K9 SelectMulti-Formula Dog Vitamins for Medium Dogs - 20mg HMR Lignans, 2mg Melatonin, 40mg Milk Thistle - Helps Heart, Liver, Digestion & Coat Health, Dog Multivitamin, 90 Capsules

I've been purchasing this brands regular Melatonin for my little 12 yr old Maltese for years. She has some anxiety especially in the evenings so she would get one every night before bed & it's always helped her sleep.She was recently diagnosed with Cushings & the prescription medication Vetoryl caused many terrible side effects, the worst being she had weakening in her back legs & became unable to stand up or walk on her own! My vet said this IS a known side effect of that particular medication but it's very rare. After speaking with her in length about it & getting her okay, I decided to take her off the medication completely & go with a more holistic approach.I learned that Milk Thistle & Lignans were good for treating Cushings naturally & I was happy to find that this particular brand made a Melatonin supplement that included those 2 ingredients so I purchased a bottle immediately! They are chewable & Peanut Butter flavored & my little girl looks forward to getting one every night now!She has been off the prescription medication & taking these instead for about 3 weeks...she's fully regained use of her back legs & her Cushings symptoms (panting, excessive drinking, bloated belly) have all gotten much better! She still has these symptoms but no where near as severe as they were!I would definitely speak with your vet before switching from prescription meds to these as it may not be the right solution for every dog with Cushings & it can be dangerous to suddenly stop a medication without being weaned off slowly but you can also give these along with prescription Cushings medication so it's atleast worth a try in my opinion.

Our 11 year old dog has cushings. After 3 weeks on Lignans and melatonin the symptoms have improved so will keep him on this..highly recommended.

My pups hair started growing back almost immediately she has more energy and clearly these are helping with cushions type symptoms. HoweverShe’s tiny so I got the 1 mil ones chewable tab peanut butter at any cost she will find a way to spit it out. Cheese treats hiding it in anything I have resulted to begging her to take it so she can have breakfast or dinner. It really must taste awful. I wish they could do something… but maybe they cannot. Ya know how some vitamins taste good but they are not working. Maybe this one has to be this way. In this case I wish it was SMALLER and not flavored so I could hide it better and more easier.I want to give a lower score to get their attention but it’s working the pill is working so how can I give it a bad rating.Will I look for a different brand? Possibly… she grown to dread it and I cannot think of new ideas to hide it. 😭

I give it to my dog to help with crushings.

These pills smell so awful I can't stand to have the lid off the jar for more than a few seconds. My dog hates them no matter how I try to disguise them and she is usually good about taking pills. The smell is so strong that I can't hide them in anything - she knows right away and refuses to take them. I can't believe they claim these things are chewable! No dog would chew something that smells like this!

My dog was diagnosed with Cushings disease in 2020. We did a year of prescription treatment, but the side effects were heart breaking. We switched to a more natural treatment and have seen great improvement! These pills are easy to break in half (he gets 1.5 pills twice a day) and he doesn’t seem to mind the flavor of them. I can just drop them in his food and he gobbles them up.

I started this after my dog wasn’t getting any better. She had all the symptoms of cushings but no diagnosis. After 2 mos she sleeps all night again and isn’t ravenous. She seems happier and not so anxious. She is a lab mix, 12 years old.

My dog will not eat the vitamin. She has about 6 other vitamins that she gobbles right up. I’ve tasted it and it taste like a chalky substance... no flavor. My dog literally will eat spinach so that’s how bad this thing tastes. I would do your research in finding vitamins that taste better as These are non-returnable.

Perfect natural therapy for our fur baby, it’s improved her Cushings significantly!Highly recommend, even approved by her vet (who originally pushed the pharmaceutical meds).

Would highly recommend as it has dramatically improved the overall happiness and health (coat softness, weight and quality of sleep). We have a female Golden retriever for reference.

thanks
