This is Meg. Meg is a Border Collie and she's about seven years of age. Angie and Steve have noticed that there was something wrong with Meg. She was constantly limping and wasn't as active as she used to be. They have decided to have Meg checked by a vet who immediately prescribed several injections and pills. Angie and Steve noticed that the prescribed treatment did not work and Meg was still limping.

Rebecca has been giving her six year old Labrador Toby Bionic Biotic for more than six months now. Toby has been suffering from numerous problems: from constantly upset stomach and ear infections to occasional seizures. Rebecca's vets concluded that Toby had epilepsy and were going to put him on epilepsy tablets. This wasn't something that Rebecca wanted to do.
Rebecca started doing research and discovered Bionic Biotic. After giving it to Toby she noticed that the supplement started to give him more energy, better digestion and the dog started to feel much better. In addition to this Rebecca also learned about wheat allergies and she soon discovered that it was not epilepsy that was causing the seizures, but wheat allergy that Toby had. She decided to change Toby's diet and give him Bionic Biotic. In less than six months he was no longer suffering from seizures and only once he had upset stomach.

This is Baz. Baz is a rescue dog who had been abandoned in a car park near an RSPCA shelter. He was underweight and stressed when Emma brought him home in February. His coat was thin and dull. He's been having Bionic Biotic and has put on 1.5 kilos. His coat is now shiny and much fuller. Nobody who meets Baz can believe he was abandoned, he's such a gorgeous and loving little staffy.
It's Monday and it looks like the summer is finally back! It's 27c in London and it looks like the rest of the week is going to be pretty hot too. While we are out enjoying clear skies and great weather it is important not to forget about our four legged friends.
Each summer Kennel Club, UK’s largest organisation dedicated to the health and welfare of dogs, receives hundreds of reports of dogs being lefts in cars, and many incidents where dogs die from heatstroke as a result. To promote the seriousness of the issue Kennel Club has produced a three minute video called Don't Cook Your Dog and this is something that every dog owner should watch. It shows how simple it is for your dogs to overheat in hot environments.

I've been feeding my Lab Bionic Biotic for over two years now and when I got my second dog I also started giving it to her and they're flourishing on it.Whenever I meet anyone on our dog walks with dogs with tummy trouble, skin problems, joint issues etc. I always recommend Pooch & Mutt products as I think they've done wonders for my two!

lab and Radar 1 year old Hungarian Vizsla.)
Vegas was diagnosed with arthritis at the age of 1. His owner Catherine has fought with him for 3
years, struggling to try and administer seraquin tablets on a daily basis. Vegas loves the taste of Mobile Bones and he is normally only interested in chicken or cheese!
He is now on his regular consistent dosage of Mobile Bones, it helps greatly and he has no “off” days.

This is Bear, a Springer Spaniel with Itchy Skin. His owner Debbie got Bear and his springer sister Smudge from a rescue centre at the beginning of March.
They had both been in kennels for 14 months due to their previous owner being seriously ill.
Poor Bear suffered with dry skin and was constantly scratching. At first Debbie thought it may be that he was finding it hard to adjust to central heating in a house after so long in outdoor kennels. Eventually she took Bear to the vet, and after some heavy medication he was doing better.
Debbie was concerned that it may start over again and so decided to see if she could find something to combat the dry skin and she came across Salmon Oil.
Debbie gives Salmon Oil daily to both dogs and it has improved their coats and helped Bear's scratching a great deal.
