Nutra Thrive Reviews - Is It Legit or Just Hype?

As a Bay Area resident, I have long respected Dr. Gary Richter. In fact, he even spoke at our breed conference. I bought 12 jars of the supplements. However, some of the business practices I have encountered make me feel like I’m buying from a snake oil vendor. The most recent one? I just received an email to review the product which asked me what my rating would be. I selected "Average," which is actually my experience using this product with 4 dogs for 3 weeks. I was taken to a customer service contact page. When I backtracked and hit "Excellent," I was invited to leave this review. In other words, no one is allowed to leave anything except favorable reviews. Very shady. Also, the infomercial, in particular, was just overkill, like something you would see on late late night TV. While Dr. Richter does rely on traditional veterinary medical science with proper scientific method, much is based on "his experience." While anecdotal evidence sometimes is "best evidence" in science, I would feel better if he could provide some scientific studies as to the alternative "holistic" ingredients in this supplement. Just gave me a bad taste in my mouth, especially for such a well respected professional as Dr. Richter.

My dog Sasha just loves it. I sprinkle some on her dry and mix the rest into her wet food and she licks her bowl clean every time. She thinks it's a treat and so behaves that way.

I have noticed in the month that I have been giving it to her so far, her coat is softer and she has less fur fall, which isn't really that much for a pit bull to begin with, her skin looks much better too. She doesn't scratch as much from her allergies. She is a happy, smiley dog to begin with and I think she is even more so. She is like a puppy all over again.

Doctor' explanation of nutrition advantages caused me to purchase Nutra Thrive. Order shipped on time and packed well. Easy to mix with the dog food and I have seen a remarked improvement in the liveliness of my little dog, her alertness and general "pep" in her step!

It has been about a month since we started using Nutra Thrive on my two terriers, a male, Keller who is aged 11.5 years, and Maggie, who is almost six. They get a measured amount of kibble (Rachel Ray Nurish). Keller has been a picky eater for the last couple of years, but since we started putting this powder on his food, he finishes his food and licks his bowl until it shines. Maggie has NEVER had anything left in her bowl, so it's hard to judge how much more she likes with Nutra Thrive. Other effects like energy and stuff will have to wait until it stops raining here.

One thing I would like to know is will this same formula going to be available in a tablet form at any time soon? As a disabled person I know it would make it easier to give with meals.

I'm very happy with Nutra Thrive for my 8-year-old poodle. She seems to have more energy now than before. My only complaint is that she sometimes has room-clearing farts, consistent with a change in diet which she hasn't had lately.

Sammy Bear turned 4 months today. In the 2 months that I've had, he has tripled his weight. He came with parasites, we're healed with medication. I've been using Nutra Thrive almost since I got him. His diarrhea is healed. He's an active, healthy, beautiful Maltipoo. I'm very happy.

I started using Nutra Thrive for my new rescue girl, Luna, about 3 weeks ago. I add a little water to the powder when I put it in her food twice a day. She eats up every speck and licks the bowl!

Luna is a very laid back Lab/Pointer mix. I hope that this powder will keep her healthy for years to come. I have become more interested in the dog's food since our last four dogs developed different kinds of cancer and each had to be put down. Our Chesapeake was only 8 years old. It is very hard to figure out what a healthy diet for a dog consists of because everyone just wants to sell you their product. Right now I am mixing a small amount of good quality kibble with a small amount of canned food, and the Nutra Thrive for her meals. I have only had Luna for 2 months, so can't say I have noticed any changes; she just seems happy and healthy. She also gets some appropriate table scraps, but I want to make sure she doesn't become fat, so I watch her portions.

Duchess is eating all of her crunch crunch! No more diarrhea...she loves her food! I don’t have to add any chicken or anything like that. She is 11 and 1/2 years old and I want to keep her as long as I can. I’m a recent widow. Thank you so much. I’m sure to keep her on it and have recommended it to my daughter and her best friend. Duchess is a lab.

My old lady dog who is almost 14 responded better to this than the glucosamine pills for her joints. It has also helped immensely with their gas. We have two large labs that for whatever reason were both extremely gassy and stinky. This has helped with their smells.

Nutra Thrive is great for my dog. She looks forward to eating it every day. She loves the flavor it adds to her dog food. She looks overall happier and healthy.

We are so happy with Nutra Thrive and would recommend it to all pet owners.

I am a new user to Nutra Thrive. I am still debating if the cost is worth it, I'd say that's the biggest drawback. The product itself seems to be doing what it claims. I have German Shepherds and they all have very silky coats. At first they didn't want to eat it, but now they eat it just fine. I wish it was cheaper but will probably buy again. I care about the health of my Shepherds, they are prone to so many different diseases. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
