Discomfort Success Stories
Dear Springtime,
...I wanted to let you know that this past Saturday morning, I sent an email to a weekly veterinary talk show (Animal General with Dr. Mike) that airs on KDKA AM radio out of Pittsburgh, PA...after I heard one person call in to talk about his young dog having to either have his hips replaced or be euthanized... I wrote to tell the host, Dr. Mike Hutchison about how your products, Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables had saved our AKC Lab pup, Tucker, from having to have both of his hips replaced at the tender age of one.
I explained to Dr. Hutchison that Tucker had been diagnosed with the worst case of hip problems that our vet and a canine orthopedic specialist had ever seen, especially in a young pup. Tucker was in such bad shape that he had stopped growing at six months of age. He could barely walk, and his back had arched up very high from the tremendous pain. ... Tucker had to be kept on narcotic pain medication, so he was always in a drug-induced stupor and even then he could not walk or sit anywhere near normally. That was in March 2003, and we started him on your products in July of 2003 after receiving on of your brochures. I wrote how quickly Tucker responded to your supplements (no surgery, just supplements) and how now, at three years old, he weighs 85 lbs and can run almost as fast as his brother...
... After I saw how well Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables helped Tucker, I immediately started giving them to his brother, Cody, who also has hip problems, but not to the degree as Tucker. ...I plan on keeping both dogs on Joint Health Chewables and Fresh Factors for the rest of their lives.
Thank you for giving us two healthy, pain-free dogs,
Sincerely,
Patricia Mainhart, Pennsylvania

Dear Springtime,
Thought you might be interested in my dog, Dolly, who was started on your Joint Health Chewables and Fresh Factors about 18 months ago. At that time she was in terrible pain, could barely walk and would shake because she hurt so bad. For about a year she had times of jumping around like a puppy, now she just walks around and sleeps a lot. She is deaf and nearly blind, but manages to take her long walk around the back yard each morning, which I think is quite good for an old lady who celebrated her EIGHTEENTH birthday last August 2005. I don't think she would have had a fairly comfortable life these past 18 months without the help of your fine products.

Dear Springtime,
Fresh Factors have been a part of all our dogs' diets for many years. They beg for them, and the results are healthy, happy pets. Recently, our beloved Lab mix, Josie, showed signs of joint pain and we knew that she had been abandoned and malnourished eight years ago. She now is on Fresh Factors plus Joint Health Chewables and now she's chasing the tennis ball and is keeping up with our two German Shepherds, Fritz and Meeka. Thank you for such great products.

Dear Springtime,
Once again, we're writing to tell you yet another success story from On The Rebound Bulldog Rescue.
This is George with his new mommy, Betty. George tore his ACL, underwent surgery, and has been on Joint Health Chewablessince. He had to slow down for a while, but he's back running around his yard. He continues to amuse Betty every day.
Thank you!

Dear Springtime,
We are so pleased with how these two products have helped our Irish Setter. He had hip problems when he was younger and in the past six months or so it has really caught up with him again. He is now 11 years old. When we started him on your Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables, he was having difficulty keeping his rear legs under him on our hardwood floors and he was falling down the stairs at least once a day. I started him out with the higher recommended dose and after a couple of weeks cut him back to one of each tablet twice a day mixed into his dry feed and while no one would mistake him for a puppy, he has a lot of his old zip back. He can make it up and down the stairs without falling and only occasionally has difficulty standing up on slippery wood floors. The vet has suggested NSAIDS for him but said if we could find something that was natural to go ahead and use it. I am so glad that we did.

Dear Springtime,
I can only say your product has made me a believer. Joint Health Chewables has helped my 13 year old Lab, Casey, to still enjoy his later years. Thanks for providing a good product at a reasonable price.

Dear Springtime,
I just wanted to tell you how great I think your products are. My little dog, Dakota, had back surgery when she was two years old. She is now six years old and I could tell her back and legs were hurting her. I started her on the Joint Health Chewables two weeks ago and she is like a new dog. No more limping, and she can go up and down the stairs just fine. She is like a new dog. You brought life and energy back into my pet.
God bless,

Dear Springtime,
I have been using Fresh Factors, and more recently Joint Health Chewables for my dogs. One of them is a Dachshund named Pixi who will be turning 17 this year. Even though he's had back surgery, I believe these two products from Springtime have something to do with the fact that he is very healthy and mobile despite his age. It really is like a magic potion.

Our Tibetan Mastiff, Jack, came to us at six months of age, given to us by a neighbor who had found him running loose in our rural neighborhood. He had been tied up in 90-degree weather for at least two weeks before we got him, and was weak from confinement and lack of exercise. He couldn't climb stairs without falling, had no coordination, and little energy. Because Tibetans are a giant breed, we knew that we had to find a miracle not only to reverse the damage already done, but also to ensure that growth and joint health could be maintained as he matured. A Newfoundland breeder recommended (praised) your products. We immediately ordered and began giving him Joint Health Chewables and Fresh Factors. Within four months, Jack went from 63 lbs to 110 lbs and is still growing. His muscles rapidly strengthened, he quickly regained mobility and is now the dog he was meant to be. You were indeed our miracle. Jack has thanked us for your products by becoming one of the sweetest, most protective dogs we've ever owned.
Thank you,

Dear Springtime,
Thank you for the terrific product Joint Health Chewables! Shilo, my Rottweiler, is only a little over a year old [and has hip problems], but before we tried this product, I thought we may have to have her put down because she was in so much pain. Everyone who has seen her lately is asking what I did for her! I took your product to my vet and he said yes, it should help her. It just made a miraculous difference in her! She is a completely different dog!

Dear Springtime,
Our seven year old Yellow Lab, Harley, was starting to show signs of stiffness and would stagger upon rising from laying down. He also had developed some joint swelling and a bony growth on the inside of his right ankle joint. He is otherwise a very energetic dog who loves to accompany our trail rides. Harley is also a performer and does an assortment of tricks. We put him on Fresh Factorsand later added Joint Health Chewables to his daily regimen.
As you can see from this newspaper photo that appeared on the front page of our local paper, Harley took first place in Best Trick as he jumped through a series of declining hoop sizes at a local dog show. Thanks to Fresh Factorsand Joint Health Chewables, we expect to be auditioning Harley soon for a spot on Pet Star.

Joe and Linda Sperie, Ohio

Dear Springtime,
Tex is a 14 year old Blue Heeler with bad hips. Without your product, Joint Health Chewables, it would take him two or three trips to get up from a laying position. Now he gets up usually on the first try, and trots around without falling. Thanks for your product and adding quality to Tex's life.
Grateful in my heart,

Dear Springtime,
My male Bichon, Baxter, had had seizures and a possible stroke at age ten. We'd adopted him at age five to keep our female Bichon, Missy, company. Baxter had been abused and neglected by his previous owner.
After Baxter's seizures left him unable to walk and other residuals, the vet said time to say goodbye. That's when I said Hello to Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables. At 12 now, Baxter's back to normal! You'd never know we nearly had to put him down. Baxter and Missy are like a couple of puppies, full of energy with your products!

Dear Springtime,
I just felt I had to write and tell you the difference your Joint Health Chewables has made in my dog's quality of life.
Approximately four months ago, Abby, our six year old American Cocker Spaniel, had to undergo surgery for a torn anterior cruciate ligament on one leg and then on the other leg two weeks later! She healed nicely but I could tell she was stiff because of the way she moved and had trouble getting up. She was just not the same hippity-hoppity girl as she was prior to surgery. I had read that glucosamine and chondroitin might help, and, after a web search directing me to your website, obtained your Joint Health Chewables. I had my reservation, to say the least. But, after six weeks of treatment, she has responded so favorably that I, my wife and the vet are absolutely astonished!
Kudos to you and your team! You have given us our old Abby back. She just keeps getting better and better!
Many, many thanks!
Gary Toth, Kentucky

Dear Springtime,
At six months, my Field Spaniel, Emma, could hardly walk because of hip problems. The products prescribed by her vet made her ill and did not help her hips at all. I contacted a friend who told me about Springtime. After two weeks on Fresh Factors, Emma was like a new dog. At 1-1/2 years, her condition deteriorated again and I added Joint Health Chewables. Her orthopedic vet says she is doing so well at 2-1/2 years, he is not doing the surgery he felt was inevitable. I have now added Bug Off Garlic Chewables also. My Welsh Springer, Maggie, also loves Fresh Factors to help with her allergies.
I have recommended your products to many people. I love your company – both the service and products.
Thank you, thank you, thank you,

Dear Springtime,
I absolutely love your products. My first experience with Springtime was years ago with a Pug who had a luxating patella problem. Although we had to do a surgery, we kept her on Fresh Factorsand Joint Health Chewables during her recuperation. When the vet took the bandages off, he was stunned. He said he had never seen a surgical site heal so quickly before. We had a horse that was severely debilitated by joint problems whose condition was much improved by the Joint Health Chewables. We also had a 15 year old Chow Chow who lost his fur. We put him on Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables and it grew back! We just love your products.

Dear Springtime,
Your product is awesome. My dog, Braxton, was diagnosed with hip problems about two years ago. He is a Cairn Terrier born in 1994 and has always been a runner. We used to jog daily. But about two years ago, he slowed way down. We play ball a couple times a day, too. Anyway, I noticed him slowing down and I started carrying him upstairs with me. He also could no longer jump up on the bed and would just carry his ball around and cry. I heard about your Joint Health Chewables for him and ordered immediately. He is 360 degrees different. He jumps, runs and plays ball until he is exhausted. I am so happy and appreciative of your product. He is my boy that I love to watch play. I am telling everyone about your product. Amazing results...thanks so much!

Dear Springtime,
I am just as delighted with your products over the last couple of months as I was several years ago when one of my older working dogs started to get stiff in one back leg. I now have four of my six Border Collies on Fresh Factors as well as the Joint Health Chewables... I raise registered sheep and my Border Collies are an important part of the farm. Thanks for your good products that keep them going strong even as they get older. They, like people, hate to give up what they love to do... I have been wheelchair bound for the last 25 years due to a fall with a horse. These dogs allow me to continue raising my sheep. This also keeps me active and healthy. Bless your products. They still remain to be the best.

Dear Springtime,
My Aussie mix, was tripedal two winters in a row. Joint Health Chewables put him back on all fours for the next six years of his life with not so much as a limp! We have new puppy now named Jonah. Springtime's products have truly enhanced the enjoyment of pet companionship because it has proven to improve the health and happiness of each pet I have owned.
Cheers,

Dear Springtime,
In late October of 2005, my over 10 year old male Doberman had a fall down the deck steps while chasing a stray cat. He seriously injured his rear but no fractures. Due to his age, I didn't want to give him meds, but tried other joint catalog products with very little results. By the end of March, he was to the point that at times his rear legs gave out and he couldn't get up on his own. I was forced to face the extremely difficult choice of euthanasia. I then heard about your Joint Health Formula in powder form, and after reading the testimonials from horse people, I decided to give it one last try.
After being on it for five weeks with totally miraculous results, I just recently placed a second order. By the first week in May of 2006 and my guy now reaching the age of 11 years and three months, he is once again galloping around the yard and getting into mischief. I thank you so very much, Springtime, for this wonderful product, and giving me extra time with my beloved companion. I've tried others, but found no other to match the results obtained by this product. I have since recommended this to Doberman people friends, and one of them already is getting the exact same results with her own now advanced aged Doberman afflicted with joint problems.
