Nutramax Cosequin for Dogs Joint Health Supplement, Contains Glucosamine for Dogs, Plus Chondroitin, Supports Healthy Joints, Chewable Tablets, 250 Count

First, I'd like to say that this joint health supplement has been a great addition to my dog's diet. The 250 count offers high value for the price. These high-quality chewable tablets are a hit with my dog. Not only are they easy to administer, but they also provide excellent joint health support. Plus, they're manufactured right here in the US, which gives me extra peace of mind. I wholeheartedly recommend this product.

I love this product!! Here is why: I got my first German Shepherd puppy about a 1-1/2 years ago, and didn't realize the importance of checking into the soundness of her parents' hips and joints. Before she was even one year old, she had back-to-back incidents where she hurt herself playing with our other dog, and exhibited lameness in her back leg. She was in so much pain I had to help her up the outside steps, getting behind her with hands under her belly to hold her back legs up so she could climb up with her front legs. When it happened the 2nd time, we took her to the local vet, who felt her back joints, and said they felt "mushy", like they were not solid at all. She said we'd gotten a "lemon". She recommended we take our GS to a Vet who specializes in orthopedic surgery to check her out. The ortho vet took X-rays and did numerous other tests, and told us our GS had two bad back ACLs, as well as hip dysplasia. He recommended she get both knees operated on, one after the other. She would have to be on restricted activity during the lengthy recovery time of 3-6 months per knee. In addition, each operation would cost a couple thousand dollars! We were upset to think of our energetic, fun loving young dog getting laid-up for so long. We knew she'd hate it. And I was shocked at the estimated cost; it might not have seemed like much to the Vet, but it was a lot of money to me. I could come up with the money if I had to. But it would mean taking money from something else (like work on our house that needed to be done, such as buying a new furnace). And on top of that, I was concerned about whether this was really the right thing to do, especially since it had been a few weeks since she'd exhibited lameness. So I needed to think about it. In talking about the situation with a friend, he told me about Cosequin DS, and I looked it up immediately, I was impressed by the positive reviews, and ordered some immediately. We started our GS on the "initial dosage" right away. So what happened? Our GS has been injury-free ever since she's been on Cosequin (several months now). She runs and plays with our other dog, dashing and darting around our yard like any normal, healthy young dog. She is happy, active and enjoying her life. She does not exhibit any symptoms of being in distress, even thought the ortho Vet said she would be in constant pain without the operations. Will she someday need to have the knee operations? I don't know. I do believe that the vet saw knee and hip problems. But my gut tells me, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it", at least not as long as her quality of life is so good. So yes, I LOVE this product, and highly recommend it to others. I don't know if your results will be as good as ours, but I hope so, and it is certainly worth a try!

Give to our 14 year old German shepherd. Can't imagine how he would get around or up from his bed if he wasn't taking them.

We had a boxer named Sonny years ago who started limping when he was around a year old. Our no-nonsense country vet took X-rays and showed us how bad his hip was, and it was terrible. Malformed ball-joint about half the size it should have been and the other hip was almost as bad. I thought we'd have to put him down but the vet told us to give him this Nutramax Cosequin stuff and see. (He also told us to give him a dog food which had added cosequin, which a lot of them do, especially for larger breeds.) Within a couple months he stopped limping completely. He lived a healthy active life with zero hip problems and passed when he was almost twelve. My vet told me that whenever he had to tell owners of other dogs that their hips were bad, he'd put up two X-rays... their dog and Sonny's. He tell them, "This is your dog. And this is another dog that's been a patient here for years. Look how much worse his hips are." And they were always worse, because the vet said Sonny's hips were some of the worst he'd ever seen. "This dog is healthy and running around without any trouble at all. So try this stuff and let's see what happens." Sonny's brother Hank, btw, had "normally" bad hips, so we put him on this too and he never had a problem either. You may not get the same results. And Nutramax makes a newer version. But every boxer we've had since then has been on this, and none of them have had problems, so we're sticking with it.

I began using Nutramax Cosequin DS for my Aussie rescue. Her two front legs had been broken (at different times) and I was concerned about her joints at the moment and for the future. My vet recommended using a product to help her joints and after reading reviews and checking again with the vet, I have been using this product for about 2 years. Whether it was good doctoring, a safe home, or just the way things go, she certainly hasn't had any difficulty running around. I keep her on a maintenance dose of one per day now and plan on continuing until her needs dictate otherwise. My dog had no gastro problems related to the medication and takes it just like a treat.

ずっと9年近く続けてる。この味変わらないで！

The vet recommended we put our old girl on cosequin to mitigate a hip injury, and we've been thrilled with the results. Buying direct gave us about 2x the pills for the same cost as what the vet was charging, and the results are outstanding. Much less stiffness in our eight year old mixed breed, with no apparent side effects.

They are helping. These are for my Mum's Springer Spaniel. He's 12 now and needs them. Would not keep re-ordering if they were not helping him.

Good for my lge shepherd (150 lbs) improved mobility and runs like a pup again at 5 yrs. Will maintain usage.
