How much glucosamine/day does a shetland sheepdog needs?

Hes 4 years old, about 30 pounds, has some kind of difficulty getting up, and the doctor said that the joints on his hind legs are somewhat loose and advised us to get glucosamine for him.





I bought this brand of joint maintenance pills "dancing paws" for him. So hes supposed to take 1 pill a day and it contains together 10mg of glucosamine in a pill. Is that amount enough for his current condition?



Ask the vet who told you that he needed them.





All you have to do is call the vet and ask, they do not charge a fee for asking. Giving to much is just as bad as not giving enough. People on here are not vets and they could give you the wrong information and harm you pet.
