Thinking ahead, she saw the importance of being proactive because Digger was a larger breed of dog.

Thinking ahead, she saw the importance of being proactive because Digger was a larger breed of dog. She started Digger on [Glyde™ Mobility Chews](https://store.parnell.com/products/glyde-chews) so he could keep up with her young son now and in the future. We are happy to hear how Digger is a #GlydeDog. “This photo is of my 3-year-old son, Mason, and his 5-month-old puppy, Digger.  My husband had wanted to get our son a puppy for our son to grow up with. I came across a gentleman who had 6 hound puppies and was trying to find them good homes. The ones left were going to the animal shelter.  I came home one afternoon with this very large black and tan puppy. My son immediately fell in love.  He named him Digger because my husband has an excavating business, hence the name.  At 5-months-old, Digger already weighed 50 pounds! I knew larger breed dog’s life expectancy is about 7-10 years. I knew Glyde would be great for Digger. It’s the only product like it with three amazing ingredients: Glucosamine, Chondroitin, and Omega 3 Fatty Acids ([found in the GLMs](https://blog.parnell.com/en-us/green-lipped-mussel-glm-is-the-power-behind-glyde)). Plus, it is an all-in-one heart-shaped chewable which will keep Digger's joints happy, healthy and strong!  We know by starting Digger out early on Glyde he will be able to jump, run, and play with Mason for many years to come!!!” *-- Jessica*    [![Find Out if Glyde will Work for Your Dog!](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/4000146/20adb05c-469e-478d-b1a0-902a218847a5.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/4000146/20adb05c-469e-478d-b1a0-902a218847a5) --- ### Also in the Parnell Paws Blog [![4 Ways to Keep Your Dogs Safe this Fourth of July](https://blog.parnell.com/hubfs/happy%204th%20from%20the%20dog.png)](https://blog.parnell.com/en-us/4-ways-to-keep-your-dogs-safe-this-fourth-of-july) [4 Ways to Keep Your Dogs Safe this Fourth of July](https://blog.parnell.com/en-us/4-ways-to-keep-your-dogs-safe-this-fourth-of-july) June 27, 2024 [Read More ](https://blog.parnell.com/en-us/4-ways-to-keep-your-dogs-safe-this-fourth-of-july) [![It's a Wrap: Our 2023 Highlights](https://blog.parnell.com/hubfs/its%20a%20wrap%20(1).png)](https://blog.parnell.com/en-us/its-a-wrap-our-2023-highlights) [It's a Wrap: Our 2023 Highlights](https://blog.parnell.com/en-us/its-a-wrap-our-2023-highlights) November 30, 2023 [Read More ](https://blog.parnell.com/en-us/its-a-wrap-our-2023-highlights) [![Top 5 Holiday Pet-Related Disasters to Avoid](https://blog.parnell.com/hubfs/Christmas%20time%20with%20the%20dog.png)](https://blog.parnell.com/en-us/top-5-holiday-pet-related-disasters-to-avoid) [Top 5 Holiday Pet-Related Disasters to Avoid](https://blog.parnell.com/en-us/top-5-holiday-pet-related-disasters-to-avoid) November 30, 2023 [Read More ](https://blog.parnell.com/en-us/top-5-holiday-pet-related-disasters-to-avoid) #### 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-us%2Fdigger-will-stay-young%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-us%2Fdigger-will-stay-young%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-us%2Fdigger-will-stay-young%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dtwitter&url=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.parnell.com%2Fen-us%2Fdigger-will-stay-young%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-us%2Fdigger-will-stay-young%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Demail%20&body=Check%20out%20https%3A%2F%2Fblog.parnell.com%2Fen-us%2Fdigger-will-stay-young%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Demail) #### +MUST READ -
