Disguise the capsule or tablet in a pill-hiding treat like Pinchers or Pinchers XL. Top the chew or tablet with a little peanut butter, cheese, or their favorite soft treat. Break into smaller pieces and mix with food: dry or canned food, soaked kibble, a pinch of grated cheese, etc. Add a few favorite dry, crumbly treats to the package and shake it all up—this coats the chews with a flavor/smell your pet already knows and loves. If you're still struggling to get your dog to take their joint, dental, or calming supplement, try this fun trick from Spirit Dog Training! Break into small pieces and feed a little bit per meal, slowly working up to the full dosage. Use those foods (if they're cat-friendly) to mask the taste or smell of the supplement you're giving them. Experiment with different formats.

Joint supplements are available as tablets, capsules, as a liquid, and in certain dog foods. You can buy joint supplements from our online PDSA Pet Store. Joint supplements are safe to use alongside most other medications. Your vet may prescribe joint supplements for your dog if they’ve suffered a joint problem in the past. Joint supplements are thought to work by: Natural anti-inflammatory action - to soothe stiff joints. Keep joint fluid healthy - to ease movement. Feed cartilage - to keep it strong and smooth. Joint supplements help some dogs, but not all - speak to your vet for more information. They are safe to use alongside other common arthritis medicines such as anti-inflammatories and pain relief medicines.
