Pet supplement manufacturer Zooomy has launched a mobile application to help dog owners monitor the joint health of their pets.
The digital tool is designed for owners of senior dogs who are concerned about managing exercise levels. The platform allows users to track mobility changes over time.
The web-based application is free to access and does not require a product purchase. It focuses on identifying mobility changes in older animals.
The company uses long-chain hyaluronic acid in its liquid supplements rather than glucosamine or chondroitin. The tasteless formula is free from fat, sugar and protein.
Humphrey Grimmett, joint founder and veterinarian, said: “Cartilage inside dogs’ joints has no nutrient supply other than from the fluid that fills the joint, the cyclical loading and unloading of the spongy cartilage during exercise has the effect of exchanging the fluid inside with the fresh clean joint fluid it’s bathed in, helping to get rid of harmful molecules and filling it with repair materials.
“Giving your senior dogs a joint supplement can also provide relief and prevent issues. At Zooomy we have developed one of the fastest-growing joint support products in the UK, offering an evidence-based long-chain Hyaluronic Acid (HA) supplement that delivers rapid improvements for pets living with stiffness or mobility issues.”
