Joint flexor 800 mgQ: Does this product differ from the glucosamine taken by humans as a food supplement?

Treatment for mesquitosQ: I am currently using frontline for my blue heeler and miniature dachshund puppy. they are outside during the day and some in the evening. is there a spray which can repel mesquitos? the k-9 advantix kills & repels mesquitos, but doesn't seem to be as good in the different flea categories. my puppy is scratching his ears and the vet says they are fine. i think it may be mesquito bites. A: I think advantix works just as well for flea prevention as front line and if your concern is mosquitoes then switch to it. keep in mind that scratching ears, etc can be due to other allergies like inhalent allergies or food allergies in dogs

HeatQ: I have a 14 mth old female siamese cat..she still has not gone into heat. is this normal and how long could it take before she does..could there be something wrong.. A: Tough to say. some cats have mild silent heats which you might not detect. cats do not bleed or swell up like dogs. their heats are more behavioral and can in some cases go undetectec by owner
Mammory tumorQ: My basset hound has a large softball size mammory tumor. the local vet examined her and reported that she has several but this is the only one that is showing. she quoted a price of $1300.00 to remove all the tumors but reports that most dogs have a 10% recovery rate. i was curious if it is common to just remove the one tumor? and what the general cost would be? the dog is very high spirited even though she is luging around this tumor. i hate to have to have her put down when her quality of life is still very good even though this one tumor is causing some discomfort when walking. she is active, playful and eats regularly. please let me know your suggestions. A: Try a second opinion about costs. sounds kind of high to me. also most of time vets remove all of the tumors as often if only remove one, others left can rapidly grow after surgery
Need informastion on side effectsQ: Hello i have a 8 year old boxer she has been treated for arthritus in her joints.my question is what kind of side effects do i have to be concerned with she is on dermamaxx 100mx,and what is best help that i can do for her to help her be more comfortable.i also give her gluco 2 any advice would be great. A: I like to add antioxidant nutrients like vitamin e at 400iu daily as well as vitamin c in form of ester c at 1000 mg twice daily. i also like bioflavenoid supplements like proanthocyanidins at dose of 1 mg per pound twice daily in addition to glucosamine like you are doing. even so some dogs need drugs like deramaxx; just have liver/kidneys monitored periodically as well as watching appetite and any intestinal side effects which are less common with this drug
