Charlie: The Little Rascal Living With Joint Discomfort

Lifestyles of the Furry & Fabulous 3 min read

He had joint discomfort in his hind legs, a luxating patella, and spondylopathy.

We recently caught up with our NHV furriend @charlie.little.rascal to get to know Charlie a little bit better.

Charlie is a 5-year-old pup who’s always active and running around. We met him when his pawrent reached out for support for Charlie’s joint discomfort. He had weakness in his hind legs, a luxating patella, and a spondylopathy. He was having a hard time doing a few movements and since he is such a playful kid, he needed extra support going back to having fun discomfort-free.

Charlie is such a trooper that we felt like it was time to share his story with you all:

Q: At what age did you start to notice that your joints were having issues?

My humans found out about it last March 2019, when I was 4 years old.

Q: What were the symptoms?

I was in pain. I cried and yelped when I would do certain movements. I would just lie down or sit and not move at all. I was so scared to move that it might hurt again. I was advised by my vet to take glucosamine and chondroitin for life. But for my pain, they gave me pain meds.

Q: And how did your human help you?

My mama did extensive research about my condition. She wanted to find a way to make me feel better but in a safer and natural way. She felt pain meds should not be taken long term. And that there was a holistic way to deal with my health issues. Then she read some articles about NHV. Noticed some of my Instagram friends are taking them as well. She was so happy when she found out @judgejudylim uses them and sells some bottles too.

Q: Which supplements did you try?

We ordered Old Timer, Turmeric, and Yucca. Currently, they are the things I am taking to help my joint health: Glycoflex stage 3 and fish oil & vitamin E. I also undergo therapy: electrostimulation to strengthen my muscles and therapeutic ultrasound for pain. I am now pain-free and very healthy.


So there you have it! This little rascal has touched our hearts and he is so special to us. We’re so happy to be a part of his journey and seeing him improve each day is why we love what we do. Charlie’s regimen consists of these NHV supplements:

Old Timer: offers natural support for arthritis, muscle, and joint discomfort. It has anti-inflammatory properties that help alleviate the symptoms associated with hip dysplasia and joint discomforts

Turmeric: is great for overall health and supports heart and circulatory function

Yucca: helps reduce discomfort, inflammation, and helps stimulate the appetite

Milk Thistle: helps to remove chemicals and toxins that can accumulate in your dog’s system
