If you get a spray bottle with water and spray the dry cat food just before you sprinkle the powder on it and after, it will adhere to the cat food better. I tried this product for my dog and saw absolutely no improvement whatsoever, but she also did not have any negative affects. I did get a refund.

I ordered this in July, just after having foot surgery. Before it arrived, I happened upon this page and read about people’s dogs getting sick from having this product. I was so alarmed, that when it arrived I did not even open the package, because if my dog got sick, I would not be able to quickly take her to the vet due to my inability to weight bear or walk.
It wasn’t until early November that I was able to walk and carry my dog if needed to the car to drive to the vet. So I started putting the powder on her food and she liked it. So far so good.

My dog suffers from chronic allergies and has been on a low-dose of prednisone for years. After she had been using this product for several weeks I stopped the prednisone to see if the symptoms would return. I was hoping she would no longer need the prednisone, but unfortunately she began coughing, sneezing, and vomiting bile.
Let me be clear, this was not in any way in reaction to this product, rather this was how she normally behaved when she was not on prednisone. I had hoped that this product would mitigate the need for the prednisone, alas it did not. In fact I saw absolutely no change in my dog’s behavior, other than the fact that she enjoyed the taste of her food with this powder on it, rendering it nothing more than a very expensive ‘spice’.
Shayne, can you help me get a refund, even though it’s past the 90 days?

I have lost track of how many times Shayne is sorry to hear about an unusual case of adverse reactions. I have ordered this and it’s been sitting on the counter. I am afraid to try it.

I ordered the supplement but now I’m afraid to even try it. I am in a leg cast and cannot drive my dog to the vet if something goes wrong. Have other peoples vets cited specific ingredients as unhealthy?
I will be in the cast for another five weeks. If I do decide to try this, it will probably be too late to return it if it doesn’t work. all these stories of averse reactions makes me hesitate.

I have been doing some research on this product one thing I found was “[A] vet noted that glutathione will pass through your dog’s body with little effect on your dog’s health. Folic acid could help your dog but you’d need to have your vet check your dog’s folic acid levels before taking Nutra Thrive, another vet pointed out.”
Can’t recall source site, sorry.
Overall most reviews were positive. I may give it a try.
(Pretty sure Shayne will weigh in🙂)
