Kay,
That is a good question.? I have found that even my OFA Good dogs will slow 
down and get gimpy as they age.? Don't we all?, LOL!? I use the K-9 Liquid 
Health and start at about age 5 or 6, depending on the activity level.? Dogs 
that are doing herding or jumping activities start earlier.??It has been proven 
that liquids are far more absorbable in dogs that pills or powders.? This is 
why I use the liquid health.? I have a?9 yr old and an 10 yr old here that 
still act like puppies when they play and work.??If they do play too hard and 
get sore, they recover quickly?because they?have NO arthritis.? I do believe in 
prevention and think this regimine has helped prevent chronic problems.? I am 
open to other suggestions as well so hope folks will post to the?List what 
they?supplement.
Laura?

I am curious as to what brands of Glucosamine, MSM & Chondroitin supplements, 
listers have found best. ?I have all my dogs on these supplements along with 
others, as they are very physically active either with jumping exercises in 
obedience and rally and or herding. ?I have used ?either K-9 ?Liquid Health 
Arthritis & Joint Formula or SyoviG3 soft chews. ?These dogs are all OFA hips 
and elbows and I just use it as a preventative as they are so active. ?Also, if 
you used this type of supplementation, at what age do you start?
