RE: JOINT SUPPLEMENTS

Yes they will. I've used 2-3 different brands over the last couple of years
for my older (creaky) Chesapeak Bay Retriever. The problem is finding a
supplement that isn't in an alfalfa base.  I did recently switch to
Corta-flx liquid for her, using the horse supplement but I have ordered
their liver flavored liquid dog supplement. I've been using using Corta-flx
powder on my horse for about 9 months. She's doing fine in the hocks. When I
rescued her she was diagnosed as having arthritic changes in her hocks. It
took a series of Legend shots to really turn her around and keeping her on a
good supplement since then seems to be working.
