 Safe pain relief at a great price June 14, 2008

I have been giving my precious old friend and secret favorite child, a big black & white, blue eyed Lab-Husky mix (I think) for about 5 years. I use the powder form because it mixes well into her food and seems to actually improve the flavor for her (she'll lick the dry powder if I let her). Most importantly, it has made a real difference in reducing the swelling and pain from her very arthritic joints. It is important to mention, as others have, that the product usually takes about 3 months to show its effects, so a bit of patience is called for. Also, the literature suggests that this type of supplement works for about 65% of dogs, so there is a chance it won't help, but certainly well worth a 3 month's worth investment at Amazon's price. This is actually the first time I'm purchasing this from Amazon, and I could kick myself for not checking here sooner since I shop here with some regularity. Forget the Vet. Although my vet first suggested Synovi (thank you very much), his price was $80, and that was 5 years ago! Fortunately a vet assistant suggested that I might find it less expensive online and when I did, that same day, I was able to return the overpriced purchase to the Vet's office. Since then I have been purchasing from another internet source at about $44 + shipping, per 960 gm tub, not bad at all, but not near Amazon's price. The bottom line is that this stuff works (and in spite of the literature I don't know any pooch for whom it hasn't worked as advertised) and you can't beat Amazon's price, even without free shipping. If your best friend suffers from arthritic pain and swelling, I highly recommend giving Synovi G3 a try, and get it here as long as the price is right.
Joint pain relief for dogs June 4, 2008
Beverly A. Jackson
G3s Synovi has helped our 14 year old English setter regain his ability to do stairs in our home. He was not able to climb or be comfortable lying down. For two years now, he has been able to move with greater ease and has less pain from his aging hips. Steroids could not give him the relief he has now.
If your dog is suffering from joint or inflammation problems, give it a good 3 month try. I believe you will see a substantial change.
I paid twice the price at local vet supplies until I found the internet source.
Hip displaysia remedy May 30, 2008
Safety Pen (Mathis, Texas)
Our 6 year old Lab mix was recently diagnosed with hip displaysia by the vet. He recommed that we try a glucosomine/conchrotin supplement before considering surgery. Our dog would some times not be able to get up and could barely walk, but with noticable pain. We have been using Synovi G4 granules for about 2-3 months now and the dog has not had any recurring incidents. We also started giving it to our 4 year old registered Lab as a precautionary method. We would highly recommend this product.

Synovi G3 granules for dogs April 3, 2008
Scott Cyr (Canterbury, CT USA)
I am very pleased with Synovi. It saved my dog from getting surgery. She is a two year old Bloodhound that pulled a tendon in her knee and could not walk. My vet recommended Synovi before we tried surgery and she has recovered beautifully. It has been about two years since her injury and you can't even tell that anything ever happened to her. I use it as preventative maintanance for my other dogs now.
 So far, so good. April 1, 2008
N. Paul (Sunrise, Florida)
The dogs don't really seem to mind this supplement, it comes in a nice little bucket with a scooper, and it looks like coffee granules.They eat everything in their bowl. It's kinda hard to tell if it's working,but they are active and hopefully they will continue to be that way.
