General
Should I give my dog powder or chews?
When deciding whether the chews or the powdered blend would be best for your dog, you should take into account what type of food they eat. Pet parents that feed their dogs a raw, real, or moist food diet tend to like the powdered blends because they can simply be mixed in during mealtime. For finicky pups, we suggest the chews. And for the most refined palettes, you can add a thin layer of peanut butter (without Xylitol) or hide in a bit of cheese while they get used to the taste.
The chews have the same ingredients and composition as the powdered blend though with the exception of a few binding ingredients that must be added for the chews to compress, so you can be sure you’re still getting the good stuff!
What's the difference between Young Dog and Sound Dog Viscosity?
Young Dog Viscosity has every ingredient that Sound Dog Viscosity has to promote joint health, minus herbs like yucca, curcumin, corydalis and frankincense. Those herbs give older dogs additional support to manage discomfort from everyday activities. Young dogs’ can of course have aches and pains from fierce, frequent play but Young Dog Viscosity has MSM to manage that discomfort for a quick recovery.
Should Sound Dog Viscosity be given everyday?
Yes! Joint fluid is broken down every day, so dogs need therapeutic levels of glucosamine daily to maintain and nourish their joints. Think of it as a daily refill.

Product Benefits
How long before it works?
Sound Dog Viscosity has therapeutic levels of ingredients, including quick-acting, anti-inflammatory herbs, so you’ll notice a difference in dogs right away. In 2-3 weeks the glucosamine, chondroitin, and hyaluronic acid will start to build up in their joints to provide long-term cushion and support.
What do you mean by “therapeutic” levels?
Great question! Therapeutic levels are the amount that your pet needs in order for it to have an effect on them. With many glucosamine products, the responsibility of knowing how much of an ingredient is needed falls squarely on the pet parent. Say, you see that a product contains glucosamine and you buy it thinking, “Awesome! I’m totally being proactive about Roxie’s aging joints.” In reality, the serving size may have a negligible amount of glucosamine; not nearly enough to have a positive impact on your pet. At Herbsmith, we take that responsibility off of your shoulders. We guarantee there are therapeutic levels of ingredients in each serving, in every one of our products.
