larp Posted October 16, 2013 Report Share Posted October 16, 2013 Yumove best on the market. i used it on 13 year old springer there was no signs of improvement . I now use joint aid and found that's a lot better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darren m Posted October 17, 2013 Report Share Posted October 17, 2013 i, ve used both i used a tub of yumove first with no change , then went straight onto joint aid and saw an improvement within a week i,m guessing it was the joint aid that helped , but i didnt give it a gap between the two supplements , so still no 100% sure. if i use it again i,ll go joint aid first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul1966 Posted October 17, 2013 Report Share Posted October 17, 2013 have a look at synflex for pets, my lab is nearly ten so a bit stiff now, this seems to be helping her a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotslad Posted October 17, 2013 Report Share Posted October 17, 2013 I've heard pouring a drop/spoonful of cod liver oil can help. Anyone tried it? Wot sort off price are the supplements? My lab's not old yet but gettin there and he does work hard so might be worth it if it prolongs his working life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darren m Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 yea cod liver oil is used and is cheap , we use it on the horses , defo worth a try i know a vet who uses that and joint aid just as a procaution in her dogs during the shooting season and they are not old joint aid for the smallest pack was i think about £13. look on amazon they had a good deal a few months ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve_b_wales Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 I am using Yumove on my 17 year old Jack Russell bitch, after trying a 'cheaper' brand that I bought via Ebay. The dog's back legs are very stiff and she has problems getting up and down steps etc. I'm on the 4th week of trying Yumove and can't say that it's helped her any better that the other brand.

stuart21 Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 Will these supplements help with muscle/tendon sprain or are they purely for joints? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Update: I've just ordered 500g of JointAid for £17.50. Hopefully, it will help my dog and ease any discomfort that she's experiencing.

Salop Matt Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 We have switched between both Youmove and Joint Aid but have settled on Youmove as our preffered product. We used some sample packs of Joint aid as and when we got it but never rated it. We buy Youmove for our two terriers and the inlaws do also for there retreiver with joint problems.

Hector Vector Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 Try buying Glucosamine (1000mg tablets) and Omega 3 (1000mg) from Healthspan. Much cheaper than dog-specific products and do the same job (my vet told me so). I also take them because I have arthritis in my hands (specifically thumb joints) and it does help.
