Allergy & Immune Support Success Stories
Dear Springtime,
I want to send a big THANK YOU for giving my sweet female Golden Retriever such a positive improvement after I started Longevity and Bug Off Garlic Granules. Amber, who will be 11 in June, has severe bilateral hip problems. Nobody knew, as I had been hiking and speed walking with her for seven years until my oldest Golden had to be put down. Amber was mourning her, didn't want to move for almost three months and then started to limp. After I demanded an x-ray, it was detected she had severe hip issues. Six months later her right hip popped. She was in serious pain and I thought Amber had to be put down, but luckily my vet did a salvage procedure and saved her. I somehow heard about Longevity and ordered the product, and boy, did she like it. With Longevity and swimming she is now almost without any limping and no pain. She loves her meals; the bowl gets licked to nothing. Even my new Golden, at three years old, is on Longevityand she loves it too.
I even recommended it to Brenda my neighbor for her old Duncan who was suffering with his joints. She reluctantly ordered some and got hooked because Duncan, who is 11, is doing so well. I use your Bee Pollen and Tonic Blend and I must admit your business is truly amazing and your love shines through your products.
I want to thank you for giving me three more years with my sweet Amber, a retired therapy dog. She is my little angel on earth and my soul mate.

Dear Springtime,
On February 9, 2009 I sent an order to Springtime to purchase Longevity for my 12 year old Golden Retriever, Duncan. He has had two doses of two scoops since 2/19/09 so far and has shown more pep and enthusiasm already. He has problems in his right hip. Also, he has hypothyroidism for which he takes meds. Without Longevityhe has a lot of stiffness and pain and he starts to limp and favor his sore legs. He won't come upstairs so much, and he has runny reddened eyes and his skin itches a lot. The vet says it is allergies, but as soon as he gets started back on Longevity he improves instantly and within a week or less all of the above symptoms goes away. This is why I totally think that Longevityis helping him. The thyroid condition causes him to lose energy and he would lay around with no interest. The thyroid meds help, but when I started Longevity he started to behave like a puppy again. It's really amazing.
Well I have to tell you, I was very pleased with the customer service that was extended to me. I can still remember good old fashioned customer service and it is refreshing to find a company that still holds the values true to their heart. In this day and age it sure is nice to know that there are still some great companies left. You are a faith restorer, a breath of fresh air.
Sincerely,
Brenda Kobayashi, California

Dear Springtime,
I have three dogs. All are registered therapy dogs. Two of them are rescues who were in poor shape when I got them. All my dogs and my cat receive Springtime supplements. One of my rescued dogs has experienced extreme transformation.
Lassie, my Rough Collie, was 106 pounds when she was rescued. We needed to shave all her hair off because she was totally matted. She was nine years old with joint problems because of the weight along with a lot of other physical problems. She was immediately placed on a diet but I was very concerned about nutrition. I fed a super premium food along with Springtime supplements (Longevity, Joint Health Formula, and Bug Off Garlic Granules). It took nine months for her to lose 40 pounds, and another nine months for all her hair to grow back.
The old, matted, overweight lame Collie that no one wanted one and a half years ago is now a ten year old dog that everyone wants. She is healthy, happy, and beautiful! Thank you, Springtime!

Dear Springtime,
I started Anonymous on Longevity in April, and she will be 12 in September, and can already see an improvement in her actions. She is an active therapy dog and has been working since 1998, but I noticed she was sleeping more and more. Now instead of being down for the count at 8 p.m. she has a nap, and then is up and chasing the laser pen beam for a while at 11 p.m. I admit sometimes I want to grump but she is happy and moving freely even with joint issues in a hind foot, so we play for a while and then go to bed. My dogs have not shown any reluctance to eat the product on their kibble.

Dear Springtime,
I would like to share a story of my 11 year old Greyhound, Scarlet. She was diagnosed in January of 2008 with oral cancer by her regular vet. I took her for a second opinion, which confirmed my worst fears. I was in the process of ordering from Springtime when the Longevity caught my attention. It appeared that some research with spirulina had benefits with oral cancer. I have given her a scoop and a half a daily. She has not suffered one day and is the same happy girl. We have achieved buying time and she has the same quality of life she has always loved. Thank you Springtime, we are nearing a year.

Dear Springtime,
There was a brief period where I stopped giving my now 13 year old Golden Retriever, Teddi, Longevity This was due to a financial "glitch." I noticed a huge decline in her energy level and in her breathing. It was very disconcerting to me. I decided after experiencing that scary time, "glitch" or not, I would not sacrifice her wellness and will continue to provide her with your Longevity product. For a 92 lb, 13 year old she is very active, fairly energetic and her quality of life is excellent. Thank you for that!

Dear Springtime,
I had commented on the way your Longevity made my dogs' coats look and feel great. Axel is on your website comment page with his picture on the beach and Lexi actually had the red in her come out wonderfully after a few months on Longevity. Well, times got hard as everyone knows and we could not afford it for them. They have been off of it for a couple of months now and we can really see the difference. This is why we have ordered today. The heck with the price… Longevity is worth every penny of the cost and more. Lexi has four ten day old puppies now and I want them to have every benefit of the Longevityfrom the moment they begin to eat. We will have their mom and uncle on it the moment it arrives.We also noticed that we are getting brown urine spots on our front yard where they urinate. This did not happen while they were on the Longevity. Thanks again for such an awesome product! And never will our babies be without it again.

Dear Springtime,
I have an active Jack Russell and recently purchased your Longevity supplement. The decision was based on both the value of supplements for health and hoping to reduce shedding problems. Bridget has been getting this product for just under two weeks and her shedding has been reduced by more than half as evidenced by the amount of hair in our Dyson animal vacuum cleaner. This is a great relief to us, as we both have allergy and sinus issues along with being picky about our home. She absolutely loves the taste too. I was impressed with the value in comparison to similar products selling for ten times the amount. (I got in on one of your Buy Two Get Two Free deals.) Thank you for a fine product at an affordable price.
Sincerely,
Mary Phillips, Florida

Dear Springtime,
I am a long time breeder who attends shows, hunts, breeds and also judges occasionally. Longevity was the first product purchased with retired dogs in mind but was soon added to the menu for everyone including bitches in whelp and even added to the initial weaning diet of four week old pups. Once they are on it, they stay on it for life.
Longevity certainly produces all the desired results and more as indicated on your website. Without exception, all of my dogs, 14 in total, love the taste. What was not mentioned on your site is the fact that my dogs teeth, even the 14 year old (whose teeth have never been cleaned), are now amazingly free of plaque after eating Longevity. I know this is due to using your product alone as no other variable was introduced to their feeding schedule during the time frame. I attribute this unmentioned bonus of "cleaner teeth" to the key live food factors found in Longevity.
Additionally, my 14 year old, who was going downhill fast, now has a bit of spring back in his step and my 12 year old terrier is acting like a puppy again. As advised on your website, I also use the Bug Off Garlic Granules in conjunction with Longevity during the warmer seasons and am equally glad not to have to use the advertised chemical concoctions to keep flies at bay.
I was amazed and extremely grateful to have found such a superior additive to help keep my kennel of Conquest Jack Russell Terriers of all ages healthy. I am a strong advocate for Longevity and have started to endorse your product to my clients.
Yours in sport,

Dear Springtime,
Greetings from Los Angeles! My friend Nicolette and I both own elderly black and tan wiener dogs. Nic told me about Longevity after meeting Nike, a German Shepherd who was destined to be put down three years ago and has been taking Longevity and is still here! Playing with her ball, living in N's neighborhood and being a great testament to the power of your product! Since then we BOTH have been walking and talking advertisements for your products. I've emailed friends across the country, at work I've given away your catalogs. At the dog park we've both shown off our "new" dogs and how shiny their coats have gotten and Gigi has lost weight! Our two dogs (Chow Chows) are getting in their new fur and are getting more energetic. The elder Chow is playing like she used to! Amazing, simply amazing. I heard just this morning that a woman I had given a catalog to has started her Husky on Longevity because he was beginning to get hip problems. He's too young to lose! More later! Thank you again from the west coast! It's not the quantity of life - it's the quality! :)

Dear Springtime,
I just wanted to let you know what a lifesaver your Longevity product is for my Labs. I raise puppies for Leader Dogs for the Blind and both of my Labs were pulled from the program as Cagney (far left) has problems in her left hock and Cedar (far right) has elbow issues. I have noticed the biggest difference in Cagney. Before using Longevity she was reluctant to run or even swim and with mild exercise would be stiff on that leg. Now she smiles as she runs and spends a lot more time in the water retrieving. Gracie (middle) is off to start her new career in July. She has been on Fresh Factors since I got her at seven weeks and has had excellent joint health. Thank you so much for making my puppies happy and healthy.

Dear Springtime,
Winnie is a rescue pug that I got in September of 2007. She was found wandering the streets and was completely emaciated, dirty with skin and ear infections, overgrown toenails, and was unsprayed with a major hernia. The shelter that had her guessed her age to be about 12, and tried to talk us out of taking her, I saw a diamond in the rough and took her home.
When we got her home I noticed something "off" with her walking. She underwent surgery in May of 2008, having a femoral head osteotomy. Basically they cut off part of her leg bone. She was put on two different pain meds and even though it has been awhile, I have never been completely happy with her recovery. The vets have said she will never be normal and since she is elderly, we just should manage her pain.
Recently, on a trip to the emergency vet for severe gastric problems and a possible seizure, it was determined that not only does Winnie have degrading cartilage in her "good" hip, she has disc disease throughout the spine, from her neck to her tail as well as problems in both shoulders. We have had to take her off the NSAIDS, they were causing her too much stomach trouble and she cannot stomach most brands of glucosamine, chondroitin or msm.
This fueled me into looking for other treatment options. I read some recommendations on the site Dogster.com from some of your customers. I ordered the catalog and read about Longevity. I went out on a limb and ordered it and received it a week ago. I was so worried it would cause her stomach problems, she is so sensitive!
We followed your instructions with just a little sprinkle for a few days and now she is up to half a scoop twice a day. Now, it has only been a week, but I wanted you to know that I will NEVER be without this product for her. She had no gastric troubles at all. But the difference in her is amazing!
First, she has had a good coat because she is on a premium diet. But all of a sudden, she developed almost long "pants" on her rear legs! She is using both legs equally now, where as she favored one over the other before. I just spent a half hour playing tug of war with her! Tug of war with a dog that is supposed to be crippled! She is insisting on going for walks again! She is beating up my male puggle and actually growling during play! She finished up playing, panting! Panting! She was playing hard enough to work up a sweat!
It's obvious to me that she is feeling great. She isn't supposed to jump on the furniture, but I can't hold this dog back! She is running and jumping and playing and it's like this dog is five years old. If this is what happens after only a week, I can't wait to see her in a month.
I wanted you to know this because I was feeling really low after her last diagnosis. I was so afraid she was in pain and that we would lose her. She still continues to take a pain reliever, but that's ok. We may be able to wean her down in her dosage if she keeps feeling this good.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for giving my little old pug some spunk back!

Dear Springtime,
I have an 11 year old Border Collie/Australian Shepherd cross, Ceilidh (pronounced Kaylee) who, two years or so ago, tore her ACL ligament. At her age I did not want to put her through surgery so I looked for alternative treatments to make her comfortable and able to get around. Also, I noticed that her hips were getting stiff and she was just starting to act like an old dog - seemed reasonable to me as she was nearing the high end of her expected life span. She found it hard to get her hind end up in the morning and she was moving slowly and clearly didn't feel very well.
I found your company online and started with your Joint Health Chewables. It definitely seemed to help and when I was reordering, I noticed your Longevity. Couldn't hurt, I thought, so I put her on it. Little did I know. The change was dramatic. Not only can you not tell that her ACL was ever damaged, she has started trying to play with my two younger, much larger dogs. She bounces up with noticeable energy in the morning like a youngster, runs out with the boys and looks to me to throw her something to catch! That hasn't happened in years! Her coat has come back thick and beautiful and you would never know she is 11 except for the white muzzle. All of her old human friends who noticed her slow decline have asked me what in the world I was doing to create such a dramatic change. Everyone has noticed. I am so grateful to you people for this formula and I have recommended it to all my friends with old dogs and even give them jars to try. Thank you for helping my dear old Ceilidh to have a vigorous and pain-free old age. Keep up the good work and I will keep telling my friends.

Dear Springtime,
I just wanted to take a moment to let you know how much we appreciate your Longevity product. It proved to be the essential component in keeping our German Shepherd, Budvar, alive and healthy for over 15 years.
When Budvar's health started to decline, we started giving him Longevity and he devoured it with enthusiasm. His weight, coat, agility and overall demeanor improved tremendously, giving him several more happy years. The local vets were amazed at his improvement and wanted to know what we had give him, as they didn't think that he should even be alive, much less happy and healthy. They had people calling our house asking about what had helped our dog regain his health.
I have given many people samples of Longevity to try on their dogs, as well as catalogs to order from. Repeatedly, they have been amazed at the improvement. I work with the local Humane Society and recommend your products to fellow animal enthusiasts.
Again, thank you for your wonderful products. We now feed Longevity to all of our hunting and pet dogs, and they are all doing great.

Dear Springtime,
I have my dog, Giselle (Shepherd/Lab/Rottie/Hound mix) on Fresh Factors and Bug Off Garlic Chewables. They have done wonders with her allergies; her coat is thicker and no more itching, scratching or biting herself. And the biggest thing to me is, no more odor. But my cats just love Fresh Factors. If they hear me shaking the bottle they come running… And my animals' coats are amazing. Thank you for your amazing product, and believe me I have tried a lot with my dog's allergies.

Dear Springtime,
My dog Spike has been on your products for eight years now. He does not need his medicine as much. He never has fleas thanks to Bug Off Garlic Chewables. I recommend your products to my friends all the time. As you can see in the picture he plays like a puppy. You see, he had had an injury when he was a puppy and was not comfortable. Your Joint Health Chewables makes a difference for him, and without all those side effects. Keep up the good work and your prices are reasonable. My other dog, Sadie, is on your products too.

Dear Springtime,
We have three dogs. This is our Irish setter, Copper, who is a legendary tick magnet. We have used two or three different brands of repellent over the years. None of them kept the ticks off. We tried Bug Off Garlic Chewables and "Voila!" the ticks are gone! They don't even get on for a ride into the house. We have quit using the expensive repellents entirely. Bug Off Garlic Chewables is a great product, and being a Connecticut resident I would recommend it to anyone with animals.
Sincerely,
Rita & David Conrad, Connecticut

I have always had great results with your products. I have used them, for quite some time now, and do not ever plan on my dog being without them. I give Tanika, my three year old Cocker Spaniel, Fresh Factors, Bug Off Garlic Chewables, and Spirulina Wafers. I really feel this helps her stay healthy and I am sure it will result in her having a more comfortable and enjoyable life in the years to come. I want to do whatever I can to ensure she is healthy and strong in her senior years. I love her dearly and want her to be with me for many, many years, and I know with your products I can do my part to help this happen. Thank you!

Dear Springtime,
I have two Pembroke Welsh Corgis that just started the Bug Off Garlic Chewables a couple of weeks ago and I notice that they aren't scratching the fleas anymore. It's so nice that you have a healthy way to fight fleas on my dog. I am so tired of spending money on the spot-on treatments that don't really work.

Dear Springtime,
Hello, I just wanted to let you know that you guys are just great! I have been purchasing your Bug Off Garlic Chewables tablets for my dogs, C.T. and Courtney and it works wonders!!! No ticks at all. I just purchased a bottle of Joint Health Chewables for my older dog…My oldest dog, C.T., she will be 11 years old does not act like she is old. She started limping then I started buying Joint Health Chewables and they have done a great job…Thank you so much for being there.

Dear Springtime,
I have had wonderful luck with your products. Many years ago I had a Cocker Spaniel who was developing joint problems in her feet. Her feet were actually turning in, like she was pigeon-toed. A friend told me about Fresh Factors and in one week, her feet were back to normal and she was running around like a puppy. After that I decided to give it to my other two dogs.
Now I am on another set of dogs (everyone else is in heaven), and from the get-go I gave them Fresh Factors. I have two Cockers and a Golden. Recently, I tried Bug Off Garlic Chewables, as I did not like using the chemical for fleas and ticks. Well, it works. I should have known it would. We are flea and tick free! And no more harsh chemicals! I am delighted!
Thank you so much for your wonderful products.

Dear Springtime,
So far I think they are great. One of my Petit Basset Griffon Vendeens, Abby, has had multiple digestive problems, was diagnosed with IBD, and then had a mysterious illness that was never diagnosed even at a top veterinary school. So far she is doing well with the Longevity, Omega 3-6-9, and Bug Off Garlic Chewables. I am very careful what I give them. Her episodes have diminished to only a few a year.

Dear Springtime,
Once again, a product of yours has saved the day, or should I say, saved the dog. Last year our six year old Cocker Spaniel, Tuffy, had a droopy eye and jaw after we applied a well-known flea preventive. I had noticed that every time we applied the flea preventative that Tuffy would be lethargic for several days. However, this time there was real cause for concern. She looked as if she had a stroke. I immediately upped her Fresh Factors and took her to the vet. She lost her blink reflex in her eye, but her jaw droopiness has disappeared. We decided there would be no more flea preventative applications for our baby. So we started her on one Bug Off Garlic Chewables every morning. The results were impressive. No fleas all year and we walk Tuffy often and there are squirrels and chipmunks in our yard. Tuffy is not especially fond of the scent of Bug Off Garlic Chewables, but takes it as long as we have a few Fresh Factors (which she loves) and a treat to follow. Once again, we are extremely happy with your products. I wrote you several years ago about how the Fresh Factors extended our other cocker's life by 4 years. Harley has passed now, but we know the Fresh Factors allowed him to be with us longer than expected.
Very Satisfied customers,
Glenn & Mary Long, Illinois

I just love Bug Off Garlic Chewables and Fresh Factors! I can't believe my Australian Shepherd, Savannah, has no fleas or ticks. Her digestion has improved and her fur is so shiny. My mother purchased these products and I will be a repeat customer.

Dear Springtime,
I just had to write to tell you how pleased I am with your Bug Off Garlic Chewables. I have both my personal dogs and my foster dogs on it and we have yet to see a flea. That's unheard of in Houston in June! My kitchen does tend to smell like an Italian kitchen gone wild with garlic twice a day, but it's a small price to pay. I haven't had to apply spot on flea and tick products at all this summer – a huge savings to my pocketbook…
Kindest Regards, Liane Pomfret, Texas

Dear Springtime,
I wrote to you once before and we want to thank you again. Duffy was getting tick-borne issues about every year until I started using Bug Off Garlic Chewables last year with amazing results. He had a blood test done just recently and it was negative for the first time in about six years. Your products (Fresh Factors, Joint Health Chewables and Bug Off Garlic Chewablesare amazing and Duffy takes them every day.

Dear Springtime,
I started using Bug Off Garlic Granules back in the middle of June. My dogs have been bug and flea free since that time. When I sit outside with my five "kids," I am the one bothered by mosquitoes and other bugs, but not the kids! I haven't even had to put a chemical flea treatment on them – this stuff is great! We haven't had to battle with ticks this summer and I really feel that it is keeping them healthier!

Dear Springtime,
I just wanted to let you know how great your products are. I have a nine month old West German Shepherd named Ace and he is vibrant and healthy thanks to Springtime, Inc. His breeder recommended your products to me and I have used them since Ace was just a tiny tot at eight weeks old. The results are amazing. He's healthy, happy, and just plain handsome. Your Bug Off Garlic Granules granules keep him repelled against bugs and the Longevity product keeps his health strong and his energy level at its peak. Thank you for providing such terrific products for our "Fur Kids"… Sincerely, Gabrielle Carney, New Jersey

My pets have been enjoying your products for about five years now. My Springer Spaniel thrives on Joint Health Chewables, Fresh Factors, and Longevity. The Bug Off Garlic Granules is a marvelous pest preventative for our horses and dogs. We remain fly-free in a horse neighborhood.

Dear Springtime,
I've been using the combination of Longevity, Omega 3-6-9, and Bug Off Garlic Granules. My five year old Rottie, Amalia, loves it! She has so much energy; she's even picked up speed on the agility course! So much that I have to keep up with her now…This is a great combination and you've got good products. My holistic vet says you're a very reputable company and a lot of her other clients buy your products.
I'm sold! Thanks for making a healthy product that, together with the raw and holistic food I give Amalia, should help her live a good quality life!

Dear Springtime,
I just wanted to say thank you so much for your products. I have been using the Bug Off Garlic Granules for several years and all seven of my Borzoi boys are happy and flea free.
We go to a lot of field trials during the fall and winter on the east coast, and I have never had a problem with ticks or fleas since using your wonderful product… Here on the coast of Georgia, fleas were horrible, but not anymore.
Keep up your good work.

Dear Springtime,
I give Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewablesto my Dachshund and my Sheltie. My Standard Wirehaired took it all her life! I love the shiny coats, clear eyes and the activity levels. My Sheltie never limps and she does have joint issues. I recently took care of a black German Shepherd named Gretchen with many skin and ear problems (swelling, itching, and redness). I immediately put her on Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables (three of each per day) and now she is so vibrant. Her dull, lifeless coat and hair loss have disappeared. I swear by your products.

Dear Springtime,
I want to thank you for creating such amazing products. My dog Oscar is a four year old Bullmastiff that suffered an injury in January of this year to his knee while playing with a friend outside in the ice and snow. A friend of mine suggested putting him on the Joint Health Chewables, which I did. He has been on it since February and we also put him on Fresh Factors since May. I also took him to a specialist who recommended that we put him on an all natural alfalfa supplement and fish oil to help his joints and ease his pain.
At the time of his first vet visit, the vet believed that Oscar had torn his ACL and might need surgery. But we decided to wait and see how the supplements did. At his last vet visit, the doctor believes that Oscar healed himself and his knee is better. Oscar Fresh Factors, Joint Health Chewables) for as long as they are helping him!

Dear Springtime,
I always give out a supply of Joint Health Chewables and Fresh Factorssamples (plus a catalog) to folks who share their dog stories with me and their results are joyfully inspiring!
Enclosed are photos of Boots, our thirteen year old "Springtime Champion," Lady, his three year old sidekick (also loves her Joint Health Chewables) and me (Joint Health Capsules, Spirulina Tablets, etc.). My husband, too, is a fan. We have a professional paleontological services business putting dinosaur skeletons together for museums, movies, etc. Currently, we are prepping and display mounting an 80 foot Sauropod named Apollo in our 1895 barn/dino hall and workshop, so we must stay strong and healthy. Springtime is our very best supplement program and we all thank you for your consistent attention to quality, service and that very real aspect of personal interaction.
Yours in health,
April James, Pennsylvania

Dear Springtime,
After using Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables on my first Dachshund, Noopy, for 15 ½ years, I was impressed how long she lived and how healthy she was! When we got our new baby Dachshund, she needed surgery on her knee and hip, which the doctor literally re-broke and put back with a plate and screws. So I put our new "Noopy" on the same products. It has now been two weeks since the cast is off and she's running around like normal! I know the Fresh Factorsand the Joint Health Chewables are supporting her natural healing! Thank you!

Dear Springtime,
I have two nine year old Border Collies (littermates), Ben and Flurry, my kids with fur and the loves of my life! Two and a half years ago, Ben started having trouble with his leg. I just thought we were playing too hard, but as it turned out he had an ACL injury (stifle). The vet said surgery; my pocketbook said "no." I found a doctor who made a brace and that worked just fine.
Fast forward two years later. Ben has lost weight and his brace is too big and cuts into his skin; at the same time I run across your ad while surfing the internet. On the testimonials alone, I order Joint Health Chewables and get Fresh Factors free. Less than two weeks have gone by and the change in both my dogs is shockingly amazing! We went mushrooming for about four hours yesterday and only found both dogs were tired but no stiffness at all. When we woke up this morning I thought for sure Ben would at least be lame, but NOTHING! I honestly can't believe it. I've called most everyone I know today to brag about this product. Also, Ben has had an itchy torso for almost a year and that has seemed to disappear... and we're right in the middle of allergy season! As with most of us our pets are just as important as any other family member. You not only provide us with products that bring results but you make it affordable and use quality ingredients.
Thank you Springtime! It's nice to know we can all play hard and still walk the next day! My next purchase will be for me!
Warmest regards,
Amy LaForest-Thomas, Michigan

Dear Springtime,
Attached is a picture of Chowder, a Sheltie that I adopted almost three years ago. He is eight or nine years old. In January of this year, Chowder got up one morning and was very lame on his front left leg, with a badly swollen wrist. He could not walk without crying out in pain.
I took him to the vet who found that he had two tick-borne diseases. We treated him with a month's worth of anti-inflammatory and antibiotics. Unfortunately, about 10 days after we stopped the medication, he was again lame on the same left front leg.
X-rays determined that not only was his wrist swollen, but that he also had an issue in the left shoulder. He went back on the anti-inflammatory for about 10 days, but once again he came up lame soon after finishing it.
Our vet then decided to put him on the anti-inflammatory for six months to determine if we could stave off surgery.
Soon after, I took Chowder to be groomed and the groomer told me about Springtime's Joint Health Chewables. I immediately ordered two bottles (together with two bottles of Fresh Factors). After Chowder finished the first bottle of Joint Health Chewables (in 45 days as I was doubling the dose), I took him off the anti-inflammatory to see what would happen. That was close to three weeks ago and the limp has NOT returned.
I'm thrilled and so is our vet, who only very reluctantly ordered the six months of anti-inflammatory for Chowder. Chowder, however, is not thrilled, because now he has to go for a walk every day. We have some more weight to get off of him so he's back to walking again. (Chowder weighed approximately 55 lbs. when I got him and he's now down to about 40 lbs., with 5 more to be taken off.)
Thanks for this great product.

Dear Springtime,
This is Jean with Boomer who was once in your catalog... Boomer is now five and still has his leg that we were told he was going to lose from joint issues in the elbow by the age of two. He is getting a little limpy as he is out Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables. Also, he has been playing with the puppies. They jump on his back and chew his ears and bite his tail. The big 'ole, love bucket Vermonster just whimpers and wags his tail.
The reason why Boomer looks so forlorn in the photo with the ball is that he knows Ollie, his Mom, and Diggity Doo Dog (the puppies' mom) are hot on his tail after his ball!
Truly,
Jean Wolinsky, Vermont

Dear Springtime,
Your product Fresh Factors has changed my 11 year old chocolate Lab, Guinness! Fresh Factors was referred to me by a friend and in less than two months I have noticed a difference. He moves easier (actually runs again), his fur, which was suffering, is better and he is much more alert.
I've sent you a great action picture of a very happy dog! I was out throwing the ball to Guinness this morning, and just a few months ago, he could barely get up!
Thanks for your product!

Dear Springtime,
My 1st German Shepherd named Jovi lived a better and longer life with the help of Fresh Factors. Now I feed Star, my second German Shepherd, Fresh Factors to make sure he stays healthy and has a good life before he ever has joint problems. They have made his coat so pretty… I recommend it to everyone! Star thinks the tablets are treats instead of vitamins.
Please don't quit making Fresh Factors. I plan on keeping Star healthy for many years to come.

Dear Springtime,
Hannah, my beautiful twelve year old Border/Chow mix, can now run down and catch our city's unsavory rodents thanks to Springtime's Fresh Factors! (Without Fresh Factors, she struggles to get up from a lying position.) Their liver flavor allows me to feed them to Hannah right out of the jar! Consequently our seven year old Pom mix, Nipper, begs for her own Fresh Factors!
Thank you for the happiness you've brought to my family and me;
especially Addison and Madeleine, our two children, who love all God's furry critters!

especially Addison and Madeleine, our two children, who love all God's furry critters!

Dear Springtime,
What awesome products you have! We were really perplexed at our Shepherd mix's itchiness. Nothing seemed to help her. We tried antihistamines, food changes, you name it, but with no relief. We found your catalog and ordered Fresh Factors right away. I must say that Zayle no longer has the itchy, crawling skin problem when you touch her! Zayle is seven years old and Fresh Factors has put a "spring" in her step! Thank you!
I also use Tonic Blend and CoQ10. I feel great. Your products really work.
Keep up the good work – we appreciate quality and natural products.
Best regards,
Sherri Bushee & "Zayle," Vermont

Dear Springtime,
We have two German Shepherds that are 17 months old and a Standard Poodle that will be 12 years old this June. Trixie, the Standard Poodle, has been on Fresh Factors for a little over two years, and the pups, Luther and Leyna, since they were eight weeks old. I noticed Trixie was getting a little slow at getting up and not playing as much with the pups, so I ordered some Joint Health Chewables to add to her Fresh Factors. What a difference I see in her and it has been just shy of a week. She plays longer and harder with the two Shepherds and is no longer slow in getting up. She just has a lot more energy now!
They also take Bug Off Garlic Chewables for flea and tick control. I have a lot of faith in your products, which is saying something nowadays. Thank you so much for making quality products that we dog owners can trust.
Sincerely,
Stephanie Calhoun, Pennsylvania
Note: Sadly Trixie passed away May 11, 2009 at the age of 14.

Dear Springtime,
I just wanted to send you my testimonial about the products we use on our dog.We got Bruce, a black Standard Poodle, when he was four months old. He is our second Standard Poodle. As we always walk our dogs for about 50 minutes, we noticed by the end of the walk we were practically dragging him home. We also noticed a pretty big "sway" in his hips as he walked. We made an appointment and the x-ray confirmed what we had expected. At six months old, he already had hip problems. As a matter of fact, our vet said he had not seen a case this severe in a pup so young, except for one other time! He gave us a prescription for a pain killer and explained that Bruce would probably be put down at a very young age due to either liver problems from the meds or the severe joint issues he had. Months passed and we normally had to give Bruce half a pill each night because you could tell he was in pain
. Out of the blue, we received your catalog in the mail and decided to give your products Joint Health Chewables and Fresh Factors a try. Fast forward to Bruce's exam this past fall. Our vet comes in the room and was totally amazed at the change in Bruce! As a matter of fact, he thought it was a different dog! Bruce now runs (which he didn't do as a young dog), plays, and is the picture of a vibrant dog! We cannot thank you enough! We now feel Bruce will live a long time versus the three or so years we had been told. Although Bruce still has the "sway" when he walks, since starting on your products, we have not given him the meds at all!
Sincerely,
Rick & Connie Dail, South Dakota

Dear Springtime,
Whenever my dogs are about to receive treats when they come in, they expect Fresh Factors. They love them so much. Every dog we have had loves them, including different breeds, sizes, and ages. Not only do they love them, but also we don't have to force them to eat them like other vitamins. They prefer your product over unhealthier treats…that are horrible for their teeth and have little to no nutritional value.
My older dog actually got excited when we shook the bottle. Up to age 18 he still could eat them because they were easy on his teeth. He loved your product. Receiving Fresh Factorseach day was the best part of his day.
Thank you for having a great, healthy product like Fresh Factors. It has done wonders in my dogs' diets, supplementing what they just don't get in their daily food.
Sincerely,
Devin Davis, Wisconsin

Dear Springtime,
Rylee was in pain, emaciated, and neurologically unsound, and weighed only five pounds at three years of age. She couldn't stand without wobbling nor could she walk without falling over. She was a miniature Black & Tan Dachshund surrendered to Dachshund Rescue of North America. This was my first experience with a rescue in that kind of shape.
I had heard of Springtime supplements from another member of DRNA, located on the East Coast, so I thought I would try them. Rylee was put on crate rest, premium quality foods, Joint Health Chewables, Fresh Factors (every other day) and the results were amazing. She was triple dosed Joint Health Chewables daily for about two and a half weeks, then down to twice a day. Within a few weeks, this little dog didn't look anything like the dog I had picked up in the pouring down rain on a Friday afternoon. She was gaining weight, was alert, spirited and playful – all of the things she wasn't when she came into rescue. She left my care and was adopted weighing three pounds more than when she arrived. Here are a couple of photos of Rylee before and after. Joint Health Chewablescertainly saved this little girl and gave her back her life.
I use Joint Health Chewables and Fresh Factors religiously for all of my rescue Dachshunds. And, there are many stories within DRNA of how Springtime has given life back to these little ones in our care.

Dear Springtime,
A year ago, my beloved Husky/Shepherd, Luna, died at the age of 14 and a half. I had had her since she was one year old. A friend, who is also the town Dog Officer, recommended Fresh Factors for Luna, as she always gives them to her dogs and rather liked the results. I really believed it enabled her to live a full and rather long life. When I adopted Dakota (a mixed breed Australian Cattle Dog and Total Unknown rescue dog) I started her on Fresh Factors right away. The big surprise is that they are her favorite treat. At bedtime, when I give them to her, she rushes to get into position, wagging and smiling. After she eats the tablets, she insists on licking my hand, apparently looking for crumbs or powder. It has become one of the high points of our day.

Dear Springtime,
I just wanted to write a quick note to say thank you so much for making such a wonderful Fresh Factors. I have an eight year old, large breed German Shepherd named Gracie and this past winter she began showing signs of major joint issues. Since I started her on Fresh Factors she has so much spunk again and loves to play with our three year old Shepherd, Samson. What a wonderful product you have! Thank you for caring about animals and making a product that is so beneficial to them and to their owners. We get to have our Gracie back and Samson has his playmate again!

Dear Springtime,
Just wanted to write a quick note to tell you how much I like your Fresh Factors. I have seen an improvement in my dog Boomer's coat – and he is already on a premium diet. Also, he had a slight lump at his shoulder that came and went – now completely gone since finding your product. He is a Labrador so he is very active. I'm sure with Fresh Factors he will have a long, healthy, and happy life.
Thanks,

Dear Springtime,
I wanted to let you know how well the Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables have helped our dog. Rosa is a 6 year old Golden Retriever and has the beginning signs of joint problems…she was 3-legged and would not get up and do anything. We tried different prescriptions, some with NO results and some with little results. A friend happened to mention her dog was on Fresh Factors and it was worth a try. After one week we could see a difference. I added the Joint Health Formula tablets and she was greatly improved. She still has a slight limp but she runs, plays and climbs to the top of the hay bales and feels 100% better. Our vet was amazed. Our vet called me a while back and had about the same situation with another Golden. I gave him a catalogue and talked to him about six weeks later and he said the dog was also almost fully back to normal. Keep up the good work.

Dear Springtime,
I wanted to let you know that your products, specifically Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables for dogs, gave us an additional year and a half with our Weimaraner, Miller. He ruptured a disc in his back several summers ago and would literally fall on the floor in pain. After watching him go from a healthy weight to skin and bones on traditional meds, I took him off them and prepared to have to let him go. A friend recommended Fresh Factors and we gave it a try. Within two days he was trotting around the backyard like he hadn't been able to do for months. He never again had the debilitating pain attacks. We lost him to bloat in February, and while I miss him each and every day, I feel blessed that we had extra time with him, which I'm sure we wouldn't have had if it wasn't for your products.

Dear Springtime,
My dog, Jack, has had horrible allergies for several years (he's around nine now). Jack is a Lab/Aussie/BC mix; 65 lbs. We've tried changing his diet, and even found a doggie dermatologist/allergist who put him on yet a different diet (higher in fish oil), along with desensitization shots (not steroids!). They have helped, but every summer I have a cabinet full of lotions and potions to fight the itch. I couldn't scratch his chest or rub his tummy without his feet kicking to scratch. His armpits and belly were bright pink every summer and he was truly miserable. This year it started early in March with warm weather, when everything started to bloom. In April, I got your catalog in the mail and on a whim I ordered a bottle of Fresh Factors. I gave it to him hesitantly because I didn't want a new product to set off an allergy rash. It's now July, and no itching! This is usually the worst time of year, but not this year! I truly consider this a miracle for Jack! This is the first summer he is able to enjoy with no pink skin or scratching! I can rub his tummy and scratch his chest and see only pleasure in his eyes. You'd never know Jack has allergies, and there was a time I considered him the "boy in the bubble" because we tried to shelter him from everything. Thank you just isn't enough. You've improved Jack's quality of life, and ours as well.

Dear Springtime,
I am a Big Fan of Springtime, even got a few friends to get Fresh Factors for their dogs. All of my dogs are on it. (Oh, that reminds me; I need some Joint Health Capsules for myself, LOL) I love the ingredients in Springtime's products and fully believe that the company is "in it" for the benefit of our pets. That goes a long way with me...
Again, Thank You!

Dear Springtime,
I am so proud of her! Corky is a terrific dog and I really believe Fresh Factors has allowed her to stay with me as long as she has. The photos I'm sending were taken last week. She was 14 years old in July! By the way, she flushed and retrieved the two pheasants she's "showing off" with her dad!

Dear Springtime,
I want to thank you for manufacturing quality products. My Lab, Lucy, has had severe allergies for the past six years. She has been on many different medications and injections and I was washing her with topical shampoos to keep the allergens off of her. She was tested at a doggie dermatologist and she is allergic to every grass and tree in Florida. She has been on a special grain-free diet and still had to take medications to keep her from chewing off her feet and skin.
A friend told me about the Springtime supplements. I have tried several others that were twice as expensive and they never worked, so I thought I would try ONE more time and what a miracle happened. I started Lucy on Omega 3-6-9 and Fresh Factors and doubled the dose for her weight. Within one month, I had her almost completely weaned from her medications. She is so much better now; her coat is so soft and she hardly sheds. She rarely chews on her feet, only with normal cleaning behavior. We now have a new Chocolate Lab, Molly, and I have started her on the supplements. Her coat and skin are looking fabulous. I am so pleased with the outcome of these wonderful products. I will be ordering the Bug Off Garlic Chewables since now the mosquito and flea season is here.
Thank you so much Springtime,

Dear Springtime,
This letter is long overdue. We started giving our chocolate Lab, Herschel, your products about four or five years ago when he was nine, in hopes that it would help stave off the joint problems that were starting to affect his hips and hind legs. He suddenly could not walk upstairs without help, and would bark at us to help him. Within six weeks of taking Joint Health Chewables and Fresh Factors, he was able to walk up the stairs and jump on the bed again. In addition, his coat was much shinier than any of the other dogs in the neighborhood and he seemed to have more zip. Although the problems in his spine and neuropathy are now catching up with him at age thirteen and at 90 lbs, we truly feel that Springtime supplements have allowed Herschel to live a longer and more energetic life. We will continue using your products for him, as well as for future pets.
In addition, your customer service staff is always helpful and friendly, which adds to the positive experience. Thanks for everything.

To our shock and amazement my ten year old female beagle has the same ailment as my husband. Both have bad right hips. Thanks to your company, we have been using Fresh Factors.

Dear Springtime,
I have been giving my 13 year old Akita, Windy, Fresh Factors for about five years now. Recently, she had colic and had to have major surgery to remove her spleen and part of her stomach. Remember, she is 13 years old! Well, it has been two weeks post surgery and Windy is back to her old self. She is eating, taking her walkabouts around the farm, and running when the mood takes her. I believe if it were not for Fresh Factors this old dog (in age only) would not have survived. The vets are amazed at her astonishing recovery. Thank you, Springtime!

Dear Springtime,
Thank you for your great products Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables. A few years ago, now 11 year old Kapo was diagnosed with severe joint issues from tail to neck. The medicine administered by the vet made her sleep all the time and she had the potential for liver damage. Since Kapo had been on Springtime products, she is like a puppy again, playful and peppy. She is truly enjoying life. I have told several friends about the products. They have all been able to enjoy the benefits as well by watching their aging canines improve their quality of life.
Thanks again,

Dear Springtime,
I have been a faithful buyer from you since Noopy, my Dachshund, was injured 10 years ago. She is now 14 years old and she is on Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables. About three weeks ago I took her outside and she fell over sideways and could not get up!!!! She was diagnosed as having a stroke or vestibular disease (nerve damage between brain and ear) they could do nothing but give antibiotics and wait to see what happened. I was devastated to see my Noopy so sick and falling over every time I put her down. After two days I doubled her Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables and it has supported her natural healing process! After one week she improved more and by two weeks she was her old self and maybe better than before!!! How can I ever thank you for giving me back my Noopy? After 14 years she is my best friend, my companion. Your products are truly a blessing. Thank you and bless you all.

About three weeks ago I took her outside and she fell over sideways and could not get up!!!! She was diagnosed as having a stroke or vestibular disease (nerve damage between brain and ear) they could do nothing but give antibiotics and wait to see what happened. I was devastated to see my Noopy so sick and falling over every time I put her down. After two days I doubled her Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables and it has supported her natural healing process! After one week she improved more and by two weeks she was her old self and maybe better than before!!! How can I ever thank you for giving me back my Noopy? After 14 years she is my best friend, my companion. Your products are truly a blessing. Thank you and bless you all.

Dear Springtime,
I have three Labs that I got from a breeder that wouldn't use them for breeding because of their hip problems. All three are on Fresh Factors and are doing just GREAT! I have used Fresh Factors for over ten years with all the Labs that I have had. I will not stop giving my "kids" these chews. They are certainly worth the expense, which isn't much if you want healthy, happy dogs!

Dear Springtime,
We gave our daughter a Border Collie for her tenth birthday. She named him Elvis. He is now 14 ½ years old. A few months ago, he developed a growth by his left knee and was having difficulty walking. We took him to the vet, whom took an x-ray and said that Elvis probably had bone cancer and that his leg bone looked like a sponge. He was given less than two weeks to live.
About that time, I mentioned to a friend at work, Jeff Variel, what we were going through with our companion. He said he had these great vitamins he was going to bring and he'd like Elvis to try them. We were introduced to Fresh Factors. That was over three months ago. Although, we cannot take Elvis on long walks any longer, he has more energy and is in great spirits.
Elvis continues to eat his regular diet and takes two Fresh Factors vitamins per day; no prescription drugs. We just want to say, THANK YOU, for your wonderful product! You have changed our lives.
Respectfully,
Mary Lesowske, Oregon

Thank you for a fine product. My dog is 15 and without Fresh Factors, he has problems walking. With Fresh Factors, he runs off black bears and raccoons.

Dear Springtime,
I have an eight year old Norwegian mix, Kate, which suffered a partial cruciate tear two years back. She has been on Fresh Factors since that time and has not had to have surgery. A recent exam has shown much improvement, and no sign of any tear. She also takes Joint Health Chewables in the winter months only. Awesome products!

First, let me say thank you on behalf of Akita Rescue society of Florida (ARSF) for your generous donation of Springtime products. The Akitas are very appreciative, especially the old dogs. They feel better already.
Also, I'd like to thank you for the interest in my Akita, Maxx. He continues to do very well on the Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables. Within two weeks of my order, Maxx was a new dog. He moves as though he is five years old, not 11. Maxx and I thank you so much for your wonderful products and for helping my sweet boy have a new lease on life. He is such a wonderful old man. It's hard to imagine my life without him and thanks to Springtime, I'm hoping we will have more time.
I'd like to share a little about Maxx. I told you that I got him from ARSF, where he lived for eight years. He originally came into rescue at age eight months. He had run loose on a busy street corner for about five months and survived by local businesses trying to feed him and catch him. His owner, a seventeen year old young man had been hit by a car and killed; Maxx had been with him. In his rescue bio, Maxx was referred to as the modern day Hachiko. I'm sure you have heard the story of Hachiko, the loyal Akita from Japan. My Maxx never left the street corner, waiting for his master to return, until ARSF finally caught him.
As I said, he lived in rescue for eight years. People were interested, but Maxx was very fearful of people and would back away and bark at the ones who came to look at him. So he was never adopted. I came along and worked at building a relationship with him. It took a couple of months and then it happened. He is my best friend, and has now been my dog and fierce protector for almost four years.
So again, thank you for the difference your products have made to my friend's health and well being. I will be forever grateful.
Sincerely,
Carolyn Money, Florida
Dear Springtime,
I was awaiting an order for Fresh Factors and comments made to me at a rally trial a couple of weeks ago came to mind. Several spectators were amazed that my six year old Bulldog, Delta Dawn, was able to compete in rally and still jump (eight inches is required for the jump for a dog her height) at her age. I attribute this athletic ability to Fresh Factors.
Delta Dawn's grandmother was seven when she showed signs of age-related joint symptoms and a friend recommended Fresh Factors. I immediately started her on it and there were no further indications of joint issues and she was able to romp around with her kids till the age of eleven. Her son showed some limping at age two and the vet talked surgery. I started him right up on Fresh Factors and he is now nine and a half and never had that surgery and is still keeping up with Delta Dawn. We decided to do preventive care with Delta Dawn and she's been on Fresh Factors since she was a little pup, and I feel it is due to Fresh Factors that we have those qualifying and placement ribbons we so proudly display. I always highly recommend Fresh Factors to fellow exhibitors.

Dear Springtime,
After Fera died in October of 2009, (she was 11 and had a stroke) I vowed to have no more dogs!
Well, Dec 6th I took in a miniature Poodle mix that had been picked up off the streets of LA in July and spent two months at animal control, where she was three days from being euthanized when Poodle Rescue found her.
Nobody even responded to her photos posted on the web. Her condition was horrible. I looked at her picture every day for a week before I took her.
Her coat and skin were worse than "horrible." I didn't know what to do. Then I remember the box of Fresh Factors, in the closet- unopened. Fera's last order.
I began giving them to Shannon. Her itching is gone, her skin is no longer red and her coat is beautiful and luxurious. The furnishings on her legs have all grown back.
I rescued another full bred Miniature Poodle at the end of January and put him on Fresh Factors immediately!
Both of these kids look forward to their "cookies" every morning. So glad they are scored because they can't handle a full tablet, but gobble down one cracked in half!
We are sure on the right track once again.
Thanks so much,
Bonnie Price, California

Dear Springtime,
Fresh Factors are great! I have a Samoyed, Cherokee, who has skin allergies and had lost most of his beautiful coat. I started him on Fresh Factors and his coat is more beautiful than ever. The vet wanted to put him on allergy shots but we tried the Fresh Factors and it is like a miracle to us and Cherokee! Thank you for all of your products. I tell everyone that has animals to try it.

Dear Springtime,
I have done business with you for many years. I feel Fresh Factors really helped my German Shepherd. He lived to be fourteen years old, and it helped his hind quarters noticeably.
I now have a 3 ½ year old golden Labrador named Cody and started him on them early. He is a beautiful dog, helped along by Fresh Factors. Cody is in great shape. Who wouldn't be at 3 ½ years old?

Dear Springtime,
We have used your products since the 1980's. A friend told us about Fresh Factors when my show dog, Oz, developed severe joint problems and pain. He was not quite six years old but a large Rottweiler. Within a short time, Oz was running around like a playful puppy. We gave Fresh Factors to all our dogs since then: Sheeba, Shadowland, and Chachi. All lived longer, happier, and healthier lives. We are now giving Fresh Factors to our current dog, Dulce, a mixed Black Lab/Great Dane. We have also used some of your people products. Thank you for marketing excellent products that perform as you say they will, at an affordable price.

Dear Springtime,
I usually order by phone, but I wanted to let you know how great I think your products are. I have an eight year old Australian Shepherd named Taz. He had Valley Fever and took pills for that but he just didn't act normal. After the last round of pills I would not give him any more. He takes the Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables I ordered and he is now a different dog. He now runs and gets his toys and wants me to play with him. He is more active like he used to be. I really think it is due to your products and I will keep giving them to him. He loves them and if I forget he will remind me it is time for him to get his treats.
Thank you so much,
Shirley Shewey, Arizona

I love your products. Since I have started using Fresh Factors, my 10 year old Black Lab has more energy, has stopped scratching and biting her feet and her ears are better. She has been on Fresh Factors for the past year and she now acts like a "young girl" again!! I have seven dogs and I am using Fresh Factors for all of them—wonderful!!! Thank you!!! Your products really work!

Dear Springtime,
I have all my dogs, young and old, on Fresh Factors. I use Fresh Factors to supplement a home prepared, all natural, raw diet that I am now using instead of (supposedly high quality) commercial dog food. Prior to the switch, I had a very itchy Poodle who scratched all night and kept me up, a Yorkie/Pom/Terrier type who vomited bile EVERY day and had cherry eye, and a black Lab who constantly gobbled up inanimate objects, and ended up needing major surgery to remove shrink wrap from her stomach. Since the switch of the diet and addition of Fresh Factors, the Poodle is no longer itchy, the Terrier, Buttonhead, never vomits anymore, has gained weight, looks better, and his cherry eye is about 80% reduced. And the Lab has stopped her bizarre gobbling of objects. I also have the Lab on Joint Health Formula. I absolutely love your products and feel I would never be without them. I think of all the money I have saved on my vet bills since I started Fresh Factors and natural diet. I love your products!

Dear Springtime,
Your Springtime supplements will be remembered for the longevity my Great Pyrenees, Morgan, experienced. She passed away just a few weeks ago and I am heavily grieving her absence in my life. She was only a few days short of 14 ½ years old!
About five years ago, Morgan was limping badly and would not put any weight on her rear leg. She was diagnosed with cancer in her ankle. It had eaten away at the connective tissue and I was told to put her to sleep or amputate the leg. Morgan was still very full of life and there was no option other than to let her live even if she had to live without a leg. I was very sad at the time to learn she had cancer.
After some post-surgery difficulty (learning to walk on three legs), I immediately put her on Fresh Factors upon recommendation from a total stranger who had seen me with her limping along. I had also put her on Joint Health Chewables and kept her on an all natural food diet.
I had truly been blessed to have my Great Pyrenees well into her "golden years." Morgan had defied the odds of surviving cancer as an amputee since this breed normally succumbs to bone cancer. She had lived five years beyond the amputation. She even refused a custom made wheelchair, and lived another nine months dealing with some joint problems. Her will to live was undeniable.
I will continue to tell others about your wonderful products. Thank you, Springtime, on behalf of my beloved Morgan.
Very truly yours,
Catherine Wielenta, Tennessee

Dear Springtime,
Boomer is an English Lab and as you can see he is beautiful. Boom fell and chipped his right elbow at five months of age. Long story short, we were told that he was going to end up with such terrible joint issues that it was possible that eventually he could lose the leg. He was limping terribly and I doubled his Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables. He is going to be three in August and does not limp one bit. He is just a big 'ole love bucket of a dog! His favorite thing is, of course, to swim and he would not be able to do that without his front leg – thanks!
Scaredy Cat was the runt of the litter and was not a healthy kitten. One pupil was larger than the other and he would wobble and fall sometimes. I started him on Fresh Factorsas a kitten and he is now seven years old…
Thank you for being so great to us over the years!

Dear Springtime,
We have a kennel that breeds and trains Coonhounds. We have been using your products for older "gals" mainly just to give them that little extra boost as they age. The difference in these dogs is phenomenal.
We started using Fresh Factors for an older Shepherd/Rottweiler named Bandit, who was diagnosed with cancer and had joint problems pretty bad. Upon taking Fresh Factorshe had much more spunk and lived another two years with a good quality of life. He lived 14 years which is wonderful for a dog his breed.
Another wonder story is Old Kate who is a legend in the Coonhound breed. She won national hunts and as she aged she became just very, very special. When diagnosed with cancer in early stages we were told she had six months to a year. I immediately started Old Kate on Fresh Factors. She lived an active life for another three years and finally passed away of a massive stroke which was her second one. I doubled her Fresh Factorsupon the first stroke, and she not only pulled out of it but was romping with some puppies. She had her final stroke three months later, and I have to add it was the stroke, not the cancer at all, that finally took her life.
We have two other old gals that are quite special to us that are getting your Longevity now. Their energy, brightness of the eyes, their shiny coats and the general well being more than say enough for the quality of your fine product.
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

Dear Springtime,
Our dog, Katy, 11 years old, was getting stiff and limping. We took her several times to the vet because she was having trouble walking and getting up and down the stairs. We sometimes had to carry her up and down the steps. We started her on the Joint Health Chewables. After a short time, she was walking better. Now she's running up and down the stairs and playing vigorously with our new dog, Roger, which is twice her size. Katy is much happier and definitely healthier.
Thank you,

Dear Springtime,
I ordered Longevity for my dogs a few months ago. I have three dogs with different issues (ages from three to twelve). My oldest, Sonny, is a 12 yr old Beagle mix with shoulder issues and a growing cyst on one side of his neck. We had the cyst looked at and aspirated by a vet and it was determined to be a fatty deposit. The only problem was that it continued to grow in spite of efforts to control his fat intake. Because of his age, we wanted to avoid having it surgically removed if possible. After about two months on the Longevity, I felt his neck, and surprisingly, the cyst was shrinking! It is now half the size it was before the Longevity. Is it the product? I guess there's no way to be absolutely sure, but I am sure we'll stick with it.
I am happy to report that his fatty cyst is continuing to shrink! I will keep you guys posted and hopefully the next email will be about it being completely gone.
Thanks,
Alison Aughtman and "Sonny," Alabama

Dear Springtime,
I just wanted to drop a line or two and thank you for your wonderful products. I've used your products for over six years and recently started all my dogs on Longevity. I did this due to the spirulina component of the supplement and its tremendous benefits. I take your Spirulina Tablets with excellent results and thought it would also benefit my dogs (German Shepherd, age six, English Setter, age ten, English Setter, age two and Mini Doxie, age two).
They all have great hair coats, but the biggest shock was the attitude and energy change in our ten year old Setter, Mattie. She has always been a "puppy" at heart but had started to slow down. She didn't want anything to do with our youngest Setter or our Doxie pup. After about two months on Longevity, she's now bouncing around and play bowing, trying to entice her house mates to play. It's wonderful to see her so full of herself again. All my friends are aware of your company due to the excellent outcomes I have shared with them. I'm grateful for your products as they allow me to provide the best care for my four-legged family at a very reasonable price.
Sincerely,
Lori Burian, Pennsylvania

Dear Springtime,
I just got back from a follow-up visit to the vet with my cat, Sampson, and wanted to share my appreciation. For the prior five years, this animal had a miserable time with ear infection after ear infection. We have had multiple surgeries, restricted diets, antibiotics by the dozen and most recently this year he was diagnosed with MRSA.
My dog had surgery this year for her elbows and a friend recommended that I start her on the Longevity formula. One day, after a vet appointment with the cat, I wondered if the stuff wouldn't help Sampson. I called your office, spoke with my vet and started the cat on it. He is a new animal. His ears have NEVER looked this good. It's been about seven months now on the Longevity and the vet has been impressed with how his ears look. You can't know how great it is to hear "his ears look so clear and healthy" as opposed to "he has another infection." I never thought I'd hear this! It's so nice to see him comfortable. Thank you so much!

Thank you so much for making Longevity. My older dog, Mia, an eleven year old Terrier mix, was really showing her age. She was limping from a leg injury the vet was uncertain would ever heal. However, after just a few weeks on Longevity (which she loves) I started seeing the puppy return in my dog. She has lost weight, can exercise more, and there is no limp whatsoever. And, here is the real proof. My dog has always had one ear that stays half down. After a few weeks on Longevity I started noticing that both her ears stood straight up. I first wondered what was going on, that Mia looked different; her ears seemed to be quite large. After a few days of this, I actually could feel that the cartilage on her ears was thicker. It is amazing. My sister and friends were laughing a little as she looks like she may take off with the next wind, but I am just thrilled to have my little dog with me as long as possible.
Thanks again, Springtime – keep up the fantastic work!

Dear Springtime,
Boomer is my Golden Retriever, and his 14th birthday pictures say it all! Longevity has been his "fountain of youth" for the past two years.
At age twelve, his hips were deteriorating due to joint problems. He was on a low dose of a prescription drug and totally collapsed as a side effect from it. I took him off the medication immediately. I was desperate to find him the right supplement that could help his hips.
That's when my dear friend told me about Longevity. I was amazed to start watching the changes in him. He was walking so much better, and not only that, but his coat was turning luxurious again. My new vet is amazed at how healthy he is for his age. All his organs are working great and his heart is strong. Longevity is so complete that it changed his total health, inside and out. I cannot thank you enough, Springtime, for helping my old boy and giving me the peace of mind that I was doing the very best for him. I tell everyone about the wonders of Longevity. Fourteen years ago, he was the Christmas puppy to three adoring children and over the years has been the most wonderful and loyal friend. He deserves the quality of life that he has given back. Longevity has made that possible. Thank you again, Springtime, for loving our animals and making truly good, effective safe products for them.
Thank you!

Dear Springtime,
I have 18 dogs here, with quite a few seniors that have come into our rescue and will stay here. It seems they get younger here, their voices louder, their muscles stronger. This year I stocked up on the Longevity, knowing I would be unable to purchase the variety of products I do normally. As I dole out the Joint Health Chewables to the neediest, and Longevity to everyone, including pups, I see the results of the products are lasting.
Old Miss Dorie, who was highlighted on the website under Joint Health Chewables (the beagle who couldn't get up the stairs) now jumps on her hind legs, runs and plays with the youngsters, and howls louder than I ever heard. Yes, they get younger here! I would never be without these products. Thank you!

Dear Springtime,
My beautiful, soon to be 13 year old Flat Coated Retriever, Casey, had a malignant liver tumor removed in the summer of 2005. The options they suggested were not what we wanted for our beloved pet. We wanted his quality of life to be the best and decided to take other steps to make sure he was getting just that.
Three weeks after his liver surgery he ruptured his cruciate ligament in his left hind leg. The vet suggested another operation; she said without the operation he would become lame. We were devastated. Casey has been running with me every day for the past 12 years and the thought of him not being able to do what he loves the most was heartbreaking. Upon hearing this so soon after his first operation we decided to take another route. I found a holistic vet who put him on a special diet with herbs for the liver cancer and acupuncture once a month for his leg. I researched and found Springtime and decided to start him on Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables. When Longevity came out I decided to try it and now almost two years later his quality of life is what it used to be. We continue to walk everyday and he is healthy and happy. Thanks to your Springtime products, I feel that this has made a tremendous difference in his life and ours.
Sincerely,
Earl & Dianna Dilulio, Maryland

Dear Springtime,
I own two Jack Russell Terriers, ages eight (Missy) and eleven (Taz). The male, Taz, has been diagnosed this past year with high blood sugar and cortisol levels in the blood. The cortisol level was under control within a few months; however, the blood sugar has been a struggle. To add to his ailments, he developed cataracts very rapidly due to the uncontrolled diabetes. He had only 10% vision remaining. Although he remained a happy dog, it was a heartache to see him struggle outside of his environment in our home.
I have been purchasing your garlic pills to control ticks and fleas for the last few years and am very pleased with the results. I had both dogs on a glucosamine product to help them in their senior years, however, it did not appear to be working after using for one year. Both dogs seemed to suffer from joint pain periodically. I decided to try your Longevity product. I began using Longevity on December 16, 2009, marking the side of the container to monitor any progress noticed.
Within three to four weeks Missy stopped limping (due to a broken leg when she was a puppy), and I noticed that Taz was not struggling to find his way around the house as much. As we neared the end of January, I began to notice his eyes were very clear and it appeared the cataracts were less noticeable. While visiting my vet for Taz's monthly glucose check, I mentioned to him that Taz's vision miraculously seemed to be improving. He stated that he had done research on products with high levels of antioxidants actually dissolving cataracts in dogs and cats.
When I began using the Longevity my hope was to ease both their joint pain, improving their quality of life. Never in my wildest dreams would I believe this product in any way could improve vision for a dog with cataracts! Taz is living proof your product is miraculous! And Missy no longer has her periodic limp from the former broken leg. They both have a little more "pep in their step." I have friends and neighbors with older pets that I have spread the news to about your products. I cannot thank you enough for improving both my dogs' quality of life for however long I have them.
Sincerely,
Debra Dodgson, Pennsylvania

Dear Springtime,
My 15 ½ year old Sheltie, Cassie, had cancer, and was spiraling down. I began her on the Longevity I ordered for my three Shelties. They had all been on Fresh Factors plus Joint Health Formula for years. Within a week on the Longevity, Cassie was more energetic and responsive. She had trouble walking, but Longevity made her love the morning ride in her wheelbarrow again. She definitely improved and was much happier once she was on Longevity. I thank you for helping me give her a good quality of life in her later years.
Sincerely,
Harriet Entin, Missouri
Note: Sadly, Cassie passed away November 2, 2007.

Dear Springtime,
He is my angel on earth. His name is Chance. He is 10 and 1/2 years old. There is no breed like the German Shepherd. He is my loyal, loving companion. I noticed that he had started limping upon arising and when on his walks. This concerned me a lot. I talked to my vet about it and he didn't seem to think there was any need for concern. But concerned I was. I read about Longevity in your catalog and decided to give it a try. He's been on it for about one year. Within three months his limping had improved. I haven't noticed it when he is walking in the house. He does limp on occasion while walking, but I attribute that to being tired from the walk. He has definitely improved. ...I told him he has reverted back to his puppyhood! One of the things he loved to do when he was a puppy was to come into the kitchen while I was doing the dishes and grab any clothing that was available (preferably the hind side) with his teeth and proceed to drag me to the den. He wanted me on the sofa and he would climb into his very own recliner! He is now doing this again as a senior adult! Also, he loves to chase the water from the garden hose sprayer. He goes ballistic if I turn it on to water the flowers! He says the flowers have to wait... Well, I could go on and on like the proud mama I am! Keep up the good work!

Dear Springtime,
I just wanted to validate what you and so many of your customers already know. Longevity is an amazing product! We have an 18 year old Schnauzer, Abbey, who was moving slowly and exhibiting some symptoms of dementia and hearing loss. We started giving her the Longevity along with our other dog who was receiving it for the prevention of joint problems. After a few weeks, Abbey was "hopping like a rabbit" and playing with our puppy like she used to several years ago. Longevity has not been able to cure the dementia or the hearing problems but the mobility changes are unbelievable!
Thanks so much!

Dear Springtime,
Our Husky/Lab Mix, Casey, who is almost ten years old, has had a long bout with joint pain in all four legs. She has been through ACL surgery as well. We've been giving her about two scoops of Longevity morning and evening with her meals for about a year and a half now. We began noticing a difference within a month after starting it. She had more energy, she was running instead of trotting, and she was much more playful with our youngest dog. And just a couple of months ago, she surprised us beyond words - she jumped on our bed! That's something she hasn't done in years!
We are sold on Longevity, and we recommend it to all our friends with older dogs with joint pain.

Dear Springtime,
The first order of Longevitywas a big hit and what a difference it has made for Shug! She no longer mopes around, unable and or unwilling to go for walks or play. She is so much better since starting the Longevity – there is a sparkle back in her eyes and a spring in her step! I just had to say "Thanks!"

Dear Springtime,
I just felt I had to write and tell you what great results I have had using your Longevity product and Fresh Factors. I have a Champion smooth Dachshund that for the last two falls into winters has totally blown his coat and gotten a very sparse coat with a dry, brittle feel to it. This fall he was just shown at Dachshund Club of America and his overall appearance and condition has never been better! His coat shines and his musculature is just gorgeous! I just wanted to write and say thank you! I am sure it is due to the use of your products.

Dear Springtime,
As a health-oriented breeder of quality AKC Rough Collies, I am always looking for quality supplements to bring out the best in my kennel dogs. My female Rough Collie was on Longevity for several months before we bred her. And, she continued on Longevity throughout the pregnancy.
Wow, did we get a big surprise when she whelped a litter of 11 puppies! We were only expecting six pups by the ultrasound. So we did not expect this many pups. This was an exceptionally large litter.
All pups came out with normal weights for their sex. I had no runts. And none died. All pups survived and are now thriving little dogs. That in itself is some kind of record for health and robustness of the pups.
Also, our eye check for Collie Eye Anomaly, a genetic defect, came out terrific! None of the 11 puppies had a coloboma (a genetic defect). This is quite some record, as litters usually have one or two coloboma pups. Some breeders have more.
So I must say, as the breeder, some magic happened with this breeding and litter. Healthy pups, great eye checks, all pups are happy and thriving. So, I think some magic happened with Longevity in the diet.
Now Mom has her 'figure' back to her trim and slim self, and has rebounded with robust health and beautiful fur growing back in.
What can I say? It must be the Longevity magic at work!

Dear Springtime,
I am writing to you to express my amazement at the reaction of my dogs to your Longevity. They are all on a high quality dog food, enriched with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. I had refrained from ordering this for many years due to the fact that it was a granule product to be sprinkled on top of the food. My guys are particular, and I assumed they would dislike the topping. I could not be more wrong!!!! I initially ordered this as a bonus item as part of my last Fresh Factors order. They simply could not get enough of this product! I was astounded! I recently placed a full order of the Longevity product and have received it. They are absolutely ballistic over this product! Thank you so much for making a product that apparently added nutrients that they are missing from their diet. I'm sure their overall health will be greatly improved from this supplement.
Sincerely,

Dear Springtime,
I got the spring catalog with my Bernese Mountain Dog puppy Odin's picture in it. And it looks great. I just want you to know that we now refer to Longevity as "Miracle Grow." Odin is now 10 months old and 110 lbs. Here he is with his new friend, Asgaard's Iris, who is eight weeks old, and of course, already enjoying the benefits of Longevity (as well as some green grass!).

Dear Springtime,
I just had to write about the changes we see in our 14 year old Golden Retriever/Cocker Spaniel Mix. Last summer Beau's former owner felt it wouldn't be long before he would have to put Beau to sleep. When the neighbor died last fall, we took Beau into our household as we had promised. I started him on Springtime Longevity and we are amazed at his new lease on life! He not only is happier and more active but also actually runs around playing with my two boisterous Norwegian Elkhounds. They are just one and four years old respectively so they give him quite a workout.
I wouldn't be surprised if Beau celebrates more birthdays with us, seeing how he has bloomed while on Longevity. The two Elkhounds are getting Fresh Factorsand doing well on that. Pretty soon they will be hard pressed to keep up with him! I enclosed a photo of Beau…just look at the sparkle in Beau's eyes!

Dear Springtime,
I think it's about time I shared my Springtime story with your company. I share my home and life with two wonderful Doberman Pinschers, Cisco and Bella. Cisco, at nearly 10 years of age, had begun to show some tell-tale signs of being an older dog; he slowed down a bit, walked a little gingerly, and declined to play with the ever persistent if not obnoxious Bella. Cisco and I had competed quite regularly in obedience trials, and I thought in his twilight years he deserved to "take it easy." I had been ordering Springtime Stress Free Calmplex for Cisco for some time to help combat his severe separation anxiety, when I read about Longevity. I decided I should give it a try. Bella was herself working in obedience and nearing her championship in conformation, she could obviously benefit from it, so why not give the old man some too?
Bella's coat improved dramatically, she was retaining her conditioning better, and she just appeared healthier. But Bella was not what shocked me. Cisco seemed like a new dog. Cisco chased after Bella, he play-bowed, and ran around the yard. He literally had a spring in his step. Now I'm a skeptic, so I was hesitant to attribute to Longevitythat my semi-geriatric Doberman could now bound across the yard, but it was the only thing that had changed in his diet and his life. Clearly, it was the Longevity.
Cisco had always loved to train and compete in obedience. Judges always commented on how happy he looked when we were showing. On a whim, I decided to enter Cisco in a Rally trial. When Cisco realized HE was the one going to the show, he bounced all the way out to the car! After we were done competing, several spectators approached us to compliment Cisco's enthusiasm. You should have seen their mouths hit the ground when I told them he'd be ten in a week! He was the oldest dog competing by several years!
I could not have asked for more. Cisco loved competing again, and I had so much fun taking him through his paces, but the best was yet to come. Out of 17 dogs, Cisco and I were awarded first place!
Thank you Springtime for making Longevity!

Dear Springtime,
My oldest Bearded Collie, Frankie, was 15 in October of 2009. She had a great life, but was not aging with the quality that we felt was right for her. When I saw the material on Longevity, it wasn't a choice, we had to try it.
We wanted the quality of her life even towards the end to be as full as we could make it, and it wasn't going that way. So we carefully evaluated our first month on Longevity.
She can once again get on the couch. Maybe not a big deal for our other four dogs, but huge for her. She wanted to go on walks with the other dogs now. Prior to this the thought of going beyond the mailbox was way out of her ability. She trots again, not far but often into the house, where she used to walk really slowly.
None of these things are unusual, but for this dog, they were giant steps back towards life like we knew her. She has been taking Longevity for more than three months now, and we will continue using it.
Not everything with Longevity has been easy. She doesn't like the taste, wet, dry, or mixed in yogurt or other mediums. But we continue getting it in her, and being blessed by her daily dog smile, her participating in small house rituals, and the knowledge that life is still good for her. That is all we asked for.
So even though we aren't the average Longevity purchaser, I felt that I should share our story.

My oldest Bearded Collie, Frankie, was 15 in October of 2009. She had a great life, but was not aging with the quality that we felt was right for her. When I saw the material on Longevity, it wasn't a choice, we had to try it.
We wanted the quality of her life even towards the end to be as full as we could make it, and it wasn't going that way. So we carefully evaluated our first month on Longevity.

Dear Springtime,
I just returned home from a half-day meeting. Figured my nine year old, 85 lb yellow Lab Zach would be fine not being crated for a couple of hours… As you can figure, I wouldn't be writing if that were the case. I got home and found (among other things) my jar of Spirulina Tablets in bits and pieces. Of course, there were no bits and pieces of the tablets! I guess he figured since I feed him Longevity in his bowl twice a day, why not help himself to these?
I called to check with one of your customer reps, just to be sure that I didn't need to worry about his ingestion of these. And she assured me that I was correct, I didn't need to worry. I'll be holding off on his Longevity supplement for a couple of days, but Zach sure likes Longevity AND Spirulina Tablets!
As an aside – since starting him on Longevity, I've noticed a great improvement in his walking and alertness, as well as his coat being much softer. He's a rescue and has had bad knees since I got him. Since the Longevity, he is walking a ton better!
I've included some pics of the little stinker with his bottle of accomplishment… No guilt with this one! Thanks for your great products, both human and dog. I'll be reordering soon!

Dear Springtime,
My name is Clementine and I am a Siberian Husky/Shepherd mix. I will have a big birthday coming up. I will be 18 years old October 31, 2006.
I thank you and my parents for making and giving me Longevity, Joint Health Chewables, and Fresh Factors. I am feeling so much better now. My hips don't hurt as much and I can now play and keep up with my playmates, Chloe and Sandy, who are also on Springtime products.
Thank you for keeping us healthy, happy and strong.

Dear Springtime,
Since I tell every dog person I know about your product, I thought it might time to tell you! A few years ago, I noticed my then nine year old Havanese, Clover, starting to slow down. He'd been a great performance dog - obedience, agility, rally- and it looked like it was starting to catch up with him. I had him on glucosamine/chondroitin from the pet store and didn't notice a whole lot of difference. A professional handler friend I knew recommended Fresh Factors, as all of her show dogs are on them. I looked at the website and decided that for my small dog, I'd spring for Longevity.
I could have sworn I saw a difference in him within days, but being slightly cynical, I thought it was my imagination. After two weeks on it, I was gone a long day and dropped off Clover with my parents for the day. They had no idea he was on anything new, and went on and on about how he was having "such a good day," wanting to play ball and bounce around. At that point, I knew the Longevity was making a huge difference. A few years later, I moved and switched vets. She gave him a routine physical and commented that his eyes looked cloudy for his age but he was otherwise in great shape. I asked how old she thought he was and she guessed him to be at a little more than HALF his age! Suffice it to say, she then said his eyes looked normal but the rest of him was unbelievable!
I've since added Bug Off Garlic Granules (also amazing) and am switching from the fish oil I had been using to your new Omega 3-6-9 product. I also put all of my show dog clients on Longevity. You can literally see the line of new coat growth and the huge difference it makes.
One of the first hurdles I had with Longevity is that feeding it as you recommend meant my white dog had bright green all over his face after every meal. I got tired of washing his face. I eventually started throwing a spoonful of "loaf style" canned food (not in gravy) in the bowl, then the Longevity and Bug Off Garlic Granules. I mix the powders into the canned food then mix it in the dry food. Problem solved - no more green face!
Attached is a photo of Clover on his 13th birthday. People meet him and are blown away when they ask his age, because he's still running and bouncing around. He had a cruciate ligament repaired in his knee last December (because he was running laps with my aunt's one year old Havanese!) and he boggled the vet with how quickly he recovered, especially give the severity of his injury and his age.
Thank you for such an amazing product!

Dear Springtime,
We began giving Longevity to our 14 year old Chocolate Labrador, Reese, in late November 2008. By mid-December, he began showing an interest in his toys again (something he hadn't done in years.)
He now brings his favorite ball to us for games of fetch every day. He is not as quick as he once was, but it brings us such joy to see him play again! Adding a few rounds of fetch to his daily walk has resulted in his taking some weight off too!
Last night when we returned home from work, we caught Reese napping on our sofa. He had not been able to climb on our furniture for years due to weakness in his hind quarters.
Because this supplement comes in a powdered form, it is easy to administer by simply adding it to his daily food. I also found that by introducing it gradually per the instructions, it was well tolerated.
I have never written to any company about a product, but the significant difference Longevity has made in the quality of our dog's life has inspired me to thank you! We recommend your products to every dog owner we meet.
Sincerely,
Patty Smith, West Virginia

Your product Longevity has eliminated the need for my dog, Chloe, to have surgery for a luxating patella. She is happy and seemingly pain-free. Her knee cap no longer slips out of place. I am so very thankful to you and your company!

Dear Springtime,
I thought you might like to see pictures of our new dog, Almost April. We got her from the shelter on March 27 of this year. She came from one of the worst cases of animal abuse/hoarding that the state of Maine's animal welfare people had ever seen. She was one of the lucky ones, eight dogs were found dead and six more had to be put down. All we did was start adding Longevity to her food, feed her three good meals a day, and give lots of love. You can see what 2 ½ months of good care can do! She looks and feels so much better. Thanks for making a product that produces results.
Sincerely,
Robin Wilkey, Maine

Dear Springtime,
I'd like you to meet a very special dog. Her name is Spud and she is a blue merle Australian Shepherd. I have called her my "little horse" because I went to a horse sale to buy a horse and I came back with her. She has been my constant companion for 13 years and 10 months. She does not follow me around the farm, she leads me.
Two years ago at age 12, she tore her left hind ACL chasing the horses. I had the vet perform surgery on her. Her recovery wasn't easy. She hated being restrained and moved like she hurt. A friend suggested I give her Joint Health Chewables which I did for a couple of months and saw some improvement but she still seemed in pain when walking. Sadly, I was coming to the conclusion that rather than let her suffer any more I would have to put her to sleep.
However, I got on the internet and read about Longevity and decided to give it a try. I ordered some and within a few days I noticed she wasn't hobbling around as much. Her coat was shinier. After two weeks she was moving easier, even going out into the corral and letting the horses know she was boss again. A month later she started running and was back to moving at a trot wherever she went.
It has been two years since I started giving Spud her Longevity. She does her little dance every night reminding me it's her treat time. I think she'd lick it right out of my hand. Friends and family, and even my vet can't believe she is as old as she is. She has always been my friend, buddy, and protector. Thanks to Longevity, Spud is still active and a part of my life.
Thank you!

Dear Springtime,
Thank God for my procrastination. I never got around to buying canned food to mix Longevity with for my Black Lab, Griffey. I mixed it with his dry food adding a small amount of water. He loves it and dances when he sees me open the can. With all that is going on with dog food these days, I don't need any more health issues with him. He is doing great on Longevity, has more energy and isn't limping as much from hip and knee problems…I give it to Tess also, my other Black Lab, mostly because she loves it. I work in a chiropractic office and I tell people all the time about your great products. Thank you so much for helping Griffey get back to himself.

Dear Springtime,
I have been ordering from Springtime for years now and have also taken every opportunity to tell others about your company and great supplements! I recently realized I have never told YOU how pleased I have always been with the products.
I have a small Rescue/Rehab for a variety of animals and many have been the recipients of your formulas. I currently have 17 dogs and one of my favorite additions to their diet is the Longevity. I raise all my giant breed pups (Wolfhounds and Danes) on this, as optimal nutrition is extra important for the fast growing guys. Nearly all my critters, dogs and otherwise, think the Spirulina Wafers are a treat, and really, anything I have ever ordered is top quality and well accepted by all.
I have most recently plugged Springtime on one of my forums and I know you have received numerous orders! I have attached a few pics of a couple of my "Springtime" guys also. I operate on a shoestring budget, but their supps are a priority whenever I can spare the cost. Thanks for being a company I can count on and recommend with pride!

New hope for rescue dog! "...we are finally working on some really problematic behaviors that we had given up hope on."
Dear Springtime,
I have never bought a product based on testimonials, nor have I ever sent a testimonial, but I did both with Stress Free CalmplexI got your catalog and read letters from dog owners who have used it. I had already put my abused rescue dog, Jadis, up for rehoming because we could not get past her anxiety to train her. We had been held hostage to her unsafe and unpleasant behaviors for two years. We had tried anti-depression medication to no avail. I decided to give one last try so I ordered the Stress Free Calmplex. Within a couple of days, she was a different dog. People came to the house and asked what happened to her. She is now able to focus and attend, and we are finally working on some really problematic behaviors that we had given up hope on. Looking at her, I can only imagine that she must feel relieved to not be living with the level of fear and anxiety that she had before. I don't know what is in it, but, man, is it ever working. I am sending in another order. We have told everyone we know about the product.
Thank you!

Dear Springtime,
I have never seen anything work so well on our dogs as Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables. We had an older Sheltie, who was extremely sore and lame. Within one week of giving him these products we started seeing a difference and he just got better and better. He is gone now, but not because of his joint problems. He would limp a bit but was in no pain. He would have had to have been put down almost two years before he was because of his pain if we hadn't been able to find products like these to have helped him…
We have also tried the Stress Free Calmplexand they have worked really well on the nervous Aussie we have. She is sound sensitive and would react so badly to hearing people going by on four wheelers and dirt bikes that she would almost go into a seizure. Stress Free Calmplex has made her have a much better life also.

My rescue Greyhound has been with me now for exactly three years and stands 30" tall and weighs 96 lbs of solid muscle tone and body substance without an ounce of fat on him.
I contribute this to being given Springtime, Inc. supplements from day one - Fresh Factors, Stress Free Calmplex, and Bug Off Garlic Chewables. As of January of 2010, he will turn six years of age and is the picture of health.

Dear Springtime,
I just wanted to say thank you for letting me get a good night's sleep. My old Collie, Egypt, used to get up in the middle of the night during the winter months and pace, bark, and shake. Every night it happened at the same time, and I came to find out it was the snow plows. I started giving her Stress Free Calmplex and within a matter of days, she was sleeping through the night. I now give my puppy Stress Free Calmplex as well and it has been a lifesaver during training times. She is so alert and focused; she doesn't try running away. It's like I have two different dogs now. Thank you so much for your wonderful product!

Dear Springtime,
You are the best! Jesse, my 7 1⁄2 year old Malamute/Lab mix has been on Fresh Factors for a long time. Recently he began favoring his left hind leg. I upped the dosage and within a week he was running full speed with no limp at all! Also, he is a dog that was terrified of fireworks. One little pop in the far-off distance would send him into a panting, pacing, drooling 120 pound frenzy! I could do nothing to solve that problem. This year I decided to try Stress Free Calmplexand started him on them two weeks before the 4th of July. He hardly notices fireworks now, and we live in a lake area where they happen pretty much all summer. Now, when he hears them, I tell him to go lie down and he goes to his favorite rug and falls asleep. This is a miracle! I can scarcely believe the transformation in my handsome boy. Thank you!!!

Dear Springtime,
I just wanted to send a sincere thank you. I finally have my dog back! I began giving him the Joint Health Chewables, Fresh Factors and Stress Free Calmplex about a month ago. He is an eight year old large Lab mix and had become very temperamental, especially with other dogs. Resin is the now the nicest and sweetest he has ever been! Vets were telling me I should put him down because of the escalating aggression, but I am glad I did not give up.
I got affirmation today of his changed behavior; a client came to the farm today that has not seen Resin in over a month. She has known him over a year, and she could not believe how happy, energetic and relaxed he was, and she did not know I was giving him anything. It felt good.
Thank you so much for helping to save my best friend.

Dear Springtime,
We started buying from Springtime when we lived in Lafayette, IN. My two dogs have been using your goodies since 2003. We then left for Canada in 2005 and then on to India in 2007 and our dogs continued to enjoy your good stuff. I have now come back to USA and we still buy from Springtime since they are really good for our dogs. The Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables have been very beneficial for our dogs. They are getting old now and we see that the Joint Health Chewables has helped them tremendously. The Stress Free Calmplex is also something we would recommend for hyper dogs. Our dogs, Buddy and Nikki, say a special thanks to Springtime. As I promised, here are their photos. Buddy is the black one and Nikki the golden one.
Thanks,

We then left for Canada in 2005 and then on to India in 2007 and our dogs continued to enjoy your good stuff. I have now come back to USA and we still buy from Springtime since they are really good for our dogs. The Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables have been very beneficial for our dogs. They are getting old now and we see that the Joint Health Chewables has helped them tremendously. The Stress Free Calmplex is also something we would recommend for hyper dogs. Our dogs, Buddy and Nikki, say a special thanks to Springtime. As I promised, here are their photos. Buddy is the black one and Nikki the golden one.
Thanks,

Dear Springtime,
Thank you so much for your fast shipping service! I really appreciate this. And, your products that I give my dogs are fantastic! Longevity is helping to keep my Chow mix active and in much less pain. Stress Free Calmplex has made my fearful Whippet practically fearless! She no longer trembles and hides during rain and windstorms!
Thanks again,

Dear Springtime,
I just wanted you to know how ecstatic I am about your Stress Free Calmplex chewables for dogs. Meeko is two years old and has been a very nervous dog just as many years. We were having trouble keeping his weight up even on high pro food. He has been on the Stress Free Calmplex for three and a half weeks and has gained quite a bit of weight! He seems to be a lot happier, too! We also use the Fresh Factors and Bug Off Garlic Chewables for our two other dogs, and some of the human products for ourselves. We are very satisfied with all of the products.

Dear Springtime,
I am a volunteer with Shorewood Cocker Rescue. We are a 501C3 dog rescue that has been in business for 25 years now. Our mission is to rescue Cocker Spaniels in bad situations and find them forever homes where they can spend the rest of their lives being loved and taken care of. I personally use Springtime Stress Free Calmplex on some of my older nervous dogs and especially like how it works on puppy mill rescue dogs. It makes a world of difference!
Here is a picture taken about three months ago for the local paper. The little girl Cocker in my lap is Lacy, and she was a foster/mill dog that had the advantage of taking the Stress Free Calmplex for about a month before she was adopted. The boy in the picture is my son, Alex, who is my helper. The little red Cocker perched in the back of the sofa is Daisy, currently in permanent foster with us as she is in kidney failure. The rest of the mangy crew are my boys. The one we give Stress Free Calmplex to and call it his happy pill is not in the picture, but it certainly has benefited him, and they ALL love it like a treat.
Sincerely,

Dear Springtime,
I have two Chocolate Labs, Rocky and Zeus, and I adore them. They are my children. My wild child, Rocky, has epilepsy. Since I have been giving him the Stress Free Calmplex I have noticed that his seizures are not as frequent as before. I do believe that it does help a great deal along with his medication form our vet. Both of my children, Rocky and Zeus, have both benefitted from this product as you can see in the picture. Thank you so much for a product that works.

Dear Springtime,
I've been giving my dog, Scout, your Bug Off Garlic Chewables for the entire four years I have lived in Ohio. I have never seen a flea on her and she doesn't get mosquito bites and the only two ticks on her jumped off fast because she doesn't taste good (and jumped onto me, but I eat garlic too :). But absolutely no one I have told about your product believes that Bug Off Garlic Chewables is the reason.... Go figure! I'll be using it on her forever. Here she is with her two favorite bunnies. Don't worry... the rabbit does not live in that tiny crate. He's just out for some sunshine... he has the run of the house most of the time. Darby and Scout are best friends.

Dear Springtime,
Kolby is an 80 lb, three year old, intact male, Black and Red, Longhaired German Shepherd. He is a K9 model and his picture appears in three nationally available German Shepherd 2011 calendars, on four different months. He is an active K9 Blood donor, donating a pint every eight weeks. The next time he donates, he will earn his Gallon pin! Kolby has no special diet requirements or issues. He receives minimal vaccines, and no chemical flea or tick treatments. He is on monthly heartworm prevention.
I am a dog groomer and Kolby goes to work with me every day. During flea season he is exposed to fleas from clients' dogs, and some do hop a ride on him. And that's why I'll use the Bug Off Garlic Chewables and Bug Off Garlic Granules along with Brewer's yeast and Garlic. In the summer and fall, I increase the Springtime Garlic.
We also have a swamp in the lower yard. Great breeding ground for ticks. I go over him daily, and last year found three. I DON'T use Frontline. I do have him vaccinated with the Lyme's disease vaccine.
His exercise levels vary from just going out for bathroom breaks and a quick spin around the backyard, to six mile hikes on the local canal towpath and hours of swimming.
Kolby receives compliments on both his behavior and his good looks where ever he goes. I attribute his great health, amazing stamina and gorgeous hair coat and pigment to your products (Bug Off Garlic Chewables, Longevity, Omega 3-6-9 and C-Complex).
I also recommend your products to my friends and clients on a regular basis. Thank you for helping me keep Kolby to be as healthy and happy as possible.

Dear Springtime,
I would like you to know that I have been feeding stray dogs since 2006. I became concerned about one of my strays being affected by ticks and flies. I talked to my vet-tech and she told me to check you out. So I started buying Bug Off Garlic granules for dogs. (Everyone in the house knows I'm working with the dog food because you can smell it throughout the house.) Hehehe! I saw the dog a week and a half later, oh my gosh, he looked like he took off his coat and put on another one. His coat was so shiny. What I could see, no ticks and flies were to be found. Thanks to my vet-tech and you! I've been meaning to write you but, sometimes life happens, we all get busy.
I called this dog Purple because he happened to have a purple collar on. I haven't seen him in about two years. Life is hard without a home. I wasn't taking pictures of the dogs at that time but I do of the dogs I feed now.
"Cans for K-9s" (Joyce's Project) has been going on since 2006. We collect and recycle aluminum cans to help feed homeless and abandoned pets, kind of a twofold project. I have a lot of people that give me cans, that truly helps, God bless them.
I can't help but tell others of the benefits of your product. I told my brother-in-law and his wife about the garlic for their horses and livestock. We may have you some more customers. When I go to the adoption shows I hand out samples of your Bug Off Garlic Chewables for dogs with info on how to use it and where they can get it.
Thanks again,

Dear Springtime,
I have a 12 month old Havanese puppy named Mikey who had a growth plate injury at around three months of age. He became quite lame and after several trips to the vet he was x-rayed and it was discovered that due to the growth plate injury, his ulna stopped growing while his radius bone continued to grow thus causing him to have a crooked leg and a severe limp. After two months of being on Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables (the Combo) he no longer limps and is a very active happy dog. It is truly a miracle. Thank you, Springtime.

Dear Springtime,
We started using Fresh Factors when Emmett, our English bulldog mix, had a spiral fracture to his right leg in January 2008. Emmett had already had a total hip replacement and a TPLO on one knee when the accident happened. Texas A&M set Emmett's leg with a steel rod and an external fixture and advised us we were in for at least 14 weeks of grueling attentive cleaning and care to pull our sweet Emmett to mobile status again. After just 10 weeks the doctors at Texas A&M were amazed at Emmet's healing progress and removed the external fixture, FOUR WEEKS EARLY. They had to know what we were feeding Emmett. We explained that the week we brought Emmett home after they had set his leg, we received a catalogue from Springtime and ordered Fresh Factors to give it a try. The results were amazing. Thank you.

Dear Springtime,
I am so grateful for your products and the quality of life it has provided our very loved, four legged members of our family. Kiya, our Akita, has been having a lot of breathing issues (my vet said it is similar to COPD, and we don't smoke). It was breaking our hearts to think of putting her down, but it had gotten to where she had been having accidents, and was unable to make it outside because the cold took her breath away. I began giving her the Fresh Factors ground up in her food with a couple of raw eggs and some of the Bug Off Garlic Chewables. She was also on some prednisone from the vet. In less than two weeks, she was able to get up and willingly go outside on her own! Amazing! She still had some trouble with labored breathing, but she hadn't collapsed and I didn't see her tongue turn blue. I then ordered more Fresh Factors and added the Joint Health Chewables. I also decided to chance a try at the Breather Powder, as the vet said her symptoms were similar to heaves in horses. Kiya is 100 pounds, and I gave her about ¼ teaspoon mixed in with her dinner. Now her breathing seems less labored, and once again, she got up and out. Her eyes look brighter and she is more alert. She was sleeping so much more before.
Spirit has had problems with chronic yeast infections in her ears, and had been a nervous chewer, gnawing on her front legs, which she has stopped since taking her Fresh Factors. She takes them like a treat but Kiya won't, so we crush them into a powder.
I didn't want to make this so lengthy, but I always tell my friends about the summer when Spirit was attacked by bees. She had been on her Bug Off Garlic Chewables since March and the incident happened in late August. My young son was walking his "puppy" and hooked her leash to a log on the wood pile. None of us had noticed bees there before, but when the dog pulled they swarmed her. Fortunately, we had the hose on, as we were watering the horses. I called the vet, who advised us to give her benedryl, and to watch her for seizures or shock. I picked several bees out of her fur, and noticed that while she was covered in bees, there were no welts, and no evidence she had been stung. I later looked on the internet and read of several instances where dogs had died from similar events. All I can say is thank God she was on Bug Off Garlic Chewables!
My husband and I use and love the joint health for people too.
Thank you for the wonderful products and great service!

Dear Springtime,
I love these products. My 12 year old pup, Conor, has been suffering from recurring skin infections for over three years. Since his last round of antibiotics, I put him on Fresh Factors and he has had very minimal recurrences of the problem. And, his coat looks terrific! Glad I came back!

Dear Springtime,
I can't remember who I spoke with when I placed the last order, but I told her I'd send a picture of my dog Chip. He turned 9 in May and we will be celebrating nine years together later this month. I found out about Fresh Factors in the mid '90s when I had a Shepherd mix named Bud. He had torn his ACL and developed some joint issues in the knee a couple of years later. The vet had him taking pain medication, but a co-worker told me about Fresh Factors. Because of your product, I was able to stop giving the pain medication to Bud. He passed away in 2002, and I ended up adopting Chip (possibly an Anatolian Shepherd mix). I decided to start giving Fresh Factors to Chip a couple of years ago just for preventative maintenance purposes. The attached photo was taken in December when we were on vacation in Florida. Even at age 9, Chip has lots of energy and can outrun many dogs half his age.
Thanks for keeping your product reasonably priced!

Dear Springtime,
Last December, I took my little brown dog, Gracie, to my vet at least three times for a treatment for terrible lick granuloma that she had on her rear leg. She was put onto a protocol of antibiotics and several other drugs to help her heal. Unfortunately, none of them worked.
I decided that going natural was the key to our success. I adjusted her diet cutting out corn, wheat, soy and dairy, and I added Fresh Factors and Omega 3-6-9. Today, almost a year later, she is not licking anymore, and her leg has healed (and she has great skin and a beautiful coat)! I'd love to say that it is a miracle, but I am more convinced that you simply provide a good product that does what it says. Thank you – I look forward to shopping with you for many more years.

Dear Springtime,
One of my members (of Majesty Rottweiler Rescue, Inc.), Mr. Jim Wells, has been purchasing your products for a very long time and simply raves about the wonderful affects it has on the dogs. This was proven to me when we took in two senior Rottie boys, Jimmy and Sammy, who were in terrible shape. They were very skinny, their coats were very dull and falling out and they had hot spots in several places. They both looked so old and in such bad shape we really didn't hold out much hope for them. Mr. Wells purchased your Fresh Factors and they were given as prescribed every day, and within no time both their coats became soft, silky and stopped falling out, and the hot spots went away completely. To say I was amazed is truly an understatement. I was thrilled; we started giving Fresh Factors to all of the pups who came in along with our own.

"… no better feeling in this world than to see my dogs walk pain-free, run, swim, or play ball again."
Dear Springtime,
About a year ago, I had written a letter regarding my German Shepherds, JR and Emma. At the time, I started using Fresh Factors. My 11 year old male, JR, was blind with an old injury in his leg from an accident. My 11 year old female, Emma, had cancer, two mammary tumors and a tumor consuming 47% of her abdomen. She had been given two days to two weeks, max, to live. Both were in terrible pain, we were carrying both outside, and they could barely walk. I had made plans for euthanasia for both. Thanks to your wonderful products I was able to cancel those plans. I was so happy with the results that I began giving all eight of my dogs your products! I've ordered Fresh Factors, Joint Health Chewables, Advanced Hip & Joint Chewables, Bug Off Garlic Chewables, Bee Pollen, and Stress Free Calmplex, and I have not been disappointed!
Although a month ago, I lost my beloved JR to bone cancer, I am happy to report that Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables (the Combo) greatly improved his quality of life until the end. Emma is still going strong at 12! I am also thrilled to report that a recent trip to the vet shows that one of her mammary tumors is dead, the other mammary tumor and the tumor in her abdomen have STOPPED growth! I am attaching photos of Emma (black & tan) with her eight year old sister, Ada (black & tan longcoat), It is clear that they are both doing very well! Even the vet is pleased with the improved health of the dogs. I'm pleased that we make far less trips to his office!
I will never be able to put into words how grateful I am to my Mom for suggesting the use of your products, or to Springtime for making these miracle working products. There was no better feeling in this world than to see my dogs walk pain-free, run, swim, or play ball again. I was given the gift of an additional quality year with JR and I've been given the gift of an additional year and counting with Emma.
Rest assured, I will continue to recommend your products to others and give samples from my private stock. I will be a guaranteed customer for life! Thank you so very much!

Dear Springtime,
I have enclosed a picture of my Pugs. We started using Fresh Factors in '96, and our Pug, Tigger, was 9 years old at the time. She had degeneration of the spinal cord. She had lost use of her hind legs and we got her a wheel chair and in the spring of '96 she began losing control of her bowels. I had received your catalog in the mail, so I ordered Fresh Factors. Within two weeks Tigger was back to playing with her sister Banjo. It was amazing to say the least! She had regained control of her bowels and lived seven more happy years. We have had all of our pugs on Fresh Factors and just last year we put Columbo on Joint Health Chewables full time. They love Bee Pollen too – they beg for that! Banjo lived to be 17 years old, we just lost her last summer. I know their longevity is due to your products.

Dear Springtime,
I have had really good luck with your products – that's why I've reordered. I had bought Fresh Factors a long time ago for one of my dogs that had hip problems. It helped her a lot right up till the end and now I have two more that are having trouble. I received a flyer from you (since I had lost the number) and remembered how well it worked, so I ordered for them. I just reordered so I don't run out!
Thank you,

Dear Springtime,
As the breeder of Labrador Retrievers I look for the best in health and nutrition for my dogs. I prefer to raise my Labradors as naturally as possible and avoid topical applications and oral medications for pest control. Bug Off Garlic granules is a wonderful product. Since adding Bug Off Garlic to my Labradors' diet, I do not have problems with fleas, ticks, or mosquitoes. Thank you, Springtime!

Dear Springtime,
I buy Longevity for Nellie, who is about 7 1/2 years old. She was a victim of "hit and run" about five years ago and now is so full of joint pain! She and our other rescue, Foster (died 12/2/2008, at age 13), had run across the street when my hubby forgot to shut the gate. Nellie came when he called them to come back, but Foster just kept doing his thing. Nellie, being mostly Collie, ran back across the street to "herd" Foster back home and while running to get him, was hit by the car of two teenage boys, who decided to keep on going!
She is on a pain killer every day and this will continue the rest of her life. Prior to starting Longevity, she slept most of the day and had a very hard time getting up and laying down. She was also losing interest in eating. I had tried Nellie on your Combo, but she would not eat them and I already had so many other pills I had to force down her throat. I then tried theLongevity. Within two days, Nellie showed improvement! It's a miracle! I give her a heaping scoopful in both her daily meals. (It looks weird and smells kind of yukky, but I don't have to eat it and she will, so that's all that matters!) Nellie will now play some with Joey, our other rescue dog. Being that he is probably only three, he is still puppy enough to beg her to play all the time. Before she would not budge, but now will get up and play, several times a day! She will also try to run to keep up with him, which of course is her "dream!" She also has more interest in eating, which is a feat in itself, because she has never been a good eater.
Thanks again for your products!

Dear Springtime,
Roscoe and Riana are my best friends and companions. Roscoe was rescued from the M.S.P.C.A. in Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts when he was six months old. One year after, he needed cruciate surgery. After the long road to his recovery, I started mixing Longevity in his food. Not long after, I noticed how much improved and how much quicker and stronger his leg was. I believe this would not have been possible had I not known about Longevity (which my friend, Chris O'Leary, told me about).
One year later, Roscoe's other cruciate needed surgery. Again, Longevity to the rescue! After the physical therapy, Roscoe and Riana are running and playing (very rough, I might add) and enjoying life again!
Thanks again for helping me to help Roscoe and Riana be the strong, healthy members of my family that they are today.
Sincerely,
Jim Collie, Massachusetts

Dear Springtime,
I have been using Longevity, Omega 3-6-9, and Bug Off Garlic Granules for dogs since last July. I have an overweight, but, oh, so loveable Lab named LilaBelle (yes, we live in the south). She eats the same amount as my male did (sadly, he passed away), but she's about 40 pounds too heavy. My male, Hershey, had perfect weight. Lila got down in her hips, she was limping and sometimes could not get up without help. I found your Longevity, and within two weeks, she had no noticeable problems! I am so thankful for you and your products!

Dear Springtime,
You can just imagine how thrilled I was to see my Boomer's picture in the catalog and on the website. Oh my, I posted it on my Facebook! I lost my boy two days after this Christmas. He was a remarkable 15 ½. He was just fine and during the night had a stroke from old age. You can't imagine how many of our friends said that now, every time they add their Longevity, they will think of Boomer. I was so broken hearted for so long, then after three months I put in an application with our local Golden Retriever Rescue and they called and asked if I would take two that couldn't be separated, and I said of course. So now I have Polly (7) and Annie (6) and put them on Longevity first thing. I just placed an order for my next shipment. I knew this would be difficult to write as I still go to pieces over him, but the girls have brought me new joy. I just want to take the opportunity to say thank you to you all. Now my Boomie is a legend in print.
Here is a picture of me and Polly and Annie. We were at a birthday party. As you can see, I had to have their coats taken down as they had years of mats and dirt embedded. Their new Longevity coats will be magnificent.
Warm regards,
Patty Cook, Nevada

Dear Springtime,
Awhile back when ordering I promised you a photo of Elisa, my beloved Maremma. A retired livestock guard dog who still keeps an eye on her small alpaca herd, Elisa will be 19 years old (that is not a typo) in November. Previously a dog who would refuse supplements (including any treat they were hidden in), Elisa has been a big fan of Springtime Inc. since we discovered you years ago. She enthusiastically eats Fresh Factors, and Bug Off Garlic Chewables, and she LOVES Longevity--eating it daily out of a separate dish she'll even carry around the house. While she may look sleepy in this recent photograph, and of course she naps often these days, Elisa can be surprisingly vigorous and even run through the woods when inspired. I didn't get Elisa until she was 6 years old and soon found myself wishing I'd have more time with her - and I hoped she was making the same wish about me. Now I know we're both very grateful to Springtime Inc. for helping make our wish come true.
Thank you so much,
Kathy Hill, New York

"Buddy's energy has come back, and he walks taller and straighter than he has in at least a year."
Dear Springtime,
I ordered Longevity for my two dogs, both certified as animal assisted therapy dogs - I can't say enough about this product. Skye is a seven year old German Shepherd and Buddy is an eleven year old Golden Retriever who is a tripod (Buddy's back leg had to be amputated when he was less than a week old, as a child fell on it and his leg bones shattered). It is important for Buddy to keep his remaining back hip and his spine in good shape. Buddy's energy has come back and he walks taller and straighter than he has in at least a year. He and Skye are playing like pups. I have also now added your Omega 3-6-9 to my dogs' diets. Between Longevity and Omega 3-6-9, they are having their best year ever!

Dear Springtime,
We have three Great Danes that we adopted from rescue organizations, 1 Rottie/Shepherd mix from the Humane Society (11 years ago) and a Dobe/Hound mix that was found on the side of the expressway when she was about six weeks old (8 years ago).
I started using Longevity probably about eight months ago. My 11 year old Rottie/Shepherd mix had not been able to sit for years due to it being so uncomfortable for his hips. Now, he sits with ease and does it quite a bit when he isn't nosing around the property or enjoying a game of chase with his brothers and sisters.
We adopted a three month old Great Dane pup from a rescue organization that rescued her from a horrific puppy mill situation. She had an abundance of scabs when we got her due to her previous living conditions and her coat was a mess. When she was about eight months old, she developed a case of juvenile demodicosis. It is a form of mange that pups will sometimes get because their immune system isn't fully developed and cannot fight them. The mites were destroying quarter size spots of her beautiful black coat that I worked so hard to improve when we adopted her. The vet told me that her immune system would eventually, hopefully, correct the problem. However, there was a chance that it could worsen. I started her on Longevity and was amazed at the results. Within four weeks, there was a huge improvement in her coat. You can't even see where the spots were. I strongly believe that the Longevity helped her immune system to balance.
I am a dog lover and have always been, especially of giant breeds. Your products have made my dogs happy and healthy and that is all I wish for. I just wanted to thank you for that.

Dear Springtime,
My dog, Dottie, is 15 years old and I believe she owes her longevity to all of your products, especially Fresh Factors, Joint Health Chewables (she can still jump on the couch) and to the Longevity. My cat, Amber, aka "Jam," also takes Longevity as well as Joint Health Chewables. She is 13 years old. Jam likes the taste of your products. Your products have given them a quality of life and health that they would otherwise not have had!
Thank you,

Dear Springtime,
I just wanted to write to you about how wonderful your products are. I have a 4 1/2 year old long coat German Shepherd, Falco, who was diagnosed with hip problems at around 2 1/2. … It devastated me to hear this news! Falco is my love, my best friend, my child. The vet recommended powerful joint supplements of which I started him on and it improved him greatly. He was fine for some time but then started sliding down hill so I switched supplements and tried many things. … Nothing seemed to make a great difference, and by the way, I feed a raw food diet. NO dry dog food in my house. Last winter Falco had a hard time getting in the back of my Tahoe, so I bought a ramp that he hated. He would get grumpy with our puppy, Nika, who was about 6 months old or so and wanted him to play rough. He knew he could not keep up with her. … I purchased the Longevity and Bug Off Garlic as we have horrible ticks. Within a few weeks Falco was much more active and running better in the yard. After a month, I really started to notice the difference as I doubled his dose. Now, several months later you would not know he has hip issues. We live on the lake and he runs on the beach and leaps up on the dock and over to the other side. He chases Nika in the yard and bullies her around while smiling, yes, smiling! It is truly amazing. Dogs with hip problems have no muscle in their hind legs, well, I tell you he does now!
Nika would not eat the Longevity so I started her on Fresh Factors. She had a problem with her coat. She had very coarse, brittle top coat on neck and back, and sores appeared all along her back and head. I had used a new bug repellent so probably the sores were from that, but the coat was terrible, even with the raw diet. She pretty much blew her whole coat, but now after two months on Fresh Factors her coat is soft and supple and shiny. I also have been giving the dogs salmon oil all along and switched recently to your Omega 3-6-9 softgels for them and myself! I think the three different oils in your product are superior to just one type, and it does not go rancid as oil can.
I am so very happy that you saved my boy, Falco, from having surgery. We were seriously considering it and I dreaded the ordeal and expense. So, when your catalog appeared I said "one more try" after reading the testimonials of other clients. Soooo glad I did! We love you, Springtime.

Dear Springtime,
I have been using your products for several years now. I have used the Joint Health Formula and Bug Off Garlic for horses, Longevity and Bug Off Garlic Granules for dogs, and the Spirulina Tablets for myself. I have ridden and trained horses for over 15 years, and I recommend your products to all my clients. I also work with rescue dogs. I took in a 5 year old Bulldog mix that had behavioral issues and severe joint pain in his right hind leg. He also has food allergies. I knew Longevity was the answer, and now he runs around like a puppy and has no problems jumping or climbing stairs. I credit your amazing products for his successful outcome.

Dear Springtime,
I just wanted to tell you how wonderful your product Stress Free Calmplex is. After having loads of friends tell me I should try it with my dog (we call her EV for short, or also Evilicious or Evil EV), I decided to try it when a friend gave me a jar. Boy, what a difference it makes! It has really helped her focus. I was so impressed I decided to buy some of the Tonic Blend and try that on myself for my jangled nerves in the show ring. I am now showing my dogs stress free.
Thanks, Springtime, for your wonderful products,
