Using on two large dogs, Newfoundland and St. Bernard. Newfie has ACL type issues on both back legs, which have caused arthritis in her hips. Doctors all said she needed surgery, but had to lose 40 lbs first. This is difficult for a human let alone a large dog that spends most of the day sleeping. We live in the country, so lots of walking around daily, but when it hurts, you just don’t. So...while we work on the weight loss, I had to find something that would help her walk without the pain. Nutra Thrive seems to be doing just that.
As for the Saint, Nutra Thrive has increased her already big appetite. She is extremely active for a 5-year-old, so weight gain hasn’t been an issue, yet. I have had to reduce her dosage...it causes too much awful gas. I can deal with a bit of stink of this keeps her young a bit longer.
Both eat the same diet food, with the Newfie getting half the serving. If we can’t get her to lose the weight, at least now she can take short walks with us without collapsing.
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
