Are there any potential side effects of Healthy Hips?

When introducing new ingredients like those in Healthy Hips, some dogs may experience a brief transition period as their gut adjusts. While most dogs tolerate the chews well, some may show temporary signs such as soft stools, gas, or a rash. These symptoms are generally mild and should resolve as your dog adapts.

For dogs that are extra sensitive, it can be helpful to introduce Healthy Hips gradually. The soft chews can easily be broken by hand into halves or even quarters, allowing you to start with a smaller portion and work up to the full serving size (found here) over time. This slow introduction can reduce the chances of digestive upset. Additionally, giving the chews with meals rather than on an empty stomach may improve your dog’s digestive response.

For dogs with a history of sensitive digestion or food sensitivities, our Perfect Poop supplement offers digestive support, helping to regulate their system and reduce digestive upset when introducing new foods or supplements.

If symptoms persist or if you’re concerned, we recommend pausing use and consulting with your veterinarian. And don’t forget, our 100% Growl-Free Guarantee ensures you can always contact us for personalized advice or to request a refund—we’re here to help
