Each tablet contains 300 mg of perna canaliculus mussel (a shellfish found in the northern Atlantic\Canadian waters) in a base of alfalfa and brewer's yeast. The mussel in Glyco-Flex is supposed to act as a catalyst to help the abundant flow of synovial fluid in and around joints and tendons. This helps older dogs or very active dogs that are showing joint pain, as well as with healthy dogs to help prevent minor injuries.

- Parvo
Parvo is a viral disease of dogs. It affects puppies much more frequently than it affects adult dogs. The virus likes to grow in rapidly dividing cells. The intestinal lining has the biggest concentration of rapidly dividing cells in a puppy's body. The virus attacks and kills these cells, causing diarrhea (often bloody), depression and suppression of white blood cells -- which come from another group of rapidly dividing cells. In very young puppies it can infect the heart muscle and lead to "sudden" death.

- Canine Hip Displasia
Canine hip dysplasia (CHD) is a mostly inherited disease involving abnormal development of the femoral head and acetabulum. All puppies are born with normal hips. The hips of dysplastic dogs will subsequently undergo progressive structural changes. Either the socket (acetabulum) will become too shallow or the ligaments and/or muscles do not exert enough control to keep the femoral head from slipping away from the socket.

Pet microchips are technological marvels that have already had an amazing impact on the animal welfare community. In many animal shelters and veterinary offices, admitted stray animals are now routinely scanned for microchips., Often these animals are reunited with their adoptive families.

Feline Leukemia
Since it was first recognized as a disease in 1964, feline leukemia has replaced panleukopenia—better known as feline distemper—as the principal scourge of cats. FeLV attacks a cat's white blood cells and renders those cells ineffective. Because white blood cells foster the healthy body's immune response to disease, their demise renders the body defenseless against even the most benign illness.
pet health insurance
Pet health insurance can help meet those unexpected vet bills. It is less expensive than you think and could save you thousands.
