Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the main ingredient in these Hip & Joint Soft & Chewy treats?
Ans: Real chicken is the primary ingredient, supplying protein essential for your dog's muscles. It also includes glucosamine and chondroitin to promote hip and joint comfort, ensuring each soft, chewy bite supports your dog's mobility consistently over time.
Q2: How do glucosamine and chondroitin help my dog's joints?
Ans: Glucosamine occurs naturally in connective tissue, whereas chondroitin is found in cartilage. Together, these nutrients support healthy hip and joint function, especially in active dogs or those beginning to exhibit stiffness.
Q3: How often should I feed my dog these treats?
Ans: Feeding frequency depends on your dog's weight, ranging from about half a treat daily for dogs around 5 to 10 lbs up to three treats daily for dogs over 80 lbs, following the feeding chart printed on the package label.
Q4: How long does it take to see joint health results?
Ans: Joint supplements like glucosamine and chondroitin typically require consistent daily use over several weeks before noticeable improvements in mobility or comfort appear. Individual results vary, so track your dog's activity level and comfort closely over the following several weeks.
Q5: Are these treats grain-free?
Ans: Yes, these soft and chewy treats are grain-free, made without corn, wheat, or soy, though they do include chickpeas and tapioca starch for their soft texture, keeping the recipe easy on sensitive stomachs or picky appetites.
Q6: Can these treats replace my dog's regular meals?
Ans: No, these treats are intended for supplemental or intermittent feeding only and should never replace a complete, balanced diet. Always pair them with nutritionally complete dog food, especially for puppies or dogs with special dietary needs.
Q7: What makes these treats different from Dogswell's jerky treats?
Ans: These soft and chewy treats have a moist, easy-to-bite texture instead of a firmer jerky chew, making them a comfortable choice for dogs with sensitive teeth or gums while still delivering the same joint-support ingredients.
Q8: Are there any side effects to watch for?
Ans: Side effects are uncommon, though very high glucosamine intake may occasionally cause an upset stomach or increased thirst. Contact your veterinarian if your dog shows unusual symptoms after eating these treats, such as vomiting, diarrhea, or an allergic reaction.
Q9: Where are these treats made?
Ans: These Hip & Joint Soft & Chewy treats are made in the USA using real chicken as the first ingredient, so you can trust the sourcing and production standards behind every batch you buy for your dog.
