Why do I need a joint supplement for my dog or cat?

Dogs and cats enter their senior years around age seven, often beginning to develop issues associated with aging. In the early stages, these signs often go unnoticed and, if ignored, can lead to serious problems or chronic conditions. This is why it is so important to support your pet’s health throughout its life.

Getting older for a dog or cat generally means slowing down. You may notice that your pet:

  • Sleeps more
  • Is stiff when getting up
  • Has trouble getting around
  • Has a dull and lifeless coat
  • Is less playful
  • Is lethargic
  • Has a depressed appetite

Using a product such as SeaFlex® will help to support the structural framework of joints and cartilage for ease of movement. SeaFlex® also aids vitality and energy, helping your pet to keep its youthful and playful behaviour – back to how it ‘used to be’.
