    Yes, it can be beneficial to feed your dog a glucosamine supplement if they are experiencing joint pain. Glucosamine is a naturally occurring substance that is important for the health and function of joints. It can help reduce inflammation, improve joint mobility, and provide pain relief for dogs with arthritis or other joint problems. It’s always a good idea to consult with your veterinarian before giving your dog any kind of supplement. They can help determine the appropriate dose for your dog based on their size, age, and overall health, and make sure that the supplement https://www.vitamintree.ca/Category/SUPPLEMENTS/16 doesn’t interact with any medications they may be taking.

    It’s not uncommon for dogs on high-quality, nutrient-dense diets to experience more frequent and smaller stools. This is because their digestive systems are able to extract more nutrients from the food and there’s less waste to excrete. The probiotics and flaxseed in your dog’s food may also contribute to the increase in bowel movements.

    When switching to a lower calorie diet, it’s important to make the transition gradually to avoid digestive upset. I would recommend talking to your veterinarian to determine the best diet and feeding plan for your dog based on her unique needs and health status. They may also be able to recommend a lower calorie, high-quality food that is available at PetCo or PetSmart. Some brands to consider include Royal Canin, Hill’s Science Diet, and Merrick.

    It’s also important to keep in mind that weight loss should be slow and steady, at a rate of about 1-2% of your dog’s body weight per week. This allows your dog’s body to adjust and helps to prevent any health complications that can arise from rapid weight loss.
