Dasuquin



Oh Happy Day!

I hope everyone has been enjoying their week. I know I have. We have been quite busy at the office so I have been very entertained with all the comings and goings of pets and their people. I have the privilege of meeting some great individuals, what a lucky kitty I am! One thing that I have noticed recently is that many of the pets coming in have been getting up there in age and are starting to show some joint stiffness. Now, I know I did touch on this a tiny bit last week with discussing Ascenta and how it is great for joint health but, I have another product that will help as well! Dasuquin!

Now, here is some information from Nutramax (the company that makes Dasuquin)…

“Just like humans, your dog’s (and cat’s) joints are formed where two bones meet. The ends of the bones are cushioned by cartilage, a slippery and tough tissue produced and maintained by its own specialized cells. The cartilage, joint fluid, and underlying bone work together like a shock absorber allowing flexible joint function. Cartilage lacks a direct blood supply, so nutrients must pass into the cartilage from surrounding tissue. These nutrients sustain cartilage cells and provide the components necessary to maintain a healthy cartilage structure…”

Dasuquin is a wonderful joint health supplement for pets. It contains ASU (avocado/soybean unsaponifiables, Glucosamine, Chondroitin Sulfate and decaffeinated tea. These are all superb ingredients; here is what they do…
  • ASU is collected from avocados and soybeans. ASU helps protect cartilage and supports joint function.
  • Glucosamine and Chondroitin Sulfate together aid in blocking enzymes in joints that break down cartilage.
  •  Decaffeinated tea is rich in antioxidants which overall is a great thing!
This great joint support has a formula for both cats and dogs! For an added bonus for us marvelous felines, it also helps maintain urinary bladder health. The contents of the Dasuquin support the bladders protective wall that prevents urine and waste from seeping into and affecting the inner lining. So, all of you kitties out there that have constant urinary issues, have your human discuss starting you on Dasuquin with the doctors here at SAH.

If you are noticing a change in your pet’s mobility and joint discomfort, it may be time to add Dasuquin into the mix! Be sure to chat with Dr. Ellis or Dr. Bentley at your pet’s next visit to get their recommendations! And as always, my girls are here for support too!

So long!
