pain and stiffness of osteoarthritis and are currently the most suitable for degenerative diseases—supplements for Arthritis.
Therefore, many veterinarians recommend appropriate supplementation for pets with hip dysplasia, dislocated knees, or elderly pets Glucosamine to improve joint discomfort. Also, suppose you are diagnosed with hip dysplasia as a puppy. In that case, calcium supplementation will make bones grow faster than muscles, thereby changing the structure of the hip joint and causing degenerative arthritis over time.
If you are not sure whether your baby is calcium deficient or has joint degeneration, it is recommended to ask a veterinarian to check first and then choose nutritional supplements so as not to spend money but not achieve the effect. !
