Nothing wrong with glucosamine in liquid form for my dog? A problem with the way his digested, something like that? o and what is "optimsm"
Not at all! We give our dogs 11 and 12 I think 500mg capsules for their joints and bones. Your idea of the liquid is very good! The only problems we have experienced the stools are a bit "loose "..??? Good idea! We must open the capsules and sprinkle on food or in the case of large dog, put the full cap in his throat and make sure he swallows it.
The liquid should be fine so long as it is formulated for dogs and your vet. For the second issue of "optimsm" is the trade name. MSM is methylsulfonylmethane, a natural source of sulfur and an ingredient in supplements often also common.
Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) contains sulfur in a form the body can readily use. Sulfur is necessary for the production of collagen, glucosamine, chondroitin and some antioxidants - which are all essential for healthy cartilage and overall joint health.
I read that supposedly liquid form is better absorbed
