hmm, I got a little confused here, checked up on Breeders choice and they are using avocado as one of main ingredients... shucks, this is still open debate whether it is poisonous for dogs or not... then I am looking at Active Care and they list chicken bone cartilage...
What makes Active Care® different from the competition?
What makes the Active Care® system different is natural chicken cartilage and our patented method of obtaining it
. Many dog foods have taken an easy leap onto the healthy joint bandwagon by adding varying amounts of synthetic forms of chondroitin and glucosamine then claiming to promote good joint health. Natural chicken cartilage provides the all-important GAGs in an all natural stable form so there are no chemical side effects. With natural chicken cartilage, Active Care® is specifically created to maintain good joint health.
Why is natural cartilage so important?
All Active Care® products are made with natural cartilage because they provide complete joint nutrition with substantially more total GAGs and other nutrients healthy joints need. Natural chicken cartilage provides significantly higher quantities of all the GAGs including glucosamine, chondroitin sulfate, and hyaluronic acid to supply the cartilage cells with the building blocks they need to help re-build joints. In their natural unprocessed form, these nutrients are easy for your dog’s system to recognize and absorb.
those guys made me laugh- patented way to obtain chicken cartilage...
Thanks for the good laugh!
