We think Finnigan has a chicken intolerance because of some digestive problems he had. The vet had us switch to a food that did not have chicken and he's been fine ever since. It could have been another ingredient in his food though so we really don't know for sure that chicken is the problem, still, I avoid it just to be on the safe side. We buy glucosamine chewable tablets called 21st Century K-9 Maximum Joint Formula. They sell them at Petsmart and other pet stores. I like that they have a lot of great ingredients other than just glucosamine and chondroitin. We were given Deramaxx to give Finn for pain/inflammation which we give only when he limps which may be only one or two times a month. Our vet did say that he may reach a point where he needs them daily which I hope won't be soon but with this new popping noise his hips have been making I'm not so sure.

Something I've been looking into is Wobenzym or Medizym. They are systemic enzymes made for people and there is a dog version of each that has the word Fido added to the name. I read a lot of stories online where people swear they healed their dogs and my brother used to give them to his lab for arthritis and he even took them himself. He's supposed to bring me a bottle so we can see if they help Finn. Just thought you might be interested in checking it out. I started a discussion on it a while back but not too many people seem to have heard of either product.

Happy Birthday!! Lots of corgi kisses to you!
