Tell Me More ...

Rufus & Coco Joint Aid is a professionally formulated dog supplement:

Contains key ingredients that are essential in promoting cartilage synthesis, repair and protection, with an added anti-inflammatory agent.
  • Unlike steroids and some NSAIDs, which can damage chondrocytes,
  • Rufus & Coco Joint Aid is a safe nutraceutical, not a drug.
  • Unique concentrated formula is specifically formulated for dogs.
  • Less intrusive than many other options for treating arthritis, with no side effects.
  • A 150g pack lasts a medium size dog up to two months at maintenance dose.
  • Tasteless, odourless powder that is easily mixed into your dog’s wet food.
  • Each pack includes a scoop to make administration easy.
  • Drug free and safe.

“Arthritis limits all the things dogs love to do; run, jump, chase, walk and play. Rufus & Coco Joint Aid uses clinically proven ingredients to reduce inflammation and assist with the regeneration of cartilage. All to get your dog moving again with ease”. - Dr Paul McGreevy, BVSc, PhD, MRCVS, MACVSc , Scientific Advisory Panel Member RSPCA

Why might your dog benefit from this product?

As dogs age, it is common for their joints to become less flexible, which impacts their mobility and quality of life. Even at younger ages, some dogs are subject to joint health concerns, which affect flexibility and mobility.

The following signs suggest that your pet may have arthritis.
  • Reluctance to walk, climb stairs, jump or play.
  • Limping or walking strangely.
  • Swelling in, or abnormal appearance of, a joint.
  • Lagging behind on walks.
  • Difficulty rising from a resting position.
  • Yelping in pain when touched or generally resisting touch.
  • Ideally, your dog should start taking this product prior to six years of age to slow the degeneration of cartilage that causes arthritis.

Active Ingredients
Each 2.5g of Rufus & Coco Joint Aid contains: Glucosamine HCI 500mg, Chondroitin Sulfate 400mg.
 
Also contains: MSM 51mg, Manganese Gluconate 45.5mg, Calcium Ascorbate (Vit C) 80mg, Zinc 2.1mg, Copper 0.17mg and Vitamin E 1.5mg.

Glucosamine Hydrochloride - Stimulates synthesis of synovial fluid and the complete cartilage matrix, including collagen and proteoglycans. Basically, Glucosamine provides the building blocks to synthesise new cartilage.

Chondroitin Sulphate - In addition to being the major glycosaminoglycan (GAG) found in cartilage, this provides protection by inhibiting degradative enzymes.
Put simply, Chondroitin blocks destructive enzymes that break down cartilage in the joint.

MSM (Methyl Sulfonyl Methane) is a compound normally found in foods. It contributes methyl groups and sulphur, Methtyl groups form the building blocks of all organic molecules in the body.
Sulphur is necessary for healthy cartilage and liver detoxification processes, which helps with the strength of collagen in the joints. With increasing age, the supply of sulphur in the body decreases.

MSM is often considered the safest donor of methyl groups and sulphur, as it leaves no toxic rest molecule behind.
Manganese and calcium ascorbate (Vitamin C) are essential in the pathways to manufacture cartilage.
