Equine Cosequin Use in Dogs

[Guest guest]

Has anyone used the equine Cosequin for OA supplements in canines?

Our clinic has a client who would like to use the Equine supplement for his big

dog becuase his horse is on it and he thinks it will be more cost effective to

use.

I think in a quick read of the labels the Glucosamine/Chondroitin ratio in the

equine supplement vs the canine is different.

Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

I have used it with my 80lb dog for about 8 months now with no issue. He's

incredibly picky and hard to pill, so I was looking for a powder form for him.

I did a lot of research prior to starting him on it and couldn't find a good

reason not to. He gets frequent blood monitoring for other reasons and hasn't

had any changes there.
