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!

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,

My 13 year old Basset Hound, Chuckie, has improved greatly on Longevity. Your staff is so nice and helpful. I only hope my Chuckie will live a lot longer! Thanks so much for making such a great product!

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,

"Buddy's energy has come back, and he walks taller and straighter than he has in at least a year."
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!

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.

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,

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.

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.

We have been providing our three Greyhounds (Lucy, Ricky and Madonna) with Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables (the Combo) for about four years now. It is remarkable to us just how healthy they are. Ricky, at age 11 1/2, would whimper each time he would rise from his bed. Since taking your products, we have not heard a sound. Lucy, at age 10 1/2, to this day runs around our house daily and effortlessly without issue. But lastly, our Madonna at age 14 and 9 months, even though she is deaf, blind in one eye and her rear legs have weakened due to age, still jumps on and off our deck six times a day. We take very good care of our Greyhounds, but truly believe that the Combo has contributed in a positive way to their longevity.
Any chance we get, we tell our dog families of your wonderful products!

I have used your Fresh Factors products for about a year now, and highly endorse them for my champion Bichon Frise dogs. One of the dogs, up until recently, has had repeated hot spots. She not only enjoys the tablets as "treats," she also has had clear skin for a number of months now, since using Fresh Factors. This has been outstanding - and what I consider a success for us. Thank you so much.

Here is a picture of Boomer taken September 2012 running on the beach! He turned 11 years old July 21, 2012. He still enjoys the beach very much and always comes running back out of the water! He gets six Fresh Factors a day, and has been on them for several years now, and as I have said before, he will always be on them!
He went for his six month checkup the first week of October. His vet gave him a clean bill of health and raved at what good condition he is in. He even went so fat to say that if I told him I had just adopted Boomer and told him that he was 11 years old, that he would not believe me! He said that he would not put Boomer past six years old if he was examining him for the first time. He calls Boomer the energizer bunny.
Boomer is still a happy, bouncy guy – my little Tigger because when I get home and he gets one of his favorite treats, he still bounces up and down on his front legs! I wanted to send this to you, because I know you guys care about animals as much as I do.
Thank you all,

I have given Fresh Factors to my dogs and have seen good results. I have a cat named Rudy that had skin sores that would seem to clear up for a while and then return (no fleas). Rudy enjoys eating the Fresh Factors and I have seen a big difference in only a few days of giving him between ½ and a full tablet a daily. Therefore, I am ordering more to be sure I don't run out.
Thank you,

A few years ago, one of my own dogs was having some joint issues. He was routinely on vet prescribed medication. This was something I did not want him on long term. I discovered Fresh Factors at that time. After a short while on that he felt better; he had no stiffness, no limp and was completely off medication to this day. Since then, I have put all of my four dogs on Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables. I have three 13 year olds that the vet tells me are in excellent shape.
Because I am president and run the Southern Nevada Beagle Rescue Foundation, I put all my rescue dogs on Fresh Factors, Joint Health Chewables and even some even on Advanced Hip & Joint Chewables (dogs above the age of five and/or have problems). We have had to do multiple surgeries for hip dysplasia and valgus deformity as well as ACL injury/tears. All of our rescue dogs do better with Fresh Factors,Joint Health Chewables and Advanced Hip & Joint Chewables.
I highly recommend this product for any dog having issues or even dogs advancing in age as a preventative. I know it works, because I have seen the results. I trust the product and I know I am giving my own dogs and my rescue dogs something safe for them that will help them.
Thank you, Springtime,

I have been feeding Fresh Factors to my Rottweiler, Rudy Carl, for seven years. And, in addition, Joint Health Chewables Joint Health Chewables for the last five. He is over 10 years old and you would NEVER know it. He looks and acts like a young dog. I attribute this primarily to Fresh Factors, but also toJoint Health Chewables . Other than some gray hairs on his chin, you would never know his age. His coat is beautiful, his eyes are clear; he has lots of energy and still bounces up and down like he has since he was a puppy.
I have had great experiences giving samples ofFresh Factors to friends. One had an older Rottweiler. After a month or so on Fresh Factors, the UPS driver came to the house. Not knowing, of course, about the new supplement, the UPS guy commented on how great the dog looked and asked the owners, "What happened to Thor? He looks great and has so much energy!"
I swear by your products for dogs.

I am writing as testimony to the Fresh Factors. I have a 9 year old dog, Beau, who has bad hips. He limps and is very stiff. The vet put him on pain medication. However, I could not get him to take the pills. I tried hiding them in the food, in cheese, hot dogs, etc. He would eat the food and spit the pill out. I tried to pill him and he would "gack" the pill back up. Every day was a fight or a wasted pill.
I bought the Fresh Factors and after a week or so, I swear he wasn't limping any longer. He is much more limber and he LOVES the taste of the Fresh Factors.
Thanks for a great product!

We are enclosing a picture of our Bruno after a day of playing at a nearby lake and beach. He's a six month old West German Shepherd. He's such a joy in our lives! We give him Fresh Factors every day. His coat is just beautiful! Thank you for having such a great product.

I started our Golden Retriever, Ms. Muffin, on the Fresh Factors and Bug Off Garlic Chewables last fall. She had suffered from severe skin allergies and her bowel movements smelled awful! Remarkable is all we can say… This has been the best summer she's had in three long years, and our weather here has been really hot. I would recommend these products to anyone!

Our shelter-adopted Shepherd Mix, Jesse, has been getting your Fresh Factors almost since we got him over a year ago...and we frequently get comments how good his coat looks.
You can tell he's happy to be up in the mountains!
