My German Shorthaired Pointer/Lab mix suffered a torn cruciate ligament in his left knee about 3 years ago. After two operations the joint was badly damaged and the prognosis for mobility fair at best. I've been using msm with him since that time, together with a mostly raw diet, and his recovery has been remarkable. He is now 10 years old, walks/jumps/plays with only a very slight limp, can easily run 10 miles, and shows only mild signs of arthritis on cold mornings. He is clear, sharp and looks great. I would highly recommend using msm with any dog or other animal.

His basic daily mix is: 1/4 tsp. msm, 1/4 tsp. glucosamine, 1 tbsp. spirulina or chlorella - all dissolved in 1/4 cup olive oil. I then mix in his usual raw food (google 'The BARF Diet'). Good luck! Your dog deserves it!
