Joint & Musculoskeletal
The joint and musculoskeletal system provides the strength, stability, and mobility that dogs rely on for everything from running and jumping to maintaining posture and balance. This system includes bones, joints, muscles, tendons, and ligaments, all working together to support movement. Over time, wear, injuries, or genetic conditions can lead to pain, stiffness, or reduced mobility, impacting a dog’s quality of life. Proactive care, therapeutic interventions, and lifestyle strategies can help support musculoskeletal health and keep dogs moving comfortably as they age.

249.037 | Therapeutic Effect of EPA and DHA Supplementation in Neoplastic and Non-Neoplastic Companion Animal Diseases | This systematic review evaluates the therapeutic effects of EPA and DHA in treating various diseases in dogs and cats. Twenty-three randomized studies were analyzed, with benefits seen in both neoplastic (cancer-related) and non-neoplastic conditions such as allergic dermatitis, osteoarthritis, cardiovascular diseases, and haircoat disorders. The anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties of EPA and DHA, through suppression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and matrix metalloproteinases, are highlighted as key mechanisms for their therapeutic effects. | https://www.bernies.com/?post_type=bu-research-paper&p=249037 | |
