Hi Nancy,

You can call Dr. Wallach during his radio program "Dead Doctors Don't
Lie." Call from noon-1pm weekdays (top of the hour is best). Voice
(831) 685-1080 and 1-888-379-2552

I also know that you can sprinkle the Majestic Earth Minerals over
your dog's food. Have you also tried the Arthrydex? It also has
vitamins, minerals, and amino acids.

Good luck to you, and let us know if you're able to get an answer
from Doc.
