A dog that has trouble getting up after sleeping or walks a bit stiffer than before after a walk. These are signs you recognise when your dog is suffering from osteoarthritis. You want to help him, but there is no miracle cure. What you can do is adjust his diet so that his joints are less stressed and he feels better in everyday life.
Osteoarthritis is not just about moving less, but also about what is in the food bowl. Food for dogs with osteoarthritis often contains fewer calories, so your dog does not gain unnecessary weight. Being overweight puts extra pressure on the joints, making symptoms worse faster.
We also consciously choose easily digestible ingredients, such as rice and poultry. These put less strain on the digestive system and ensure that nutrients are absorbed quickly. Some kibbles contain extra omega 3 from fish oil, which helps keep joints supple. You notice it in little things. Think of a dog that does not go to sleep immediately after eating, but lies quietly with you.
You cannot see the effect of the right dog food against osteoarthritis within a day. It starts with small changes. Your dog jumps on the sofa again or walks up the stairs without hesitation. Sometimes you see that the coat becomes shinier, because the food contains more essential fatty acids.
We tailor the ratio of proteins and fats to how much your dog moves. An older dog that is less active has a different energy requirement than a young dog with incipient symptoms. With the right balance, your dog will stay on weight while his muscles remain strong.
Some dogs get support from extra glucosamine or chondroitin in the kibble. These are building blocks for cartilage. Not every dog needs that. We will work with you to see what suits your dog and his symptoms.
In practice, you see many dogs that walk with their owner every day. That is precisely when you notice more quickly if a dog no longer walks so easily. The right dog food for osteoarthritis will ensure that your dog can keep his pace even on longer walks.
We provide food that suits your dog's lifestyle: compact, easy to store and tailored to dogs that are sometimes slower due to fussiness or aging issues. You'll notice the difference when your dog walks out the door again without effort or responds enthusiastically to the outlet.
Not every dog with stiffness needs special food right away. Sometimes losing a few kilos or adjusting the portions already helps. In case of obvious signs of osteoarthritis, such as stiff movements or less desire to play, food aimed at joints can help.
In doubt about your dog's symptoms? In the explanation of joint problems in dogs read what to look out for. Food for dogs with sensitive digestive systems can also sometimes provide relief, as it puts less strain on the intestines.
