Benefits of ARTHRIX for Dogs and Cats

ARTHRIX for Dogs and Cats is a chewable nutritious supplement intended for the long-term maintenance of joint health. It is designed to help older animals or those with joint injuries to live a happier life by improving the lubrication needed for proper joint functioning. It will:

• Help to lubricate joints;
• Improve cellular nutrient absorption;
• Reduce inflammation of joints;
• Restore the growth of cartilage;
• Inhibit the enzymatic break down of cartilage.

The essential nutrients contained in ARTHRIX for Dogs and Cats have been carefully formulated in chewable tablet form. ARTHRIX for Dogs and Cats is natural (not a drug), so offering it in conjunction with other arthritis medication prescribed by your veterinarian will not be a problem. ARTHRIX is not a substitute for treatment, but a supportive means to assist with canine and feline age-related discomforts.

Common Joint Problems in Pets

Hip Dysplasia - A malformation of the joints causing arthritis and painful joints. More information can be found by clicking on our hip dysplasia page: CLICK HERE

Disc Disease - Collapsed disc spaces and bony formations under the disc spaces causing back pain.

Osteoarthritis - A degenerative disease of knees, hip bones or elbows - damaged cartilage occurs in these joints secondary to dislocating knee caps, torn ligaments within the knee, hereditary or congenital malformations of the knees, elbows or trauma. Arthritis stems from the degradation of the cartilage within a joint. Cartilage acting as a buffer between bones in a joint and breakdown of cartilage can reduce the efficiency of the functions of the joint. Mild arthritis is uncomfortable. Severe arthritis, which can progress to bone on bone contact if the cartilage damage is extensive, is very painful. Diagnosing osteoarthritis should be done by a qualified veterinarian.

Symptoms of osteoarthritis include:

• Stiffness in moving joints - Favoring a limb
• Difficulty in rising - Hesitancy to jump
• Decreased activity level and lethargy

There is no need to wait for the symptoms of any of the above conditions to become pronounced to start using ARTHRIX for Dogs and Cats because it works as a great preventative. Ideally the supplementation of your pet's diet is started in young pets, especially if the breed is known to have a predisposition to hip dysplasia or arthritis. Any dog or cat that has experienced a joint injury will also benefit from ARTHRIX.

Since its introduction, many pet owners
have found relief for their suffering dog or cat.
