Doggy Flex: nutritional support for dog joints

Why take care of a dog's joints?

Joints play an essential role in a dog's movement and daily activity. They are called upon with every movement, whether running, jumping, playing or simply standing up.

With age, intense physical activity, excess weight or certain genetic predispositions, joint structures may be subjected to greater strain. This situation can progressively affect the animal's mobility and comfort.

Early management combining a suitable diet, controlled physical activity and nutritional support helps preserve the dog's locomotor well-being over the long term.

A formula developed for canine mobility

Doggy Flex AUDEVARD is a nutritional supplement specifically formulated to support a dog's joints.

Its composition combines various nutrients selected to help maintain normal joint function. This formula is particularly suited to older dogs, sporting dogs or animals whose joints are heavily used on a daily basis.

Presented in the form of palatable mini-granules, Doggy Flex is easily incorporated into the usual food ration.

Developed by AUDEVARD, a laboratory recognised in the field of animal well-being, this supplement meets the needs of owners wishing to sustainably support their companion's mobility.

An enriched formula to support joint metabolism

DOGGY FLEX AUDEVARD benefits from an enriched formula containing nutrients specifically selected to support a dog's joints throughout its life.

This new formulation notably combines Omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin E, two nutritional elements that help support chondrocyte metabolism. These cells play a central role in the normal functioning of cartilage.

Chondrocytes are indeed responsible for the production and renewal of numerous essential components of the cartilage matrix such as collagen, glycosaminoglycans (GAG), hyaluronic acid and various structural proteins.

With age, physical activity or certain mechanical stresses, these cells may be subjected to greater strain. Maintaining their metabolic balance contributes to proper joint function and the preservation of cartilage.

Recognised active ingredients for canine joint comfort

DOGGY FLEX contains several complementary ingredients intended to support locomotor well-being:

• Glucosamine.
• Chondroitin (GAG).
• MSM (Methyl-Sulfonyl-Methane).
• Collagen hydrolysate.
• Omega-3 fatty acids.
• Vitamin E.
• Harpagophytum standardised in harpagoside.

Harpagophytum represents one of the major developments in the formula. This plant is traditionally used in animals whose joints lack flexibility.

Harpagoside, an active ingredient naturally present in its root, is now standardised in DOGGY FLEX to ensure consistent formulation quality.

Thanks to this combination of active ingredients, DOGGY FLEX provides complete nutritional support for a dog's joint structures and cartilage.

Daily support for mobility

Preserving the dog's quality of life

Mobility directly influences a dog's quality of life. An animal able to move comfortably more easily maintains its usual activities and interaction with its environment.

Maintaining joint capital is therefore an important issue throughout life, particularly in older dogs or large breeds.

A comprehensive approach combining a balanced diet, weight control and nutritional support helps effectively support this process.

A use suited to the needs of many profiles

Joint needs evolve according to the dog's age, weight and level of activity.

Some sporting dogs place heavy demands on their joints during training or competitions. Conversely, senior dogs may progressively lose flexibility and mobility.

Doggy Flex has been designed to address these different situations by providing targeted nutritional support.

Frequently asked questions about dog joints

What is the best product for a dog's joints?

There is no universal solution suited to all dogs. The choice depends on the animal's age, breed, weight, level of activity and specific needs. Nutritional supplements formulated to support cartilage, mobility and joint comfort are frequently used as part of a comprehensive approach. Doggy Flex fits into this approach by providing dedicated nutritional support for dog joints.

How can you tell if a dog has sore joints?

Several signs may alert the owner. The dog may find it harder to get up, hesitate to climb stairs, reduce its physical activity or show a certain stiffness after resting. Some animals also become less playful or less inclined to take long walks. If in doubt, a veterinary examination remains essential to identify the origin of the observed problems.

How can you relieve a dog's joints?

Maintaining a suitable weight is one of the first recommended measures. A balanced diet, regular but moderate physical exercise and the use of suitable nutritional supplements can also contribute to joint comfort. Depending on the situation, the veterinarian may propose personalised support taking into account the dog's specific needs.

What are the signs of joint arthritis in dogs?

Arthritis can manifest as reduced mobility, stiffness on standing up, difficulty running or jumping, as well as a general decrease in activity. Some dogs may also change their behaviour or show discomfort during certain handling. A veterinary consultation makes it possible to establish an accurate diagnosis and adapt the management accordingly.
