Dog Stories

Nash

Fendi
Fendi is a Pomeranian I’ve had since she was a puppy. She will be 17 this year and acts like she is a puppy which I believe is all because of your food. A few years ago I had her on regular kibble, she was having seizures, was on medications and I honestly thought this is it. Then I really started looking into the food I was feeding. I tried different foods and lowered her meds and her seizures slowed down but once I found Vital Essentials I was able to stop her medicine completely and she hasn’t had one seizure in years! I mean no seizures since starting this food. Everyone that meets her cannot believe this is a 17 year old dog. You gave me my puppy back and I’m forever grateful. – Jayme |

Zeke
I discovered my love for dogs 10 years ago when I started fostering and dog walking. I adopted my 5th foster, Macy, a 3 year old Tibetan Terrier, then fostered 40 puppies. I adopted foster number 45 in July of 2020 because I saw his calm, gentle soul and knew he would be the best certified therapy dog. I named him Zeke. At 3 months he started having skin issues. I spent the next year working with the vets to try and get him better, but he kept getting worse. In September of 2021 I accidentally found a dog nutritionist. She had me stop all topicals and just use neosporin, and I started him on Vital Essentials freeze dried rabbit mini nibs food along with goatmilk. After a month I noticed a difference, at 2 months an even bigger difference, mid February 2022 we started trying the salmon version and shortly we’ll be trying the duck. Vital Essentials has been so supportive through my introduction to raw food for dogs, with covid taking a turn for the better. Zeke will be getting certified shortly and start visiting kids in the hospital mainly through the Zaching Against Cancer Foundation, and for anyone else who could use his help. He’ll be 2 on April 23, 2022 and through all his pain he still has that calm gentle soul I saw at 8 weeks old. – Theresa

Camo
Vital Essentials mini nibs have allowed Camo to eat the raw food that his body does best on while still using his dry food puzzles that his mind enjoys. – Autumn

Barney Jose
Barney being a basset hound they usually tend to be a smelly breed. Since we discovered the raw salmon skins, his coat has improved so much. His coat is gleaming, and it is less smelly. The only treats that make Barney pay attention is the duck hearts – they are life saviors when he does not want to drop something he shouldn’t eat. These treats are life saviors!!! – Isis

Kasey
Kasey is 15 and she suffers from a torn ACL; it cant be fixed because she has a heart condition. The RELIEF and RELAX Hemp Chews are a godsent. She benefits from both they help her so much! Just to be able to walk around the yard is nice for me to see. Thank you for such a wonderful product! – Patti

Husky
My senior husky went from slipping when she’d try to stand, and her back legs trembling out from under her, to a new dog. This stuff is simply amazing!!! She did have a few accidents as her stomach got used to the chews, but that stopped after a couple of days. She must love the flavor because she eats them right up. I have added the Revive treats along with this to help with her energy and she has recently tried jogging a little on our walks. There’s a pep in her step!!! – Brooke

Peach
I’m Jennifer, my dog Peach is a huge fan of Vital Essentials. I wanted to reach out and tell you a little bit about our experience using your Turkey toppers. We’ve been using them as a supplement for the last 5 weeks to help up her Taurine levels and aid in holistic heart health.
Peach was diagnosed with a severe grade 3 heart murmur at 7 1/2 weeks. We were advised by our vet to either return her to the breeder or to be ready to use euthanasia.
Neither of those options were what we wanted to do, so we decided to accept her fate and just give her the absolute best life we could for as long as she had left. Managing any symptoms holistically through diet and supplements.
At our last vet appointment, they were blown away at how much she had improved, and even down graded her diagnosis to a level 2.
I’m a nutritionist and have zero back ground in animal health, but I would like to say thank YOU for making such a big difference in the health of my pup, Peach! – Jennifer

Baloo
Baloo has always been a picky eater with a sensitive stomach, and finding the right food for him is challenging. The same goes for treats and we find ourselves short of good treats, of course until we found Vital Essentials Freeze-Dried Food and Treats. It’s been over 3 months of us giving him the rabbit Freeze-Dried recipe mixed with his kibble and we don’t have to coax him to eat his food anymore!
He is always looking forward to meal time. Moreover, we have seen a big difference in his alertness during this time – and his food is the only thing that has changed! We recently also started using the Wild Salmon Treats as our training and hiking treats and could not be more in love. – A Happy Dog Mom
