Also it becomes inevitable with the age of the pet. And there are breeds of dogs genetically predisposed to similar phenomena - diseases of ligaments and vessels.
To the life of the pet continued to be painless and active, without unpleasant symptoms, a special vitamin complex designed for dogs with the purpose of prevention and cure for diseases of the musculoskeletal system was developed.
The composition of the preparation Stride Plus for dogs
The vitamin complex includes such components:
- hyaluronic acid;
- sulfate chondroitin;

The action of these active substances contributes to the removal of pain syndrome, as well as inflammatory processes in the joints of the animal. These substances are able to restore the affected areas of the cartilage, facilitating the movement of the dog.

Manganese takes part in the process of assimilation of chondroitin sulfate.
