Senior PLUS Kibble Dog Food

Senior PLUS Dog Food

With a patented process, our Flint River Ranch Senior and Mature Adult Oven-baked Kibble has been formulated with a wholesome and rich source of Glucosamine and Chondroitin Sulfate that helps maintain healthy joint cartilage in older, mature dogs.

This is a functional food, rather than the traditional oral pill form, that may serve to inhibit cartilage degradation by helping to stimulate the body's ability to produce more GAG'S (glycosaminoglycans). The cartilage make up of the Senior PLUS formula may help with the hydration of joints because of the polyanionic characteristics, thus the lubrication needed in joints for proper function. It is not a substitute for professional treatment, but a supportive means to assist with canine discomfort.

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-CalvePerthes 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 150 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 Glucos~mine and 100 mg/cup Chondroitin).
