The Missing Link Hip & Joint + Probiotics Supplement 1lb Bag - Superfood Powder for Dog Cartilage & Bone Health, Joint Mobility & Flexibility

I’ve used this product for years, it’s a miracle worker for elderly dogs especially. I can see the difference in my dog when she’s taking this steadily.

I give this to my large dogs to help with their mobility and protect their joints. No negative side effects or stomach issues

I'm a first time puppy owner and my little one has a hip that cracks and she has limped before after intense exercise. The vet says it is nothing, but of course I worry. So I did a lot of research and decided to add a joint supplement to my puppy's diet. From my research, a glucosamine supplement was the way to go.First we tried some glucosamine tablets. They could be broken up into little pieces or eaten whole. Whatever I did, I could not get my puppy to eat them. The smell or the taste was bad to me, and it clearly didn't work for her.Next I did some research on powders. It came down to a few of them and, after comparing products and the prices, I thought this was the better purchase. So I bought this one and I have to say I am happy with the product.It is quite easy to dose! Get a 1/2 teaspoon or full teaspoon measuring spoon and follow the directions. My puppy is about 52 pounds, so I use two scoops. The product does not cake together in the bag but does stay together. It is easy to sprinkle over the food. The product does have a little bit of a smell, but it is not overpowering and does not linger. Most importantly, after my puppy eats the smell is not really on her breath--which is good because my puppy loves to give thank you kisses after feeding her!As for the breakdown of the product, I am not a chemist so I don't know if it contains what it says it contains. But I will note that I have not observed my puppy limping since we have been using the product now for about a month or two. Her coat appears to be a little lighter of a color and maybe even a little thicker. She has not been sick or had an upset tummy with this product. She has normal energy.Most importantly, she really enjoys this product on her food. Given the option, she would absolutely take food with this product sprinkled on it over her normal food. And since I have not taste-tested it, I will take it as a sign it tastes very good too.I will be reordering this product and I would recommend this for any dog who may be developing any leg or hip injury or condition. The product appears to be working and, at the very least, there are nutrients in it that help a developing puppy. Whether you have a puppy or elderly dog, give this a shot!JUST NOTE: It must be refrigerated once open and is only good for 90 days once open. So if you have only one dog, make sure you get the properly sized bag so it does not spoil before you can use it all.

We have a 5 year old Rottweiler/Doberman mix who was recently diagnosed with double elbow dysplasia. It's common in large breeds, and his is pretty severe. He weighs about 100 lbs, and loves to run and play. After particularly hard days of running and playing, he would limp the next day. After happening a couple times we brought him to the vet, where they discovered the dysplasia. They said it's not operable, and even if it was, probably wouldn't be terribly successful because of his size (he's very tall). They gave him a medication to take for a week while recovering from his acute injury, but after the second day he ended up with a stomach ulcer and had to be taken off the pain medication and put on numerous other medications to heal the ulcer and prevent infection.We used to use the skin and coat formula for him, so I looked for a missing link for hip and joint and came across this product, which had stellar reviews. I was skeptical, but figured it was worth a shot. I'm so glad we chose to try it, because it has changed his life.He's still very active and loves to run and play, and since starting this (he's been on it for a little over a month) he hasn't woken up limping even one time. He doesn't seem to be in any pain, and surprisingly, his coat is GORGEOUS now. He always had dry, kind of flaky hair near his lower back, and his coat is incredibly shiny and healthy now, and it's cut down on his massive amount of shedding (he still sheds like crazy, but it's not as severe).I cannot recommend this product highly enough. Try this for your dogs before you go the expensive route with pain medication from the vet. It's safer, and in my option, more affective.

My min pin was having trouble with a luxating patella. He seems to be thriving now on this supplement. With not much issue anymore at all. I mix it I. With some wet food and my dog eats out no problem.

Our old dog seems to have a lot more life and mobility since taking this. On that basis alone it looks like a worthwhile product. As the dog of course cannot confirm this for herself we have to infer this is a benefit since nothing else has changed. A bit surprised to learn it needs to be refrigerated but no real hardship - will be re-ordering.

Our girl had knee surgery at the age of 8 after many years of running with her owners (which she loved). Unfortunately aging and wear and tear got to her and her ligament failed. After her surgery (January 12th, 2021) we were looking for a supplement (Dr. recommended) to help in her healing. We found this product, I read the reviews and decided to take a chance. The product was delivered on Oct 9th 2021, and now, (January 17th, 2022) I am writing this review to say, "wow... what a difference we have noticed". She's like a 2 year old again. Playful, active, (no long runs) chases squirrels, runs through the woods, jumps up on rocks (hasn't done that in months) has power in her back legs and overall is without stiffness and pain. I highly recommend this product and will definitely buy another bag when this one is finished.

This is the first time that I have bought this product through Amazon. Previously I had gotten it at a local pet food store that discontinued it. I was happy to find that I could buy a five pound bag for $150.00 vs the $40/1 lb bag. This stuff is a miracle for my dog, it has given him energy and excellent mobility. He is eight and previously had a TPLO in his right knee. After using this he is no longer limping and the left leg looks solid so no more operations in his future. It has also helped to clear up the dry crusty nose that was a symptom of his lupus. He acts and looks like a much younger dog and this is because of this supplement.

c'est un produit et un complément complet car cela fait plusieurs années qu'elle en mange et vous avez un excellent service
