14 y/o with arthritis, what is a good supplement to give him some relief ?

I have an older gentleman, overall good health for his age. I am looking for recommendations for a good joint supplement to help ease arthritis pain. Any suggestions would be welcome, just want him to be more comfortable.

I have a older dog and use glucosamine and chondroitin supplements. There are many brands on the market that are "soft chews" for dogs and they all have diffrent quantities of active ingredients in them. The brand I favor has 4 different levels so you can put your pup on a higher dose to get them started and then lower it to a matainence dose once your pup is doing better. It will take some time but you should see some progress in 30-60 days. My girl thinks of them as "treats" (What she doesn't know will only help her :) )
