Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Nupro Joint Supplement 5 lbs.Customer Review: Relieved my dog's limp! Summary: 5 Stars
My 7-8 year old rescue dog was in seemingly perfect health, but he started to show a recurring limp from one of his front legs. After a lot of research, I found that one of the best things I could do for him was more Glucosamine. Dogs can have the same Glucosamine that people can, as long as it's not one of those pills loaded with other vitamins. I purchased a bottle of Glucosamine Chondroitin capsules online. Because I make all of his treats from scratch, I just opened up each capsule, and the powder inside went right into his dog treats. This worked okay for a year or so, but the limp came back. Back to more research, I came across this stuff from a forum somewhere. I decided to purchase it, and now he cannot have a meal without it. :)
First off, one of the biggest complaints about this is the taste - a lot of people have trouble getting their pets to actually eat this. This is more true for the Nupro Nuggets for cats). I cannot attest to this problem; I have to store this in the closet so that he doesn't try to open it. The smell isn't bad, I think it smells better than some conventional canned dog food.
Although there are a lot of reviews on this stuff, I didn't see a lot of suggestions for uses. I feed my dog raw food and Wellness Senior Dry dog food. I mix one scoop of this stuff (the directions say a scoop and a half but it's a little pricey and a scoop does the trick) with just a little dry food to bind everything together. For size comparisons, I have a 55 pound mixed breed. This has proven to be a great mix for us, but your mileage may vary.
This stuff really is fantastic. My dog's limp has gone away completely, but if I take him on vacation or somewhere away from home for a few nights and I forget this stuff, he starts to have joint problems again. I don't consider the price a negative, since it does what it promises and makes me feel better about the health and happiness of my dog. I do recommend buying the smaller size container to start with. If you continue to use it, you'll have a smaller container to dispense from, because this size (5 lb) container is a little large if you keep it on the counter or try to scoop from it on a daily basis.
