We
are the only Dog knee brace site who offers advice and tips on
holistic and homeopathic supplements. We believe in natural healing. We use
and recommend the following products. We do not get paid from any of
these companies, who do not even know we recommend their products. We are not
part of any affiliate program. We have included links for your convenience, but
feel free to look into other companies who sell the same products. As with all
the content of this website, it is not to be construed as medical advice in any
form. If you seek medical advice, consult with a veterinarian.
In addition to wearing a Dog Knee Brace for a K9 torn knee ligament, Pasha is
given a daily “cocktail” of high quality supplements
whichsupport healing, accelerate tissue repair, and help alleviate pain and
inflammation in her injured knee. We use a mix of supplements,
including Nupro Silver for Dogs with CCL or ACL Injuries. Nupro Silver is a fabulous, high quality nutritional
complex supplement which contains glucosamine, kelp, shark cartilage, MSM and other
ingredients which can help your Dog recover from a ligament injury along with a
Dog stifle brace, exercise, and conservative management.
You can get Nupro Silver online.
Ever since Pasha suffered a complete rupture of the Cranial Cruciate Ligament (CCL)
in her left hind leg in 2013, part of her recovery has included a special, yet
simple, daily “bone juice” which we give our 72 lb. Golden. She gets
this once every AM and then the rest of her food throughout the day. (She fully
recovered from her complete rupture over 14 months ago and no longer wears her
Posh Dog Knee Brace).
Wearing a Dog knee brace for a canine CCL injury is just one part of the
holistic approach and solution for a Dog ACL knee injury. Here is our recipe
which we feed our 62 lb. girl daily:
We
buy the Nupro Silver from www.USBones.com. It comes in various
sizes. This outstanding nutritional supplement for joint and connective tissue
health contains glucosamine, sea kelp, shark cartilage and other beneficial
ingredients!
When combining Nupro Silver with Glyco-Flex 3, be sure not to exceed the
ingredients, as there is ingredient redundancy in these products.
The Alaskan wild salmon oil offers a high concentration of Omega-3 essential
fatty acids and in more effective concentrations and higher quality than
traditional fish oil.
Shop around for the spirulina, green lipped mussel, and tumeric to get the best
pricing.
Some credible websites recommend UP TO 500 MG of glucosamine per 25 pounds of
body weight. It may be a good idea to gradually build up to the appropriate
dosage over a few weeks. Please read the entire article, particularly the
section about contraindications. BTW this site has lots of truthful and
outstanding articles about Dog Health – a must read!
We give our Golden baby 4 oz of DECAF green tea in her bone juice, since it is
so beneficial for preventing cancer and overall health, BUT it MUST be
decaf – caffeine can be very dangerous for Dogs! BTW check back soon
for tips on avoiding and treating cancer in Dogs.
Remember that helping a Dog recover from a partial or complete rupture of the
ACL involves more than just a well-built custom Dog knee brace or Dog stifle
brace for a canine knee injury from Posh Dog Knee Brace, it also involves
nutritional supplements and conservative management! Look for our upcoming blog
about this.
Wishing your Dog a long, healthy and fulfilled life! Give your beautiful Dog a
BIG hug from all of us at PoshDogKneeBrace.com!
Update # 1: In addition to giving Pasha DECAF [caffeine
will harm Dogs!] green tea each day as an anti-cancer measure, we’ve also added
a daily capsule of medicinal mushrooms: Reishe, Maitake and
Shiitake mushrooms. Even though Pasha does not have cancer, given her age, we
are introducing herbs and other confirmed, safe, anti-cancer agents to her
daily routine.
We learned about this amazing mushroom mixture, used by Eastern (real) doctors
for many centuries, at AnimalWellnessMagazine.com, a fabulous magazine
that promotes REAL heath, and NOT big-pharma, 100% profit-based
“health” in Dogs! We use this brand of medicinal mushrooms: http://tinyurl.com/mfn7loa
Update # 2: Although she presents with no symptoms of cancer
or malignancies, and as apreventative measure, and after spending
>> hundreds << of hours researching confirmed alternative and
authentic treatments for cancer (many say cures), each day we give Pasha 6
crushed, raw, unpasteurized apricot kernels which we buy from ApricotPower.com These MUST be
unpasteurized seeds, since pasteurization removes most nutrients from any food.
Just search LongLivingPets.com to learn more, or search
“laetrile cures cancer”. Apricot seeds have a very high density of
naturally occurring laetrile.
Update #3: Now That Pasha is 13, she is no longer fond
of mixing a lot of the foregoing supplements in decaf green tea. We now give
her supplements wrapped (hidden) in fresh ground turkey “eggs,” i.e.
Packed into about 2 tsp. of ground turkey. For the supplements in powder form,
like the ground apricot seeds and Nupro Silver, we fill large gelatin
capsules and wrap those with ground turkey. You can buy 500 large gelcaps on
amazon for almost nothing.
