Nutramax Labs Dasuquin for Dogs With MSM, Small/Medium Dogs, 150 Tablets Healthcare & Supplements

My 3 1/2 year old dog started showing signs of a luxating patellar so I started her on Dasuquin based on a recommendation from a friend. Her symptoms cleared up in a matter of days and she has been fine for about a month now. Fingers crossed this holds long term.

We have 2 rescue dogs that are about 8 1/2 yrs old. Our "son" has had some issues with tweaking his back or paw when he runs and jumps and plays. And he was getting the older dog issues with stiffness after being still for a period of time. I talked to our vet (who also specializes in acupuncture for animals) and she suggested the Dasuquin a a supplement. I have been giving him one chewable tablet with dinner for about a year now and we have noticed an improvement for sure. He is doing great and does not appear to be as stiff/slow/sore in the mornings or in the evenings after a busy day. He loves to go on his walks and doesn't slow to a snail's pace 15 minutes in anymore. He is back to the bouncy, energetic boy he was and he has had no side effects at all. He is back to chasing squirrels with a vigor and in general seems to be doing much better since we added this supplement. He loves the chewable, so we have no problem getting him to take it. As I said, the vet recommended it and told me to shop online because even tho she could sell it to me, she said the vet cost is outrageous. (She was right!) I found the best price on Amazon.com and every time I have ordered it, it has arrived on time and is a fair price in my opinion. I would highly recommend Dasuquin after talking to your vet to see if appropriate for your pet.

My 1 year old English Bulldog needed knee surgery (vet recommended). Started using this product and 10 months later she is fine. She just need physical therapy.

give this to help with potential hip dysplasia commonly occurring in shepherds. used to give the soft chews, but this is cheaper. since my dog eats kibble, this hard chew is eaten at the same time in the same bowl during the morning.

It is extremely rare that I place a "life changing" tag on anything. I don't live my life in superlatives and consider myself to be very critical when analyzing any products. I do not hand out 5-star reviews on every product I buy. We have two beagles, now 11 and 13. The younger one started to slow down significantly about 2 years ago. He also became much hairier and was constantly seeking heat. The vet ran some tests and determined he had an underactive thyroid. We put him on thyroid medication and got his levels back to where they should be. Unfortunately, his energy and flexibility only improved slightly. He was still noticeably lethargic, loved laying in the Texas sun (even with the extra hair), and didn't have much motivation for his usual long walks. The vet recommended glucosamine with MSM as some quick physical tests showed stiffening of his joints and tenderness in his back. The vet cautioned that since glucosamine is a supplement, it isn't regulated (read: no clinical trials required). Therefore, some glucosamines are as effective as a placebo. They recommended seeking guidance from a pharmacist or talking to other owners. I saw this as an opportunity to look into the rich reviews from Amazon.com. I started off with a liquid glucosamine product. It had great reviews. Not only was it messy, but the dogs hated it. Yes, I proactively started giving it to our older dog, too. After the first bottle, I didn't see much of a difference. I tried a popular glucosamine pill after that and again, no difference. We also tried a milk-based anti-inflammatory supplement as we had read that this may help. It did, but it was short-lived. We started to wrap our heads around the fact that this might be the beginning of the end. Our dog continued to be lethargic, stiff, and almost depressed. He used to love taking 2+ mile walks and playing in the yard. He did none of this now. It was really depressing to watch. Again, back to Amazon, I did a lot of research and found Dasuquin with MSM. The reviews were glowing and the price was high. Naturally, I was skeptical that this new generation of joint care would be any different. I committed and started him on the "loading cycle." After about 7 days, our old dog started to come back. His desire for walks started to return, he would hang out in the yard, and his confidence improved. At about 2-3 weeks (as the loading cycle completed and we moved to the maintenance cycle), his condition improved even more. At one month, he was about peaked. He now is the first one in-line for walks, wants to stay out the longest, will play in the yard all day, and is confident in doing so. It's like having a 2 year old dog again. Now, after 14 months, we have him and his older brother on a strict maintenance of Dasuquin. Everything is the same as it was at a month in. He is 11 and is doing great. My sense is that as he started to feel better, he became more active. When he was more active, he built up his muscle tone. With increased muscle tone, he was able to be active and flexible and feel good about it. All in all, he is confident, happy, and active. I really couldn't be happier with this product. More recently I sold my brother-in-law on it for his 5 year old English Bulldog. His dog developed tender and sore back legs (common) and began to do less exercise due to discomfort. His experience was almost identical. Results at 1 week, improving up to 4 weeks, peaking and continuing for the past 6 months. He is very happy. Most recently, I turned my mom onto it for her 11 year old German Shepherd with similar joint weakness and discomfort. After just 5 days, she is reporting that her dog has shown a big increase in energy and flexibility. She has been very happy so far and I expect that to continue. All in all, I am extremely pleased with this product. It is one of the very few products I will sell people on. I believe in it wholeheartedly. It truly changed the life of our dog and we are very grateful to have found it.

Works well for older dogs mobility without having to use drugs

dog ate these quite happily , no side effects

I have been using this product for several years and have seen how effective it has been on our dogs

Bought on the recommendation of my vet, but dog has only been on it for 3 weeks at the double dose as recommended. Not seeing any change just yet, but will give it a little more time.

I thought that I was going to have to subject my pomeranian puppy to knee surgery. He was walking/running on three legs but he's been on Dasuquin for a year now and he isn't limping anymore
