Max Strength Plus is our all-in-one daily porridge with serrapeptase added. It contains everything in Max Strength (glucosamine, chondroitin, MSM and hyaluronic acid, our full Nourish + C multivitamin and mineral blend, omega 3 and 6, and probiotics and prebiotics) plus 75mg of serrapeptase, a natural enzyme originally derived from silkworms. Gluten and wheat free, made in the UK, from around 76p a day for a medium-sized dog.
Who it's for
Max Strength Plus is a good choice if your dog is:
- a working dog: gundogs, herding dogs, search and rescue and more
- a sport or performance dog: agility, flyball, canicross, sled or detection work
- very active or athletic
- older and beginning to slow down or stiffen up
- one you'd like to give joint support and all-round nutrition in a single daily feed
- one you'd like to give serrapeptase alongside joint support and all-round nutrition
Not sure which supplement is right?
- Max Strength Plus: everything in Max Strength, with 75mg serrapeptase added.
- Max Strength: the same porridge without serrapeptase, at a lower price.
- Hip & Joint Dog / Hip & Joint Dog PLUS: concentrated joint powders you add to your dog's usual food, with higher daily amounts of glucosamine and MSM.
