Today I have invited my sister Katie to my blog for an interview. A while back I was contacted by NuVet® and asked if I would be interested in reviewing their product NuVet Plus®. Bailie and I haven’t been taking a joint supplement, but we have thought about it. Normally, we are focused on Katie who is suffering from Osteoarthritis. I emailed the company and let them know I would be interested in trying NuVet Plus® and also let them know about Katie and her arthritis issues as I saw while reading through their website they had supplements for arthritis. NuVet was very helpful in offering information on their program and also sent along their newest product NuJoint Double-Strength (DS) for Katie.
Emma: Katie, thank you for agreeing to come on my blog to talk about your arthritis issues and how NuVet products have worked for you. I will make sure you get an extra snack for your trouble! Things with your front left leg sure took a turn for the worse late last October, didn’t they?
Katie: Yes, I was in pretty sad shape. I have tried so many supplements and drugs and nothing has really worked. The last supplements were awesome but after only a few months, they stopped working. As some people said to Mom, I was in the worst shape I have ever been in. I did not want to walk much at all, heavens, I could barely get up! The cold winter was not to blame as my flare up started prior to our Florida trip and you may recall I didn’t even want to walk much in Florida. Here at home I did not even go into the backyard for a couple months, I just stayed on the deck. My front leg was so painful to walk on.
Emma: Tell me how this NuJoint DS works for you. Bailie and I are taking the NuVet Plus® daily but we haven’t noticed a difference and probably won’t since we are young and healthy. We will continue taking them to stay healthy, though. You are taking the NuVet® and NuJoint DS. That is four wafers a day for your weight, are they easy to take?
Katie: These wafers are so tasty – chicken flavor! You know me, I don’t take anything that may be medicine, but I could eat the whole bottle they are so good! I need four wafers a day, one NuVet Plus® and three NuJoint DS. Mom bought this handy dandy pill box thing so we don’t forget and they are all sorted for me. It has really been amazing taking these all natural supplements. What I really like is that they repair damage, and don’t just cover up pain! Within just two weeks I wanted to go walking with you and Bailie again and it was still below zero outside. I started to venture into the snow in the backyard, and now after about seven weeks, I am racing and playing. I am not a puppy, so if I do a lot one day, I rest up the next, but I am able to enjoy myself and my limp isn’t very bad at all!
Emma: So are you pleased with NuJoint DS, has it helped you? Would you recommend it for other dogs?
Katie: I would definitely recommend NuVet® products! You know as you get older, when you fix one problem another crops up. When my arthritis was so bad, I stopped dragging my back left paw because of the way I had to limp around. Now, I am not limping much, but I have started dragging my back paw again. Mom and I agree, that the dragging problem is no where near as bad as the pain and limping I had for several months. Right now I feel like these products are a miracle for me! I am hoping that if I continue taking the NuVet Plus® and NuJoint DS my rear joints may feel better and the dragging may lessen. I had Mom place an order for more wafers so I can continue my joint repair.
Emma: Would you tell me a bit about NuVet®?
Katie: NuVet Labs® has spent over eight years to create a product designed to attack the causes of disease instead of just covering up the symptoms. They put together a team of top scientific, medical and pet industry professionals to find real solutions to an ever growing pet health dilemma. NuVet® products are made in a FDA registered laboratory with natural, human-grade ingredients specially compounded to deliver the most effective nutritional health benefits. Utilizing the latest advances in medical and nutritional science, they apply state of the art manufacturing technologies to help maintain a standard of product quality and integrity that is virtually unheard of in the pet industry. The NuVet Plus® supplement focuses on the root cause of illness and disease while simultaneously boosting a pet’s immune system and overall health. For dogs suffering from joint pain due to osteoarthritis or hip dysplasia, NuJoint DS helps improve mobility by lubricating joints, rebuilding cartilage, accelerating the healing process and reducing pain quickly. NuJoint DS has increased amounts of the active ingredients MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane), Glucosamine, and Chondroitin. NuJoint DS also includes Vitamin C (Ester-C®) which is required for the synthesis of collagen (a component of joint cartilage), and it can also reduce free radical damage to cartilage.
Emma: Mom put together a short video showing you before and after the NuVet® supplements. Please tell my friends a bit about what they should look for before they watch? The end of the video is where the Monday mischief comes in. You are having quite the time with Bailie which makes us all so happy to see!
Katie: In the first short clip, you see how I struggle to walk. Mom is almost pulling me. My front right leg is very stiff, I am almost walking sideways pulling myself along and I look really sad. In the second part of the video I am walking at a good pace for being on snow with just a slight limp on my front left leg. I have a frontal and side view. The last part of the film is the best where I am in the snow wrestling, jumping and running with little Bailie. You can see how much better I really feel! Don’t count this Kuvasz with arthritis out, I am still good for some mischief with the puppy!
Emma: I hope this short interview and review may help out some of my furry friends that have joint pain and/or issues. NuVet® also has products for kitties in case you are a cat reading this. We were amazed at the transformation Katie has had in such a short time and hope it continues. Katie and I both say it is definitely worth trying, and even for younger healthy dogs like Bailie and I we feel it is important to take a supplement to stay healthy in the future. NuVet® offers a sixty day, 100% satisfaction guarantee. If after trying the product you are not satisfied for any reason, they refund your money to you! Thank you NuVet® for bringing your wonderful product to my attention for me and my sisters to try. Our whole family is very grateful!

Hi Y’all!
Great interview! I don’t need or want to take any more pills, but I might consider something like that if it is THAT yummy!
Y’all come by now,
Hawk aka BrownDog
They are all natural and so yummy. My sisters and I sometimes fight over them when Mom is passing them out.
Great video, interview and review! So glad Katie is feeling better and hope that improvement continues!
Thank you. We hope it continues as well as she was pretty bad last fall.
Great interview and we too hope Katie is feeling better and things will improve. Have a marvellous Monday.
Best wishes Molly
Thank you. We hope she keeps feeling like walking and playing with us too.
Thanks for the great review. Glad you found something to help Katie. 🙂
For now it is really working and we so love to eat those wafers!
So happy that Katie is feeling better!
We are too. It is so sad when she just lies around feeling bad and can’t join us for fun stuff.
Great post Emma! We sure are glad Katie is feeling better!
Thank you! These supplements are a miracle for Katie right now, so it is easy to write when we are so happy.
What a great interview and review! Thanks for sharing more about this product, I’m always interested in learning about arthritis meds!
They are great and the company is really nice to work with as well.
Glad Katie’s feeling better. Eko’s a large breed pup too, so arthritis and joint issues as he ages are definitely concerns of mine. Glad to see there are products that can both prevent and treat some of these painful conditions.
We think it is so nice that the supplements repair and not just mask a problem.
Emma, thanks for the thorough interview. We give Maggie supplements for her arthritis, but we might give these a try too since they did so well for Katie. It’s sure great to see her romping in the snow with Bailie.
Honestly, we were not real optimistic because she was really bad and nothing was helping, but in two weeks we saw a major improvement. We highly recommend giving them a try.
I’m so glad that is working for Katie. I’m sure she feels much happier. They contacted us too, but Roxy can’t take anything that is shell fish based. So we are still on the hunt for a product for her.
Oh my, we are lucky none of us have any food issues to worry about.
Emma, you hit all of the great points in your interview. I wish Mom had known about NuVet with my best friend Tucker. He had a hard time getting around for a few months. It is hard when I wanted to play and he couldn’t. : ( Those meds may have helped him feel better. Katie looks like she is feeling much better.
Thanks Bentley. Keep these in mind, even the daily supplements for yourself. It is nice that they work, but from my dog point of view, the best is that they taste so good!
I’m so glad that Katie is doing well on this. I saw the review that Sugar did and now yours and I’m thinking that Boomer and Dottie might need to give it a try once they are out of their other brand. It sounds like it’s a really good product!
Sugar reviewed a different variety from what we reviewed. They have a lot of different supplements depending on what your needs are and they are also very helpful on the phone if you call. I would definitely try them and you can get a refund within 60 days if they don’t work.
Really good info! We’re testing different joint supplements with Moses, so based on Katie’s success we might have to give this one a shot!
We highly recommend these. Mom was seriously wondering if Katie would make it through the winter until she started with these!
Katie, I’m so glad you found NuVet and it works for you. I know specially for older dogs that arthritis is a painful problem. Many thanks for a great review, Emma is a fabulous interviewer, good job, girls! Have a wonderful monday :o)
Thank you! Poor Katie is such a good natured dog that loves walking and running around, but she could not do that anymore, so we are really thankful she is feeling so much better.
Emma – looks to me like you’ve just found yourself a little “gig” on the side. Excellent interview.
Thanks, I enjoy interviewing every now and then.
Emma, great interview, and continued success and good health to Katie. The mom wants to know if they make it for humans! XOXO Sparkle the PBGV
My Mom said this morning she wished she could take what Bailie and I are taking!
The Mom needs the heavy duty stuff Katie takes! XOXO Sparkle the PBGV
My mom’s arms could use it from walking all of us and getting pulled at wabbit and squirrel sightings.
This is really wonderful news, Katie. I have always used joint supplements as a preventive for my dogs so I have never really seen the good they do in action. It’s true there is no fountain of youth miracle pill, but any little bit of relief matters!
She is not a puppy, but she is at least able to have some fun doing things she likes again. We are thankful!
Thank you for sharing that interesting interview.
Hopefully we can help other dogs out there with my interview.
Great review and interview etc… Very interesting!!!!
ღ husky hugz ღ frum our pack at Love is being owned by a husky!
Thank you, I enjoy a good interview now and then.
We’re saving this link for the future. Vlad (2) & Barkly (3) are young still, and we’re giving them only glucosamine sulfate for humans. We’re trying to keep their joints at top condition in hopes that it will keep them from having problems when they’re older. If either develop problems in the future though, we want to pick a supplement that someone else has proven to work. Thank you for this interview!
Bailie is 9 months and I am 7 yrs, but we are taking the daily supplements just to stay healthy.
That’s a good review Katie. I’m glad the supplements are helping. Kelly and Ike don’t take any supplements. Luckily, Kelly is a very spry 13 year old! So far Ike is doing well too.
Katie has had arthritis problems for a while now. Bailie and I hope to never have them as it is really sad to see her struggle but now she is feeling much better.
You did a great job Katie and I am very happy to hear those things are helping you!
We are too!
Your gait does look much better in the 2nd part of the video Katie. Sounds like a great product! Shiner had also been limping on her front left leg, but has been taking some supplements and I haven’t seen it since.
Katie has tried a bunch of supplements but only one worked until now, but it did not work for long. We are really pleased with these right now.
Emma, it is so wonderful to see Katie doing so well. When I watched her walking in the beginning of the video, that is exactly how Sheba walks if she has a flare up of her arthritis. So far she is still doing very well on her current supplement, but if it ever stops working, this will be the first one we try!
It is just so sad to see her having so much trouble as she loves walking, but now she is doing so much better, we are all thrilled.
Aww. I enjoyed the video of Katie. I’m so glad she’s found something that has helped her feel better. What a cute interview! My dog is 8 and has stiff joints at times. I need to look into something for him too.
This stuff is really amazing. We never thought she would get to the point she is at today ever again and since the wafers are so tasty it is simple to give them out.
Great interview! That looks like a great product. I’m glad your Katie is feeling better. 🙂
Good to connect with you again; I wrote Raising Rama and have been gone for a bit but just began a new blogging journey with Walks With Rama. Found you on the MPBH.
It gets hard remembering everyone as so many friends have taken breaks or quit altogether the past months. Glad you are back!
Hi Emma, it’s Dash, your doodle friend in Colorado. I love this news about Katie. I have some lab cousins who have arthritis so we sent your blog to their mom. Good news, we are still walking! We are all in such good moods here. Hooray! Keep on blogging and sharing such good information, Emma!
Maybe this will help your lab cousins. We are so happy with Katie feeling better these days, it is wonderful! Keep on walking…one paw in front of the other! Have a pawsome day!
Emma this has to be one of the best product reviews I have seen! Love the infomerrcial / interview format, its hysterical yet very informative! Good job! Love Dolly
Thank you. We like to keep our mood light and fun even when I have serious stuff to bark about.
You did a magnificent job on this review, Emma! Makes me want to get out there and try it.
Bailie and I are on the supplements to maintain health, which I am guessing is what you would need. All the mud baths should also help you stay healthy!
That was a excellent interview and glad you all are doing so well on it. I never heard of the product so thank you for sharing. There are so many products out there you just don’t know which ones are good or not so nice to hear from someone who is trying them out.
We have tried so many with no changes in Katie, so this really makes us happy. We had not heard of it either. The fact that it repairs joints and doesn’t just cover up pain is important we feel.
Oh, Katie, we are so so happy you are feeling like a puppy again without so much pain! That was beautiful to see!
Thank you. We love to see her getting her prancing paws on too!
You guys do the best reviews and we are so pleased Katie that the tablets help you 🙂 xxoxxx
Mollie and Alfie
Thank you. It is easy to review a product you really are happy with!
Oh Katie, I’m so happy you found something that helps you. Great review!
We are really happy about her improvement too.
It’s lovely to see Katie looking so much better, she was really struggling in the first clip.
She is doing much better, we hope it keeps going.
Thats great
