Real Letters Advanced Hip & Joint 2015 Johnson Sondra B

Dear Springtime,

Good morning. One of our beloved dogs, Heidi, a 6 year old Bernese Mountain Dog/Golden Retriever mix was born with bad hips. That didn't keep her from being a happy, wonderful puppy. This past year, though, she has struggled with a limp on her front right leg. This made walking horrible for her, but she insisted not only on walking daily through the woods with the rest of the pack, but also going upstairs to bed at night. The vet had her on Tramadol and anti-inflammatory therapy, which wasn't making much difference (perhaps keeping her pain down). Finally, many X-rays showed that she has only one good joint. Surgery for one knee, two hips, and two front "elbows," which was going to be upwards of $25,000 – with no guarantees.

The vet suggested a supplement called Glycoflex III, but I called your place of business, and after talking about Heidi's issues, I decided to begin your Advanced Hip & Joint Chewables with boswellia (a.k.a. frankincense). I have a good friend, Yvonne Burgan, who can't say enough about your products.

As an herbalist of long standing (nearly 40 years), I was preparing to treat her herbally, when after only one week of starting the supplement, there is a huge difference in her walk as well as her attitude! Whereas before she lay around most of the time, now she's up and ready to go as soon as she hears me pick up my purse.

I can't wait to see what the months ahead bring! Thanks so much! With five dogs to look after, two of them 10 years old, and depending greatly on Social Security for our income, I'm very careful about what I purchase for the animals. I believe this purchase from you was extremely worthwhile!
