Give your pet the right joint care at every stage of their lives with NaturVet joint care supplements. Level 1 Maintenance Care provides proactive joint support for young pets before issues arise. Level 2 Moderate Care helps adult pets meet joint challenges, while Level 3 Advanced Joint Care helps senior and joint-compromised dogs get the extra support they need. There’s even a Hemp Joint Topical Spray for relief.
Level 1 Maintenance Joint Care
The Level 1 Glucosamine DS formula uses glucosamine and chondroitin to help maintain healthy cartilage and joint function. Added antioxidants help prevent cellular damage by protecting against harmful free radicals. Give this formula as a preventative and help set your best friend up for a lifetime of healthy activity.
Level 2 Moderate Joint Care
Level 2 Glucosamine DS Plus formulas with or without hemp seed incorporate glucosamine, chondroitin and MSM to support connective tissue and cartilage and help maintain good joint lubrication and movement in adult pets. Added antioxidants help prevent cellular damage by protecting against harmful free radicals. Recommended for adult pets, including large breeds and overweight pets.
Advanced Joint Care
ArthriSoothe-GOLD is great for seniors and those recovering from joint injuries or surgery. It has glucosamine, chondroitin, MSM, green lipped mussel, boswellia and yucca for joint, cartilage and connective tissue support. The antioxidants help curb free radical damage, too. Try Hemp Advanced Joint Health with collagen for added support or non-GMO Senior Advanced Joint Health for older pets.
Aches and Discomfort
Help alleviate joint pain and stiffness with these targeted formulas. The Aches & Discomfort supplement uses glucosamine, yucca, white willow bark, boswellia and L-tryptophan to provide relief from within, while the Hemp Joint Topical Spray uses hemp seed, ginger, peppermint, cinnamon and lavender to soothe, cool and relax on contact. Use separately or together for total relief.

What's the difference between level 1 and level 2? My dog is 15 years old and just under 8 lbs. I need 500 mg dosage. He has very few teeth, so the chewy ones are good.
Answer by • Aug 18, 2018
Level 1 (maintenance care) is recommended to be used as a preventative measure to help maintain normal healthy cartilage and joint function in active dogs. Typically works great for younger dogs (over the age of 12 weeks), prior to visible signs of joint care. Level 2 (moderate care) is recommended for adult dogs, including large breed and overweight dogs to support healthy hip and joint function. Contains MSM for connective tissue support while providing antioxidants to help remove damaging free radicals.
Do these contain chicken? My dog is allergic.
Answer by • Jun 16, 2019
The glucosamine found in this supplement is derived from chicken.
How much glucosamine is in it
Answer by • Jan 20, 2018
There's 500 milligrams of Glucosamine in these chews.
My old bubba likes these and they have everything the vet recommended for her, with much better ingredients and specs than the $80 product they mentioned. I only wish they were a lot bigger, to give as a treat. Side note, they intensely smell like chocolate, which concerned me at first, but there is no chocolate in them.

Glucosamine
The supplements have been given to our two goldens, 10 months old and 8 years old as this product states it’s for all life stages. Since they’re large breeds, our vet recommended glucosamine to be given. It hasn’t been a full month to see if there’s been any added benefit, but neither of our dogs have shown any prior issues with their mobility, which is why we selected level 1 for maintenance. They both eat the chew as if it were a treat and don’t mind taking it.

Good treat
My senior pup loves this treat and it has helped his arthritis in his hips - he is 15. He eats them with ease and he moves around easier after eating them. The price is fair and they really make his walking better.

Glucosamine chews
I have two 40# dogs. They really like these. I like the ease of their size and that they are chewable. Only down is that you have to give multiple for dose, wish they were larger

Not for sensitive stomachs
My dog has used naturvet allergy aids for years with great success. She is now 12 and showing some signs of arthritis. Unfortunately these gave her diarrhea so we weren't able to continue using them. Other brands of glucosamine have had this effect too, but not as severe. 2 stars though bc naturvet is a great brand and I think she just can't take this type of supplement in general.

Vitamin for dogs
I got my first package at a local store then found chewy carries it. I did notice that the chews from chewy were a slightly different color, but doesn’t seem to affect effectiveness, quality, or taste for my pup.
