I have an 11 year old Aussie. She has been on dasoquin for a while but recently just totally stopped eating it. Wont eat it if we hide in a snack or even in her food. So, now i need to look for new glucosamine supplement that she'll eat. Just wondering what you guys are feeding to your furry old buddies?

We have a 12 year old Gordon Setter that was having so much trouble getting around it was painful to watch. Our vet we suggested we try a supplement called Synovi G4. He said he had gotten some reports of miraculous recovery while others said it did not help a bit - but it was worth a try. About 30 days after giving her one daily the change was remarkable. She is still slow but shows no sign of pain when getting up - she jumps up on the couch again and even runs around the yard a bit.

These seem to have really helped my 11 yr old lab, and they smell like sweet feed for horses. Occasionally my 1 yr old son will go in and try to eat one!
If they are really bad, Rimadyl/Carprofen seems to help. My dog was on it for around 6 months, we saw big improvements and then stopped due to difficulty getting refills, with none of his old symptoms reappearing.
