Here’s how Newton has improved as a #GlydeDog!  ![Newton the Doberman](https://blog.parnell.com/hs-fs/hubfs/companion/social/Karen%20Luna_Newton-469796-edited.jpg?width=300&name=Karen%20Luna_Newton-469796-edited.jpg) "Newton is a big boy! At a whopping 92 lbs., he's not your average size Doberman. At just 3 years of age, Newton began to have knee problems. His back legs would shake as he stood and he limped heavily. Like most Dobermans, Newton loves to run, hike, and play. However, with bad knees, Newton was suffering a lot. He was depressed, not eating and would mope around the house, then cry to be let outside. He was placed on anti-inflammatory medication and on a weight management diet. That did not seem to help enough as he was still limping and his back legs would shake. Our veterinarian told us about [Glyde™ Mobility Chews](https://store.parnell.com/products/glyde-chews) and we decided to try it. We wanted him to have the best life he could possibly have. Within a few days, we saw improvement. He wasn't shaking as much and he was able to stand for longer periods of time. Now with his daily dose of Glyde, Newton is back to his old self. He runs 2 miles a day, he chases the squirrels in our back yard and his back legs no longer shake when he stands. Newton is now a happy and healthy 4-year-old!  *- *Karen [![Glyde Can Work for Your Dog Too!](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/4000146/afa1784b-11f0-452a-8b84-fd89306310c3.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/4000146/afa1784b-11f0-452a-8b84-fd89306310c3)`` --- ### Also in the Parnell Paws Blog [![4 Ways to Keep Your Dogs Safe this Fourth of July](https://blog.parnell.com/hubfs/happy%204th%20from%20the%20dog.png)](https://blog.parnell.com/en-us/4-ways-to-keep-your-dogs-safe-this-fourth-of-july) [4 Ways to Keep Your Dogs Safe this Fourth of July](https://blog.parnell.com/en-us/4-ways-to-keep-your-dogs-safe-this-fourth-of-july) June 27, 2024 [Read More ](https://blog.parnell.com/en-us/4-ways-to-keep-your-dogs-safe-this-fourth-of-july) [![It's a Wrap: Our 2023 Highlights](https://blog.parnell.com/hubfs/its%20a%20wrap%20(1).png)](https://blog.parnell.com/en-us/its-a-wrap-our-2023-highlights) [It's a Wrap: Our 2023 Highlights](https://blog.parnell.com/en-us/its-a-wrap-our-2023-highlights) November 30, 2023 [Read More ](https://blog.parnell.com/en-us/its-a-wrap-our-2023-highlights) [![Top 5 Holiday Pet-Related Disasters to Avoid](https://blog.parnell.com/hubfs/Christmas%20time%20with%20the%20dog.png)](https://blog.parnell.com/en-us/top-5-holiday-pet-related-disasters-to-avoid) [Top 5 Holiday Pet-Related Disasters to Avoid](https://blog.parnell.com/en-us/top-5-holiday-pet-related-disasters-to-avoid) November 30, 2023 [Read More ](https://blog.parnell.com/en-us/top-5-holiday-pet-related-disasters-to-avoid) #### Share [![Share on facebook](https://7528309.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hub/7528309/hubfs/raw_assets/public/mV0_d-web-default-modules_hubspot/img/facebook-color.png?width=24&name=facebook-color.png) ](http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.parnell.com%2Fen-us%2Fnewtons-hind-legs%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dfacebook) [![Share on linkedin](https://7528302.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hub/7528302/hubfs/raw_assets/public/mV0_d-web-default-modules_hubspot/img/linkedin-color.png?width=24&name=linkedin-color.png) ](http://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.parnell.com%2Fen-us%2Fnewtons-hind-legs%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dlinkedin) [![Share on twitter](https://7528304.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hub/7528304/hubfs/raw_assets/public/mV0_d-web-default-modules_hubspot/img/twitter-color.png?width=24&name=twitter-color.png) ](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?original_referer=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.parnell.com%2Fen-us%2Fnewtons-hind-legs%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dtwitter&url=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.parnell.com%2Fen-us%2Fnewtons-hind-legs%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dtwitter&source=tweetbutton&text=) [![Share on email](https://7528311.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hub/7528311/hubfs/raw_assets/public/mV0_d-web-default-modules_hubspot/img/email-color.png?width=24&name=email-color.png) ](mailto:?subject=Check%20out%20https%3A%2F%2Fblog.parnell.com%2Fen-us%2Fnewtons-hind-legs%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Demail%20&body=Check%20out%20https%3A%2F%2Fblog.parnell.com%2Fen-us%2Fnewtons-hind-legs%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Demail) #### +MUST READ -
