"Frank's energy level has increased he is enjoying life again!"

"We followed the Vets direction in only giving 1/4 the regular amount of food, but she still got sick with diarrhea. She lost 2 pounds in 7 days.

Bottom Line

While some dogs may benefit from the joint support, frequent complaints about digestive issues and consistency make it a less reliable choice. Potential buyers should consider alternatives.
