Nutri-Vet Advanced Strength Hip & Joint Chewable Dog Supplements - Formulated with Glucosamine & Chondroitin to Support Dog Cartilage & Mobility - 150 Tablets

My 12 year old pup has been taking this supplement for the past 3 years or so. He gets some stiffness in his hips from time to time which I notice had decreased significantly since he started taking the supplement. There have only been a couple of times where I didn’t refill in time to avoid a gap in his treatment and I could definitely see he seemed more stiff at this time. He takes 1/2 two times a day so I love this large size for such a great price, which will last me almost a year. The only thing a little frustrating with the advanced strength is the density of the tablet which makes it harder to break in half. Some tablets seem a bit more packed than others so for those, I use scissors, but most days if I just put it on the edge of the counter and kind of pull downward it will split. It’s not annoying enough to deter me from using the product. My dog seems to love the flavor and had no problems eating them and they are working so I will continue daily until the end!

We switched our dog from the high priced Vet prescribed medicine to this and haven’t noticed any deterioration. Seems to work just as well.

Great, came quick and good price. Works for both my dogs, really helps my older dog (14yr) when I occasionally run out of his senior hip and joint. They dont like the smell or something though. I always have to cover with a treat or shove it down their throat as they will eat around it or spit it out otherwise.

My dog (a German shepherd/golden retriever mix--we think--she was a rescue) has been on these for about 4-ish years now, and initially we saw lots of improvement, but the older she gets (she'll be 13 in February), the worse her poor joints are. She was overweight when we started her on these, and she still is--but she's lost over 20 pounds (and is still losing), and I give these pills part of the credit for that because they helped with her pain so she moved around more rather than just lay there like a fuzzy speed bump. Now that she's older, when she gets up and lays down I can actually hear her joints pop and creak (kind of like mine!), and I wish there was a level 4 I could move her to. I'd hate to think of how she'd be if we took her off these, so she's definitely going to continue on them. And she loves them! She thinks of them like a treat and gobbles them up with no problem. My only complaint is that because of her weight she's supposed to get 3 a day--1 1/2 in the morning and 1 1/2 in the evening--so we have to cut pills in half to give her the proper dosage coverage throughout the day, and they tend to crumble when cut. I don't know how this could be solved, but I just wanted to mention it. In the long run, though, the benefits sure outweigh the minor complaints I have.

My vet wanted to do stretch on my dog. Both hind leg knees because the tendon kept sliding out of the knee. At the time I couldn't afford the surgery so I bought these, hoping it would give her a little comfort. She's only 2 years old!! After 3 weeks of eating these twice a day, the tendon stopped sliding. We went from she couldn't straighten her back leg a dozen times a day and I had to move it back into place, to it just didn't do it anymore. So now I give her 1 a day to maintain and she's been doing great. Maybe when she gets older, the issue will come back and she'll need surgery then but for now she's OK and can walk without an issue in the knees. Smell is nothing crazy or too potent. They are not soft. It's a hard tablet. It's a good size but for my dog and weight, I just cut them in half which was really easy to do. My dog had no issue eating it so they must taste good and therefore are way to use

I have been giving this product to both my arthritic dogs for several years. This is about the most cost effective product that I have found. I also give them a 1000mg fish oil cap daily (punctured & squeezed onto their food) & "Dog Pain Away" (a natural herbal arthritis product). I was giving them "Dog Gone Pain" , but it was less cost effective than the "Dog Pain Away" . They seem to work equally well. I was able to discontinue the prescription Tramadol which upset one of my dog's digestive system.******************UPDATE JUNE 2017******* My last order of this product was very disappointing. The manufacturer has apparently changed the product & it is not for the best. It always amazes me that companies think that they can make changes to a product to save money & expect people to continue to buy a sub-standard product. The tablets are no longer scored & it is impossible to break them in half to give my dog his correct dosage. The tablets just crumble into a mess when you try to cut them in half. I am totally disgusted with this product. I have used this product for approximately 10 years for my dog with great results, but this will be the last bottle that I buy because the manufacturer saved a few pennies by no longer scoring the tablets!!! Wonder what pea-brained idiot at the company thought that was a good idea? Bet they never tried to break the tablets!!!!!!!!!

I like this product for my dogs well being and health and have been using it a long time. My only question is to the seller. How can this product (300 count) go from $99 to $84 then up to $114 all within three days. You were good enough to credit my acct. with the $15 (from $99 to $84), but now $114 ?? All I can say is wowza, think I will find a more reasonable alternative.

Way cheaper than the pet stores

I had tried another product before these and they did nothing. However I really noticed a difference in my dog's mobility is after giving her these. I give her 2 a day. She is a large breed, yellow lab/shepherd/husky cross. She also seems happier and more playful. It does take a month or 2 to see a difference. It took quite a while for delivery, order well in advance before you run out.

My dog has had hip problems for the past year, the poor boy could barely walk. Our vet recommended i give him glucosamine. I found this one and took the bottle into the vet. She loved all the ingredients that were in it. My dog isn't thrilled with the taste, however, a pill pocket solves that. Taste aside you wouldn't believe the improvement in his hips! He's gone from barely walking down the driveway to walking a couple kilometers. We've been doing exercises too, but these pills definitely made a huge difference in my dog's mobility

My dog eats these up no problem, it must taste similar to a treat. I love the quantity and potency of the supplements, as with others, you usually have to give 2 or three a day, which means you run out quickly, but just one of these a day helps the supply last.
