Q:
How soon
can I expect to see results from Flavocin?
A: For
dogs with joint problems inflammation and pain should
begin to disappear within 1-2 weeks of use. Dogs
should begin to show increased mobility and flexibility
in 3 to 4 weeks. Since all dogs are different, some
respond well in less time, and some take more. A
lack of a response may indicate that the recommended
daily dosage was not enough for that animal. If
that occurs, increase the dosage by one tablet per
day for one week until positive results are seen,
and if so, please contact us so that we can be sure
that you're next shipment arrives when you need
it. It is important to remember that consistent
daily usage is best for positive long-term results.
In fact, that’s why we offer our Flavocin
Wellness Plan. It’s the smartest most economical
way to guarantee your dog gets the micronutrients
needed to live a long, happy and healthy life.
Q: What
is the recommended dosage for my dog?
A: For
small dogs up to 30 pounds you should give them
1 tablet per day. For those dogs that weigh between
31 and 60 pounds, they should get two chewable tablets
each day (1 tablet in the a.m. and 1 tablet in the
p.m.). And for large dogs over 60 pounds 3 tablets
per day is ideal (2 tablets in the a.m. and 1 tablet
in the p.m.)
Q:
What makes Flavocin different from the other
products out there?
A: There
are joint formulas available for your dog and there
are pet antioxidants out there too. Some are good…
and some are not so good. And if you wanted both—you
had to buy both. But now with Flavocin your dog
is getting the very best of both worlds. And that’s
what makes Flavocin so different. With Flavocin
your dog is getting the very best joint formula
and pet antioxidant in one easy-to-feed chewable
tablet. Scientifically developed to treat both the
symptoms and causes of joint problems Flavocin delivers
micronutrients directly to joints… keeping
cartilage, tendons, and ligaments healthy—and
your dog pain free. Not only that, but Flavocin
contains a powerful blend of antioxidants helping
your dog fight harmful free radicals. Many scientists
believe that free radicals may be a root cause of
more than 60 diseases including certain types of
cancer, cataracts, arthritis and heart disease as
well as the aging process itself.
Plus, Flavocin comes with a 60-day 100% satisfaction
guarantee. How many other dog products are so confident
that their formula will work that they can afford
to offer a guarantee like that? I think you’ll
find there aren’t many at all!

Q:
How long will my dog need to take
Flavocin?
A: It
is important to remember that consistent daily usage
is best for positive long-term results. You should
plan on giving your dog the recommended dosage of
Flavocin for at least 30 days to see results. If
you see noticeable improvement you can continue
with the same amount for uninterrupted results.
If you see imporvement with your dog's pain and
mobility, you should continue to give them Flavocin.
If you stop, the improvements will not last. That
is why many of our customers prefer our Wellness
Plan which locks in the lowest possible price and
ensures that you don't run out.
Q:
I've noticed several different brands of dog
food in TV ads and at my local pet superstore with
added supplements like glucosamine for "senior"
or "mature" dogs. Won't this do the same
thing for my dog as your product?
A: The
good news is the commercial dog food makers are
becoming believers in the health benefits of supplements
like glucosamine… or else they wouldn’t
be adding them to their pet foods. The bad news
is that some manufacturers put just enough of the
ingredient in a product to get it listed on the
label… but it’s often in such a small
amount that it provides no noticeable benefit. Studies
show that to help treat joint problems, your dog
needs 500 mg of Glucosamine HCl for every 30 pounds
of weight—each and every day. And Flavocin
contains 500 mg of Glucosamine in every chewable
tablet! Pet foods simply do not contain that much
in each serving. Why not? Because a 20 lb. bag of
dog food would cost them (and you) a fortune. And
one more point to remember… pet food makers
often use chicken cartilage as a source of their
glucosamine. Flavocin uses 99.9% pure Glucosamine
HCl... and lots of it!
Q:
My dog is a finicky eater. Will
he like Flavocin?
A: Chances
are pretty good (9 out of 10) that he will. Most
dogs find the natural beef and liver flavors very
tasty, and some even come running when they hear
the bottle shake. However, in the rare case that
dogs won’t eat the chewables plain, by themselves,
you can easily crumble it and mix it in with their
food.
Q:
My dog is allergic to beef, or
I am concerned about BSE contamination (mad cow
disease). I see that Natural Beef Flavor is listed
on your label. Will my dog be able to eat Flavocin?
A: The
Natural Beef Flavoring in Flavocin is actually made
from a vegetable base, and it has no beef products
in it whatsoever, so it should be completely safe
for your dog.
Q:
I see some joint formulas for
dogs with MSM in them? Is that OK to give to my
dog?
A: According
to the American Association of Feed Control Officials
(AAFCO) MSM or methylsulfonylmethane is not Generally
Recognized As Safe (GRAS) for dogs. However, all
the ingredients in Flavocin are GRAS-approved by
the AAFCO. The inclusion of MSM in some canine joint
formulas is to supply elemental Sulfur, which is
an essential ingredient for joint health and growth.
We use the natural antioxidant Cysteine in our formula
to provide that elemental Sulfur.
Q:
My dog is on the borderline between the weights
you specify for Medium and Large dogs. Should I
give him the smaller dosage?
A: If
dogs are between weight classes it’s probably
best to opt for the higher class. Giving your dog
a little extra “boost” with a larger
dosage…maybe three tablets instead of two…
can provide faster results. As your dog continues
to improve you can cut back a little and use a maintenance
dose for long-term health.
Q:
Why are you giving away a $14.95
book FREE?
A: Many
thousands of dogs are using prescription medications
for their joint and hip dysplasia problems, and
sometimes the prescribed medications don't have
much effect — or can be just plain harmful
to the dogs that take them — so I knew I had
to do something. You see, lots of dog owners would
prefer not to give their dog’s prescription
meds, after all they aren’t cheap and the
potential side effects were just too risky. So I
did some research and discovered the book, "8
Weeks to a Healthy Dog". And reading it
really opened my eyes! It’s packed with lots
of great info on why dogs are so prone to joint
problems and it described a low-cost, safe and effective
treatment regimen to halt, reverse, and reduce the
pain and inflammation resulting from osteoarthritis
in dogs. Because this 246-page book has so much
information in it I knew there was way too much
information to share with you here, so I figured
the best way was to give it to you so that you can
see for yourself… and you won’t have
to go through all the same research. And the truth
is, by following a few simple steps as outlined
in the book… it can absolutely, positively
help your dog overcome joint problems. Using Flavocin
and the information found in 8 Weeks to a Healthy
Dog is a powerful one-two punch.
Q:
Can my pet overdose on your product?
What should I do if he eats the whole bottle?
A: We've
had customers whose dogs who ate an entire bottle
of tablets and the pet owners reported absolutely
no adverse reaction. If the dog swallows a large
amount of tablets, our vet recommends eliminating
feeding of Flavocin for a week. Your dog may show
symptoms of gastro-intestinal distress like vomiting
or diarrhea, but these symptoms should be temporary.
If your dog does get diarrhea, be sure to provide
plenty of water. Your vet may choose to administer
activated charcoal if these kinds of symptoms of
irritation to the GI tract do occur.
Q:
Can I give my dog my own glucosamine
supplements?
A: You
could, but you probably shouldn’t. Just because
it’s safe for human use doesn’t mean
it’s safe for dogs. Ibuprofen is a good example.
Even though it’s OK for you and me, it can
be toxic and fatal to dogs. In fact, you shouldn’t
even give cat food to dogs. A good rule of thumb
is to only give your dog foods, nutrients, and treats
designed specifically for them. Because Flavocin
has been developed with the aid of a clinical nutritionist
and a staff veterinarian—exclusively for dogs—you
can be sure it’s safe and effective.
Q:
My dog is getting older, but isn't
showing any signs of joint problems. Would there
be any benefit to giving him the product before
he starts to show symptoms?
A: That’s
a tough question to answer. Even though we think
the science proves that most every dog can benefit
from Flavocin, maybe this is the best way to think
about it: While your dog isn’t showing any
signs of aging now… odds are, age is going
to start catching up. It’s a hard fact of
life—especially for dogs—since they
age 7 times faster than we do. Scientists now believe
that damage from free radicals is the number one
cause of disease and aging in dogs. And the best
way to fight free radicals is with antioxidants
like those found in Flavocin. That’s why a
lot of our customers give their dogs Flavocin right
now—they are trying to prevent the problems
before they happen. And it’s possible with
Flavocin because it has a powerful blend of micronutrients
designed to keep your dog’s natural healing
process in high gear, and your dog active, healthy,
and happy throughout its life.

include your order# in the email) and you will no
longer be sent any more product and your credit

Q:
I'd like to order your product, but I'm nervous
about using my credit card over the Internet. Is
it safe to do so, and if I'm still worried about
it how else can I order?
