Joint Support for Dogs and Cats

I bought this for my female pit bull after she under went surgery to fix a torn ligament in one of her hind legs. It turns out, they purposely cut one her leg bones, turned it 90 degrees and put a metal plate and screws to replace where the bone was cut and to keep the new position of the newly positioned cut bone. I don’t really understand how or why the needed to break her bone, but she is no longer in pain and can walk/run again, so I’m happy with the end result. That’s were this supplement comes in. I bought it to in hopes that it would help her bones heal faster. I don’t know if it really did speed up recovery, but the vet did seem surprised at how quickly her bones healed up in the post-op x-rays. I kept giving her the supplement but I had to reduce her dosage from 2 treats per day to just 1 a week. If I give her any more than that, then her nails start to grow like crazy and they start making a ton of noise with every step she takes in non-carpeted floors and I have to constantly file her nails down, which she isn’t a huge fan of. I highly recommend this supplement if your dog recently had a broken bone or if you want your dog to have healthy hair, skin and nails, just don’t over do it or you’ll hear the a louder than usual “click-it-tee” sounds with every step they take on hard floors.

I have a 11 year old Yorkie and a 4 yo Yorkie mix. I use the skin and coat supplement for both my babies(which also tremendously helps with their allergies) but recently started using the joint support supplement for my older yorkie who is blind, diabetic, and has had strained ligaments in the past. This supplement works such wonders for her. I've observed that she is much more active, can handle longer walks, can handle stairs better, and is even starting to hop up briefly on her hind legs in excitement (which she hasn't done in a long time). She overall seems to be a happier dog over the course of time using these supplements. I'm so happy I discovered these supplements.

My 14 year old kitty recently had surgery to rule out joint cancer, which involved cutting into a swelling in her elbow joint. She was diagnosed with severe arthritis in both of her elbows, to the point that joint fluid was leaking from one of them. She is on several joint supplements along with a prescription pain reliever but was still struggling with limping and unable to jump up on the bed. I have noticed an improvement in my own joint pain when I added collagen and had heard it was a good help in healing from surgery so I figured it was worth a try for her. I saw a definite improvement within 3 weeks of adding 1/2 a tablet of this product to her breakfast daily. She still walks with a limp but is more active and will jump on the stove and table (still wants a lift onto the bed but I think that's more an attention thing!) and her appetite is better. She also takes it with no trouble, I just break the 1/2 tablet into smaller pieces and add it to her canned food. I'm considering adding this supplement to both my senior dogs' regimen as well. My only complaint is that the tablets are not scored for an even break into 1/2 tablets, so maybe that could be changed in the future to make it easier for cats and small dogs. Otherwise, highly recommend!

I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because my dog does not really like the taste that she will take it by itself; but I crush it and put it in her food and have no trouble once crushed. My dog has allergies and she tore her ACL. There is no way to tell if this helped but I think it does. She itches less and her ACL has been repaired and she seems fine. I would recommend it to a friend.

I never review products on amazon but i have to review this product because is amazing, my dog is about 9 years old and she was limping a lot on one of her back leg and after giving this product in about a week or two i noticed the difference she almost doesen't limp like before maybe sometimes and not as bad as she use to and her coat looks waaaaaaay healthier, this is a really great product i recommend it. Update Feb/2016 My dog has been completely cured, she had arthritis but it has been completely cured, I buy this product every two months(when the bottle empties) now she can run, play and everything :D I REALLY REALLY RECOMMEND

My breeder recommended this for my new puppy, so I gave it a shot. He’s almost a year old now and as he’s grown I have noticed a big difference in his growth and coat development from the Belgian Shepherds I’ve had in the past. Really, really wish I’d known about these sooner! And he loves the taste, he thinks he’s getting puppy candy when I give him his daily tablet. His ears stood up sooner and had greater strength, his legs and joints seem stronger and he hasn’t been as clumsy as some puppies I’ve had. And as a side benefit his coat is amazingly glossy and silky. I waited a couple months from date of purchase to make the initial review just to see if I noticed a difference and have to say, he’s developing beautifully and I think this supplement will always be on my shelf. Really pleased.

I think this probably would have helped if it didn't upset my dog's stomach. He refused to take it after that. Did not have enough time to see if it really helped or not.

I purchased this with hopes it would help my dog. Don't really see any difference w/ his legs. What I am most disappointed in is the inconsistency of the product. There were wafer like pieces that were counted in the total bottle count and they were about a 1/3 of the regular tablet. I emailed the company about this and received no response. It seems they don't back their product.
