--- title: Glyde Gives Suzi Big Swims description: Here is how Angela managed arthritis in her Labrador. She kept her at a healthy weight, eating good food and adding a supplement with the nutrients designed to improve joint function, such as with Glyde Mobility Chews. image: https://blog.parnell.com/hubfs/Blog%20post%20images%20(1).jpg --- [![Parnell Living Science](https://blog.parnell.com/hubfs/Parnell_Dec2017/images/Parnell_Logo_Wht_Tagline.png)](https://storeanz.parnell.com/) - [Sign in](https://storeanz.parnell.com/account) - [Menu](https://blog.parnell.com/en-au/suzi-has-big-swims#nav) [![Parnell Living Science](https://blog.parnell.com/hubfs/Parnell_Dec2017/images/Parnell_Logo_Wht_Tagline.png) ](https://storeanz.parnell.com/) # Glyde Gives Suzi Big Swims - [Home](https://storeanz.parnell.com) - [Parnell Paws Blog](https://blog.parnell.com/en-au) - Glyde Gives Suzi Big Swims 4/06/19 3:20 PM ![Blog post images (1)](https://blog.parnell.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Blog%20post%20images%20(1).jpg?width=1600&name=Blog%20post%20images%20(1).jpg) We recently heard from Angela, who has a beautiful black Labrador named Suzi. Labradors are in the very high-risk category for [Osteoarthritis](https://blog.parnell.com/en-us/what-is-arthritis-in-dogs) (OA), or arthritis in dogs, due to their large-breed size. The reason is because joint problems are more common. Some Labs suffer from hip or elbow dysplasia, which prevent normal movement and cause pain and immobility. This was causing Suzi to swim less than she would like.  Sometimes it's like putting the cart before the horse. You want your dog to be more active so they have better joint mobility. But if their joints already hurt, it's hard for them to be active. This is what was happening for Suzi. Angela knew arthritis in dogs was more manageable when you keep your Lab at a healthy weight, and give them good food to eat. Also adding a supplement with nutrients designed to improve joint function, such as with [Glyde Mobility Chews](https://store.parnell.com/collections/companion-products/products/glyde-chews) is a great way to combat arthritis. This is the same regimen that worked for Angela’s dog, Suzi.  Here is a brief testimonial on how Suzi is now a #GlydeDog. “Suzi the 11-year-old black Labrador Retriever enjoys the taste of the chews. After nearly finishing our first jar, she seems more active. I’m happy with the improvement of recovery after big swims too. She doesn't seem as sore or stiff, which is great.”   * — Angela* --- ### Also in the Parnell Paws Blog [![Perfect Pet Holiday Feast: What to Share with Your Dog](https://blog.parnell.com/hubfs/What-your-dog-can-eat-for-the-holidays.jpg)](https://blog.parnell.com/en-au/perfect-pet-holiday-feast-what-to-share-with-your-dog) [Perfect Pet Holiday Feast: What to Share with Your Dog](https://blog.parnell.com/en-au/perfect-pet-holiday-feast-what-to-share-with-your-dog) 20/11/23 2:01 PM [Read More ](https://blog.parnell.com/en-au/perfect-pet-holiday-feast-what-to-share-with-your-dog) [![Advantages & Disadvantages of Online Dog Training Courses](https://blog.parnell.com/hubfs/dog%20training.png)](https://blog.parnell.com/en-au/advantages-disadvantages-of-online-dog-training-courses) [Advantages & Disadvantages of Online Dog Training Courses](https://blog.parnell.com/en-au/advantages-disadvantages-of-online-dog-training-courses) 16/08/23 2:35 PM [Read More ](https://blog.parnell.com/en-au/advantages-disadvantages-of-online-dog-training-courses) [![10 Ways to Celebrate Your Dog’s Birthday](https://blog.parnell.com/hubfs/Happy%20birthday%2c%20Dog!.jpg)](https://blog.parnell.com/en-au/10-ways-to-celebrate-your-dogs-birthday-today) [10 Ways to Celebrate Your Dog’s Birthday](https://blog.parnell.com/en-au/10-ways-to-celebrate-your-dogs-birthday-today) 1/08/23 2:37 PM [Read More ](https://blog.parnell.com/en-au/10-ways-to-celebrate-your-dogs-birthday-today) #### Share [![Share on facebook](https://7528309.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hub/7528309/hubfs/raw_assets/public/mV0_d-web-default-modules_hubspot/img/facebook-color.png?width=24&name=facebook-color.png) ](http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.parnell.com%2Fen-au%2Fsuzi-has-big-swims%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dfacebook) [![Share on linkedin](https://7528302.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hub/7528302/hubfs/raw_assets/public/mV0_d-web-default-modules_hubspot/img/linkedin-color.png?width=24&name=linkedin-color.png) ](http://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.parnell.com%2Fen-au%2Fsuzi-has-big-swims%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dlinkedin) [![Share on twitter](https://7528304.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hub/7528304/hubfs/raw_assets/public/mV0_d-web-default-modules_hubspot/img/twitter-color.png?width=24&name=twitter-color.png) ](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?original_referer=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.parnell.com%2Fen-au%2Fsuzi-has-big-swims%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dtwitter&url=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.parnell.com%2Fen-au%2Fsuzi-has-big-swims%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dtwitter&source=tweetbutton&text=) [![Share on email](https://7528311.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hub/7528311/hubfs/raw_assets/public/mV0_d-web-default-modules_hubspot/img/email-color.png?width=24&name=email-color.png) ](mailto:?subject=Check%20out%20https%3A%2F%2Fblog.parnell.com%2Fen-au%2Fsuzi-has-big-swims%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Demail%20&body=Check%20out%20https%3A%2F%2Fblog.parnell.com%2Fen-au%2Fsuzi-has-big-swims%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Demail) #### +MUST READ -
