TBH I would not bother with a dog food whose USP was for joints, I do not believe that any food will contain sufficient for a dog.
I would feed a regular dog food with a low oil/fat content of good quality such as Burns, JWB, Arden Grange etc (low should be 10% or even lower).
No need for special diets.
You can bulk out the food if you want with veggies but avoid those thought to exacerbate arthritis, those would be the ones belonging to the nightshade family ie tomatoes, potatoes, peppers and aubergine.
Supplements would include:
Chondroitin
Glucosamine
MSM
Green Lipped Mussel
Rosehip
Fish Body Oil (high DHA and EPA content) + Vitamin E
Vitamin C
Hylauronic Acid
Cetyl-Myristoleate
Ginger
Bromelain
Curcumin
Devils Claw
I get mine from Healthspan, high quality, and we ALL have them as they are designed for humans.
