"Her way of life has changed and we could not be more thankful."
We rescued Kira from the pound when she was 6 weeks old. Kira grew to love playing fetch and would not stop even when she was so exhausted that she could not run anymore.
Kira started to show symptoms of arthritis when she was 6 years old. Within 3 years, Kira progressed to severe arthritis in both her front legs. She was on 3 different types of pain and anti-inflammatory medication prescribed by the vet and we also gave her 2 natural remedies (fish oil and turmeric). The medication alone, was costing around $5 per day and with everything Kira was taking, it was just keeping the arthritis at bay. She had good days, but mainly bad days. We were close to putting her down if she wasn’t going to get better as we didn’t want her to suffer.
I was scrolling through Facebook one day and come across an ad on Rose-Hip Vital. We watched a few videos and thought – there’s no harm in trying, what do we have to lose?
We have never been so amazed.
Within 3 weeks, Kira was able to move without limping. Her way of life has changed and we could not be more thankful. She has now been on Rose-Hip for 1 year and is loving playing fetch again.
Rose-Hip has changed our lives and we are so grateful to be able to spend more years with Kira.
