ExtendJoint Care for Dogs

I have a 70 pound 5.5 year old black lab border collie mix I got as a rescue. My girl was diagnosed with hip dysplasia two weeks ago. My vet gave her melaxocam to help with her pain. I gave my dog the prescription medication for a few days with no real signs of improvement. My dog was still incredibly sore. She would not want to put weight on her right leg and had a hard time sitting or getting up. I dreaded seeing her in pain and suffering.I was trying research what I could do for my dog. I saw a hoky add for this product come up in a YouTube video I was watching. The ad was one of those things that sounded too good to be true, and I easily could have dismissed it. Anyway, I wrote down the product information as I figured I had nothing to lose. Long story short, I read a lot of reviews on this, and they are mostly positive. I decided to take a chance and order this product. I am glad I did. As of today, my dog has been on this for 8 days. My dog can easily get up and sit down. She limps a lot less, and she appears to be feeling a lot better. I am going to keep my dog on this product.I have also done a few other things to help my dog. My dog is drinking a little colloidal silver every day. I also apply DMSO gel around her effected hip. I also started all of those treatments prior to starting Extend. I saw the greatest improvement when I started her on this. Her improvement has also been exponential. However, my dog does appear to get a little stiffer at night as I give her this and her pain pill with her breakfast. Anyway, I bought another glucosamine supplement with hemp oil I just started giving her tonight. I am not giving my dog too much of any of the ingredients as my dog is on the cusp of needing two packets of Extend due to her size. I unfortunately cannot afford to do that with this product which is why I supplement this with Point Pet Hemp Oil Joint Care.Edit:My dog has been on Extend for 11 days and also gets two Point Pet Hemp Oil Joint Care chews a day (Started that 2 days ago). My dog started taking the second supplement two days ago. Anyway, my dog is feeling a lot better. I quit giving my dog her prescription medication a day ago. I also stopped applying DMSO to her sore hip today. My dog has been more active, limping less, and has an easier time getting up/sitting down. My dog is not quite back to being her old self, but she is doing some moderate running, and everyday she does a good 20 minute brisk walk around the dog park while her sister tears around with other dogs. I also forgot to mention that my dog loves the taste of this. All I have to do is sprinkle it over her food. She will lick the bowl clean.Edit 2:This supplement has made a real difference with my dog. My dog has been on Extend for 21 days and the Point Pet for 12 days now. I know the Extend played a significant role in her getting better as I could tell it was helping her a lot within a few days of me starting her on it. Anyway, I am happy to say that my dog is on both of these supplements and nothing else. She is still getting a little better every day. I just have to get my dog to lose a little bit of weight to help take a little stress off of her joints. Getting her to lose weight will be easier to do as she is becoming more active.Edit 3: My dog has been on this and the Point Pet stuff for over a year. She is still doing good. She has an occasional day where she gets sore, but that is usually her fault for overdoing it the previous day. My dog was also able to lose some weight do to her increased activity in conjunction with a slight restriction in dog food. My girl is now right around 60 pounds which also helps her sore hips.Edit 4: This stuff was amazing for my dog. I did not mention earlier that my dog was so sore one day early on in her diagnosis that I thought I was going to have to put her to sleep. The day she was so sore she could not even get up on her own. I did not want to see my dog suffer and have no quality of life. I just wanted people to know my dog had hip dysplasia pretty bad. Anyway, I recently had to put my beloved dog to sleep due to terminal liver cancer. This powder gave me 5 extra years with my dog. My dog was also living a happy life and was getting around very well. I am eternally grateful for that!

This has been a life saver for my Lab/Rottie! She is 12 and got valley fever awhile back. She had been having a hard time walking and gets really stiff. We started her on Extend about 5 or 6 months ago and after the second month she was back to running and playing more. He still has her days where she does too much and has to rest more, but without Extend I don’t think she would be walking and playing how she does! She loves this in her food too! We put it in her food and add water and she licks her bowl clean! It doesn’t smell and the taste doesn’t bother her. It is a quality product that really helps!

My 9 year old pitbull mix was having severe problems walking. She takes gabapentin and carprofen. I started her on cosequin too. No real difference, but then I found this. The reviews said it worked. It actually does. She's still on the other 3 meds/supplements and the change has been good. We were thinking that her life was winding down and now her mobility and energy as well as attitude is so much better. Very, very happy.

This product helped both my senior pups. I add a few drops a water to the powder supplement and make a gravy then I pour it on my dogs food. My one dog doesn’t mind the taste but my poodle only took it by syringe. The key is consistency. Once I saw progress I stopped and I could see a decline. After about 2-3 boxes my dogs were running around again, no longer limping after sitting for to long periods Took off one star because of the price is really high. But you get what you Pay for. In this case a quality supplement. I wish they made one for cats.

My 7 year old Corgi girl was having a very hard time getting around, and frequently was unable to get up off the floor or walk without limping or raising her back left leg. If she fell asleep on the floor, she would be crippled trying to walk after just sleeping for a few minutes to a half hour. I was worried, but having long had osteoarthritis myself, could appreciate how disabling the pain could be. I would give her muscle rubs, and tried CBD oil, all to no avail. After reading reviews on this product, I decided to give it a try. I didn't have much hope that it would work, but my baby was in pain and I didn't want to go the surgery route the vet said might be necessary. So, I took the plunge and bought this product.Well, it's now been a month since I began giving it to her every day, mixed in some heavy cream and a dash of regular milk. I found that she would not eat it if it was put on her wet food, and after trying to mix it in just milk, it would not dissolve. Once I put it in some heavy cream, it dissolved right away, probably because it is fat soluble; then I diluted it with a dash of milk. This she would drink without resistance. It took a bit longer that a week, but I began to notice that she was getting around more easily, and seemingly with less pain. She no longer held her left leg up off the floor when she walked. Today I received my second box of Extend. I am absolutely convinced that it has made all the difference in the world for her!! Today, when I opened the door for my other four dogs to go outside, I saw her literally jump up off the floor and run for the door lickety split.! She has absolutely gotten better after taking Extend.I think the product is very pricey, and I wish it were more affordable. I would probably use it on two of my older dogs, a 9-year old Lab, and an overweight 5-year old Aussie Cattle Dog. Both are showing some signs of mobility issues, but nothing like the issue I had with my Corgi girl. But the price is just too expensive for me to use on three of my five rescue dogs, so I'll use it only if they are unable to walk or begin limping with pain. Unfortunately, I often find that if one has only one fur baby, the cost of a product, though high, can be justified. But when, like me, one has multiple dogs, and living retired on a fixed income, I just cannot justify that kind of expense. I wish I could, but times are hard now, especially during the Coronavirus pandemic. I just can't afford $150 a month to treat three dogs. $50 a month is difficult enough, but her health had deteriorated to the point she would not go outside, couldn't walk with limping and lifting her painful leg, and stopped showing any interest in playing with the other dogs or me. Now she does all those things again!So, I highly recommend this product for any dog experiencing pain or difficulty walking or running due to joint problems. I can only praise its efficacy in alleviating the discomfort and increasing the dog's mobility back to a more normal level. It definitely worked on my Corgi sweetheart, and I couldn't be happier for that. I just wish I could afford to use it on my other two dogs who could probably gain better mobility from it, but since they are not immobilized or in obvious pain yet, I will wait.
