I have a 13 year old boston terrier that has really slowed down over the last year and an even steeper decline over the last 6 months as I have been pretty certain she was nearing her last days and it has been seriously stressing me out. She would wake up limping every couple of days, always moping and slow walking, struggling to sit down from time to time, and slow to get up and uncertain in her movements. I seen something on the internet that peaked my interest in trying some hip and joint supplements. Now I've only been giving these to her less than a week and both me and my wife have noticed her physical attitude has changed so much that I have not felt feel "worried" or scared for her at the moment, even though she is still up there in age. I don't expect her jumping and running around but I do want to see her at least able to comfortably and safely able to move around the house. I can't say with certainty that these are the reason but nothing else has really changed, so I'm pretty confident these are really helping and I am so happy for her and happy I can sleep at night not worrying that tomorrow might be the day. The only bad thing is that she truly hates them. I think if she had to eat them straight up and understood that they were the reason she's been feeling so great, she'd probably still rather suffer. They smell awful so I can't blame her much. I tricked her the first time setting out some pepperoni that look almost identical and she ate them and that day she already seemed to be improving. But the 2nd time I tried that was a no go. I tried to force her to eat them but she kept keeping her teeth closed and when I did get them in she would act like she's chewing them for a second then it'd come rolling out on her tongue. It was pretty funny. I've been having to break it up into almost a powder into her food and making sure that it gets really well mixed into the food. It even makes good smelling food smell bad, so I'm surprised she still eats it but amen. Anyhow, I wanted to take a star off for the bad smell and the fact she hates it so much but the fact of the matter is that it seems to be working so well and all I have to do is crumble it up. No problem at all. 1000000% worth a try if your old dog is struggling.

Good product.

I can't emphasize enough how life changing these have been for my senior shih tzus (15 & 13). We were watching them slow down more and more with every month that passed, and one of them got to the point that he didn't do much besides eat and sleep. We started to accept that they wouldn't be with us much longer, but I wanted to try these just in case it helped. It took a few months to see a big difference but WOW they're totally different dogs now!! They run and play like they did 5 years ago, you'd never guess that they're as old as they are. They both seem like they have multiple years ahead of them and we couldn't be more grateful for these supplements. If you're on the fence please try them, but work up to the full dose very slowly to avoid any GI issues. and be patient!! They really work.

My dog is 11 years old and was starting to slow down, watch the kids play, and even have trouble getting up a couple of steps. After starting this she is more mobile and has no problem getting up steps and will even chase the kids around.

First day I gave 1 of these treats to my 15+yo Chihuahua and we actually went on a walk later today, for the past week she could barely move and would fall to the ground after a few steps. It must work as a pain killer for her joint paint, not sure. Very happy this product worked and will continue to give her one a day.

Takes time. Works for Chihuahua's floating patella. He loves it with fresh chicken(picky eater).

But these all the time, my Chihuahua won't eat his dinner unless he sees the little brown dot.

Our dog is a picky eater and she doesn't seem to love the taste of these chews so we haven't forced them on her. I wouldn't discourage the product, however, based on her pickiness because she might chew it some days if we leave it out. I'm unable to give an honest review of its effectiveness because of this.

Works well and dogs love them soft enough to break up as one of my dogs has no teeth

This product works for my 14-year old dog, he can walk faster now.

nothing happened she still limps around so i am not impressed with this product that was a waste of $$ and time
