Herbal help for three adorable Cavaliers with hip dysplasia, luxating patella
Inspiring Pet Tails 4 min readAlthough age is not a disease, there are often changes that come along with age. Many pet parents notice their pup slowing down and not as able or willing to do the things they once did so effortlessly. Dog mom, Deborah, wrote us about her gang of Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. Deborah monitors her pups’ activity using Pet Pace monitors, so it was easy for her to see that her pups were slowing down a bit. CKC Spaniels are very prone to heart disease, so Deborah has them on NHV Hearty-Heart along with other NHV supplements to help keep their energy up. Here are some of the updates we have received from Deborah:
Cooper, Gracie, and Ella are three fur siblings who live with their human mom in Florida. We were overjoyed to receive a happy PUPdate from their mom within the first month of starting their NHV regimens.
These are my Cavalier King Charles spaniels. From L to R: Cooper (10 with MVD & severe hip dysplasia), Gracie (12 with a slight heart murmur), and Ella (7 with moderate hip dysplasia and luxating patella grade 2-3).
I purchased the Rejuvenation Kit for Seniors and Hearty Heart about a month ago and started seeing results within one week. Their activity level was up about 10%. By the end of week 2, their activity level was up about 20% as verified by their Pet Pace monitors. My 10-year-old has severe hip dysplasia and within 2 weeks he was going up and down the back door stairs with no problem. At the one-month mark, I am able to cut back on cold laser hip treatments from every 2 weeks to every 3 weeks. I am very pleased with the products and I’ll be re-ordering.
They have all seen improvement in their joints and increased energy levels. I mix it in their food. I am almost out and am anxious to keep them on these supplements because their energy levels are so much improved.
Update – June 2018
It is quite remarkable how quickly I have seen improvement in Cooper, my 10.3-year-old cavalier since using the Rejuvenation Kit for Senior Pets. It was just a matter of weeks before Cooper showed more energy and less arthritic discomfort in his hips. Cooper has severe hip dysplasia and he is now running up the back door stairs to the house and only needs cold laser treatment about once a month now instead of every other week. Highly recommend.
Update – August 2018
3 Months + on NHV and I have a positive update. Typically in Florida, the dawg days of summer in August bring significantly lower activity levels in my cavaliers, particularly my senior cavaliers. Well, month 3 on the NHV Metabolism Kit has brought INCREASED activity levels (as measured by my Pet Pace monitors). I haven’t seen my Cooper, who is age 10.5 years and is Stage B2 MVD, dance to run outside and play in the backyard multiple times a day in years! All 4 have been more active and I have noticed an increased clarity and alertness in their eyes. Thank you NHV!
Unfortunately, we lost Gracie in mid-October 2019. She passed peacefully while sleeping in her mum’s arms.
How do our supplements help?
The Rejuvenation kit for senior pets offers Old Timer, Yucca, and Multi Essentials together in a money-saving convenient bundle.
Luxating Patella – Yucca extract is a natural anti-inflammatory that also helps reduce discomfort. NHV Yucca is specially formulated to suit pets on a long term
Hip Dysplasia – Old Timer is a blend of herbs that help support hip and joint health. It is useful for symptoms of arthritis and IVDD as well.
Energy Levels – Multi Essentials is a herbal multivitamin that fills dietary gaps and boosts appetite. As a result, it boosts the energy levels of the pets too.
Appetite & Discomfort– Yucca helps to stimulate appetite and ease joint and muscle discomfort
Hearty-Heart is safe for long term use
Heart Murmur – Hearty-Heart has herbs like hawthorn that can help restore normal cardiac function. Heart murmurs are common in middle-aged smaller breed dogs. Hearty-Heart is safe for long term use and works effectively with any vet prescribed medicines too
We are here to help
We are thrilled that Cooper and the gang are benefiting so much from the supplements and they were able to enjoy the Florida summer with their mama! NHV Pet Experts are eager to help put together a regimen for pets of all ages, breeds, and conditions. And we are most excited to receive updates like these. We thank their mom for keeping us updated and reaching out to us for help.

Yucca root is widely used in dog food as well as in other pet foods. It is an herb that is highly nutritive as it is rich in vitamin C, beta-carotene, B vitamins, magnesium, iron, calcium, manganese, protein, niacin, and phosphorus. Yucca contains two very beneficial compounds: sarsasapogenin and smilagenin. These two compounds work on the mucous membranes of the small intestine. These compounds help with the penetration and absorption of minerals and vitamins. Sarsasapogenin and Smilagenin are known as steroidal saponins (phytosterols), which act as precursors to corticosteroids produced naturally by the body.
Steroidal-saponins support the immune function of the body while stimulating and supporting the production of its own corticosteroids and corticosteroid–related hormones. Due to this action, studies conducted on yucca have shown that it may be beneficial and effective for discomfort and inflammation in conditions such as arthritis. Yucca may also be effective as an appetite booster in dogs and may also help reduce the production of urease, which contributes to the unpleasant odors of urine and feces in some dogs.

Hawthorne – the most powerful herb for the heart health of dogs. Hawthorn acts as a cardio tonic, which helps stabilize the heart’s activity based on what a dog’s heart needs; either to be stimulated or reduced. Hawthorn has traditionally been used for heart failure, heart palpitations, heart weakness, and for the circulatory system. This herb works by dilating the vessels and the coronary arteries, which improves the metabolic process and the blood supply to the heart and the rest of the body. Hawthorn may help with dog heart conditions by regulating your dog’s heart rate, coronary flow, and blood pressure. It also has a soothing and sedative effect that helps reduce stress.

It is used as a heart supplement for dogs to regulate blood pressure and to lower the heart rate. It also helps with anxiety, restlessness, and energy. Studies show that the herb Mistletoe has been used for various cancers as well.

Motherwort has been used in herbal preparations to help ease heart palpations and rapid heart rates. It is a cardiotonic, which has traditionally been used to improve blood flow and to support heart health.
