For dog owners

Peter from Stoke

3. months ago, my 9 year old dog had all but lost the use of her back legs.I had to help her into and out of my campervan rear doors. where there is a step.
After a visit to the vet who x-rayed here but could find nothing wrong and supplied anti-inflammatory tablets, she was lifted back into the van.
i went to o2b healthy in Elms Street, Wakatu estate and bought some K9 tablets. She has had just 3 a day since then and is running round like a 2 year old! The difference was noted within a week or 10 days.
4 weeks ago her best friend had a similar problem, he has been having six a day and is almost back to normal.
His vet could find nothing wrong except old age, he is 14.
Now I have some Joint Ultra, which has a similar formulation and I am walking much better. At 82, I don't expect to run a marathon!
I am not normally someone who swears by alternative medicine, but here are two dogs that would have had to be put to sleep without the treatment.
The o2b healthy website is well worth checking out.
