We were so glad to hear from Kathryn about her adorable American Staffordshire Terrier, Jaxon, who had severe hip dysplasia. There are so many times we hear stories like Jaxon's. Some veterinarians may want their mums or dads to consider euthanasia for their pet because of the cost or effort involved in making them better. Thankfully, Jaxon's mom walked away and took things into her own hands and researched how to make her dog better with diet and exercise. Now, Jaxon's hip dysplasia is under control with the help of Glyde® Mobility Chews. We are so pleased Jaxon is still here, and is proudly a #GlydeDog! Here is their story!
"Jaxon is a 10 month old American Staffordshire Terrier mix. He has been on Glyde for 2 months and I already see a big difference. I noticed him limping when he was about 6 months old. After 3 vet visits, he was finally X-rayed and diagnosed with very severe hip dysplasia. It is so severe, the vet even suggested euthanizing him. I opted out of that and decided to try a top quality diet and supplements. The vet recommended glucosamine and chondroitin (which I already knew about), but a very knowledgeable friend of mine suggested Green Lipped Mussel. I searched Google and found your product, Glyde, that has all 3 ingredients in it. His limping is much less profound since we started Glyde. He will pick up one foot when standing still, but loves to run and play and has no problem keeping up with my other dog. Unless you see him standing still (which does not happen often) you would never know there is anything severely wrong with him. I definitely attribute this to your product."
