Food & NutritionCan my dog take cat joint supplements for luxating patella?
Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach!
I'm sorry to hear that Tron has luxated patellas, and I hope they do not bother him much. It appears to me that there isn't anything in those toxic to dogs, and your veterinarian may use the cat version in order to have an easier dose for smaller dogs. That said, it would be a good idea to call your vet tomorrow and make sure they meant to script it this way and to make sure they are okay with you continuing the supplement as it is a script.
Hope this helps!
