Zuke’s Hip Action, Hip And Joint Support, Soft And Chewy Natural Dog Treats , Peanut Butter And Oats Recipe - 16.0 OZ Bag

My GSD lives them; I top her food with one every morning and evening, then she might get one in between. The bag lasts a while; I buy one probably one every two weeks, but that’s not bad as that’s the only treat she gets. They’re about 1 square inch big, so you can break them up for training too. Overall a really good value - she is overall healthier eating these as treats!

My two little rescue Maltese are Zuke’s fans and when I say the name, they react the same as they do to the word ‘treat’.My older Maltese is estimated to be about 7 years old and she does not like any of the glucosamine supplements. I was so happy to discover these Hip Action treats which she loves. My younger rescue is only a year old but she suffered a broken leg at some point that has healed so badly, with muscles and scar tissue surrounding the joints, that surgery is not recommended. Arthritis is expected to be a problem for her as she ages which some prophylactic glucosamine and other supplements may help to minimize.Although there is not a lot of glucosamine and chondroitin in these treats, when combined with the other ingredients, I feel as though I am giving them a wholesome and beneficial treat. The back of the package gives the formula: weight in pounds x 0.023 = treats per day. The large treats are thick and moist and very easy to break into smaller pieces.Zuke’s treats are made in the USA and my dogs are fans.

My dog loves these. I have been using these for over 7 years. Large Chocolate lab. He likes the taste and you can break them into smaller bits and use them for rewards for training

Product arrived on time and in excellent condition.

I have been using Zukes for my Shihkingnese Dary for about a year. She was having difficult with her rear hind quarter.She would often skip on her rear right leg. I saw this product at a local pet boutique, and I decided to give it a try.After about a month of use, I noticed that Darby was no longer skipping. However, when I was not consistant with its use she began to skip again.She likes the flavor and considers it a treat. When I forget, she immediately reminds me that her treat is in the bed side table. When I used the product regularly, Darby did not skip.This package is much larger than the one I purchased in the boutique. It is also much more cost effective.I ordered this particular order for my Dad's 12 year old pit, Angel, because he was worried about her mobility issues.I thought if it worked for Darby, surely it would also work for Angel.

We rescued a then 8 wk old lab-pit mix puppy whom we noticed to limp a little, especially after lying down but was fine was he got going and never seemed to be in any discomfort. As of 3 weeks ago his limping worsened & also happened when just simply walking. I finally took him to his vet where she determined after a combination of palpation, and some range of motion test that it was/is his right hip or knee or both. I'm concerned with the possibility of early hip dysplasia given his breed and the symptoms at such a young age. The vet opted to hold off on X-rays (it would cost $238) and treat as a sprain/strain and instead, prescribed him a low dose of Rimadyl (NSAID- 75 mg for his 46-lb self, normal dose is 2 mg/lb of body weight) and said to limit walks to 5-10 minutes tops 3 times a day and absolutely NO dog park or parks for 2 weeks. It seemed to help him some and there was a day or 2 last week I had to increase his dose to the full 90 mg and as recommended by his vet given him Benadryl as needed to keep him mellow & less active.Yesterday, Friday, exactly after 1 week of Zuke's Hip Action 2 X a day, he was so full of energy again, was wanting to run and jump around and insisting on longer walks. It's day 2 of him being completely limp-free and I am so glad to see him almost back to his usual puppy self. I still am a bit leery that this relief could be a fluke or short-term & still plan on keeping him on short walks until our upcoming 2-week appointment this Wednesday. I'm only giving this product 4 stars because I am not sure if all he needed was time and rest for him to heal or that this product finally kicked in once it got through his system after 1 week of use. Unlike what some reviewers said, these treats are very moist and soft, and most of all must be very palatable and made of REALLY GOOD stuff here in the US. He loves the taste, I love the price and efficacy- win win over here! I will continue to order these through Amazon, especially, after pricing them at our local pet stores and finding out they charge almost twice as much for the 1-lb bag. This product's a winner!

UPDATE: Amazon customer service was very helpful and prompt in remedying the issue. Five stars for Amazon!Neither of my dogs will eat this product, even with coaxing and they are not usually picky about food or treats. I have purchased this product several times previously and they have always gobbled them up enthusiastically. I'm not sure if the processing or ingredients have been changed, but something is not the same. Unfortunately I will need to find something else. At the cost of this product, this is especially disappointing. I was willing to splurge for my dogs, and was I was happy to support a product made in the USA out of what I thought to be high quality ingredients.

Every time I open a bag of these, my dog gets excited. Knowing that the first week I started giving her one of these a day her hip condition improved. Where it was so bad, I was counting my days with my 10 year old girl. Now she is approaching 11 and I don't see an end in sight. I had to help her up the 4 steps to the house with a towel. Since starting these, I don't even keep the towel out anymore. She gets up and down better too. I have turned a couple of friends on to these and they too have had great results. Now even better...a 1 pound bag at half (yes, HALF) of what I was paying and prime shipping to my front door. Win and win. Now I'm sending my friends to purchase this as I am. Maybe my baby girl will get an extra treat now and then since my cost is lower and even my vet uses these treats.
