It Started With Macho
I realized what most dog owners discover too late: dogs hide pain until the damage is already done. After a journey finding the simple, proven solution that restored Macho’s mobility, I turned that wake-up call into a mission-driven brand, because your dog won’t tell you something’s wrong. Today, me and Macho help thousands of owners actually see what their dog needs, before it gets worse.
Week 1 - Small Changes
Macho still moved slow, but he stopped arching his back when standing up. He got up a little easier and his legs were not as stiff when he started walking.
Week 2 - Walking Got Better
We could walk for 15 minutes without him limping. Before, he would start limping after just 10 minutes. He also started sitting on his butt again instead of always sitting on his side.
Week 3 - Stairs and Playing
Macho walked up the stairs for the first time ever. He started playing more and we did not have to watch him as closely with other dogs. I noticed he wouldn't limp after playing anymore.
Week 4 - No More Limping After Playtime
Macho played with other dogs and did not limp afterwards. Before, he would always overdo it and pay for it later. Now he could just be a normal dog.
Week 6 - He Jumped on the Couch
Macho jumped on the couch by himself. He had not done that in a long time. He was running, playing, and acting like nothing was ever wrong with him. Basically from this moment I didn't notice any pain or discomfort anymore.

Reviews worth barking about
I thought Bella was just getting older. Then I noticed her standing in front of the couch, she used to jump without thinking. After a few days when I got home, she was waiting on the couch, really happy :)
Max stopped greeting me at the door. I thought he was tired. He wasn't tired. He was in pain it seemed. Three weeks in, he's always waiting for me at the door!!
Cosequin. Fish oil. Prescription meds. Nothing helped Sadie. Still stiff every morning. I almost didn't try again. After 3-4 weeks, she's walking way better.
Vet wanted Lucy on Carprofen daily. $60/month and it can damage kidneys. Switched to The Pawrent. She's moving easier and I don't see any side effects.
No Fuss, Just Happy Bowls
No stress, no waste — just clean bowls every time.
No Sick Tummies, Just Happy Dogs
Macho has a sensitive stomach, so we made sure this formula is easy to digest. 100% pure Green Lipped Mussel and nothing else. No fillers, no junk, no harsh stuff.
Most dogs do great from day one. If your dog has a sensitive stomach like Macho, start with half a scoop for 3 to 5 days to let them get used to it.
Many chews cause throwing up and runny poop. Our pure powder is gentle on the belly and easy to digest.
Created by the Vet who saw Macho struggle
When Macho was diagnosed with arthritis at just 6 months old, our vet helped us create this formula. She refused to use cheap fillers or shortcuts. Every batch is third party lab tested so your dog gets the exact same quality that got Macho back on his feet. This is real vet science, not marketing hype.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to see results?
Most dogs show real improvement within 2 to 4 weeks. Some owners see changes as early as 3 to 7 days. For the best results, we recommend giving the supplement 60 to 90 days. This is because the natural glucosamine, chondroitin, and omega 3s in Green Lipped Mussel build up in your dog's body over time. Every dog is different. Some respond quickly while others need a bit more patience.
Will my picky dog actually eat it?
Dogs love the natural taste of Green Lipped Mussel! Unlike chews or pills that dogs often spit out, our powder simply sprinkles on top of their regular food. It takes about 5 seconds and works with any type of food whether dry, wet, or raw. Most dogs gobble it up without even noticing. Some owners say their dog now waits excitedly for their daily sprinkle!
Is this safe for my senior dog?
Yes, absolutely. Our formula uses 100% pure Green Lipped Mussel powder with no fillers, preservatives, or harsh chemicals. This makes it gentle on the liver and kidneys, unlike prescription pain medications that can cause damage over time. It is also safe for dogs with sensitive stomachs. No vomiting, diarrhea, or gas like you might see with artificial supplements.
What makes this different from other joint supplements?
Most joint supplements use synthetic glucosamine mixed with fillers and binders. Macho's Top Secret Formula uses 100% pure New Zealand Green Lipped Mussel powder. This means your dog gets natural glucosamine AND chondroitin together in the form nature intended, plus omega 3s that fight inflammation. Our powder form also means zero fillers taking up space. More of each scoop actually reaches your dog's joints for faster, stronger results.
Will this actually help my dog or is it just hype?
We understand why you might be skeptical. This formula was developed by a veterinarian and proven on Macho, a dog who developed arthritis at just 6 months old. This exact formula brought him back to being a playful, pain free puppy. The Green Lipped Mussel naturally blocks the same inflammation pathways as prescription pain meds like Rimadyl, but without the harsh side effects. Thousands of dog owners have seen real improvements. Dogs getting up easier, climbing stairs again, and greeting their owners at the door.
My dog is on medication from the vet. Can I use this too?
Our supplement can be used alongside most veterinary treatments. Many owners use it as extra support or to help reduce dependence on prescription pain meds over time. The natural anti inflammatory compounds work differently than harsh medications and are gentle on the body. However, we always recommend talking to your veterinarian first, especially if your dog is on prescription medications.
How do I know if my dog actually needs a joint supplement?
Look for these subtle signs. Does your dog hesitate before jumping on furniture? Do they no longer greet you at the door like they used to? Are they going to bed earlier than normal? Do they seem stiff when first getting up? Are they just slowing down? If your dog's eyes seem less bright or they have stopped playing with their favorite toys, their joints may be causing more discomfort than you realize.
How do I give it and what is the right dose for my dog?
Super easy! Just sprinkle the powder on top of your dog's regular food. It works with dry kibble, wet food, or raw food. The powder comes with a scoop and you simply dose based on your dog's weight. No breaking chews in half. No fighting to get pills down. No guessing. Every dog from tiny Chihuahuas to giant Great Danes can use it with precise, weight based dosing.
