Excellent results, a must for all dog owners that care! Highly satisfied!
I became a first time, extremely novice, dog owner when I rescued my loving fur baby running down the road on a stormy Friday night. As such, it's been a learn as you go science project for me, keeping him healthy and me from going broke with vet bills. I wasn't aware of anal scent glands or the importance of proper poop geometry or consistency in keeping them expressed. As long as it wasn't diarrhea, I did nothing to his diet and as a long as I can remember, it was watery, soft, thin and hard to bag up with poop bag. I knew the groomer did something to his butt, but didn't know what it was for. That all changed one day about 2 months ago when Yahtzee did a dive bomb scoot on me. When I checked his rear there was a small paper cut like there, so I applied antibiotic ointment and moved on. When reappling, that evening, I just touched the area lightly and out came a small amount of green and yellow puss. Trip to the vet and, you know it, infected anal scent gland. Vet tried to express it in the other room, no go. The wailing from my boy broke my heart. Vet kept him for the afternoon but, couldn't get them expressed with pup under tranquilizers. He told me it's not unusual in small dogs and that it would probably an ongoing problem. Then, gave me antibiotics and suggested adding pumpkin to his diet and other high fiber food to cause pooping to naturally do the expressing. That said, whew sorry for the long winded set up, I had to take on this project and researched the condition on the web. Everything led me to pumpkin in the diet and one site suggested something called silicea 6x. Amazon research of reviews led me to a clear choice based on reviews - GLANDEX! I immediately placed an order and started him on half a chew daily per the product instruction. AMAZING RESULTS! After about 3 weeks on the product, my boys poop started to take shape and color as it was supposed to look per Internet pictures, but still not quite like the pictures said. Well, with each passing day it got better and better. Now, 5 weeks in, I am so happy to say it's really great poop. Warm, segmented, brownish and picks up firm, moist, warm and all in one piece! I am so happy I could poop! So, THANK YOU GLANDEX, you've made a dog and his owner very happy and grateful! I made some other changes to his diet and exercise, but as far as this science project goes, I have to honestly and thankfully say that GLANDEX was the solution for me! The seller, Vetnique Labs, is commended for this product, fast shipping and helpful follow up emails on the product! I highly recommend you use this product BEFORE your pet goes through the suffering that mine did. I can't say enough how great I feel this product is! It's helped me sleep better, feel better and how thankful I am! Footnotes for other novices.... 1. At first my Yahtzee wouldn't take the GLANDEX as a stand alone treat. I just sandwiched it inside another treat, now he loves his GLANDEX as a reward. Be persistent. 2. He woofed down the raw pumpkin at first. But then, about a week in of two tablespoons a day, he turned his nose up at it, period. I then recalled that he'd vomited orange / yellow that morning and highly suspect it was the pumpkin not being fully digestible. GLANDEX to the rescue! No such problem with the product and it contains pumpkin extracts and other great nutrients and probiotics, as well! 3. Of course, I had to try the Silicea 6x suggestion, and while I'm sure it may have helped the dogs of those who so highly suggested it, it was a huge disaster for me. Day 3, raspberry jelly poop and an immediate trip to the vet - $165 dollars worth of stool and blood work said he was ok and thank God above no permanent damage and no more raspberry jelly poop after I stopped. Something about adding the sand like powder, when crushed as directed, substance to his drinking water raised a yellow flag in my mind, but the product seemed very highly reviewed and suggested for the condition. GLANDEX is soft, moist and easy to ingest in comparison. THANKS GLANDEX! AMAZING WHAT A LITTLE CHEW CAN DO!
