Potter is a (almost) 4 year old collie and was diagnosed with hip discomfort in both hips with secondary joint stiffness at just 14 months old. The vet recommended Seraquin and Metacam on bad days.

He coped quite well but after long, cold or wet walks would seize up and suddenly yelp in discomfort when he tried to move. This was especially noticeable if we had been walking with other dogs, as the walk was more boisterous.

Millie: Labrador x Springer with Elbow Discomfort

“My lovely chocolate lab x springer puppy, Millie, was starting to struggle whenever she rested after a big walk.

After the usual trips to the vet, along with x-rays and scans, it was confirmed she had a double elbow discomfort.

Keeping her quiet in the house was a challenge enough but on walks was heartbreaking!

We were at a game fair and saw the stall for Mobile Bones (joint supplement) – and thank goodness we stopped!

Black Labrador, Saska: Elbow

I have been adding Mobile Bones to Saska’s food for about a month now.
She has discomfort in her elbow and has been walking stiffly for 4-5 months now.

From watching her move it is clear that Mobile Bones was the right choice for a mobility aid, also I gave her marrow bone on Sunday and she always gets stomach upsets after having one, but for some reason since taking Mobiles Bones she has not had any.

Monty: Elbow discomfort

Since a small puppy Monty has had a limp in his front legs. Vets had said that he would always be like this, so we considered having him put to sleep to put him out of his ongoing misery. READ ON…

Monty was on a strong product from the vets after having several X-rays.
At this time he was not even a year old, and still growing.

We purchased Monty so that he could be a house dog that we could take for walks, but he was turning into a dog that we no longer wanted.
We saw Mobile Bones advertised, so we gave it a go.

Cookie: Mobility caused by Hip Discomfort

“After discovering that our labrador puppy, Cookie, had Hip Discomfort our vet told us that she may have to have a hip replacement at a young age and be kept on restricted exercise.

We were asked to try Mobile Bones and after just a few days were very pleased that we did. Cookie now enjoys a great quality of life, with as much exercise as she likes.” Ian Blaskey
