"When I received Baron he was severely emaciated, covered with mange, and his coat was very dull. Within a few months of using Vetraceuticals, his coat is VERY shiny, he has no more mange, his eyes are much brighter, and he has a lot more energy, as well as now being at an ideal weight."

Ellie
Ellie, Chinese Crested approx 1 year, female. "Now with her I have noticed large changes too. She used to have allergies and of course with no hair you could easily see the skin irritation, and her skin was very ashy and dry. I have had comments from other Chinese Crested owners on how nice her skin looks, and I do not have any more allergy problems with her! Now it is not to say that one day she could have an allergic reaction to something, but I know she does not have the break outs and the skin problems that she had in the past!"
Maverick BH
Maverick BH - Born approx April 2000. Neutered male, mixed breed (malinois/shepherd type mix). Has done some schutzhund, sheepherding, and other dog sports, though is mostly retired. extremely terrified of loud popping noises including thunder, fireworks, gunshots, bubble wrap, and even the click a binder makes when you open it! Has eaten premium kibble his entire life (with about a year of raw when he was young), was on canidae I believe (I've forgotten) when we started with vetraceuticals. This boy is my "scaredy cat". He puts on a good bluff, but would just as soon eat through walls or bloody his paws before tolerating any popping noise. He has always had a great coat and been fairly healthy as an adult, but because of my success with vetraceuticals with my other dogs, Maverick was given it as well. I did not immediately notice a major difference until one day I opened a binder and noticed that Maverick did not get up and run. He looked at me, but did not dive for the table as usual. Then we had some thunder, and while he still shook, he did not go into a blind panic. Fireworks started going off in the area a few weeks before Independence Day this year and I noticed that while he would shake a little and look at me, he was a LOT calmer. I had done nothing different, this dog has been like this for nearly 7.5 years so it took me a while to realize it may really be the vetraceuticals. I decided to take him off of it for a while to see if it made a difference, and it DID. He will continue to be on vetraceuticals. I personally believe that it helps him feel better but also has the B-complex in it that can help a dog dealing with stress.
"Hawk" Healy Lytle vom Klatolklin
"Hawk" Lytle vom Klatolklin born April 2007, intact male, schutzhund prospect. This dog had parvo as a puppy and had poor digestion ever since, UNTIL vetraceuticals. He had eaten several brands of food, and various digestive aids. I had tried him on 2 different types of dehydrated raw (honest kitchen and NDF2) and multiple brands of kibble trying to stop the extremely loose stools. We also could not keep weight on him, he was one of those very tall and lanky shepherds. The vet had him listed at 10 lbs underweight about a week before we started vetraceuticals (48 lbs at about 10 months old). When we first started the formula he was eating Honest Kitchen Thrive, but I was switching him to Royal Canin GSD. Within a few days his stools were appearing more normal, within weeks he had gained 10 lbs and for the most part his stools were completely normal (we only had a few loose stools here and there verses all the time). His coat looked better then ever, and he was eating less food but absorbing more of it. 4 months after starting Vetraceuticals I switched him to an entirely raw food (with his 1/2 brother Phoenix) and he has done very well with it. No more stool problems, his coat continues to look wonderful, and he has maintained his weight very well. He continues to lick the bottom of the bowl to make sure he gets every last lick of the powder!
