We had an old dog, bless her heart, who got whacked by a car as it was
backing out of our driveway and she was  temporarily paralyzed in her back
legs for a few months.  I was feeding her shark cartilage caps like mad.  I
used to cut slits in raw stew beef pieces, chicken livers etc.  but..like
Smitty said, cheese was the best and easiest.  I was giving Princess so
many shark cartilage caps tho that I couldn't use the cheese for all of
them.   Lola
