Nutri-Vet Hip & Joint Dog Biscuits, Dog Treats, 300mg Glucosamine, 6 lb Bag

With 7 large Greyhounds of my own plus fostering new Greys from the track all the time, this house has a minimum of 10 Greys in it at all times. I own and foster only special needs Greyhounds (never a shortage of them), mostly due to broken legs and hocks at the track. I make glucosamine a daily staple in their morning meals (with my Vet's approval of course), regardless of their ages. I've tried countless products, some they liked and some they turned their snouts up in rebellion. Even my 3 older ones who have about 7 teeth total among them like these. (For my toothless wonders, I crush them before adding to their bowl-break into pieces in my hands then use a small 'smack and chop' chopper on the cutting board and scoop the small pieces into individual bowls). My other 4 who still have most of their teeth wait for me at the top of the cellar stairs while I'm filling their bowls and placing one of these peanut butter biscuits on the top of each. While 1-2 try to distract me as I'm hauling all these bowls up the stairs, the others bob and weave in attempts to steal the treats out of the bowls as I near the top of the steps. Have to admit defeat on occasion when I'm not paying attention :( In any event, haven't met a Greyhound yet who does not love these. Not only that, I have seen remarkable improvement in agility, desire to play and romp, renewed interest in toys, consistent improvement in ease in pouncing on the beds, serious athleticism in swiping the tomatoes from my topsy turvys in the yard, even stealing a 3 lb pumpkin off the back step to munch on behind the tree in the back yard. The younger ones have resumed 'running laps' around the yard while the older ones (2 are 11, 9, 8, 5 and 2 are 4) seem younger and instigate play more often than before. They are energetic, not as stiff after a nap or nighttime, want to do more, play more, walk more/further and, while it may be my imagination, the older ones seem to be eating better. (They had gotten to a point where sometimes they would eat, sometimes not, sometimes just nibble a few bites and walk away). All in all, they like this product and I am thrilled already with the positive changes I see in my 'kids' who are always with me and the fosters who arrive in rough shape but leave for happy, responsible homes upon adoption. I dislike pumping meds into any pet when something else will help. I'm sticking with this product. It works for me and mine. I wouldn't purchase 7-10 6 lb bags of this product at a time if my pups weren't exhibiting such remarkable improvements. Their quality of life has definitely improved. Packaging says to allow 4-6 weeks for best results but it took less than 3 weeks for me to begin seeing significant changes in all of my guys and gals. Can't wait to see what 6+ weeks of using this product will produce! Each ALL NATURAL biscuit contains 500 mg glucosamine and is a substantial 'treat'. Biscuits are approx. 3-4" long and perhaps .75" high and quite crunchy to promote strong teeth and healthy gums. They are a bit difficult to break other than in halves. After that initial break, they are too tough to break into smaller chunks, thus the need for my abovementioned 'chopper'. Each bag purchased to date has arrived in excellent condition. Out of 14 6-lb bags to date (2 separate orders), only 2 biscuits were broken in half; nothing was crushed or broken into small chunks. Very little residue at bottom of resealable bags. Unfortunately, I did count the biscuits in the first 2 (original order) bags to determine whether or not I would stick with this product pricewise, but I've forgotten now what that count was so I cannot share that at this time. And because I'm back to order more, if I remember, I'll update this review when I count them again. Directions for use: 1/2 wafer/biscuit per 40 lbs body weight twice daily. PLEASE NOTE: Some (not all) of the statements on the reverse of package - thought I'd share before you buy: - Administer during or after the animal has eaten to reduce potential incidence of gastrointestinal upset. - An exam from a vet is recommended prior to using this product. - Keep out of reach of children. In case of accidental overdose, contact a health professional immediately. - Safe use in pregnant animals or animals intended for breeding is not recommended. - Consult with your vet before using this product in animals with clotting disorders, being treated with anticoagulant medications, diabetes, or any metabolic disorder causing hyperglycemia, history of urinary tract stones, and known allergies to shellfish.

I do not typically write reviews for amazon purchases. No this isn't paid or anything. I'm on here to truly hype up the 6 pound bag of nutri vet hip and joint biscuits. My boy is a chunky 8 year old dog. At the beginning of this year I tried the Sam's club hip and joint two bags worth. DID NOT HELP HIM. I found this nutri vet bag at marshalls in a higher dosage then sams I think it was 250g at marshalls. My dog liked it so when he ran out of those,I found this 300g, 6lb bag. I am now on my 2nd 300g bag but overall 4th bag through nutrivet. My boy Zeus was struggling to get up onto his back legs. He would drag his lower body for a moment then stand, having cramps at night despite full access to water, and couldn't get on the couch without his back legs going out under him. He is now having no issue getting up, jumping on the couch, or standing on his back legs. I love it so much this is now on auto ship another thing I never do either.

I have t2 large breed older pups. My Great Pyrenees Siberian Husky mix has some arthritis in his hips and if he does have his “hippy biscuits” (hippy-because they help my babies hips lol) everyday, it is hard for him to get up from laying down. My yellow lab Pitt bull mix walks so much slower and you can tell she’s hurting when she hasn’t had her “hippy biscuits”. These bones/biscuits with glucosamine have made my pups lives so much better! I’ve got them on auto-ship and will keep buying them for my furbabes forever! GREAT quality biscuits that seem to do the trick! 10/10 recommend!

Bigger than I had imagined, but I break them up for my smaller dog. My dogs love them and seem more energetic within just a week of starting them. My older dog is 12 with bad hips and has started jumping onto the furniture again. They only had them a few weeks, but so far, I will definitely order more.

I’ve been giving my dog the Nutri-Vet Hip & Joint Biscuits, and they’ve quickly become a favorite treat. He absolutely loves them—no hesitation, just tail wags and eager crunching. Beyond the taste, I’ve noticed a real difference in his mobility. He seems more comfortable and less stiff, especially in his hips. The biscuits are easy to portion and feel like a smart way to support joint health without adding extra steps to our routine. It’s great to see a functional treat that actually delivers on its promise. If your dog needs a little joint support and loves a crunchy snack, these are worth trying.

I have a very big dog, so I am always worrying about his health. I’ve been using this product for many months now. I mean I can’t tell medically if it’s working, but he likes them. They don’t smell at all, and he enjoys them. I will continue to buy.

Our 9 year old ~50lb blue heeler/border collie cross girl dog shows a near immediate difference between orders of these. Yeah, I know, it is completely my fault not hers for not ordering the next couple of bags before the current one runs out. She'd be right on top of it if she could. Anyway... she has had a broken front leg most of her life, and is showing a little soreness once in a while in her rear right hip without these biscuits. Several days off of these biscuits is too long. But within a day or two of feeding these to her, she's back to walking normal again. I know I know. some of you might be calling BS on that, but I know our little girl dog here and how sensitive she is to any change in nutrition. Just a few kibbles make a difference with her weight. she's fed twice a day, about a cup or a little less each time, and one of these biscuits with her supper. Nutri-Vet did a very good job with these. If I liked peanut butter flavor, I'd eat'em too for my bad joints. You definitely can't beat the mg/biscuit for the price. In short, I'd most definitely recommend these for any dog who needs 'em. They work. And of course, Amazon always has the best price - even though several other places try to undercut amazon by a few bucks, they kill the deal with their shipping costs. One thing that cracks me up though about Amazon, is the big box of these is, per biscuit or per pound, MORE expensive than buying a few 6lb'ers. so watch that. Bulk is not always in your favor. If it is the box convenience you're after, use a plastic tub at home 'n empty the bags into it. Oh, the bags also reseal to keep these from drying out - they're alreay crumbly crunchy texture, but I guess it makes us people feel better to think our dog(s) are getting the most fresh they can. Good luck, and remember - always do your best to be the great person your dog figures you are - it helps. Chuck

My dogs love these! I purchase over and over!
