Overview
In healthy dogs, maintenance dosage can be used for long-term joint support. Reduce the maintenance level to every-other-day dosing after consistent improvement has been established. The easiest way to guarantee that your pet gets the entire amount is to administer the product with moist or wet meals. Cut the tablets into little pieces and mix them in with your dog's food. The initial dose time is indicated to be 4 to 6 weeks. However, some dogs may respond more rapidly. If this happens, you may want to reduce the dose to maintenance levels.
