If I feed my 8-month-old GSD joint supplements now, will it incur any stress or insure proper development for adulthood?

Full Question:
I have wondered for some time if a joint supplement could be added to my 8 month old gsd (f) food, too maybe help with hip and joint development while she is young, so as to maybe repair any stress if incurred, or to insure proper development for adulthood before, or to help prevent, a problem that may develop that would necessitate the need for supplements such as joint oats or grand flex. I have read the description of these supplements, but seems they are all given to an older dog that exhibit problems or arthritis, or to working (heavily exercised) dogs.

Thank you in advance for your consideration of above question.

I don’t know if there is any research to show that adding a supplement to a young dog’s diet will prevent a problem from developing down the road, but I don’t feel it will hurt anything.



The most important factor is an appropriate diet and the correct amount of exercise for a growing dog.



We also have a great section on feeding dogs, I think you’ll find a lot of helpful information there.
