On how long a tub lasts, and what "high strength" is not telling you

Ninety bites is a very different length of supply for a terrier and for a labrador, because the daily amount swings across that whole range with the dog's weight. More to the point, no milligram figures have been supplied for the glucosamine, the chondroitin or the MSM, so there is nothing here you can compare strength-for-strength against another brand, despite the words on the front. These are a food supplement, not a medicine: a dog that has gone suddenly lame, or is struggling on stairs it managed last month, needs a vet before it needs a tub of anything.

Why we chose it

Ninety is the size that turns a joint supplement into a habit instead of a trial. These things ask to be given every day for weeks before anyone can fairly judge them, and a small tub runs out long before that point. That is the only reason we buy this size rather than the little one.

— Matt, founder

Specifications

Brand: Vetzyme

Full description

Almost nobody knows what their dog weighs. It gets weighed at the vet, once a year, and the figure is gone by the time you reach the car park — which is awkward here, because every instruction Vetzyme give for these is set in kilograms and nothing else. Before you buy a joint supplement it is worth finding out the number, or the packet cannot tell you anything useful.

Vetzyme's stated aim for these is maintaining supple, mobile joints rather than fixing stiff ones, and they name three things doing the work. Fish oil supplies omega 3. Glucosamine and chondroitin are amino sugars, which Vetzyme link to the formation and upkeep of cartilage, tendons and ligaments. MSM is rich in organic sulphur, which they connect to elasticity and healthy connective tissue. The tub holds 90 bites and Vetzyme's own daily figures run from 0.5 of a bite for a dog of 5 to 21kg, through 1 bite at 22 to 33kg and 1.5 bites at 34 to 46kg, to 2 bites above that.

On how long a tub lasts, and what "high strength" is not telling you. Ninety bites is a very different length of supply for a terrier and for a labrador, because the daily amount swings across that whole range with the dog's weight. More to the point, no milligram figures have been supplied for the glucosamine, the chondroitin or the MSM, so there is nothing here you can compare strength-for-strength against another brand, despite the words on the front. These are a food supplement, not a medicine: a dog that has gone suddenly lame, or is struggling on stairs it managed last month, needs a vet before it needs a tub of anything.

Who it's for: owners of a dog that is slowing down — later to get up, slower on the stairs — who want a daily supplement they can keep going with, and owners of a big or heavy-framed dog who would rather start before the signs arrive.
