FEEDING GUIDE
Because Flint River Ranch premium dog food formulas are nutrient-dense, you should feed 20%-25% less than regular dog foods. Each serving delivers maximum nutrition without unnecessary fillers, so you'll also notice a lower stool volume and less clean-up.
It's best to introduce Flint River Ranch Super Premium foods by mixing with your dog's current food and increasing the amount of Flint River Ranch over several days. It will take time for your dog to adjust to the rich, easy to digest, all natural quality. A sudden change in any food source may be a shock to your dog's digestive system. You may notice loose stool. If so, reduce the amount being fed until your dog adjusts.
Feed your dog once or twice a day unless the breed is prone to bloating or excessive weight gain (obesity), in which case we recommend feeding three smaller meals throughout the day. Food requirements vary depending on climate, breed of dog and exercise activity. Feed an amount that will maintain your dog's weight, and make sure to always have fresh water available.

CHONDROITIN SULFATE A & C - GLUCOSAMINE
The most common problems dogs encounter as they age include osteoarhritis, rheumatism, schleroderma and arthritic diseases. Genetic disorders include Elbow Dysplaysia, Herniated Disc, Myasthenia Gravis, Degenerative Myelopathy, Osteochondritis Dissecans, Panosteitis and Leg-Calve Perthes Disease. Signs include pain, lameness, reluctance to climb stairs, stiffness, joint distortion, wobbly and uncoordinated gait.
Different practitioners favor different combinations of treatment from herbs, homeopathic preparations, nutrition, acupuncture, chiropractic therapy, surgery and medication to help manage the pain and inflammation. Emphasis should be on a good, diagnostic work-up before initiating any treatment. Check with your Veterinarian.
Management of the patient's pain and stiffness is essentially management of the arthritis, as nothing can be done to correct the underlying problems of joint laxity or to reverse the degeneration of the bones. On the other hand, alleviating the inflammation and pain of arthritis without negative side effects is often enough to restore function to the joint and a meaningful quality of life.
Cartilage-derived mucopolysaccharides as glucosamine and chondroitin sulfates A and C have been found helpful in relieving inflammation and may even reverse the degenerative process in some dogs. It does this by nourishing the cartilage and increasing viscosity of the synovial fluid - the joint's lubricating system - thereby reducing friction and pain. Glucosamine and chondroitin sulfates attract fluid into the joint's cartilage system and help the body repair damaged joints while keeping the cartilage destroying enzymes under control - equal or better results than anti-inflammatory drugs. Mucopolysaccharides are being prescribed increasingly by conventional as well as holistic veterinarians. In tablet form of 150 mg - 100 tablets can be extremely expensive.
Along this line - Flint River Ranch has been active in research on a natural source of Chondroitin Sulfate and Glucosamine (patient pending) - that stimulate the immune system and acts as an angiogenesis inhibitor - may help improve joint flexibility and increase mobility and support of healthy joints.
Currently, Flint River Ranch offers Chondroitin Sulfate and Glucosamine products in two forms:
- Jubilee Wafer: An oven-baked dog health treat in wafer biscuit shape with 140 mg per biscuit. (about 750 mg per cup).
- Senior Plus: An oven-baked dog health food formulated with a wholesome and rich source of Glucosamine and Chondroitin (250 mg/cup Glucosamine and 100 mg/cup Chondroitin).
There's no need to wait for the symptoms of arthritis or cartilage damage in the knee or elbow joints — ensure your mature, inactive, or overweight dogs maintain healthy and pain-free lifestyles by supplementing their regular diet with Jubilee Wafers!
