Zuke's Hip Action - Beef is formulated to help treat and prevent the common symptoms associated with canine hip and joint problems such as displasia, arthritis and stiffness. This unique formula combines a variety of natural nutrients to keep dogs active, mobile and pain free. The cornerstone nutrients, Chondroitin & Glucosamine HCL, have demonstrated great success in naturally conditioning joints and enhancing comfort. Secondary nutrients like vitamin C, vitamin E, copper, zinc, selenium, manganese and numerous amino acids have been added for their enzymatic benefits and to assist in the transportation of Chondroitin & Glucosamine to aching hips and joints. Vitamin C alone has been extensively used by many dog owners to help alleviate the pain and discomfort associated with canine hip displasia.
In normal joints the tips of the bones are soft and spongy and are floating in a gel-like fluid which acts as a cushion, keeping bone from touching bone. As dogs age, or if they excecise a lot, that cushion gets thinner and thinner. When the bones get close enough, or touch, the result is pain and discomfort which results in loss of mobility and stiffness. That's where Glucosamine HCl and Chondroitin come into play. These nutrients help condition and rebuild worn, aching joints.
Dogs don't like pills and powders. The conditioning nutrients in Zuke's Hip Action - Beef are mixed into a tasty, all-natural base of real beef, durum wheat flour, fructose, apple, carrot and canola oil. Zuke's Hip Action - Beef contains no preservatives and is naturally low in fat. Most important, dogs love the taste! The resealable bag keeps a 1 - 2 week supply of morsels fresh and delicious.
The degree of discomfort varies from dog to dog as does the ability to provide relief. Increased comfort is typically achieved in 4 - 6 weeks of daily feeding. Owners are urged to pay close attention to their dog's condition because improvement in mobility is gradual. Getting the desired results may involve varying the amounts that are fed daily. See feeding instructions. Once the right amount has been established, dogs can remain active, healthy and happy.
