Out 12 year old Lab was diagnosed with terminal bone cancer and was not getting around very well. She was expected from her ability to get around to have a week left in her before she would either give up and let us know it was time. given that i take supplements myself, i thought what the hey, why not, as i was trying to spoil her with treats as best I could and these just happened to be in a flavor she liked (next day shipping helps too from Prime). She inhaled the things, so they have to taste good (smell good to me).
Odd thing was, she started moving around a bit, still favoring the leg with teh tumor. But moving around like she hadent in years. She still had visible discomfort, but was moving and eating just fine for a few months more than expected, when she slowed down and we knew it was time.
I like to think that these helped ease the rest of her troubles (along with all the extra pampering) and gave us all a bit more time together.
