My 8yr old dog has arthritis, would it be safe to give her Glucosmine tabs that you can buy from Health Shops?

Hi there, I buy animal Glucosamine it isn't too pricey, I get it from Healthspan, link below, Holland and Barratt may do animal supplements as well so also worth a try.

Has anybody actually noticed a big inprovement though after giving their dogs glucosamine. Big enough to say YES IF DEFINATELY IS WORKING.

I'd like to bet glucosamine was tested on dogs and other animals long before it came on the market for us.
I give my staffie it and I do believe he has shown a marked improvement over the past few months, I know I have but I use the one that has the chondroiting in with it.

Here is a link about using glucosamine for dogs, at the end it says you need a product with ascorbic acid to assist with the uptake...and they say it works.
