Muscles, tendons, and bones of the dog
Depending on the age and health of your dog, your dog should ideally be active. A dog needs this activity to expend energy, and your four-legged companion requires it for walking and playing.

If your dog moves too little, combined with poor nutrition, your dog may experience overweight. Additionally, a lack of exercise can lead to your dog feeling down.
Exercise is important
Movement is also crucial for a dog’s muscles, bones, and tendons. Dogs can suffer from stiff muscles, which may result from a lack of movement, an underlying illness, a nutritional deficiency, or an injury. On this page, you’ll find various products that can contribute to maintaining good muscle development in your dog and prevent stiff muscles and stiffness. Some available nutritional supplements contain ingredients such as magnesium, calcium, and other vitamins, which work well for your dog’s muscle and joint development. If your dog is older and has no complaints, you can use these products preventively to avoid issues.
Bone problems
In addition to stiff muscles, a dog can also develop bone problems. For example, a dog may experience osteoarthritis (bone wear). This can occur due to aging, similar to humans, or because your dog has suffered an injury that has caused limping. Some dog breeds are known for a hereditary predisposition to hip dysplasia, where the hip joint is not properly developed.
The dog’s tendons
Tendons are attachment connections between muscles and joints. If a dog experiences a tear or strain in the muscle, it does not heal quickly because tendons have poor blood circulation. It is always important to consult a veterinarian if your dog is in pain, limping, has had an accident, or is not feeling well. There are also animal physiotherapists specialized in treating stiff muscles and joints in dogs, and this can be combined with the products on this page.
