Mmmmm, good to the last drop! Hi,
my name is Randy Lauscher from East Point, GA. This morning while
getting ready for work, my Corgi "Marty" got a hold of my empty
jar of Nupro, and proceeded to get his head stuck in the jar! I
couldn't get it off, so I went to the garage and got some wire cutters and
cut through the plastic. Attached is a picture of him I quickly took
with my digital camera. I couldn't help but laugh, he looked so
pitiful with that jar on his head! I thought you might find this
funny...I guess it's quite a testimony to your product! ;) Hi there, I met one of your representatives at the Atlantic City Pet Trade show and she gave me a Free sample of your Nupro - Joint supplement for Dogs. I love it so much that I wish to purchase the 5# or greater container of it. Please let me know if I should
or could order it directly from you or where I can get it. Thank you,
Nutri-Pet Hi Janis,
As we discussed, I've written up my experience with Nupro with my (now) ten year old Labrador that has hip dysplasia in both hips. She has a relatively severe case, based on x-rays that were done when she was almost one year of age. Sydney was rescued by a breeder (not her own breeder) when she was eight months old. I had just had to have another Lab put to sleep because of Irritable Bowel Syndrome, and my remaining Lab was in mourning, as was I. When I met Sydney, she was asymptomatic of any hip problems. She was a typical happy-go-lucky, tail-wagging girl! I am forever impressed by the sheer joy of living that Labs display. My veterinarian felt around her hips and mentioned that he thought an x-ray might be in order. Because I had just lost one dog, he was concerned about the potential health problems that this new dog might have. The bad news was that Sydney had canine hip dysplasia in both hips. We talked about what this might mean down the road. I was not in a position to afford the hugely expensive surgery, and at that time, there were no local vets that had the orthopedic know-how to do the surgery. (Dogs were sent downstate for the surgery - this involved two separate surgeries, one hip at a time.) So, the vet explained what I might anticipate: arthritis, lameness, spinal problems poor muscle development in the hind quarters, etc. I have always kept Sydney very trim as to not stress her hips further. She did very well and continued (suprisingly to all) to be asymptomatic until she was six years old. She had periods of lameness which seemed to self-correct. She began having difficulty lifting her head up and tended to always carry it in a lowered position. I began to notice that her upper body (chest) became very developed from carrying the brunt of her body weight, and she became somewhat pigeon-toed in her front feet as a result. Still, dogs being the stoic beings that they are, she carried on. Then one day, she would not attempt to go up the stairs. This was disturbing. While she wanted to be with me, she could not take the stairs. She made a few attempts over several days, but then yelped in pain. We went to the vet, and the vet said that the head position, the pain, etc., were all byproducts of the hip dysplasia - she now had a raging case of arthritis. She prescribed Cosequin DS and Rimadyl. I had some real concerns about the Rimadyl as we have all heard stories about the side effects on a dog's liver and life. This is when I began to really search for alternatives to help Sydney. I belong to a Vetmed list online, and I posted Sydney's situation. I received a variety of responses ranging from "The damage is done" to some interesting alternatives to help Sydney. Most of all, I did not want to see her in pain. This is when someone mentioned Nupro to me. I went to the Nupro web site, and read about the product. At that time, the Joint Support formula was not yet available. So, I ordered five pounds of Nupro for Sydney. In my research, while trying to find a solution for Sydney, I read over and over that it is important to get big, active dogs on glucosamine while they are pups. I decided that my other Lab would also be getting the Nupro, based on the terrific ingredients. I did not anticipate the incredible LOVE my dogs would have for Nupro! They lick their bowls totally clean and then some! (They get their Nupro in the a.m. feeding, and when I pull down the Nupro container, they all start to do the tap dance of Joy!) After one month, Sydney had her first blood work to be sure the Rimadyl was not having a negative impact on her liver, and all was well. With the Rimadyl, she was able to take stairs again, but very slowly. I noticed something else at this point , too. Sydney has always had seasonal allergies and would shed and itch and lick like crazy from May to November. I noticed that the licking had decreased a good deal (but hadn't figured out the Nupro link yet). Then, several people commented on how wonderful and shiny her coat was - then the light came on. I suppose because I see her every day, I did not see the subtle changes in her coat and appearance. But, there she was, not shedding like crazy, shiny and her coat no longer had that oily quality I had earlier observed. I decided to wean her slowly off the Rimadyl at this point. By the time two months had passed, Sydney was totally off of Rimadyl. She has never taken it again. . I started Sydney on the Nupro Joint Support as soon as it became available - and the difference has been significant. I also weaned her off of the CosequinDS. The response is very noticeable, moreso than anything I witnessed with the (very expensive) CosequinDS. The big difference is that Sydney now 'moves' again! Today, I am happy to report that Sydney is a very healthy ten years old! She just had a dental cleaning and total blood work up, and the vet said she is the picture of health. No more lameness, no more yelping, and she bounds up and down the stairs. She stopped playing with toys when the pain started years back, but in the past year or so, she has enjoyed stealing the ball from the other dogs and taking off She RUNS again. I have not seen her really take off in a run in years. It actually scares me to see her whizzing by; I'm afraid she'll hurt herself. But, as a friend reminded me, she is obviously not in pain if she chooses to run around. And, most important, she is having fun. All of my Labs now eat Nupro Joint Support (no bad hips with the others, but the benefits of this product are too good to pass up). I work with Lab Rescue, and we have put many of our new arrivals on Nupro. Emaciated dogs, dogs with skin conditions and dogs with orthopedic problems have all benefited from Nupro. Some of the foster homes even decided to put their own dogs on Nupro when they have seen the improvement in their foster rescue dogs. (All a dog needs to do is get a whiff of this stuff, and they insist on having some!) Another friend of mine has a schnauzer that had horrendous digestive problems, gas and bloating. The vet finally got desperate and recommended that the dog's gallbladder be removed, and this surgery was done. The dog showed no improvement and continued to suffer. My friend took my advice and began her schnauzer on Nupro. That was four years ago. The schnauzer is now a hale fifteen years old and shows no signs of digestive upsets, gas or bloating. However, my friend mentioned that when she was out of Nupro and her dog was not eating it for two weeks, the symptoms began to return. We have no doubt that removing corn, soy and wheat from her diet and adding Nupro was the key. In my house, we LOVE NUPRO! I have told many people about Nupro, and one common thread is this: once a pet owner begins to use it....they do not stop. The enthusiasm a dog displays when being fed Nupro tells the whole story! Dogs that would not eat or were very picky, attack their food when Nupro is in it. To me, it is some sort of magic. I do not totally understand how it works, but I know that it DOES work. I would never have a pet without feeding it Nupro. The benefits are huge. Thanks for the incredible product. Because of Nupro and the changes I have seen in all of my dogs, I have learned a good deal about nutrition. Anyone who loves their dog will love Nupro. For me, I am grateful to you folks. Because of Nupro, I have a ten year old Lab that no one thought would be ambulatory beyond seven years of age. Who would have thought that she would be running and playing and pain-free at ten? I don't believe we can ask more than that!!! Peggy Roesner
Hi Janis,
I heard about Nupro from a number of people. After hearing such
wonderful things about it, I decided to buy some and try it. It is
amazing!!! My 15 month old rottweiler had a shoulder injury.
He would heal, then start limping again, over and over. Now he has
no more problems at all, his coat is so soft and shiny, and he just loves
it! Thank you for making such an amazing product available!
Sincerely,
Anne & Bauer

Subject: Nupro
To whom it may
concern:
I called just over
a month ago and talked to a very nice lady who helped me with questions
on Nupro. I have 2 Shelties and one was having an allergic reaction to
something airborne and was itching and biting herself like crazy.
She was put on
prednisone and then I started them both on Nupro and in just month she
is over her problem and my other Shelties coat looks fuller and I
noticed today that I did not have as much hair to vacum up.
Usually it clings
to the bottom of the chairs in the dinning room and before vacuming
today I went to wipe them off and there was not hair there to wipe. I
think it must be the Nupro. I want to thank you for such a great
product. I am so glad that I found you and between phone calls and
talking to the lady at our local health food store our girls will stay
on Nupro.
Thanks, Susan

Dear Bruce Homer, 2-24-98 In December of 1997 I was visiting my sister-in-law Rita in Vista California. When I arrived I couldn't believe my eyes, her 18 year old Cocker Spaniel was still alive. I Not only was she still here, she looked so much better than she had in the past. Rita explained that she had heard about a wonderful product, Nupro, from her dog groomer that could help her dogs coat and skin. She put Cinnamon on it and with in three weeks she started to see improvement. I immediately asked where she had purchased Nupro and the next day went to get some for our dog. Our dog Shadow is a Blue Merle Sheltie and has had reoccurring problems with his skin and hair. Over the past ten years he has had hot spots, dry itchy scalp, and numerous infections that have cost us hundreds of dollars. His last infection left him almost hairless from the middle of his back to his tail. Our veterinarian put him on steroid drugs that caused other side affects. I have always felt that there must be a better way. So when Rita told me of her success story, and I read the can and saw all the wonderful ingredients I figured what did I have to loose by giving Nupro a chance. It has now been three months since Shadow has been on Nupro. Not only did all of his hair grow back but he is much more alert and has more energy and also seems to love the taste of Nupro. After I noticed a great improvement I cut back on the dosage as instructed on the can. About two weeks ago I noticed a small hot spot starting on his back, so I increased the dosage again and like a miracle the spot went away. I want to thank Nupro for making Shadow so much happier and for making our lives so much easier. No matter what dog I have in the future I will always use Nupro.!!Thanks Again, Barbara Taber, West Hiis, California
Thank you
for such a wonderful product. I have been purchasing Nupro Joint
Support for about 4-5 yrs now for my rottweilers. Nikki
is my 6-7 yr old spayed female rescue that we adopted from a shelter 5
1/2 yrs ago. We know nothing of her past but within a few
months of living with us she injured her shoulder while playing
basketball with my teen son. The vet wanted her on Rimadyl but
after doing research on that medicine, my husband and I opted not to
give it to her. After time didn't heal her and she was still
having joint pain after slow short walks, we found Nupro and purchased
the joint support. After a few short months she had no more
limping and now can run like a puppy , pain free.
My 3 yr
old spayed female rotti, Xena, also injured her elbow by slipping on ice
in our yard 2 yrs ago during our harsh New England weather. She
also plays pain free now.
Both
girls also have shiny black coats, no shedding except in spring and both
are blood donors with excellent results from all tests at the
pre-donation testing.
Again,
Thank you for a great product!

Hello!
My name is Kathleen Sanderson and I am the proud owner of two male
Rottweilers: Addison, 5 year old rescue, and Carter, 8 month old puppy. I
was originally told to try Nupro by Judy Marion at Nova Rottweiler Rescue,
but then was convinced by a number of members on Rotts N Nots yahoo group
(including Noel Gilbert and Jackie Carlson) to give it a shot.
I have now had both boys on the Joint Supplement for 6 weeks. There are a
number of things that I have noticed have improved! To begin with, their
coats are both so shiny and soft! Addison's coat feels like a fleece
blanket, seriously! I receive compliments constantly on both of them. I
have also noticed that they hardly shed now. I used to have to sweep my
wood floors in the house every day in order to not get hair balls in the
corners and under tables. But now I can easily go quite a few days, and
their hair does not come off in waves when I brush them!
They both also LOVE the taste, as I mix it with water to make the gravy.
And a number of my friends who have dogs that were very picky with their
food have found that adding the Nupro has finally made their dogs gobble
everything up! I also love the fact that it has so many vitamins,
minerals, amino acids etc!
But the most important reason why I started to add Nupro to both of my
dogs diet, was because of the glucosamine complex in the Supplement!
Addison tore his right ACL two months before he turned 3
years old. He then tore his left ACL a year later (had both surgeries on
the exact same day, one year apart!). In the past year I had also noticed
that he would start limping slightly on his right shoulder, and I was
just waiting for him to completely fall apart joints wise. I was giving
him glucosamine in a tablet form, but I wanted to do something more for
him, and I had heard so many wonderful things about Nupro helping with
achy joints and limping so I decided to give it a try. Since I have
started the Nupro Joint Supplement, he has completely stopped limping and
I just feel so much better about him. I am no longer half as worried.
So thank you very much! I even managed to convince my local doggie
boutique to carry Nupro products, so that I no longer have to order it
online.
Sincerely,
Kathleen Sanderson
Just
wanted to let you know how much I appreciate this supplement! Judy
Marion from NovaRotts Rescue told my email group about this supplement
and how wonderful it was and how we should all use it!
So, there were a lot of us on Rotts n Nots that decided to give
it a try and I am hooked! Ember,
my Rottie, was diagnosed with HD when she had her 1yr x-rays done.
She is moderately severe on one side and severe on the other.
She has just finished her first 5lb tub of Nupro Joint and she
looks wonderful. Her coat
is like patent leather and her teeth are pearly white.
She runs like a greyhound and jumps like a kangaroo.
She just had her 3rd birthday on April 15th
and you can see how happy she is! I
can’t thank you enough for making this product, it is the best! Candy

Subject: how Nupro has helped my rottie girl, Sable
I just wanted to take a moment to say 'thank you'. I ordered the
Nupro Joint Support for my 5 year old rottie girl, Sable, a few weeks ago.
I belong to a yahoo group and many there told me this is amazing.
Sable is a 5 yo rottie who sadly was kept indoors her whole life (never
saw the light of day). She is a big girl, at 100 pounds (down from
110 when we got her the day after this past Thanksgiving). Her back
end was very underdeveloped due to lack of excercise. She had been
having alot of problems getting up (very stiff) and sometimes when
up on the couch, when she shifted positions, she would yelp. Also,
she had been sleeping up in bed with us, but had not been able to get up
there for a while now (and would not allow you to help her, growled if you
touched her back end.) Also, we had gotten a new pup and she really
would growl and snap at him if he came near her, especially that back end.
I started her on the Nupro a little over two weeks ago and to say the
difference in her is amazing is an understatement! She is back up in
bed with us at night, gets up with no problems, have not heard any crying
and best of all, she is PLAYING with the puppy! Even grabbing toys
and making him chase her! And RUNNING around the backyard like a
little puppy! I was in tears the first time I saw her do that!!
And as if that weren't enough, she had a bad case of dandruff......ALL
GONE!
I have put my other two on it (2 yo rottie boy, and 16 week old
rottie pup). They LOVE IT!
I wish I had know about this product before. I had a rottie boy with
pretty severe h/d and I know this would have helped him. (We lost
him a little over a year ago after a short bitter battle with OS.
Not to the OS, but sadly to kidney failure, as the vet messed up during
chemo.)
Anyway, thank you for helping me to help my sweet girl to enjoy life again
(and also for giving my other two a great way to stay in good shape!)
I would recommend your product to anyone without hesitation. As a
matter of fact, I still belong to a group about canine bone cancer.
I am sure many would be interested in adding this product to their pets
diets, as being a tripod can really mess with their joints.
Thank you again,
Mary Pappas,
Essex, MA
December 1, 1997 Ms. Janis Gianforte Dear Janis: I was thrilled to have the opportunity to speak with you on the phone today. I would like to let you know a little bit about my experience with Nupro. I have a 13 year old Miniature Schnauzer, Schnoppie, that I have had her entire life (my first child). About 3 years ago she was stricken with terrible arthritis, with horrible shakes, with periods of time that she couldn't move and I knew she was very uncomfortable. My husband and I had to have that serious discussion about her quality of life. After the tears and the realization we started looking and hoping for an alternative. We were introduced to Nupro through a breeder that we purchased a Giant Schnauzer from. Part of the agreement in purchasing this dog was to keep him on the Nupro. We started Schnoppie on your product following the instructions on the dosage. Within a month her shaking had subsided, she was a lot more lively, her arthritis seemed to be much better. This was everything we had hoped for but, we received more with the Nupro product. Schnoppie had a new layer of thick soft hair growing, her skin had always been itchy and dry, not anymore, and her beautiftil little eyes that had been so cloudy and sad were suddenly alert, clear and happy. Schnoppie is still an older dog that needs special attention (mostly love). However, I knew she is a much happier dog by the way she looks and her excitement for life. Grady, our three year old Giant Schnauzer, has been on your product all of his life. He is the most healthy, shiny, fit animal you will ever see. We love our animals and want you to know how much we appreciate your product that keeps them at their best. Let us know when you invent a formula for humans! A very happy customer Shauna Day Coskey 4/1/98 Dear Nutri-Pet, Thank you for the last order of Nupro. I hope my puppy buyers will be as happy with the product as I have been. My blue merle smooth Collie, Ch. Natural Showgirl, CGC TDI TT VC, has been on Nupro for over a year now. Because of your product, I am going to be able to show her at our National Specialty this year. You see, she has been plagued in the past with hot spots and staph infections while "blowing coat". Since using Nupro this has stopped!! She started to shed about a month ago and I wasn't going to enter her at the National, but I started to notice that she wasn't loosing a lot of hair! So I went ahead and entered her. I am amazed at her condition. I want to thank you for making a great product! I hope I have as much luck in the "specials" ring as I have had with using Nupro. Thanks, Christine Chin Wrangler Collies Subject: Requesting further information Hi Janis, My name is Bruce MacPherson. I live in Ontario, Canada, where I breed Golden Retrievers and Keeshonds. I have been using the Nupro product for the past couple of years. Both my male and female Goldens have been thriving and I would like to think that Nupro is part of the reason. I recently bred my Goldens and they produced ten beautiful puppies, Very consistent in type, size, and colour. Needless to say, I am thrilled. pups are eight days old and gaining in size rapidly. My bitch, Canadian Champion Goldcap's Tally Ho To Brevmac is in wonderful shape. My male, Canadian Champion Azure1s Hunter for Brevmac is in top form at six years age. We are hoping to keep possibly three puppies from this litter which will become future Canadian/American Champion Brevmac Dogs. Our Keeshond are also on Nupro. We currently own Canadian/American Champion Brevmac's Dances With Wolves, Canadian Champion Brevmac '5 Hope For Glory, Brevmac '5 Hail To Holly C.D.X., and American/Canadian Childericks Bette Davis Eyes. As you can imagine, I want to give the dogs in my kennel the best and Nupro has been part of my formula! Looking forward to receiving information regarding feeding instructions and information that puppy buyers could use. Sincerely, Bruce MacPherson March18,1998 Nutri-Pet Research, Inc. Dear Janice: Your name was given to me by Donna at Nischwitz & Co. in South Plainfield, NJ. I wanted to let you know how great my husband and I feel your product NUPRO is. I have been giving it to my German Shepherd dog for about 3 months and the difference in her coat is incredible. Her fur actually shines! In addition, she used to shed terribly and the vacuum cleaner had a major task in trying to pick up her fur. We often would find a bunch of fur on the carpeting and around the kitchen table. Now, she is no longer shedding and this alone makes NUPRO a real asset to me. I am so very glad that Donna recommended NUPRO to us and I thought you would like to know how great we feel your product is. Sincerely, Lorayne M. Didodo (Mrs. Joseph Didodo) Dear Cathy, I want to thank you personally for sending me NUPRO all natural nutritional supplement for my dogs. I would like others to be aware that this stuff really works! Following are three testimonials on how NUPRO has directly improved my dogs' health and condition. The first time I heard of NUPRO was from a Labrador owner and breeder. I told her about my 6 month old Doberman who had alternating limping due to the veterinarian diagnosis of "growing pains". The suggested treatment was quiet rest and aspirin. Being a non-conventional person I was opposed to aspirin. I was also afraid of calcium supplementation due to his breed and growth rate on an already high quality food with calcium added. This person suggested NUPRO. Not only was my poor baby limping all the time, but even worse was that he was not interested in eating. I added chicken drippings, yogurt and whatever else I could to encourage him to eat. All was to no avail. I bought some NUPRO and put it in his food. Not only did he gulp down his food, but after 2 weeks he stopped limping completely and has had no recurrence of the "growing pains". My other experience was with my Labrador female. She is a chocolate and has some pink pigmentation around her eyes and nose (this is undesirable in a chocolate). I started her on NUPRO and within three weeks not only was her pigmentation darker, but even her coat was much darker. The last testimonial I have to offer is probably the most dramatic. In October of 1995 a Labrador breeder and I purchased a 2 year old black lab male. When we got him he had "hot spots" around his neck, on his hindquarters and an area the size of a dinner plate on his back near the tail. He was immediately put on NUPRO and within 3 weeks all the spots were cleared up. Most amazingly was that within 6 weeks the hair had grown in and you could not tell he had ever had "hot spots"! I have recommended NUPRO to many people and am completely sold on the products benefits. I am generally highly skeptical about such claims, but I am glad I took a chance on NUPRO. Thanks Cathy for bringing this product to Florida. Sincerely, Christina Leno February 18, 1998 Nutri-Pet Research, inc. 8 West Main Street Farmingdale, NJ 07727 Dear Nutri-Pet Research, inc.: Ths letter is in regard to your Dog and Cat Supplement: Nupro. I wanted to let you know that you have developed a superior pet supplement. I have used other brands in the past and none have compared with the results from using Nupro. I currently feed four dogs and three are different breeds, two Australian Shepherds, one Rottweiler and one Boston Terrier. Quite the combination, I agree. The Rottie was diagnosed at nine months with hypothyroidism and I~ deficient. In other words, she had no "first line of defense" immune system. I have fought to keep her in condition with the best natural-processed diet and supplements. In September of 1997, we moved to eastern Washington and I found your supplement through a mail-order catalog. Previously I used the Solid Gold seameal and flaxseed oil, but these items were hard to obtain over here. The girl at J B Wholesale recommended Nupro when the Solid Gold products were back-ordered 6-8 weeks. She uses the product to supplement her Australian Shepherd, so I thought I would give it a try. When I received the five-pound jar, I was impressed with the ingredients and all the enzymes. I started feeding Nupro to all my dogs and the Rottie, who had lost the hair on her muzzle and started thinning on her feet, GREW THE HAIR BACK ON HER MUZZLE in less than a month!! !!! I was Impressed!!!!!! I had just purchased the Boston puppy and he had terribly dry skin. He was raised on a premium diet, Eukanuba, but still looked lacking in condition. Well, after just three weeks on your terrific product his coat is gorgeous!!!!!! No more dry flaky skin!!! Thank you again for developing such a great supplement! !! My dogs say a big THANK YOU too. Sincerely, Judi E. Patterson July 17, 1997 Nutri-Pet Research, Inc. Dear Nutri-Pet Research, Inc.: We are writing to you to let you know how pleased we are with the NUPRO All Natural Ferret Supplement. We have a Six year old Ferret named Moon who is with us today, which I truly believe is due to the NUPRO. The following is a true account of Moon, his battle with death and how he has won up to today. Moon came to us March 3, 1997 seemingly healthy and weighing 3-1/2 lbs. A beautiful Albino with the most true pink eyes. You can look into them and feel as if you are touching his soul.Moon's first Vet visit was on the same day. He left with a clean bill of health. Within a week Moon's appetite had decreased, his stomach was making very loud gurgling noises, he was lethargic and was not responsive. He was taken back to the Vet, given an antibiotic due to the stomach noises and a red & inflamed pharynx. Moon started vomiting after being given the antibiotic. He was placed on Pepcid twice a day. But, he still was vomiting and his appetite continued to decrease. By March 18th he was vomiting multiple times, dehydrated, and very thin, weighing in at 2-1/2 lbs. Moon's was given numerous tests, and an exploratory surgery showing that the stomach was grossly abnormal in color and texture, and he had a thickened liver and spleen. Biopsy's were taken. He vomited in post-op. His Histopath was sent to Tufts University. The Histopath came back "Consistent with Inflammatory Bowel Disease". And of course he was put on more medication and we started giving him 170 mIs of sub-cue fluids per day. Every time he took medication, food, or water he would vomit. We had come to a point where we and are Vet did not know what else to do. Our Vet referred us to a Doctor at Angel Memorial Hospital in Boston, who specialized in exotic animals. On April 16, 997, Moon was given an X-ray and a Barium Swallow. His heart was grossly enlarged, he was diagnosed with Cardiomyopathy and also with Megaesophagus Megaesophagus is a condition where the esophagus looses its elasticity, becomes loose and stretched out and does not have a natural muscle movement to push food down to the stomach. This causes vomiting because the natural contraction of the esophagus are sparatic. The vomiting in turn causes fluid to be forced into the lungs which causes pneumonia. The disease is very rare and is usually only has been seen in dogs. The Cardiomyopathy is treatable but usually fatal. The Megaesophagus is fatal. Moon was given two weeks to live. Moon had a follow up with the Vet on April 23rd Euthanasia was the only option at this time. Which would be when his quality of life deteriorated. He weighed 2.3 lbs. We were heart broken. This beautiful animal had come into our lives and created such a bond with us, we did not want to loose him. He was part of us as a whole. We felt that one of the parts of the whole would be lost forever. We could not take that risk, and we were willing to do anything. We called the only person we knew who knew Ferrets better than anyone and had them for over 15 years. She told us that she had had a Ferret with the same disease and she told us what to do. She had sustained a Ferret for over a year by elevating the food, multiple feedings per day in small amounts, and always elevate after medication. But, one thing we might want to try that she had very good results with was a product called NUPRO. We called NUPRO that day and had some sent to us. When it arrived we imnediately made up a mixture of chicken or lamb baby food. wild ~ower honey, bananas. Sustical. and NUPRO. By the third feeding the vomiting had reduced remarkably and Moon was more active. By the next day Moon had stopped vomiting, there were no stomach noises anymore and he was running around the room!!!. We were ecstatic then nervous. Was this a miracle cure or simply the calm before the storm? Was Moon going to regress again? We continued with only two medications and what we call "The Moon Mixture~', the baby food and NUPRO. We told our Vet about it and he said that he did not see anything wrong with the NUPRO, in fact, he felt that the Lactobacillus Acidophilus, this enzyme would definitely help with Moon's condition. And it did! It helped him digest his food better, eliminating the gas problems and also, eliminated the vomiting. It did everything that the pamphlet and the brochure said that it would and more. On June 3, 1997, Moon's body weight was 3-1/2 lbs. Our Vet was astonished. He said that we re-wrote the book on Megaesophagus. He couldn't believe that Moon was still alive and to top it off, he was back to his normal body weight! He was totally amazed. Today Moon's body weight is at 4-1/2 lbs. and still growing. He started jumping, playing, and doing his Ferret chuckling. He is happy and very loving. Now all that we have to do is figure out how to tell him that he is not a dog (which we believe he thinks he is, that or human). He most definitely is all Ferret and very much ALIVE!!!! We would like to extend out deepest appreciation for your concern for animals which in turn helped in developing such a wonderful product. Without caring people, such as yourselves, and your great product, we would not have our Moon today. With our highest admiration, Tom & Brenda DeNitto Massachusetts November 12, 1998 Dear Janis, We want to thank you for putting our dogs onto Nupro Supplement. Our French Bulldog, B.J., had lost most of his hair and he had dry flaky scabs all over his back and stomach. When the scabs came off so did his hair. He looked terrible. Our vet put him on shots once a month to boost his immune system - didn’t work. He tried antibiotics - didn’t work. He changed his dog food two or three times - didn’t work. We had to bathe him every other day in a very expensive shampoo - didn’t work. He had him on anti-itch medications, he changed his heartworm medication - you name it, we tried it. As you can imagine, the expense was very extensive. After trying everything, I got on the Internet one day and starting looking for a solution. I came across your Internet site and called you immediately. I called to inquire about your Nupro Supplement. We talked for a very long time. You described B.J.’s skin problem exactly and suggested we try the Nupro for thirty days and if it didn’t work you would refund our money if we weren’t completely satisfied with the results. WE DON’T WANT OUR MONEY BACK!!! The change in B.J. has been unbelievable. Within ten days his hair had started to grow back and his skin was beginning to clear up. He used to shed all over everything but now he sheds very little. I have to tell you this (with my husband’s permission). After talking to you I was very excited. I told my husband that I had talked to you and had ordered the Nupro and told him all you had told me. He was very, very skeptical and did not believe it would work. I told him we had nothing to lose by trying Nupro. He is now a believer. He said that no one could have made him believe that Nupro would bring about such a change in a dog. He just shakes his head and says, "I can’t believe it." We have two other dogs, a Yorkie (M.C.) and a Schnauzer (Rambo) that are also getting Nupro. They all three love it. They lick their bowls clean. Our Yorkie has always been a picky eater, but no more. They can’t wait to be fed. They had what you would call a doggie odor before - but since Nupro they don’t. Their hair just shines. I didn’t mean to go on and on but we were so frustrated because we were spending so much money but getting no results. Nupro has made B.J. one happy dog. We no longer have to give hydroxzine to our dogs because of allergies. We were giving each dog four pills a day for the itching. Janis, thanks so much. We are happy and our dogs are happy. We will not be without Nupro ever again. I can’t wait to visit my vet again and tell him all about you and Nupro. Sincerely, Barbara Isham University of Kentucky June 24, 1992 Dear Janis, I just want to send you a quick note letting you know how pleased I am with your Nupro all natural dog supplement. I have a six month old Akita puppy who has suffered with a chronic urinary tract infection for over two months. He had stopped eating and was completely lifeless for quite an extended period of time. Out of desperation, I tried Nupro and the electrolytes on this puppy. I cannot believe the improvement of this animal. In only three weeks, he has put on 12 pounds, stopped heavy hair loss, is full of energy, and his coat is shiny and healthy. I am a firm believer in using only natural products free of artificial additives, colors and preservatives. I am very impressed with the list of ingredients in the Nupro. Prior to my Nupro discovery, I supplemented my dog’s all-natural food with brewers yeast and seameal. As soon as my yeast/seameal supply is depleted, I intend to put my 16-month old female Akita on Nupro as well. I am promoting your product to all animal lovers that I encounter. Thank you and keep up the good work. Sincerely, Dale Freelan A Very Happy Customer Dear Nupro, Just a word to say, "THANKS" AND "WOW" for making such a wonderful line of products. We have been using your All Natural Dog Supplement and Custom Electrolyte Formula for several years now and have had nothing but great results. Not only do my dogs look and perform better, but they never seem to run out of energy. We recommend NUPRO to all the people who buy our puppies and send them all home with a sample to try. Mr. M. Belcher GRIP TITE KENNELS Philadelphia, PA PS A.R.B.A./F.I.C. CH. Schmid & Belchers, Nadine and A.R.B.A. CH. Schmid’s Rohmel say "Thanks for helping us become CHAMPS!" March 16, 1993 To Whom it May Concern: We would like to take this opportunity to express the success we have had in retailing your product "Nupro". Since taking on "Nupro", three years ago, we have positioned the product as the premier vitamin supplement available in powder form. In addition to its palatability, our customers have found "Nupro" to be head and shoulders above other supplements for skin and coat conditioning. On a more personal note, we have used "Nupro" for our dogs and can attest to its effectiveness in eliminating hot spots and promoting appetite. So, keep up the good work. Your idea of changing the lid on the 20 lb. Container has made it much easier to open. Thank you for your innovative ideas. Very truly yours, Teresa M. Frattini Partner Frank P. Frattini Partner The Hungry Puppy Farmingdale, NJ March 24, 1997 Dear Bruce, I have three English Springer Spaniels, two of which are Champions of the breed. The third Springer is bred for the field. Several years ago the field bred Springer developed allergies that consisted of red eyes, scratching, loss of coat luster, ear problems and hot spots just to name a few. Since I had my bitch on NUPRO, I decided to give it a go with Max; that was last October. Amazingly, after about six weeks, I noticed that Max no longer had red eyes and all the other symptoms. I can’t believe it, but we got through the whole winter without a hot spot or any other annoying discomfort to this wonderful companion. I might add, that I also only believe in feeding my animals products that don’t have any artificial preservatives and this alone did not do the trick. It was only when I added NUPRO to his diet that I saw the change. Congratulations for making such a fine product. Sincerely, Judy Kolt New York May 7, 1998 Dear Nupro, I am a trainer at Dogs for the Deaf in Central Point, OR. We were fortunate to have you send us a large supply of Nupro for our use with the dogs in training at DFD. We obtain our dogs from mostly Humane Society shelters and municipal animal control facilities throughout the U.S. For the most part, the health and vitality of these dogs when we get them are poor. Many are strays that have had little or no care during their life. We see many of the dogs coming in with severe cases of intestinal worms, some with varying degrees of kennel cough, and even others with parvo or heartworm. During their recovery and throughout their stay we feed a premium brand of dog food, but even then it takes many weeks before the dogs begin to show signs of good health such as their coat improving, greater energy levels and better overall confidence, which I believe stems from their better health. We have seen a decrease in the time it takes for the dogs to reach that healthy state using Nupro. I wanted to let you know how much I appreciate the help you have given Dogs for the Deaf by the donation of your product. I just wanted to say thank you for your generosity. Sincerely, Kim Meinhardt Certified Audio Canine Trainer Dogs for the Deaf March 21, 1993 Dear Janis, We started using NUPRO all natural dog supplement about one year ago and I have been meaning to write and tell you how pleased I am with your product. Using one nutritional supplement with the many breeds of dogs I own and train is definitely a first for me. Breeds as varied and diverse as Akitas, German Shepherds, Tibetan Terrier, Cocker Spaniel, Belgian Malinois, Australian Shepherd, and a mixed breed usually do not do well on the same supplement. These dogs have not only done well, they are doing absolutely thriving. I keep a very hectic schedule working the dogs in Agility, Tracking, Competitive Obedience, and Conformation with hopes of adding herding this spring. I need a supplement that will give my dogs the extra they need to work all day and be in the show ring the next and NUPRO has done that for me. The dogs’ coats, nails, teeth, and energy level is fantastic. Even the geriatric crew is running around like they were five years younger. NUPRO is also extremely palatable and smells wonderful. Even the most picky eaters rush to eat when they have NUPRO on their food. I just mix up the NUPRO with some warm water and it makes a very rich brown gravy on their food, that they absolutely love. I also spend much of my free time as a volunteer for Akita Rescue, and our local SPCA. NUPRO has worked beyond belief on abused, abandoned, and undernourished animals. I am enclosing two pictures taken three weeks apart on one of our rescue dogs who was fed NUPRO. I think the results speak for themselves. Sincerely, Belinda J. Lang LaGrange Dog Rescue PS I also love the electrolyte supplement…but that’s another letter. May 5, 1998 Nupro was exactly as you promised! When we received our first shipment of Nupro, our golden retriever, Iris, was already shedding handfuls of coat during her baths in preparation for her heat and the upcoming spring. During her next weekly bath, the amount of hair loss was equal to a quarter size. She continues to retain a luxurious, full coat though she is pre-heat and warmer weather has arrived. The other benefit is that, though she was a picky eater before, she inhales her food now. Every last morsel! She loves the taste of Nupro! Linda Shipman Alaska March 7, 1997 Dear Janis, I would like to relate a bit of my experience with Nupro. I have two Rottweilers, both rescues, who have been on Nupro since January of this year. Maia (approximately 1 year old female) was VERY underweight and had been through some physical abuse. Bear (4 year old male) had been starved and severely abused. I immediately put them on the Nupro mixed with water in their kibble, when they came home with me. The difference in them not only physically, but temperamentally has been nothing short of wonderful. When I say temperament, I don’t mean to imply that they were vicious, in fact quite the opposite, they were both very nervous and frankly scared. But lots of love, patience, consistency, and an excellent diet (which includes Nupro at every meal) has them in wonderful condition. Maia was a very slim 50.5 lbs when she came to me. She’s now a very healthy 65 lbs (and gaining), beautiful muscle-tone, and a personality that just lights up a room! Bear’s weight was pretty good when he came to me, but his coat was a MESS! Now his coat is beautiful. He plays like a puppy, and he’s steady as a rock. He’s also about 110 lbs these days! I can say that I will not be without Nupro for my "babies", and recommend it enthusiastically. I can say that I will not be without Nupro for my "babies", and recommend it enthusiastically. Bear and Maia would too, since they wolf it down! Also, I appreciate your company and its efforts to help with rescue by making Nupro available to us as affordably as is possible. Many thanks, and I look forward to speaking with you again. Sincerely yours, Lois Douglass Bear & Maia June 30, 1998 Dear Nupro, This is one of the rare times I’ve sat down to write a letter of appreciation for a product. I’ve been doing rescue work with animals for almost fifteen years, and over the course of time I’ve learned how imperative good nutrition is to an animal’s health (especially to the abused and neglected pets who have come my way). I try to use only natural, holistic care for the animals, and one product that’s a basic part of the program is Nupro. This is such a high quality, well balanced supplement, incorporating exactly the right mixture of nutrients. I used to buy many of the same supplements individually at a much higher over-all price! And the results are apparent in just a matter of weeks, even in animals with long term skin and health problems. A perfect example is Zoe, a dog that was just recently turned in because her owner was tired of dealing with her skin condition. She was suffering from terrible allergies, was almost bald, covered in sores and hot spots, itched constantly, and had a severe ear infection. Her owner had been treating her for almost a year with antibiotics, steroids, and chemicals dips and baths. I immediately took her off those treatments, put her on a natural (no by-products, no preserves) dog food, and added Nupro (plus some herbs to boost her immune system). It’s now been just over one month, and not only has her skin cleared up completely, but her fur is starting to come in silky soft and her ears have healed! She’s bright eyed, full of energy, and will soon be ready for adoption! I’ve been giving out samples of Nupro with each adoption and will continue to encourage everyone to try this supplement for their pets. Thank you for such a quality product!
