Thanks for the advise, all our vet has said is to buy glucosime/condrtin(sp) tablets in a low does and give that to lil bear, I would rather get something that is made for a small dog, makes it easier on my mom when it comes time to give her the stuff. The spray sounds like an option, one thins that worries me about the missing link stuff is lil bear is soooo picky with her food and who knows if she willlike the missink like taste. A spray might be easier to hide
