Are Eggshell Membrane and Omega-3s Helpful for Joints?

Short answer: Yes. Many pet parents use eggshell membrane and omega-3 fatty acids to support joint comfort and mobility. Our Gold Fishies combine both in one crunchy, bite-size treat.

What Is Eggshell Membrane?

The thin layer inside an egg shell naturally contains collagens and glycosaminoglycans (like chondroitin and hyaluronic acid). In food-form treats, it’s a simple way to add joint-supporting building blocks to your dog’s routine.

Why Omega-3s Matter

Omega-3s (EPA & DHA) from fish help maintain a healthy inflammatory response. Along with skin/coat benefits, many dogs get extra comfort during activity when omega-3s are part of their diet.

Why Choose Gold Fishies for Joint Support

  • Real ingredients: wild sockeye salmon, pasture-raised eggs, eggshell membrane, turmeric, black pepper.
  • Two-in-one support: omega-3s + eggshell membrane in a single treat.
  • Ready to train: small, Goldfish-cracker-sized bites—no breaking needed (halve for very tiny pups).
  • Clean label: limited ingredients, no fillers or dyes.

How to Use Gold Fishies

  • Daily nibble: start with 1–2 pieces for small dogs, 3–5 for medium, 5–8 for large; adjust to total calories and your vet’s guidance.
  • Jackpot topper: crumble a piece over meals for a tasty omega-3 boost.
  • Pair wisely: keep weight healthy and add gentle exercise for best joint outcomes.

Note: Contains fish and egg. If your dog has known allergies, choose an alternative.
