    Our dog has been wearing a bioflow collar for 6 years, I didn't tell my husband I had bought one, but he commented how perky she was so do think they work. I would say it isn't enough on it's own though and she has her supplements.

    She is funny with her esther-c, she takes everything no bother, but has decided she isn't taking them any more and spits it out of her bowl so I'm giving her a rest from it. Regarding dosage I read if it gives them loose stools you are giving too much, quite a bit of info online.

    The most effective supplements for her I find are devil's claw and Glyco flex lll, I try other stuff as well, but those are the ones I wouldn't stop.

    Can anyone tell me how long are those biocollars supposed to last/keep working?

    Do they get affected in any way if dog swims in them too?

    Just found Zara's one and wonder if it is still any good..hmmm

    Not sure what restrictions you have on feeding as only skimmed over the thread but I have a 30kg staff x lab, he has a weak achilles tendon, cannot run at full stretch, cannot play ball, struggles with stairs etc. One of the best things I found was a dry food called Symply available from Pets Corner (shop or online), the difference in him was amazing. Unfortunately he's had to come off the food now as he got liver/kidney problems (not related) but I would definitely recommend trying it. Its not cheap but they do have a money back guarantee.
