You want to add glucosamine, chondroitin and msm. These three ingredients together have been clinically proven to provide the most joint support in dogs. These are actuallly either found in a joint food such as prescription brand Hill's J/D or Royal Canin mobility support. You can also find these in joint supplements like Dasuquin (highly recommended) or Cosequin. I hope this helps.
