Steadfast helps with trachea issue 堅定犬幫到氣管縮窄

我4歲的牧羊犬，有時會鳴喇叭的聲.  我們理解可能是因為喉嚨軟骨比較弱導至氣管縮窄. 跟老犬心得討論後，我們決定比佢試 堅定犬, 因為有軟骨素可能幫到氣管軟骨.  神奇地不到1個月, 鳴喇叭的聲已再沒有了. 現在他比以往更舒服. 謝謝. ~ Jeff, 香港

My 4 years old sheepdog sometimes made honking sounds and we understood it could be caused by weak cartilage on his throat and leaded to trachea to narrow/ collapse.  After discussing with Senior Dog Care, we decided to give Steadfast Canine a try as it has choindroitin sulfate which can help strengthen cartilage.  Magically, in less than 1 month, the honking sounds went away and he is more comfortable than ever.  Thank you.  ~ Jeff, Hong Kong
