Nutramax Dasuquin for Large Dogs, Joint Health Supplement, Contains Glucosamine for Dogs, Plus Chondroitin, ASU, MSM and More, Supports Healthy Joints, Chewable Tablets, 150 Count

I am a huge fan of Nutramax Dasuquin! I'm also a bargain hunter and penny pincher, so I dislike the pricetag, but it's worth every penny you spend. My vet recommended this product for my Choclate Lab when we had to have one of her front legs amputated after an accident. We found her as a stray, but after spending so much money on her surgery, I fell in love and kept her. With that in mind, I also have two other large breed dogs; a 7 year old Sheppard mix and a 3 year old Great Dane/ Hound mix. After my 5 year old Lab became a Tri-Pod, I was concerned about Arthritis creeping up and wanted to do everything I could to help her remain comfortable for as long as possible. That is when this product came into play. She hasn’t missed a beat and I’ve had praise report after praise report from the vet about her bones and joints. It’s now been almost three years since her surgery and we are still seeing no signs of slowing down. My 7 year old Sheppard had started showing his age a year or so ago by getting up a little slower and it seemed his legs were giving him a hard time when he laid down too long. I started giving him the Dasuquin and a month or so into it, it’s as if he’s reverted back to a few years ago. He by no means acts like a puppy again, but you can tell that he gets around with more ease. My thought with this Vitamin is more preventative than reactive. I didn’t want to wait until my dogs were in so much pain, so I’ve been giving it to the young along with Fish Oil and have received good news after good news from our vet as to their health. I don’t claim this to be a Miracle working tablet, but I think it’s the best out there right now and if you are serious about helping your pets receive relief from joint pain and issues, this is the way to go. I’m 3+ years now using this product and I’m just as impressed as I was the first month I noticed a difference. IF you are on the fence about it—give it a try. I don’t think you will be disappointed.

I have used this product before on my elderly cat who had chronic cystitis and struvites in his kidneys all his life. Each year he would get infections but the last 3 years of his 16 years he had no infections or blood in his urine at all! He also had greater mobility! Now our 12 year old German Shepherd has shown signs of arthritis and we started him on these chewable tablets and he is showing a lot of improvements! I have checked on other popular brands of similar products and none have the same ingredients as this product and I feel that these extra natural ingredients make all the difference in our elderly pets health! OurVet recommended these tablets and also recommended we get them here because the Vet sells them for a price we can not afford! We were told to be sure and get the kind with the MSM as well. We just can not get over how this product has improved the lives of two of our beloved pets and we will continue to use this for our other 2pets that are approaching their golden years! The dog eats them like treats so we have no problems getting him to take them! The cat had the sprinkle capsules that I would put in one teaspoon of canned food and he would eat it, then I would feed him the rest of his food. Also I was concerned about buying these on here because they are sold strictly in Vets offices, so I contacted the company that manufactures them. I asked about the fact that this product can only be purchased from a Vet. I was told that was true but some Vets choose to sell them on-line, and if I am concerned I should call the manufacturer, give then the product number that is on the bottle or the box and they can tell you exactly where it came from and who sold it to whom! I know the price is still not the cheapest on line but it is cheaper than a Vets office so I am confident in buying it here and I feel this is a fantastic product for the health of my pets and since it lasts a long time I feel it's not really that much to spend!

My nine year old bulldog had been suffering from arthritis in his right elbow for about six months. I also had a two year old bulldog that started developing knee problems around the same time. I was referred to an orthopedic surgeon veterinarian by my local vet. The ortho vet then performed a $3,100 knee replacement surgery on my two year old dog. When I brought my younger dog in for a follow up to her surgery, I brought the older arthritic dog in for an unofficial exam. The reason being that it costs i$150 just to have this specialist see your dog. The vet checked the progress of my younger dog's knee and everything checked out okay. I then asked him to look at my older dog. The vet said he couldn't really diagnose my dog for sure without having X-rays taken , which would cost $450. He then explained that if it were his dog he would try putting him on Science Diet j/d (joint mobility formula) dog food, and Dasuquin tablets. I bought the first batch of Dasuquin, as well as the dog food from their office, pretty much because I felt guilty for avoiding the office visit fee.I had no hopes at all that the Dasuquin or special food would do anything at all. I thought I was basically being sold overrated supplements. When I ran out of the dog food I went back to their regular old food. I did however keep giving both dogs the Dasuquin, mainly as a preventative for the younger dog. I saw no difference at all until after 4-5 months of use. Then, after having gone through 1 1/2 bottles (2 tabs a day per dog) my older dog made DRASTIC IMPROVEMENTS in his mobility. Before the Dasuquin my dog limped severely due to the arthritis in his front right elbow. After the Dasuquin "kicked-in" he limps only slightly. He's now able to jump up on the couch without help, and plays with the other dog. If your dog has arthritis, like mine does, please try this product. Like I said, it took 4-5 months to kick in, and I had really given up hope that it would even work at all. I'm very impressed.

Hands down the best supplement I've used for my large breed Rottweilers' joint health. I've been using Nutramax Dasuquin with MSM Chewables for over a decade, and it consistently supports their overall wellness. The vet-recommended formula containing glucosamine seems effective, and my dogs seem more comfortable and active since I started giving it to them regularly. The 150-count bottle makes it easy to keep up with their daily routine without hassle.

Seem to be working well. Our 7 year old and 2.5 year old shepherds have healthy joints and a clean bill of health from the vet every year.

Two months ago I was at my vet's office trying not to cry while we discussed "options" for my beloved Emma, my 12 year old Old English Sheepdog. She had pretty severe arthritis that was making it more and more difficult for her to get up off the floor or move around, and the inevitable results of that were almost daily accidents, and my having to pick Emma up off the floor almost every time she needed up. I knew she wasn't doing well, but I wanted to make sure I'd exhausted all my options before the dreaded "final" option. She'd been on meloxicam, Tramadol, Gabapentin, and cortisone with limited success, and the obvious side effects of each. I started looking on my own for some alternative after my vet told me that cortisone pills were Emma's last option. That's when I found Dasuquin. There are many products on the market, and it can be confusing to figure out which ones work. Because of reading previous reviews about Nutramax Dasuquin with MSM, I decided that this was worth a try. I don't regret it. It's been five weeks since she's been on it, and I haven't seen "miraculous" recovery with Emma, but I have definitely seen a change for the better! (For the record, I still give her the meloxicam also, since it's an anti-inflammatory.) She couldn't barely walk to the end of my street without seeming in pain, and now she jogs to the end and back. She couldn't get herself off the floor, and now she can make it up and out the back door to take care of business outside, instead of in. When her friend Sadie comes over to play, Emma bounces all over the backyard like she used to - she'll tire Sadie out! Emma's an old dog, and she gets winded just like all old dogs do, but she looks happy now when she plays - she actually CAN play now. It took a while for Emma to get to the point where the arthritis was seriously affecting her quality of life, and it has taken a while to get her back to the point where she can move unassisted, but I really do believe in Nutramax Dasuquin with MSM, because I've seen what it's done for my beloved "puppy". I used to call her "Fluffy Bunny" because of how much she bounced and played, and I can call her that again. I am continuing with the Dasuquin. The expense is worth it, to know it's helping Emma.

This is a good quality supplement for your dog that suffers from joint pain associated with arthritis. I highly recommend. When I adopted my dog he already had moderate arthritis. This did not eliminate his pain. He still needs pain medication. However, I am hoping it will help slow down further deterioration and hopefully it is helping with some of the pain with his joints. It's is a hard pressed chewable that can be crushed and disolved if needed. I personally crush it, then mix it with a little water. Then I mix that with his kibble. He won't take it by itself. He is too picky.

Great product. My dog says he loves them

These are a life saver for anyone with a dog who is older or who has suffered a CCL tear. Awesome product!

Works well on our elderly dog. We use it since more than a year.

Despite the product title these are for LARGE dogs, which is actually what the "technical details" section says. Don't worry if you make the same mistake I did as you CAN get a refund, despite what it says it you try to process a Return. If you go to the Support chat, it will process a Refund, but you don't need to Return the item... so, do what I did and donate it to my local dog rescue!

I have a 7½ year old German Shepherd. I started giving her Nutramax twice a day for five weeks. She now gets one a day. I have noticed a difference. Her hips don't seem to be bothering her to the extent they were while out on our walks. She has more energy. Great product.

Highly recommended product. My 11.5 year old Golden Retreiver diagnosed with Arthritis is remarkably better. He was having trouble getting up and would often fall down while on a walk. He would often groan in pain and became disinterested in most things. But now, he is back to his old self (one needs to remember he is still a senior dog). He gets up easily and has started enjoying his walks again. He is galloping after his ball again and it has been a while since I have heard him groan. Took 2-3 weeks for the initial result and we continued to see gradual improvement beyond that. It has now been 4 months and the results are marvelous. My dog weighs a little over 30 kg and we give him 3 tablets daily, one each in the morning, afternoon and night.
