I just wanted to add my compliments for such wonderful products you provide for us. It is nice to know they are a natural way of helping to keep our four legged friends healthy. I used Fresh Factors, Joint Health Chewables and Bug Off Garlic Chewablesfor my Rottie for years. She had multiple bone issues and no amount of surgeries would have helped her. I do not believe long term prescribed meds are the answer and so I turned to Springtime. The vet had given her six years, but she lived a comfortable life for ten years. She passed over the Rainbow Bridge October 11, 2006.
On November 18, 2006 I adopted a B/W three and a half year old Cocker Spaniel named Morgan. He was having mobility issues. He immediately went on your products and today at six he runs like a puppy.
On November 16, 2008 I adopted a six year old Cocker Spaniel named Buffy. She is also on your products as I know of the great results I have had.
Thank you again for giving us a healthy way to keep our pets happy and running free of pain.

My wife and I have a 13+ year old English Sheep Dog and have been using Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables for some time now. We ran out of product for our Shelby and she became unable to use her rear legs and one front leg to walk. We decided to order the products again and see if that would help her before we made the final decision to put her down.
We can't believe what we see, she is walking again with little or no pain and we get to spend more time with her. We know that her time is limited due to her age but we will enjoy the extra time Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables has given us with her.

Excellent products! My dog, Kwanzaa, is a Chow-Chow. He snapped ligaments in both his hind legs when he was a puppy and now at 12 years old, they have set horribly. He could hardly stand, let along walk. I bought your Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables during the latter part of last year and it's like he's been resurrected! I thank God for your formula, and encourage you to keep up the good work!

My Golden Retriever, Sam (10 years old), has been on Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables the majority of his life. He's in great shape and because of Joint Health Chewables, he's showing no signs of problem joints yet! He's weighed 105 lbs most of his life, but now he's 97 lbs per vet's orders.
We've added a new little friend, Chester, a 10 month old Pomeranian pup. He's been on Fresh Factors since 9 weeks.
We love your products, they have made my dogs' healthy and happy. Thank you.
Sincerely,

I just want to tell you that my dog Charlie has horrific allergies and I hated giving him prescription medicine which is really all that would control his itching and keep him from digging at his body. Then by accident, I discovered your company and Fresh Factors online. I was desperate, and nothing ventured, nothing gained, so I ordered the product. I have to tell you I was skeptical that Fresh Factors could help Charlie, and I really didn't notice a big change as the months slipped by. However, almost overnight, Charlie was almost free of any signs of lesions on his skin! I am so glad I stuck with the product because Fresh Factors saved my dog from a miserable life! I started with four tablets, and then I gradually increased the dosage to nine. Once Charlie started to respond, I gradually decreased the chews back down to four per day and he is doing great! Thank you so much, and please let other people know that it may take a few months for Fresh Factors to work, but eventually it will and their dog will be grateful.
Many thanks,

I have been using your Fresh Factors for many years with amazing success, and I'm finally going to share my stories with you. About ten years ago, one of our dogs was getting older and was suffering joint pain. The prescription given to us by our vet helped him only a little. After a month of frustration, I began looking for something else, and found Fresh Factors. After only two days, Homer was running up the driveway and chasing the other dogs in the yard just as he did as a youngster. We were stunned. He never again seemed to suffer any pain.
Since then I've used Fresh Factors for all of our dogs as they've aged, and found out something else that again surprised us. Each and every dog, there have been three, has not only aged without joint pain, but has outlived its normal life expectancy as well. One dog, a 65-70 lb female name Summer, shocked the vet four years ago when I took her to him to be put down, her heart had given out. He asked me how old she was, and his mouth dropped when I told him she was 13. He looked in his records and confirmed it. Normally, dogs that are Summers' size live to be eight or nine years old. We now have another older dog, nearly Summers' size, and he is 12. Without his tablets every day, he would be very lame. Instead he, just like Homer did, runs and plays outside with minimal signs of pain.
I tell anyone who will listen about my dogs and my friends' dogs. Anyone who wants their friend to live a long, pain free life should join us in our happy solution to the problems of their old age.
Thank you for Fresh Factors!

We have a great dog, Sarah, that is getting older and was starting to show signs of such. She was having trouble jumping up into vehicles (she loves to go and ride in the truck) and was limping at the end of the day. I did some research on the internet and found your website and decided to give it a try. She has been on Joint Health Chewables and Fresh Factors now for the entire summer and there has been a drastic and noticeable improvement in her condition. Not only has she improved, but with continued use, she seems to keep improving. It's like a miracle. Our friends and family have noticed such a difference that they have been using your products on themselves and their pets alike.
Thank you for providing such great supplements at such an affordable price. We will be lifetime users.

I have a male Chesapeake Bay Retriever, Lance with diabetes. For about one year his doctor has been trying to regulate his insulin injections to bring his blood sugar count down from around 350 to less than 200. March 10, 2009 his sugar count was 363. I called your company and the lady answering suggested I try Fresh Factors and Spirulina Wafers for him. We started him on your products around March 16, 2009.
He had a blood sugar test May 20, 2009 and his count was 168. The doctors and I were very pleased with that number. He also seems to have more energy.
This photo was taken about three years ago. He is nine years old now and we still walk twice per day for a total of a mile. Lance was retrieving dummies four weeks ago at our camp in Vermont on Lake Willoughby.
Thank you for all you do to alleviate pain and suffering by the products you sell and we feed to our animal companions.

For the past two years, I have wanted to write a letter sending my praise and thanks for your product. I have two black Labs, Mick 11, and Bailey 6, that are my mine and my husband's pride and joy! Two years ago, my baby, Bailey, was in bad shape. He would just lie in our office at work all day long and cry from being in pain. He couldn't get up on his own, and I was carrying him outside just so he could go to the bathroom. I literally thought that my heart was breaking in pieces watching him this way.
Obviously, we made several trips to the vets and came to the conclusion that Bailey was born with a severe case of hip problems. As you might suspect, our vet recommended us to an orthopedic veterinarian that told us Bailey's best option was to get both hips replaced. Leaving the cost factor aside, I immediately scheduled Bailey for surgery because the vet said it was his BEST option; however, even though surgery was supposed to be his best choice, there were a lot of variables involved that left me very wary about the results we would have...
Still having the surgery scheduled, I began researching his condition and the options that I had over the internet, and I realized that supplements were an option that I need to ask the vet about. So I did, and she sent me home with a $40 bottle (60 tablets) of a glucosamine/chondroitin supplement and very little hope of success. I started him on them and they did seem to make a difference; however, he still needed his pain medication many days to complement it. All of which left him simply more comfortable—not returned to our happy, loving Beetle Bailey!
One morning about two weeks prior to Bailey's scheduled surgery date, my aunt showed up at work with a catalog from Springtime, Inc. We started reading the testimonials and researching the products and came to the conclusion that your products were certainly worth a try! I ordered Fresh Factors and Joint Health Chewables, received them the next day, and the rest is history! The change in Bailey has been absolutely unbelievable! He was on your products for only a couple of days, and he was romping around like a playful puppy again! Two years later, we are still doing great! I thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving my baby a chance to be happy and hurt-free again!
Micky, my older boy, is feeling younger and friskier in his golden years thanks to Springtime as well! By telling our story, we have added many thankful pet owners to your list of customers. Even though I have been singing your praise to others, I'm sorry it took me two years to personally thank you! The results have been amazing!
Your customers for life,
Jenna, Ryan, "Mick" and "(Beetle) Bailey" Woerner, Pennsylvania

Just thought I would send a picture of my white Lab, Charlie. He has been on the Joint Health Chewables for about a year and a half. The change in him was remarkable. His main station in life is to play ball. We would always have to keep him idle for a few days due to limping caused by running. Now he never limps after a ball playing session. My boss, Connie Wise, and also an acquaintance, Heather Miller, suggested the Joint Health Chewables. So glad I did. Charlie is going to be 10 years old in September. You'd never know it!
Thank You,

I just had to write to say 'Thank you!' for making our Bernese Mountain Dog, Bella's life pain-free. She was diagnosed at seven months of age with hip problems in her rear right leg. She would waddle and do some bunny hopping when running around. Sometimes at night when she laid on her back and tried to flop her legs from side to side she would yelp in pain. This broke my heart and I knew that she would probably need hip surgery when she stopped growing. I did some research and found that many dogs can live with hip problems simply by managing it with supplements, weight control, and limited exercise. I then searched around for the best supplements I could find, desperately wanting to keep her from hurting.
I found great reviews of your products and ordered some Joint Health Chewables right away. After about two to three weeks I noticed that she had a little more mobility in her back leg and she didn't need to bunny hop (both legs together) anymore. She's now almost two years old and has not yelped once! Thank you, thank you, and thank you for sparing our Berner the dreaded need for surgery. I recommend your products to all my dog owner friends and am now a long time customer!

These are two of my "kids." The Rottie is Brody, who is ten years old this month. Jed is my five year old Lab. They are my best buddies, happy and healthy. They love their Joint Health Chewables and Bug Off Garlic Granules. Jed has an old shoulder injury which has resulted in chronic lameness at times. After starting him on the Joint Health Chewables, he is almost NEVER lame, even after a busy day at the farm.
I also use Bug Off Garlic for my horses, with shiny coats and no fly problems as a result.
Thank you for such wonderful products!

My chocolate Lab, Molly, who is almost six years old seems better since I have begun giving her the Joint Health Chewables. Her coat is much shinier and her hips are not as stiff and sore after exercising.

My 11 year old Collie, Angel, could not walk up the three steps to our home or up the ramp I set up for her. I could not lift her and had difficulty finding neighbors to lift her. It was a nightmare! Her enthusiasm for everything was gone, she slept all day. Within one week of a triple dose of Joint Health Chewables, she was going up stairs. It's been three months now and she prefers the ramp, and she barks to go out for walks (which she had never done!). In fact, I have to drag her home as she wants to walk around town. Neighbors can't believe the difference in her! I never let myself run out of the Joint Health Chewables!

This is Fera, my friend and companion, who is now over ten years of age. When I started her on the Joint Health Chewables a year ago it was because she had such a major joint pain attack that she could not get up off the floor. When she finally stood, she couldn't move and just cried. For immediate relief, she was picked up and carried to the vet and medicated. I refused to have her live life in a drug induced stupor, and I remembered Springtime. She never misses a day, and I give it to her sometimes in her food or sometimes as a treat.
Thank you!

Finally, now that I know how to attach photos, I wanted to share with you my testimonial. Our precious Golden Retriever, Kobe, had hip surgery when he was only a year old. At that time, he could not even climb onto the back of our SUV without assistance. After much research, I found your wonderful product line. After just a couple of months on Joint Health Chewables, Kobe was a new dog. He just celebrated his eighth birthday and has been jumping in and out of cars for years! He can even jump up onto our new bed which has a pillow top mattress!
We are so very grateful for Springtime putting a "spring" back in Kobe's step seven years ago. We have recommended your products to Kobe's vet and all of our friends and relatives.
Thank you again!

Thank you. This is the best joint medication I have ever used for my dogs. Far better than any of the prescriptions! Attached is a photo of one of my older Chocolate Labs, Zoe, comforting Daisy, my 14 year old who is on the Joint Health Chewables.
Two weeks ago, we had a horrific fire at my home and all four of my dogs made it out alive - including Daisy! I am sure the Joint Health Chewables had something to do with the fact that she was able to be coaxed out of the house to safety. What can I say? Thank you!

I have been a customer for over a year now. Enclosed is a photo taken this past December 2008 of our 8 ½ year old, 110 lb. Chesapeake Bay Retriever, "Bruce." You can see he is bouncing with joy chasing snowballs.
Early last year, he had become so stiff and sore most of the day—he just hobbled around and whimpered whenever he tried to get up or lay down. He could no longer go on two-three mile runs with me as he had always done. He stayed in the yard and would start howling when he realized I had left him behind.
A friend (who is a dog trainer) recommended your product, Joint Health Chewables, since it had given her older Shepherd relief from pain. Within a month of starting the tablets (four per day), there was noticeable improvement with Bruce and no sign of the previous pain or discomfort with movement. He began accompanying me on my runs again.
Early this summer, I procrastinated on reordering the chewables on time, and Bruce was without them for two months. All his soreness and stiffness returned and he was back to his miserable state.
Once I started him back on the tablets, it took a month or so for him to resume his bound and "joy." By September 2008, he accompanied me on a week of horse camping in the mountains and logged 50 miles of trotting behind my horse, Shadow. No problems. He is once again my faithful running companion and I don't intend to let him run out of his pills again. Many thanks for your excellent product.

I just wanted to send in a quick thank you for your Longevity product. I adopted Josette, a two year old German Shepherd, in January. She came to me with moderate hip problems in both hips and a mild elbow problem. I found Longevitythrough a lot of research and recommendations and have had her on it for almost as long as we have had Josette. We just went to the vet who told me she was really impressed by this supplement because, based on her x-rays from December, she would have expected her hips to be a lot worse off. Due to the Buy Two Get Two Free deal, I have a lot of Longevitylaying around so I decided to put my other dog, three year old Black Lab named Irie, on it for her horrible coat. I am happy to report both Irie and Josette have the most stunning coats I have ever seen on dogs before. There is minimal shedding and a lot less itching than before they started it. Thanks so much for this wonderful product, you have changed my dogs' lives!

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.
