Twinkle is 29 and the vet said she would never be entirely sound. She ambles around on the lead rein with Daisy who is 2. We have her on Equimins Flexijoint and she has satyed sound for the whole if a fairly busy summer hols. On Sunday she tripped in a rabbit hole and ended up with a big fetlock. I did give her a bit of bute and a cold hose Sun pm and Mon am but by Mon evening the swelling had gone and she is now sound again. I have everyone over 12 on this supplement. I cannot praise it enough. It is no-where near as expensive as Cortaflex etc.

Hi fetherston I looked up this supplement and I did immediatly wonder where they sorced their shark cartiledge from as I am sure this is some dodgy trade of cutting off sharks fins and throwing them back alive in the sea to die a very slow painful death! I could be completely wrong but I think this should be checked out?

Yes, there is so much going on in the world that we think get created in a lab but in reality it's made with animals. Makes you shudder to think of. I have been using the vital equine joint sup for our dog and that has really helped her with walking. It's good to look around and see other makes and what they have in them |
