Berry Balance Powder For Urinary Tract Health In Cats & Dogs 3.5 180089

I got this as I read about it stopping crystals in dogs. I have been giving it for the past 2 weeks and I can’t comment on the controlling of crystals but it has cleared my Bichons tear stains. Very impressed… I have not found anything else to help with his tear stains.

This is amazing stuff! My Chinese Crested Dog (powder puff), had recurring UTI's - so on a whim, I decided to try this product to see if it made a difference, rather than putting her on antibiotics again. Not only did it clear up her UTI, it also got rid of the tear stains she developes every time she gets one. I'm going to try it on my English Bulldog next to see if it helps with her tear stains at all.

With a 3 fur household (2 brother cats - 1 large dog), and a single parent... symptoms or illnesses, even injuries, are always a concern. One of my cats began to go outside the litter box after 5 years (and shared the box with his brother). He had done it once before about a year prior, but it was a one-time thing and I wasn't even sure which cat it was. This time around it was clear we had a problem on our hands. I had my Vet run more tests than he even felt necessary - I wanted to know the cause, and the change to the "vet food diet" wasn't only not a financial option, but there's no choice of flavor, texture or anything else, and who wants to eat the same thing every day? Very small and few crystals were found, so small that he didn't think it should have been causing the problem that it was (but it was). And he was licking a lot - as in "NON-STOP" so I knew that something was causing him either pain or discomfort, something wasn't right and he didn't have a UTI - no infection found. My old Vet prescribed a temporary steroid for him to minimally help with his discomfort, since my new Vet didn't (and his comfort was of huge importance to me)... and told me what to request be done for him (with the new Vet). All came back clear again, but those few very small crystals. I kind of raked the Vet over the coals for his lack of "what should we do and how do we keep him comfortable," while I was washing and ruining comforters every single day for a week or 2. Finally upon the 2nd urinalysis I requested, seeing that they had not decreased in size or left him, with me demanding something be done, the new Vet finally told me to find a cranberry powder (it's all about the PH as everyone's been talking about). My go to is Chewy.com for my pet needs, but they only sold the chewable and there was no way I was getting my cat to eat the chewable so I came to Amazon and this seller (who rushed it out to me while she had a bad cold - amazing seller) and within the past few weeks that he's been on it there's been a complete turn around. No more out of the box accidents, no more strong smelling urine and his behavior has become much more playful and snuggly again and it's only been a few weeks. It's absolutely working!! I'm amazed, and relieved! He's going back for another urinalysis this coming week, which will be near 4 weeks after using Solid Gold and I feel certain that the results will be much better (I'll update if they aren't). As for flavor, it's berry, which my cat doesn't seem to mind at all, though I do mix it in with his wet food extremely well, so it's likely just adding a little bit of a fruity flavor to the meaty or fish flavors he gets and he gobbles it all down. I'm excited to see the next urinalysis results (so is my wallet!!!! - though of course his health means most). Having come from a family who's had cats for decades, so far I'm convinced that everyone who has a cat should be using this supplement to not only ensure proper PH, but to ensure that no crystals build up. We've had quite a few over the years that suffered with discomfort and needed painful surgeries or caths. This product stops the cause, therefore it stops the symptoms, behavior and the suffering. I think every Vet should be selling this product or in the least strongly recommending it as an immediate first try if the PH is off, UTI is shown or crystals are about.

My furbabies like it.

My Cavalier King Charles spaniel girl was very sick; actually peeing blood for a month before being told she might need surgery. I researched this and other products claiming to help with bladder infections, crystals, and stones. I ordered this one right away based on the brand alone; this is the same brand of dog food I give both of my Cavs (Sundancer is their favorite). It took about 2 weeks of daily disciplined scoops sprinkled over her dog food (which she stopped having interest in she was feeling so bad; she didn't want to eat or drink - probably due to the intense pain of urinating etc...). I had no problem remembering to give her the berry balance, but my kids sometimes forgot, so I'd give her a special bit just before bed time. Normally a picky eater, amazingly she LOVES the flavor and lapped it up happily. I saw an immediate difference, she still had to go 20 times per day, but she didn't appear to be in so much pain. We had her on antibiotics at the same time and she returned to normal within 2 weeks. Now I give her a small sprinkle in her daily dog food just to keep the issues away (as a preventative measure). Her sibling gets a scoop once a month and both have checked out fine at the Vet. Wow, a cure in a jar for less than $20.00 - awesome! This stuff does really help! Definitely take your pet in to see your Vet, don't self medicate, but tell your Vet about this stuff, it definitely worked for us. Update June 2014: It's been 7 months and I still give a sprinkle every morning to ensure the UTI doesn't come back, and It works! My dogs are both very healthy and happy, loved little CKCs. I love this product and will continue to buy it. I've spent tons of money in the past at a Vet before, while they experimented with the problem and solution. Cost wise and results wise, this little cure in a bottle saved us!
