Most dogs show noticeable improvements in mobility and comfort within 4–6 weeks of consistent daily use. Joint health is cumulative — the longer you use it, the better the results.

They may benefit from it. Active dogs often put more load through their joints due to running, jumping, twisting, playing, and daily exercise. HDC can be used as part of a proactive routine to support healthy joints, cartilage, and mobility over time.

Once your dog is around2 years old, they can move onto the Senior blend. While “Senior” sounds like it is only for older dogs, our Senior formula is designed for adult dogs from 2 years onward to support ongoing mobility, joint comfort, and healthy ageing.

Our Junior blend is designed for dogs aged 6 months to 2 years and focuses on supporting healthy joint development, cartilage, growth, and long-term joint protection.

Our Senior blend is designed for dogs aged 2 years and older and focuses on supporting mobility, comfort, cartilage, flexibility, and everyday joint function.

In simple terms:
Junior = build and protect.
Senior = support comfort, movement, and long-term mobility.

Yes. Large breeds and active dogs can place more strain on their joints, especially during growth, running, jumping, beach walks, stairs, play, and training. HDC is weight-specific, which means your dog gets a daily sachet designed around their size instead of guessing with a scoop.

For extra-large dogs over 45kg, we recommend following the dosage guide, which may involve using the large size as directed.

Yes. HDC is designed to support joint health as part of your dog’s everyday routine, not just once they start showing signs of stiffness or slowing down. The goal is to help support healthy cartilage, mobility, flexibility, and joint function over time.

Think of it like brushing your dog’s teeth or feeding a good diet - it is about building a consistent habit before problems become more noticeable.

A great time to start is before obvious joint issues appear. Many dog parents wait until their dog is already slowing down, but joint support can be part of a proactive daily routine - especially for larger breeds, active dogs, fast-growing puppies, or dogs prone to joint strain.

Our Junior blend is made for dogs aged 6 months to 2 years, while our Senior blend is made for dogs 2 years and older.

Not necessarily. Joint support is not only for older dogs - it can also be helpful for growing puppies, large breeds, active dogs, and dogs who put extra pressure on their joints. Our Junior blend is designed for dogs from 6 months to 2 years to help support healthy growth, cartilage, mobility, and long-term joint health.

For puppies under 6 months, or dogs with known health conditions, we recommend checking with your vet first.

That is okay. Just continue with the normal daily sachet the next day. Do not double dose unless your vet has specifically advised you to.

Consistency over time matters more than one missed day.

Yes. You can sprinkle it over dry food. For fussier dogs, we recommend adding a small splash of water, bone broth, wet food, or something your dog already loves to help the powder coat the food properly.

Tear open one sachet and sprinkle it over your dog’s food once per day. You can mix it into wet food, raw food, cooked food, or lightly dampened dry food.

For best results, use daily and consistently.

Yes. HDC is designed to be simple: one daily sachet, sprinkled over your dog’s food.

No tubs. No scoops. No guessing.

Choose your dog’s size based on their current body weight:

Small: 1–10kg
Medium: 10–25kg
Large: 25–45kg
Extra Large: over 45kg, follow the XL dosage guidance

Because HDC is weight-specific, your dog gets a more tailored daily amount without messy scoops or guesswork.

Our formula is designed to be safe alongside most supplements. However, if your dog is on prescribed medication, we recommend checking with your vet before adding anything new to their routine.

HDC uses carefully selected nutritional ingredients designed to support joint health. We focus on transparency, correct dosing, and purposeful formulas rather than adding trendy ingredients just for the sake of it.

Some ingredients may be derived from marine or shellfish sources, including ingredients such as glucosamine and green-lipped mussel in the Senior blend. If your dog has allergies or sensitivities, please check the ingredient list carefully and speak with your vet before use.

Because a 5kg dog and a 40kg dog should not receive the same daily amount. Weight-specific sachets make it easier to give your dog the right level of support for their size without having to measure, scoop, or guess.

Because dogs need different support at different stages of life. Younger dogs are still developing, so the Junior blend focuses more on growth, cartilage, collagen, and structural support.

Adult and older dogs may need more support for mobility, comfort, flexibility, and long-term joint function, which is why the Senior blend includes ingredients such as MSM, green-lipped mussel, curcumin, and UC-II®.

The Senior blend includes ingredients selected to support mobility, comfort, cartilage, flexibility, and healthy joint function.

It includes ingredients such as:

Glucosamine HCl, Chondroitin Sulfate, MSM, Hyaluronic Acid, Green-Lipped Mussel, Curcumin, Piperine, and UC-II® undenatured Type II Collagen.

The exact amounts vary depending on your dog’s weight size.

The Junior blend includes ingredients selected to support healthy growth, cartilage, connective tissue, and joint development.

It includes ingredients such as:

Glucosamine HCl, Chondroitin Sulfate, Hyaluronic Acid, Type II Collagen with mucopolysaccharides, Vitamin C, and Manganese.

The exact amounts vary depending on your dog’s weight size.

Yes. The dose is matched to your dog's age and weight during the quiz, so every dog gets the right amount regardless of breed or size.

Yes. HDC has been reviewed with expert input, including a PhD-qualified animal nutritionist and veterinary involvement. Our goal is to create formulas that are purposeful, transparent, and easy for dog parents to use correctly.

HDC is not currently Australian made. Our product is manufactured overseas, but we are transparent about this. What matters to us is quality, testing, formulation, and making sure the final product meets our standards.

We also conduct Australian testing through appropriate lab testing processes, including testing for quality and safety.

Because we are building this brand around transparency, education, and practical daily support - not fear-based marketing or vague “miracle” claims.

If your dog is taking medication, has a diagnosed condition, or is already using other joint supplements, we recommend checking with your vet first. This helps avoid doubling up on similar ingredients or using something unsuitable for your dog’s individual needs.

Our Junior blend is designed for dogs from6 months to 2 years. For puppies younger than 6 months, we recommend speaking with your vet before starting any supplement.

If your dog has recently had surgery, is recovering from an injury, or is under veterinary care, please speak with your vet before starting HDC.

We recommend checking with your vet before giving HDC to pregnant or nursing dogs.

HDC may not be suitable for every dog. Please check with your vet first if your dog is pregnant, nursing, under 6 months old, has allergies, has a diagnosed medical condition, is on medication, or is recovering from surgery or injury.

Most dogs should take HDC easily when it is mixed into their normal food. For picky dogs, we recommend mixing the sachet with wet food, bone broth, a small amount of yoghurt, sardines, mince, or another food topper they already love.

Start with a smaller amount if needed and build up over a few days.

Try mixing it with a higher-value food topper first. Some dogs need a few days to adjust to anything new in their bowl. If your dog still will not eat it, reach out to us and we can help with suggestions.

Some natural joint ingredients can have a mild smell, especially marine-based ingredients like green-lipped mussel. This is normal and many dogs actually like it, but if your dog is fussy, mixing it well into food can help.

Each pouch contains 30 pre-dosed daily sachets — exactly one month's supply. No measuring, no guessing.

Some dogs may show changes in a few weeks, while others may need longer. For joint support, we generally recommend giving it consistently forat least 6–12 weeksto properly assess how your dog responds

You can, but joint support is usually most effective as an ongoing routine. Many dog parents continue daily use to help support long-term mobility, comfort, and healthy joint function.

Joint support works best with consistency. A 90-day routine gives your dog time to receive daily support and gives you a better window to notice changes in movement, comfort, stiffness, and overall mobility.

It also removes the “I forgot to reorder” problem, which is one of the biggest reasons routines fall off.

Yes, HDC is designed for daily use. Consistency is key when supporting long-term joint health.

HDC may be a good fit if your dog is starting to slow down, feels less eager on walks, takes longer to get up, or seems less comfortable after rest or activity. Our Senior blend is designed to support mobility, comfort, cartilage, and healthy joint function.

If your dog is suddenly limping, in pain, or struggling to move, we recommend speaking with your vet first.

HDC is designed to support dogs who may be experiencing everyday stiffness, reduced mobility, or joint strain. The Senior blend includes ingredients selected to support comfort, movement, cartilage, and joint health as part of a daily routine.

Every dog is different, so consistency matters.

Some dog parents may notice changes within a few weeks, while others may need closer to 6–12 weeks of consistent daily use. Joint support is not usually an overnight fix — it works best when given every day as part of your dog’s routine.

That is why we love the 90-day option: it gives your dog enough time to build consistency.

Yes, we offer a guarantee because we want you to feel confident trying HDC. The exact guarantee may vary depending on whether you purchase a 30-day pack or a 90-day offer.

The 90-day option is usually the best choice if you want to give your dog enough time to properly build the routine.

Reach out to us and we can help. Choosing the correct size matters because HDC is weight-specific, so we want to make sure your dog is getting the right daily support.

If your dog is between life stages or you are unsure which blend to choose, contact us with your dog’s age, weight, breed, and activity level, and we can help guide you.

As a general rule:

6 months to 2 years: Junior
2 years and older: Senior
