Product Description

Cosequin plays an important role in maintaining optimal joint function. Healthy articular (joint) cartilage is crucial to joint utility. Cosequin helps support cartilage production and protect existing cartilage from breakdown. Cosequin is the only glucosamine/chondroitin sulfate supplement that has been shown safe, effective, and bioavailable in peer-reviewed, published, controlled, U.S. veterinary studies. Cosequin is manufactured following standards similar to those practiced by the pharmaceutical industry.

My dog tore his cruciate ligament a year ago. The vet urged surgery. Other vets urged surgery. But our guy was older - 9 - and huge (Malamute 140 pounds with his winter fur...15 pounds lighter when we shave him in the summer), and 2 of his dog friends who were the same age died while in surgery.At that same time the NYT published a study done on people with torn ACLs and their treatment. The results were statistically even between those who had surgery and those who opted out of surgery and did physical therapy. We didn't want to risk losing our dog to surgery and so tried out a few things, kind of nuttily bolstered by the NYT report (on humans). We treated our dog as though he'd just had surgery, and limited his walks to 5 mins a day. We iced his leg. We massaged his legs with tiger balm. We gave him traumeel to handle the pain (which suited him much better than the prescription pain killers). We chopped up vitamin c and niacin tabs in his food for the first 30 days. We changed his diet to a high end dog food that contained no wheat, no gluten. We cut back on his food so he wouldn't gain weight (which he didn't). We took him to a vet trained in accupuncture, which our dog loved. He used to do a little gimpy dance whenever we took him back to see her. And we gave him the Nutramax Cosequin DS Plus with MSM. We stopped the traumeel after a while, the niacin and vit c, the ice, and increased his walk time. We kept up with the Cosequin throughout. He kept getting a little better, a little better every week. And finally, about a month ago, almost a year later, we noticed that he was back to being the guy he's always been. We attribute this brand of Cosequin to a large part of his recovery. Everyone notices how peppy and agile he is now. We can now continue with our long walks of 1+ hours. We will continue with this Cosequin until the end of his time.

Works ! August 20, 2011

First let me say I did not think this would work for my dog. I hoped it would but I had my doubts. I have a 2yr old Bernese Mountain Dog. At about 9 months he developed a slight limp on his left front leg. It seemed to come and go and the vet was fairly sure it was Pano. So we basically waited it out. The limp seemed to stay and after a few more vet visits and a few yelps of pain we decided to x-ray all of his legs and joints. There was nothing to be found. We were told bring him home and try and rest the leg, which we did. This seemed to help. But there were still days that he looked to be hurting. We then got another BMD as a friend for him. One day while running around the yard playing with her he started limping and yelped in pain. Back to the vets. After a long and painful (only for me) examination the vet proclaimed," I cannot get any pain response", she thought it might be tendon or muscle related. She recommended MSM for inflammation.He gets sick with pain and nsaids meds. Try it for a few months and by fall if it's not better we will do ultrasounds and see what we find. After some research I decided to try the Cosequin DS plus MSM. Many people said it worked, few said it did not work. After about a week I started to see some difference in his gait and he seemed more confident with that leg. He still does not walk 100% perfect but his leg does have some atrophy. After 6 weeks and a bottle I am convinced enough to buy another and lower him down to the maintenance dosage. I am impressed with the difference in him and will continue to use this product. If the limp gets worse or the yelping reappears I will do more testing. For now ultrasounds and surgeries are hopefully not in his future. I would give this a 5 star but for the cost. On a side note I am so impressed with his results I have started taking a human form (but cheaper) of this supplement !UPDATE 9-23-11Just wanted to say product has worked great. Spent a week hiking in Maine and he still is doing good. I switched to one a day and he did start hrmphing when he laid down so his maintenance dose is two pills a day. While hiking there was no limping or stiffness at all. I am so happy with this product that I tell everyone I meet about it (that owns dogs.)UPDATE 2-2-2012 Change to 5 star ! I don't care what it costs ! (only kidding Amazon)Knock on wood ! This is still helping my boy. Doing maintenance with 2 pills daily 100lbs seem to be the working dosage. I just wanted to say that since he has been using his leg more even the atrophy that he had is much less. Only issue I have now is that Amazon keeps running out ! Make sure to keep a spare on hand.

Dogs Love It September 28, 2011

I tried a few brands before finding this one, and the dogs act as if it is a treat! Our bigger dog tore his acl and had surgery a year ago, and in a recent x-ray the vet remarked how good the joint looked! I think the addition of this into his diet has helped tremendously in his healing process.
