Arthritis and Joint-Pain Issues with Dogs & Cats
There are many forms of painful Mobility issues with pets, especially Dogs. This page touches on only one of them, with further information found here - ARTHRITIS/JOINT-PAIN
ARTHRITIS - THE MOST FREQUENT CAUSE OF PAIN SYMPTOMS
There are many types of Arthritis and associated causes of degenerative joint disease in pets (and humans). Symptoms include mobility problems such as difficulty in rising, walking, running, climbing steps, or even standing. These symptoms result from the less obvious symptoms of pain, swelling, and inflammation along with the actual destruction of cartilage and joints quite often. Causative factors can include improper lubrication in the joints along with buildup of toxins and free-radicals.
In soft tissue injuries, torn ligaments can destabilize the joint area which can then cause dislocation of its natural position and sometimes the need for surgery.
AUTOIMMUNE ARTHRITIS
This form is also known as Rheumatoid Arthritis, and comes about when the body attacks its own immune system causing serious pain, inflammation, joint swelling and deformity of the joints.
INFECTIOUS ARTHRITIS
Also known as Septic Arthritis/Septicemia is often diagnosed as HOD or Hypertrophic Osteodystrophy by mistake. Septic Arthritis is an infection of the blood and a misdiagnosis can be a life threatening situation for your pet. For more information on HOD see - Help, My Puppy Has HOD.
OSTEOARTHRITIS
This form is probably the most common version, and can be referred to as degenerative joint disease. It typically is the result of aging, trauma to the joint, or infection caused damage to the joints. Osteoarthritis, in the form of elbow or hip dysplasia, can have numerous causes; i.e., genetics, nutrition, injury and normal wear and tear on the joints, which then cause inflammation, reduced flexibility and less mobility.
SIMPLE HELP FOR A COMMON PROBLEM
Every pet, regardless of age must have a daily source of living dietary enzymes in their diet to help replenish the body's valuable and needed nutritional resources. NZYMES® products help fulfill this dietary need while also helping the body to reduce inflammation and then cleanse toxins and free radicals from soft tissue, along with supporting the body's immune function as well.
So, for Dogs, Cats, or other pets, significant relief for Arthritis and similar Joint-Pain issues can be surprisingly simple. As just mentioned, there are two NZYMES® products (seen to your left) that can help support the body with needed resources - with the final result of having an amazing effect on these types of pain issues. For a better understanding, move to the next TAB - How Can NZYMES Help.
Arthritis Symptoms: Limping, favoring a leg, difficulty in rising, difficulty in climbing steps/stairs, difficulty with jumping or getting in or out of a vehicle, difficulty walking or running, apparent lethargy (preference on resting). whimpering or indication of pain.
How NZYMES® Granules or Antioxidant Treats Can HelpWhile some medications can provide help with inflammation reduction, most carry the worry of side-effects and will not likely aid the body in resolving any underlying problem. By contrast, the special 'live nutrition' found in the NZYMES® products provide benefits to the body enabling the metabolic mechanisms to quickly relieve inflammatory issues, and then support the bodily mechanisms responsible for cleansing – especially of toxins and free radical buildup. This process alone can make a solid difference in joint-health, as the buildup of these items in joint tissue can affect swelling and inflammation.
The power of the body to restore and repair, or just simply work better, when it receives the RESOURCES it needs is a wondrous thing to see. NZYMES®Granules or Treats are products which provide the body with those RESOURCES. The effective result is a body stronger in its ability to cleanse, repair and restore – solving its own problems, simply by having received what it needed. We have a Video Demo that lets you see all this in action.

I was very upset that my beautiful lab, Aria, was aging. She was having trouble raising her hind legs off the floor, especially when it was cold or damp. I so wanted her to be more like the active puppy she used to be.
So, when I heard about NZYMES®Antioxidant Treats, I thought I'd give them a try. As an RN, I could see there were only good things in each tablet, so how could it hurt? Since starting Aria on NZYMES®, she is much friskier than before and now has no trouble rising from the floor. After using NZYMES® for about 2 months she was remarkably better. Our neighbors are stunned to see the difference in her activity level and remark all the time about how much better she looks and how much more of a "spring in her step" they can't believe the difference.
She has been taking NZYMES® for almost one year and when she encounters her canine friends while out for a walk, she is almost puppy like as she runs up to greet them and she will again bounce up and down with excitement (as she used to do when she was a pup).
Thank you so much for giving me back my youthful "pup"!! I'm sure she'll be around for quite some time now.
Bear L. Breed: Dalmatian Age: 12 yrs Problems: Spinal Arthritis, Shedding, Bad disc
September 18, 2000 Our story began when our dog Bear had to go into the hospital for X-rays of his back. He was diagnosed with a bad disc, and the doctor suggested spinal surgery and prescribed steroids. I chose to NOT operate as I wouldn't do that to myself. I had heard about your product, so I stopped using the steroids and started Bear on NZYMES®. In just 3 weeks he was so much better, and had returned to taking our mile or so walks daily.
His back is like new and I know it, because we have a 6-foot fence in our back yard and possums walk across the top which drives Bear crazy. Before the problem occurred he would jump against the fence trying to get them to fall off in our yard. Sometimes he was successful. But, he had stopped this fun as he couldn't do it anymore because of the pain. After taking NZYMES® for 8 weeks he started possum hunting again he is enjoying his fence bouncing once more.
Bear is a mixed breed, part Dalmatian, part Pit Bull, with short hair. I always assumed his extreme shedding was from the heat here in Florida. When I would rub my hands up and down his back and I would get so much hair off I could stuff a pillow. Since he began taking NZYMES®, the shedding is almost nonexistent; it is the most amazing thing. Thank you for this wonderful product.

Cody Breed: Great Dane Age: 12 yrs Problems: Arthrits, Severe
The very first time I used the NZYMES®Granules was with a 4 year old Dane. She was so frail from early arthritis that I actually set up an appointment to have her put to sleep. At the time, she could hardly walk and I was not able to lift a 135 lb. dog. This was a Tuesday and I set the appointment for the following Saturday.
Later that day I went over to Grays boarding kennel to pick-up my dog-food order and told Jane about my bitch and her problems. She said she had received something in the mail that day that is supposed to help pets with arthritis. Later, I called and ordered a bottle.
I postponed Cody's euthanasia date and started her on the NZYMES®Granules formula in 4 days. Within two days I recognized a difference in her. Within 4 days she was up walking on her own. After a week on the product I canceled the euthanasia date.
Cody lived and additional 8 years pain free". She died when she jumped a 6 ft chain link fence and hung up in the top gate. An infection set in and I had to put her to sleep. She was the equivalent of 120 years old in human years. That was my first time experience with the powerful natural formula found in NZYMES® and that is why I am sold on your product. For the last 15 years I have used it with all my pets.
March 23, 2000 Daizy is 10 years old, part yellow lab and beagle. She hurts all the time in the hind legs. We have been to many uncaring vets and who've prescribed steroids, antibiotics or painkillers by the ton. Daizy always knows they make her feel worse and don't seem to help at all. Currently she is on Rimadyl and it does work, however, I am concerned about the side effects. The vet also said she was borderline thyroid case, and prescribed .05 thyrozine for 6 weeks.
I just ordered her a bottle of NZYMES®Antioxidant Treats so I am looking forward to help. She is a very sweet loving dog. She never knows a stranger and loves everyone.
Update: July 2, 2000 Daizy just had all her tests done, liver, etc. And there was NO bad anything. Thank goodness. What I DO know is... that she feels a lot better and is NO LONGER taking any medication for arthritis! In fact, she gets around just fine. She is overweight, but I think since starting on NZYMES®, Daizy has probably lost 2 lbs., but I am not sure. You know, something just told me to log on and look for help that night in March. I am so glad we found you.
Thanks again, Julia Knight - Holly Hill, SC
Reported Symptoms: Arthritis, Painful Hind legs, Medication concerns
Dakota is a big, strong dog. I love him with all my heart. So it was horrible watching him start to decline. He is an indoor dog & I watched him slow down; you could see it was painful to get up and down. He wouldn't jump onto the bed or his favorite couch to look outside anymore.
The vets would always remark on how fortunate I was to 'still have him' at the age of 10, and that arthritis was to blame for his discomfort. They recommended a steroid drug to help with the inflammation, however it would harm his liver. I held off making any decisions, I wasn't in any rush to pump him full of steroids. I changed his diet to an all natural home cooked diet, lots of boiled chicken breast and rice. We relieved some pain just by reducing his weight.
We were trying everything... daily, low dose aspirin, diet supplements, vitamins; we tried it all, yet Dakota stayed inactive and uncomfortable. We continued his daily walks, they just were shorter and slower. It wasn't the walking that hurt it; was the getting up and down, he just didn't have the strength to do it. We had to do something.
Then in late 2007, I was traveling with my elderly mother and was in the pre-board area of a Southwest flight leaving Vegas when we struck up a conversation with an elderly man. My mother and he were comparing prescription med stories and poor health tales when this stranger brought up NZYMES. He spoke so proudly of the product that it really sparked my moms interest. He told us how much it had helped him improve and regain mobility in his life. He looked great and said he felt fabulous.
Once I got home I looked it up on the internet and read the testimonials. I was so hopeful.... not just for my ailing mother but for Dakota too! I ordered the Treats, Drops and Granules immediately. We started a regimen the day they arrived and Dakota has improved immensely. He has responded so well, he's playing with our other 2 dogs. He's walking a mile a day and happy again. He's still slow getting up, but he no longer falls or collapses. His quality of life has improved so much, people don't realize he's 14, they think he's around 7 or 8. Nyzmes saved Dakota's life. We are so thankful!
Duke is our 7 year old Labrador Retriever. He is a large male, and overly "loved". At 80 lbs., his weight and genetic predisposition lean towards arthritis in his legs. He has had difficulty raising himself and was visibly stiff and limping. We had to limit his walks because he could hardly make it home at times.
Two weeks ago we started Duke on two (2) NZYMES® treats a day . In just one week he showed real improvement. We are extending his walks now and he continues to be pain free. It is so wonderful to see my little buddy 'NOT' limping across the room to me!
Besides his arthritis, Duke has always been a massive shedder. He still sheds, but before the NZYMES® he was losing whole clumps of fur at a time, and that has ended. I expect it will get better as time goes on.
Duke is an true "expert" at faking pill swallowing, but these chewable tablets are readily accepted which makes it so much easier to give them to him because he thinks he's getting a treat. I am very satisfied with the performance of NZYMES® and recommend them for anyone's little buddy.
My 12-year-old male dog ELMO, a 118 lb. Boxer-Rottweiller, had been limping and I thought there was something stuck in his paw. I had noticed other changes in his behavior over the last year as well; he had stopped jumping up on the couch where he likes to nap, He had stopped digging holes in the backyard and lastly, at least a year ago, he had stopped coming up the stairs to our outside deck. I brought him to the vet and he was diagnosed with arthritis.
I started him on 4 NZYMES®Antioxidant Treats a day for 2 weeks on March 18, 2000. I then lowered the dosage to 2 tabs a day as instructed on the label. I noticed an improvement in Elmo after about 4 weeks. He's stopped limping and just this week I caught him taking naps on our couch again.
Today, I found a 3-foot hole in the backyard - some of Elmo's work. Elmo still shows some stiffness in his hind legs when rising and he hasn't yet made it up our deck staircase (the final test). So now, I am increasing his NZYMES® dosage to 3 a day in hopes that it will improve this stiffness. I've also changed his food to Eagle Pack Senior Care dog food 2 weeks ago.
Sadly, after days of trying to get him to come up the stairs on the deck using bait I finally just gave up. I'm pretty sure he's now conditioned himself psychologically into thinking he CANNOT make it up the steps anymore.
Update: 6/4/00 - GREAT NEWS - Elmo made it up my deck staircase today! Today when my stepfather, Charlie, came over - Elmo was in the yard. Charlie came up the stairs to the deck and Elmo followed him to the bottom of the stairs and sadly sat down. So, Charlie entered the house from the deck and mentioned how sad it is that Elmo can't make those steps anymore. Then after about 2 or 3 minutes - Elmo suddenly appeared on the deck. I must say that Elmo is just crazy about Charlie - because he always acknowledges Elmo and gives him a dog biscuit.
Update 6/28/00 - Since my last email, Elmo came up the deck stairs 2 more times Both occasions were when there were people in my house he wanted to see, so - he came up the steps. Who knows, maybe if my stepfather (who Elmo loves) lived here, then Elmo would come up those steps every day.
All in all, I see a definite improvement in his mobility. He now lifts his leg when he urinates, and is back to digging big holes in the yard. These are things he stopped doing last year. He now can put his full weight (118 pounds) on both paws. (And that's a lot of weight!) By the way, Elmo officially turned 12 years old on May 31, 2000.
It's sad that dogs have such a short life span, compared to humans, but I like to think I could make his stay on earth a healthier one, and he could live out his twilight years free from pain. Overall - I think NZYMES® have improved Elmo's health. His face even looks brighter and more alert. He loves the NZYMES® and takes them just like they are special treats.
Update 6/3/03 - As I was placing a reorder of NZYMES®, I thought I'd drop you a note to let you know that Elmo is still hanging in there. He turned 15 years old on May 31, 2003. I give him 3 NZYMES®Antioxidant Treats a day & Eagle pack Senior dry dog food. His appetite is still very good. His hind legs are very stiff now andI sometimes have to help him rise to a standing position, but he can still walk on his own. About a year ago, we adopted Lucy, a pitbull/boxer mix, from a local shelter. She is now 1 1/2 years old and I give her 1 treat a day as preventive maintenance dose.
Update: September 30, 2003 I'm writing to inform you sadly on September 20, 2003 we had to have our dear Elmo euthanized.The vet at the animal hospital said she doesn't see many dogs the size of Elmo living to that age.
It was a very hard decision but his quality of life had diminished. In July, Elmo started losing his appetite and for about a year, he had lost control of his bodily functions. He would sleep most of the day and pant heavily most of the time. It would have been cruel to let him linger. He was 15 1/2 years old and in human years we estimated his age to be around 115 due to his weight and breed. I do feel that the NZYMES® helped Elmo live out his full life span.
Jade, my yellow lab had always been a very healthy dog. Late one night, right after she turned 10 years old she experienced a seizure. After she experienced another one two weeks later, I took her to the vet in order to find out what the problem was. Some testing was done and the vet prescribed Phenobarbital for her epilepsy. She remained on the medication for approximately one year.
Jade came to work with me everyday and about 6 months down the road a friend at work gave me some Nzymes because of the difficulty Jade was showing when getting up. You could tell that her movement was slow and very uncomfortable.
After about 8 days on the NZYMES® Jade began to show some improvement, moving easier, and getting up quicker. After two weeks, there was a big difference. Her mobility had improved considerably and she was almost puppy like again. Weeks later, she even stood on her hind legs again and climbed stairs more easily. Everyone that knew Jade said they couldn't believe the difference in her.
I know the NZYMES® reduced the severity and the amount of seizures Jade would have. Once, I ran out of NZYMES® for two weeks. It was then that I realized how much the NZYMES® were helping her. I made sure I never ran out again after that. They truly made her life better in every way and made our time together so much better too.
Jade has passed on since then. I guess her time had come. But thanks to NZYMES® Jade and I had more quality time together and that's what counted. I miss my beloved Jade more than words can say, But I know my next dog, when I'm ready, will be on NZYMES® for sure.
January 5, 2004 Jake has always been an energetic, active part of our family, going everywhere with us. About a year ago he started displaying signs of arthritis, deteriorating very quickly. This was heartbreaking for us as he now was battling to get up and was in a lot of pain. Instead of following me everywhere, he now just watched where I went and only attempted to get up when I went out of sight.
We tried numerous homeopathic remedies which showed no improvement in Jake. We then started Jake on Rimadyl which did help slightly but only with a very high dosage. We were very concerned about the negative side effects of this medication but were advised by our Vet that the only option we had was to keep him on the Rimadyl or put Jake down. I was devastated with that diagnosis.
Out of desperation I searched the internet and found NZYMES® . After reading the testimonials I decided I had to try the product even though the cost of the product and increased cost of shipping to South Africa would be very expensive, we had to at least try it - for Jake's sake.
Jake has been on the NZYMES®Granules for 1 month now and I honestly can't believe the difference in him. He is up and about like he was 5 years old again. He never battles to get up, even in the cold weather and it seems to have increased his energy levels as well. He has not had a Rimadyl tablet since starting with the NZYMES®Granules. Thank you so much to NZYMES for giving my best friend a new lease on life!
Our 11 year-old Golden/Collie Mix has always been plagued by recurring ear infections... and, from time to time, "hot spots." Shortly before Christmas, however, he started having severe mobility problems. He was having trouble getting up and down the steps and even getting up from his constant nap was a problem. He was also lethargic and cranky.
Always looking for natural remedies, I came across NZYMES online and ordered immediately. That was just a little over a month ago - and the difference is incredible!! Within a few days of taking the NZYMES Antioxidant Treats supplement, he was much perkier and was running up and down the steps! His personality is back and he is a happy puppy once again! And, even more incredibly ... he had a soft, slow-growing tumor that he has had for several years. As I was grooming him recently, I noticed that - amazingly - it's almost gone! I know that sounds crazy -- and I'm not sure why it's gone -- but the only real difference in his diet is the addition of the NZYMES Antioxidant Treats supplements! I am recommending NZYMES to everyone I know - and I'm going to order the "human" version for myself!
Karli Breed: Labrador Retriever Age: 13 yrs Problems: Arthritis, Hip dysplasia, Hip dislocation, Lethargy
September, 2009
Karli had fallen down a few stairs back in March 2009, causing her to dislocate her hip. She became very lethargic and at one point could not get up on her own free will. She was starting to urniate and poop in the house. I had taken her to the vet who said she had severe hip displaysia and also had devloped arthritis in her back legs. He gave her a shot of Vetlog to see if it would help & put her on supplements (Dasaquin with MSM) to help build up cartiledge in her legs.
I did see some improvement, but she still had problems getting up & down on her hind end. I was at a point where I had to carry her in & out of the house. The vet said I could continue the shots every 5 to 6 weeks if I felt it was helping her but there was not much more I could do without surgery (No guarantee that would work either). He stated that she was not in any pain due to the shots but did not think there was much more I could do to improve the quality of her life, and eventually I would have to put her down.
I decided I would try anything within reason to keep from doing this. I looked into braces & leashes that support the hind end but they didn't seem to work. Handicap carts were out of my budget. By chance one day I was searching the internet for hip displaysia treatments & came across NZYMES®. The product was a lot cheaper then the supplements and shots. Also, with a money back guarantee, how could you go wrong. I watched the video of Lilly on this website & decided to give it a try. The first week was bad, causing her to have diarrea in the house. After 2 weeks I called NZYMES Support and was told to stay with it for the 90 day trial period.
I am happy to say that after 6 Weeks I am seeing a noticable improvement. She is getting up on her own & has a lot more energy than before. Granted she still has bad days but overall she has more good than bad days. I just wanted to say that people have laughed at the possiblity this could be a miracle pill (as I say it is), but my dog is living proof. I would recommend this product (at least to give it a try); if I hadn't, I might have had to put her down for the sake of her not being able to function as a whole on her own.

Symptoms/Problems: Hip dislocation, Lethargy, Arthritis, Hip dysplasia
My dog is a 13 year old Lab/Shepherd mix with arthritis and excessive shedding (problems). I purchased my first canister of the NZYMES Granules last December, and changed her food to Eagle Pack Senior after reading your food recommendations on the website.
Within a few months I saw an improvement in both the shedding and arthritis. The icing on the cake came 2 weeks ago - after routine blood work. The vet called me and said, "Your dog has the blood work of a 2 year old dog!!" I attribute this to the NZYMES ® and (the) food change. What you feed your pet and the supplements you give is well worth the extra cost, as I make no trips to the vet between yearly visits and I have a happy, healthy dog.
My neighbor has a dog the same age as mine and his blood work showed thyroid and liver issues even though she feeds a premium dog food. The supplements DO help. THANK YOU NZYMES!!
Kokanee is 10 1/2 yrs old and he has been on NZYMES® for about 7 months now. He strained his front shoulder chasing a fox in deep snow about 4 years ago. He was given a steroid shot to help in his recovery but still developed arthritis. The arthritis kept getting worse especially during the cold damp winters until finally his vet prescribed "Rimadyl" for him. He was on this drug for about a year however after that amount of time, the drug did not seem to be helping anymore.
During a house-hunting trip to Kingston, we stopped in a pet store for some treats for Kokanee. I picked up some with shark cartilage and when paying for it, the salesgirl asked if we had tried NZYMES®Antioxidant Treats, Her mother apparently started giving them to their dog and had noticed improvement in a short period of time. So we bought some NZYMES® and to our delight after only one bottle, he noticed that Kokanee wasn't limping as much; had greater mobility in jumping on our bed and climbing stairs. An added benefit was a brighter coat and less shedding.
Kokanee also has a mild case of epilepsy and in the past, had about three or four seizures a year, which only lasted a maximum of 5-15 minutes. Since taking NZYMES® he hasn't had any. Another benefit. We now get our NZYMES® from Pet Supply House in Canada.

Two months ago I started my Bassett hound, ”Ladybelle” on NZYMES® Antioxidant Treats. Soon after, I noticed that a black discharge normally seen in her saliva had stopped and even a fatty tissue on her body has reduced in size.
Ladybelle does have osteoporosis and the NZYMES® have helped her with this battle. In fact, her respiratory system seems better as she is not breathing as heavily as she was in past.
Lilly is a dog with a history of degenerative disc disease. With Lilly's spine degraded by the disease, she became immobilized (virtually paralyzed) after cracking 4 'caps' that had grown to protect the discs. Seizures were the root cause of the incident that resulted in the broken caps. The pain left the dog unable to move for many days.

This video was provided by the customer - of her own accord. She obviously felt that ordering NZYMES® held great promise for helping her dog; the video tells all.
My dog Maggie is just finishing her third bottle of NZYMES®Antioxidant Treats and I am amazed at the difference. I was skeptical at first, but was desperate to get her off of the Rimadyl medication (for arthritis) she was on. She had chronic ear infections due to allergies, and she was lifeless. She really starting coming around on her second bottle and I am convinced that your product is a lifesaver for my dog.
Maggie has taken thyroid medication for almost six years and the last time I had her blood tested, her thyroid function had improved, which means she needs to take less medicine. She almost acts like a puppy again which I never thought I would see. She is feeling so good, she is getting into mischief again, but that's okay because I know she is feeling well.
Anyway, I just ordered NZYMES®Antioxidant Complex for people and I want to try it on myself and my son who has problems with depression and Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD). I am so glad I found your website and have been passing the word along to other people.
Over the past few years, Maggie has gradually gotten stiffer. She was unable to jump up on my bed and she moved with difficulty each time she arose from a nap. Within a short time after she started taking NZYMES®Antioxidant Treats, she was a smiling, jumping, and a happy little girl again. She's almost like a puppy again!
My husband keeps thinking that the NZYMES® are pepping her up, but I've told him that she's just feeling so much better that she's naturally just more active now.
July 11, 2000 I am writing you about my dog Miracle, a 16-year-old Longhair Dachshund. Miracle began taking Nzymes around the second week in May and I must tell you she is doing really great. She started showing noticeable improvement in just a few days.
Since I have been giving her NZYMES®, I noticed that Miracle's coat is much softer and that she has really perked up. She moves around so much better and her joints don't seem to hurt her like they did before. Years ago, we had put in a ramp for her but she could not make it up anymore. However, in the past month she has been able to come up the ramp and in the doggie door by herself.
Previously, I had been giving her aspirin, but now I no longer need to give her anything but the NZYMES®. The other night she even woke me up to go out side to do her business. At this point due to her age I feel happy just to have her and I take it one day at a time. I have to say that I am so happy I found your web site.
Oso Breed: Labrador Retriever Age: 14 yrs Problems: Age, Arthrits, Overweight, Difficulty moving, Injured left hip and elbow
July 31, 2000 Oso has been a dear friend and devoted hunting partner for 13 years. He acquired two soft tissue injuries in the years of hunting. One 8 years ago to his left hip and one 6 years ago to his left elbow. These injuries were never truly healed because OSO has always been a "Hard Charger". In addition, his age and the onset of arthritis have added to the previous injuries.
A friend of my mom, here in San Diego, suggested your NZYMES® as a possible source of help because they had helped their pet so much.
I must say the change in OSO after just two weeks of being on NZYMES® and absolutely amazing and heaven sent. OSO had all but stopped taking walks or playing ball. Now, He lets me know it's time to go (5 a.m. & 6 p.m.)! He had stopped riding to work and now he's riding with me again. How do you thank the one(s) that help so much! NZYMES® really work!
Thank you, Rico Cortez (for OSO) - San Diego, CA

Panda Breed: Great Dane Age: 12 yrs Problems: Aging, Osteoarthritis, Severe joint pain, Difficulty Rising & Jumping
January 8, 2008 My 12 year old Panda developed old age, "wear and tear" osteoarthritis. Her movement was slowing down, she was experiencing great difficulty rising in the morning (we had to help her up to get going), she could no longer jump on the bed, and she stopped running and playing in the yard with our other dogs. Initially our vet prescribed an anti-inflammatory (Medicam). 6 weeks following use of this anti-inflammatory, Panda experienced severe side-effects including the beginnings of ulceration of her stomach and terribly loose, bloody-mucus filled stools.
We immediately pulled her from the meds and started her on a regimen of NZYMES®Granules, Ox-E-Drops and Tincture of Blackleaf. Her stomach and stools completely turned around, she gets up and rises in the morning with ease, she is back to jumping up on the bed and she runs with the other dogs again now in the yard, enjoys her frolics of chasing birds.NZYMES® returned Panda's quality of life!
Polo Breed: Jack Russell Terrier Age: 11 yrs Problems: Arthritis, Limping, Whining
January 10, 2006
Arthritis help for dogs: After just 2 (yes TWO) of your NZYMES® Antioxidant Treats, our Jack Russell terrier, Polo, went from a limping, whining old dog to like a 2 year old puppy! He has now been on NZYMES® since the 1st of September 2005, and was reduced to 1 treat per day after 1 week, and has been great ever since!
NZYMES® for people: My husband and I have also been taking the NZYMES® Antioxidant Complex for people and I have noticed a HUGE difference with my health. Every December for previous years, I'd had a cold/flu.
My husband got sick ~ come to find out he stopped taking the NZYMES® 'because he didn't notice a difference' (it DOES take more than one week to notice the changes!). Anyway, I always get sick if he's sick, but I swear that since I was taking my NZYMES®, I didn't get a cold or anything! I have him back on the NZYMES® and he's a believer. I also take my NZYMES® every day. Thanks again for such a great product and thank you for giving me my "puppy" back.
Rhianna is my 11 year old female Queensland Healer. She's had arthritis for a couple of years and a thyroid problem which developed about 5 years ago. Earlier this year I also found out she had cancer which developed in a tumor on her eyelid.
Being a holistic healer, I had been trying to find some sort of natural product to help her arthritis pain and other symptoms. One day I stopped into my local pet shop and asked if they knew of anything which could possibly help Rhianna's problems. The owner of the pet shop told me about NZYMES® which she had just started giving her own dog for a skin condition just a week before.
Well I got a bottle and I noticed a difference in Rhianna's mobility right away plus her bloating has reduced considerably. You don't know how good it feels to see her back to her old-self again. You'd never know that she's 11 years old.
Rhianna loves her NZYMES® treats and so does my 13 year old cat. I will recommend them to my friends and family who have pets.
June 28, 2000 Our 12-year-old Bull terrier, Spike, has always been healthy but this last year he started to move more stiffly so I went in search of something to help. I found NZYMES.COM on the Internet and placed and order. Within a couple of weeks Spike's stiffness had been greatly alleviated and he was moving like a younger dog.
However, in April, all of a sudden, he lost strength and the movement in his rear legs and in a couple of days, also in his front legs. He could not walk at all or even stand without collapsing. We took him to 3 vets and a specialist in neurology. A variety of tests continued to come up empty and the diagnosis eventually was that was Spike probably had contracted a virus that paralyzed nerve endings along the spine not allowing signals to the brain. The symptoms resembled something called Coon Hound Syndrome. No one offered any treatment possibilities other than Spike might get better on his own but most probably the virus would continue to reoccur.
Spike still had so much spirit that there was no way I could give up on him. In desperation, I contacted the people at NZYMES® to see if knew of anything that could help. They put me in contact with two wonderful caring people who designed a health/nutrition program for Spike. We increased his NZYMES® and added some health food supplements.
Then, they arranged for us to get a new product they thought could help, called NZYMES®Oxy Drops. This is a non-toxic anti-viral, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal agent that goes into Spike's water everyday.
Within 2 weeks Spike was on his way to getting his health back. The improvements were subtle at first, but at the end of 2 weeks he was getting up and down on his own and walking again. Everyday he gets stronger and his muscle tone is returning. He is one happy dog again. On behalf of Spike and the entire Myhre household, we extend our heartfelt thanks for a company that goes an extra mile.
UPDATE - December 11, 2001 It has been a year and a half since Spike went through what was apparently some kind of virus. We keep him on 2 NZYMES® treats per day along with 2-4 drops of your new Oxy Drops. He will be 14 years old in April and is doing great.
July 10, 2002, In February 2002, our 9-month-old Newfoundland, Webster, was diagnosed with severe Canine Hip Dysplasia. Needless to say, we were heartbroken. After hearing about NZYMES®Antioxidant Treats from a friend in March, we decided to give it a try.
As you can see from this photo taken in early May 2002, Webster is doing fine, and looking his bright-eyed self. He hasn't had any more sleepless nights from the painful joints, and we've also noticed how beautiful and shiny his coat is.
I have recommended NZYMES®Antioxidant Treats to all my friends with pets. We've recently adopted another Newfoundland, “Diggie-Doo”, and we've started him on NZYMES® at 12 weeks old.

January 3, 2005 I started using NZYMES®Ox-E-Drops about 3 months ago. Before using them I was at the vet every two months with Zoe, usually spending about $60.00 each time for tests and medications. I use the products twice a day as instructed, and since I started using them, there have been no more urinary tract infections! It was like a miracle! These Ox-E-Drops really do work! I have been putting it in the cats water bowls also. I see the difference in both their coats with less hair around the house! I have to be honest I didn't think it would work. But it did!
I gave the NZYMES®Antioxidant Treats to my sister-in-law because my niece’s dog Minnie has had bad stomach problems since she was a puppy (she was found and was abused). Well after a couple of weeks of taking them - she is doing much better. She doesn't have many stomach attacks at all since she has been taking them. So your product is for real!
Thank you! I though I would be at the vet's office each month for the rest of my life! I have been introducing the product to my relatives and friends who have dogs with medical conditions.
Thanks again, Tammy Testino and Zoe - West Milford, NJ
To See the Benefits from either product that you choose, simply follow the recommendations on the bottle or jar specified for the weight of your pet. Be sure to provide for the doubling period - of about 14-15 days.
Here are examples - of supplementation to a DOG of about 50 lbs:
If using Treats - provide the dog with 2 Treats per day for 14-15 days (doubling period, to boost cleansing and increased anti-inflammatory activity). After this period, provide your pet with 1 Treat per day. Very serious cases may require doubling for an extended period of time - to help the body normalize. You may have to play this by ear.
If using Granules - for the same 50lb DOG, you will likely have a FREE bottle of Treats, provided to help with the Doubling period. Use the Treats for this period, exactly as in item 1. After the doubling period, the normal distribution to a Dog this size is 1/2 Teaspoon per day. You can substitute 1 Treat any time you wish. The Granules can be mixed with dry food, wet food, or a small amount of plain yogurt (or similar wet, low-sugar item).
Secondary to adding the NZYMES products to the diet, we always suggest that you review our recommended foods list, as most of the Big-Brand foods available will be adding significant amounts of chemicals (preservatives, antibiotics, colorings/dyes, pest prevention) to the food which can build up over time and cause degenerative disease in your pets.

much perkier and was running up and down the steps! His personality is back and he is a happy puppy once again! And, even more incredibly ... he had a soft, slow-growing tumor that he has had for several years. As I was grooming him recently, I noticed that - amazingly - it's almost gone! I know that sounds crazy -- and I'm not sure why it's gone -- but the only real difference in his diet is the addition of the
