He put me onto another tablet which was basically Glucosamine etc for animals including dogs and horses. It was expensive and I could only buy it through vets so looked at alternatives when I became an OAP.
I found Active Joints by Vets Kitchen. This has the same ingredients as the tablet but in a chicken flavoured syrup you mix in food. A lot easier to give her as she is difficult with tablets.. I get it from Pets at Home and dependent on if its on offer costs £5.00 to £7.50 and a bottle lasts just over a month and is less than a third of the cost of the vets tablet. Been on it now for two years and I can say that she walks a lot better and now she very rarely shows signs that her knee is hurting her as she did when on the tablets.
