Keeping dogs active, mobile and pain free Naturally. Our unique formula combines a variety of natural nutrients to keep dogs active, mobile and pain free. The cornerstone nutrients, Chondroitin & Glucosamine HCL, have demonstrated great success in naturally conditioning joints and enhancing comfort. Secondary nutrients like vitamin C, vitamin E, copper, zinc, selenium, manganese and numerous amino acids have been added for their enzymatic benefits and to assist in the transportation of Chondroitin & Glucosamine to aching hips and joints. Vitamin C alone has been extensively used by many dog owners to help alleviate the pain and discomfort associated with canine hip displasia.Hips and Joints get damaged over time In normal joints the tips of the bones are soft and spongy and are floating in a gel like fluid which acts as a cushion, keeping bone from touching bone. As dogs age, or if they excecise a lot, that cushion gets thinner and thinner. When the bones get close enough, or touch, the result is pain and discomfort which results in loss of mobility and stiffness. That's where Glucosamine HCL and Chondroitin come into play. These nutrients help condition and rebuild worn, aching joints. Easy Feeding, Delicious and Low in Fat Dogs don't like pills and powders. The conditioning nutrients in Hip Action are mixed into a tasty, all natural base of real beef, durum wheat flour, fructose, apple, carrot and canola oil. Hip Action contains no preservatives and is naturally low in fat. Most important, dogs love the taste The resealable bag keeps a 1 2 week supply of morsels fresh and delicious. Getting Results, Hip Action Morsels will benefit most dogs. The degree of discomfort varies from dog to dog as does the ability to provide relief. Increased comfort is typically achieved in 4 6 weeks of daily feeding. Owners are urged to pay close attention to their dog's condition because improvement in mobility is gradual. Getting the desired results may involve varying the amounts that are fed daily. Once the right amount has been established, dogs can remain active, healthy and happy.What is Glucosamine Glucosamine HCl is an integral building block of joints. Glucosamine is composed of glucose and the amino acid glutamine. Glucosamine is a substance that the body uses to build up cartilage and keep joints hydrated and flexible. Glucosamine HCl provides the raw material your dog's body needs to produce glycosaminoglycans, which are required to produce healty new cartilage. What is canine arthritis Canine arthritis is caused in part by the breakdown of joint cartilage. Cartilage is the spongy, cushiony, material found between joints and bones. When this cushion breaks down, the bones begin to rub against each other, causing stiffness and pain. It is known that canine arthritis occurs in part because not enough cartilage is produced to counteract the cartilage breakdown. The result is a thinner and thinner cusion between bones and joints. How does glucosamine help canine arthritis and hip displasia Glucosamine stimulates cartilage cells (chondrocytes) to synthesize glycosaminoglycans and proteoglycans which in combination with collagen, and water make up the large part of cartilage. Glucosamine also helps retain water in the joints, this acts like a lubricant which keeps bones floating in the joint without actually making contact. Taking extra Glucosamine HCl helps your dog's body restore cartilage production and results in more flexible, nourished joints. Your dog will notice the difference. When taken in combination with an additive like Chondroitin, the effects can be remarkable Feeding Instructions Feed you dog Zuke's Hip Action morsels according to the table below. A good idea is to supplement their meal(s) with a the proper Hip Action dose. Supplementing your dogs diet regularly with Hip Action is important because the Chondroitin and Glucosamine HCl in Hip Action condition your dog's hips and joints. Zuke's Hip Action isn't a 'quick fix' for hip displasia and joint problems, but if you use it everyday you will see results. Please remember that the increase in comfort and mobility will be incremental over time. Results are usually not seen until after at least 3 weeks of daily treatment. In most cases the effects will be noticeable after 4 6 weeks.
