Several of her fans have since taken to the comments section to show their advice. YuMove – a joint supplement for dogs – was a favourite. One wrote: “YuMove max strength was my choice for our pup,” while another added: “YuMove tablets are fab for joints,” and a third agreed: “Our Labrador is 13 now and his back legs have been a bit wobbly the last couple of years. He has meds prescribed by the vet and also we give him YuMove senior herbal tablets which seem to help.”
