I have an older dog that is "slowing down" - can K-9 REJUVENATOR perk him up?
K-9 REJUVENATOR is the optimum choice for older dogs because it provides such a wide spectrum of nutritional support. Besides containing some of the most potent agents known for maintaining and rebuilding cartilage and connective tissue for joint health, they also relieve joint and muscle pain, prevent muscular atrophy and slow deteriorating effects of aging, boost energy, aid renal function and carbohydrate metabolism, help improve circulation and cardiovascular response. Joint problems generally get worse with time. The sooner K-9 REJUVENATOR is started the better chance your dog has to respond and return to normal activity.

I give my dog glucosamine - why is K-9 REJUVENATOR better?
Velcosamine is a better choice because it not only supplies high levels of glucosamine, it also supplies chondroitin which inhibits harmful enzymes that break down cartilage and attracts beneficial fluid into joints to act as a cushion and nourish the joint itself. Glucosamine and chondroitin are key nutrients that work together to keep joints healthy and in optimum condition. K-9 REJUVENATOR also provides your dog with nutrients to reduce inflammation, increase energy, improve your dog’s stamina, prevent muscular atrophy and improve circulation. Don’t limit your dog to just a glucosamine supplement when he can get so much more benefits from K-9 REJUVENATOR.

My dog isn't old - Why should I give him K-9 REJUVENATOR?
Because it is a great "all around tonic" and preventative measure for dogs of any age and is good for him! Even at younger ages some dogs experience joint health problems which effect their flexibility, mobility and quality of life. As your dog ages its joints, ligaments, tendons and joint fluids wear and age too. Depending on their level of exercise, genetic makeup and diet some dogs can remain very healthy until their last days and some get stiff and immobile very early in life. K-9 REJUVENATOR supports joint health as well providing nutrients for your dogs cardiovascular, metabolic, renal and circulatory systems, increased energy and stamina, healthy skin, teeth and muscles.

How does K-9 REJUVENATOR work?
K-9 REJUVENATOR is the optimum choice as a supplement for your dog because it provides a wide spectrum of nutritional support for many conditions effecting your dog’s health and well being. Made from velvet antler it naturally contains some of the most potent agents known for maintaining and rebuilding cartilage and reducing inflammation in addition to supporting your dogs metabolic, circulatory, and renal systems. Glucosamine and chondroitin, key nutrients that work together to strengthen, maintain and rebuild joints often decrease with age and should be supplemented in your dog’s diet. IGF-1 promotes muscle development, prevents muscular atrophy and slows the deteriorating effects of aging. Collagen is the main structural protein that binds joints together and builds cartilage. Lipids boost energy, calcium builds strong bones and teeth, selenium helps fight infections and protects blood cells, the heart, liver and lungs. Magnesium helps cells store and release energy and maintains healthy levels of cellular and plasma electrolytes. Potassium aids in the transmission of nerve impulses, contraction of muscles, boosts renal function and carbohydrate metabolism. Omega 3, Omega 6 and other essential amino acids improves cardiovascular response and aids circulation.

Are there any side effects or will K-9 REJUVENATOR hurt my dog?
Velcosamine K-9 REJUVENATOR is all natural and is considered by many to be safer for use than most conventional drugs. Many commonly prescribed drugs used to treat arthritis in dogs actually contribute to joint degeneration and breakdown by preventing the growth of collagen in joints. These drugs can also produce serious side effects such as deterioration of the gastrointestinal tract lining and liver and kidney damage. Dogs given EVA in clinical trials have not demonstrated any adverse side effects.

What is VELCOSAMINE and Elk Velvet Antler (EVA)?
K-9 REJUVENATOR is made from VELCOSAMINE which is 100% Elk Velvet Antler (EVA). Velcosamine is all natural made from the dried inner core of an elk’s antler that is harvested when the bull is "in velvet". Velvet antlers are harvested without harm to the bull and are grown back each year. All velvet used in K-9 REJUVENATOR is harvested from USDA certified herds and taken at the exact stage where it contains the highest level of nutritional properties.
Elk are the only animal that can reverse the effects of osteoarthritis! Elk bulls actually go through osteoarthritis every year when they grow their antlers, depleting calcium and other nutrients from their long bones to build antler and replenishing it after the antler hardens. Research studies show that the use of Velvet Antler is beneficial to relieve the symptoms of osteoarthritis. Velvet Antler displayed the ability to significantly reduce inflammation, influence metabolism, support immune function, protect damaged tissues, stimulate blood, liver and kidney function and provide beneficial effects in cardiovascular health, growth and strength enhancement.

How much K-9 REJUVENATOR should I give my dog?
K-9 REJUVENATOR works more gradually than prescription drugs. Some dogs show dramatic results in as little as 48 hours, other dogs will gradually improve over a period of 4-6 weeks. We recommend a dosage of 20 mg/lb. of body weight daily for the initial 2 week period, then reduce to 10 mg/lb. of body weight per day for maintenance:
A small dog (up to 25 lbs.) would take 2 capsules per day for the first two weeks, then reduce to 1 a day.
A medium dog (up to 50 lbs.) would take 4 capsules initially, then drop to 2 a day.
A large dog (up to 75 lbs.) would take 6 capsules initially, then drop to 3 a day.
If your dog is responding well you might want to experiment with reducing the dosage further, many large dogs with early joint problems can maintain perfectly well on 1 capsule a day. Every dog’s needs are different. Watch your dogs movement and attitude, if they are active, happy and comfortable decrease the number given per day and see what happens. If you dog becomes listless, stiff and cranky raise the dosage until they are comfortable again.

Can I use K-9 REJUVENATOR with prescription drugs such as Rimedyl?
Veterinarians we have surveyed find no conflict or danger of using EVA in conjunction with Rimadyl or other NSAIDS. Many dog owners have been able to decrease the dosage and frequency, and in some cases eliminate the use of NSAIDS when using K-9 REJUVENATOR.
