When you have two large-breed dogs combined into one, it is understandable for her dog to have joint problems due to arthritis. Large breed dogs such as this are on the very high-risk chart for arthritis. We are pleased to hear from Sharon that her dog, Lex is doing great thanks to the help of [Glyde® Mobiity Chews.](https://storeanz.parnell.com/collections/dog-joint-supplements/products/glyde-chews) Here is what Sharon said about her #GlydeDog. “Lex is an 11-year old Staffy x Rottweiler/Mastiff. Lex was previously been on pain medication for around 3 years. Sometimes the pain meds upset his stomach. We tried to lower the dosage to help his tummy issues. He was still getting stiff and sore in his front legs after heavier exercise. We tried Glyde and have been using it  with 3 chews per day for Lex. I believe there has been a decrease in his stiffness after exercise. I plan to continue using Glyde, especially through the colder months.” *— Sharon* We recently did in-depth reviews of both breeds of dogs. Not surprisingly, these dogs are both larger breeds, which means they get joint problems at an earlier age than smaller dogs. Check out those articles for more information about Rottweilers and Mastiffs when it comes to joint pain and how to keep them happy and healthy! - Here is the article about [Rottweillers: Why We Love Them!](https://blog.parnell.com/en-au/we-love-rottweilers-loyal-athletic-often-arthritic) - Here is the article about [Mastiffs: Giant Breed Dogs](https://blog.parnell.com/en-au/mastiffs-giant-dogs-big-hearts-and-at-risk-for-arthritis) We love all breeds of dogs and are happy to help keep them more mobile with the help of Glyde Mobility Chews for dogs!
