Sophie - A 11 Year old female Border Collie
“Sophie”, an 11 year-old female neutered border collie with severe osteoarthritis in hips, stifles, and elbows bilaterally.
NSAIDs and Cartrophen gave only mild relief, and “Sophie” had difficulty with steps, trotting, and getting in and out of the car.
Now, 1 month after treatment, her owner says “I have my old dog back again!”
“Sophie” can now jump into the car, and trots and runs with a new lease on life.
