Why It Matters

Large breed dogs like Bullmastiffs and Boerboels carry more weight on their joints, making them more prone to stiffness, inflammation, and arthritis as they age.
Early support = better mobility, less pain, and a longer active life.

What Supplements Help?

Glucosamine + Chondroitin: Helps protect joint cartilage and reduce inflammation (From 12

months old)

Omega-3 Oil: Fights inflammation, improves mobility, supports heart health (Any age - especially with arthritis)

Green-lipped Mussel / MSM: Natural anti-inflammatories for extra flexibility (As needed, vet-guided)

Pro Tip: For dogs with arthritis or chronic joint issues, a high-quality Omega-3 oil paired with a joint supplement isn’t just helpful, it’s essential.

Early Signs of Joint Stress

• Slower to rise or lie down
• Limping after exercise
• Reluctant to jump or climb
• Morning stiffness
• Less interest in walks or play

Vet-Approved Joint Care Tips

• Use supplements proactively, not reactively
• Keep your dog at a healthy weight to reduce pressure on joints
• Provide regular low-impact exercise (walks, swimming, gentle play)
• Monitor and record changes in movement and mood
