It works
This is the very best high calorie supplement that i have found for my black lab. it works, she loves the taste, I put a big portion on a spoon and she will lick it away. Her coat looks shiny and wonderful as well. She has no diarrhea at all. It so easy to use and the cost isnât bad at all. It a great way to supplement more vitamins and calories at the same time.

This was a life saver â¤ï¸ððââ¬ï¸
So I had a litter of 5 kittens and they were dying back to back and I was heart broken so I was down to my last two babies and the mom stopped feeding and they stopped eating and i wasnt about to lose anymore babies… I needed help I reached out to my local vet and they recommended me this and given me two tubes and when I tell you my kittens was sick and was border line this brought them back it helped them grow and kept them nourished they turned out to be healthy babies I’m telling yall this story so if you ever get to that point and don’t know what to do and are new to nursing kittens or puppies from one to another this changed my life and helped my babies fight to keep there’s I hope this helps you all and I recommend if you ever run into rescuing babies even if they look healthy buy and give it to them so you don’t come to any point of risks and if you don’t know how to feed them the small syringes one a piece for each kitten I filled up to full and gave it to them every 2 hours with the formula and even when they went to soft food still given it to them I didn’t stop pulling them back from it till they reached hard food and they will take it easy they absolutely love the taste â¤ï¸â¤ï¸â¤ï¸â¤ï¸â¤ï¸ the babies in the photo the one on the left (black) and right (white) are living proof and are the ones I’m talking about in the story I even given it to my middle baby too anyways I hope this helps you like it did me â¤ï¸ðââ¬ï¸ð

This works!
I really do not write reviews on products from Amazon but this gel works great! I have an older american bulldog/pit mix who stopped eating, became listless, and i was worried maybe I needed to put him down like maybe this was time. However I wanted to try something to seeif it helped before that route. At first i had to force feed this to him. I would put a blob on my finger, lift his lip, and wipe it on his gums and teeth. Within hours there was noticeable improvement. Appetite increased and gradually improved to back to normal! I stopped use and things were fine. This week, some same symptoms emerged. Used that gel and this time he ate off my finger no issues. Back to normal. Helps perk him up and back to eating his food. He is a picky eater and picky about supplements so this is a total win.

This saved my DOG! She was refusing food. NOW she’s eating again!
Miracle supplement! I thought my dog would die, She had always been finiky, since a year ago I have been having to feed her because she wouldn’t self feed, then last week she started refusing to eat. I force fed her and that worked a few days until she started spitting out the food I put in her mouth, then she stopped drinking water! I thought I would lose her. This product made her eat again! (I had taken her to the vet and all he said was she had digestive problems and for me to giver her oatmeal which I did) She licked the stuff i squirted from the tube slowly off a spoon and it seemed to make her a lil stronger in just a few hours, By the next day she was more lively and eagerly licked this off the spoon and told me she was HUNGREY! she does this by bringing me a treat she hid and that means she wants food (she’s a super smart Chihuahua) This gave her her appetite back! second day she ate a little food and i didn’t have to force feed her. I gave her one teaspoon the 1st night, 3 teaspoons the next day (one a half hour before each meal) and then I waited a half hour before i tried to give her any food. By the third morning she was no longer listless and she was running and jumping and looking for hidden treats to eat. She ate great! By the fourth day the sparkle is back in her eyes and she is acting like her old self again. I will always make sure I have a tube of this on hand. I changed her to an organic, grain free, high quality food. I also give her a half cup of cooked oatmeal per day to which i add diced apple and a squirt of organic honey. She has had chronic pancreatitus, I give her a digestive enzyme 5 min before meals too. Over time the pancreatitus damages the pancreas and makes it hard to digest food, eventually they get very little nutrients from food and waste away even though they are eating, then they lose interest in food which is what happened to her. This product is awesome and worked wonders! I highly reccomend it.

Noticed a difference in my cat within the first week. Was giving her a small marble sized amount mixed in with a tiny bit of warm water to melt it, and then mixed into her wet food each meal, for about 3 or 4 days. We went to a family member’s house and I forgot it, and within two days noticed that she was less interested in her food.Went home to get it and her appetite picked right back up. I truly believe this has been a contributing factor in her staying as alert and active as she has been, while she’s been sick. She’s an absolutely tiny little thing that cannot afford to lose any weight, so having this available has been great.Be forewarned though, open it with the lip end upwards as it comes out and it’s sticky as honey and gets everywhere hahaha. I open it upwards, then tip it over her dish and use a toothpick to cut it off and then tip it back upright and re-cap it. Otherwise you get strings of it that fly around, like you would with honey.

Would never use anything else as a supplement or provide dog if off food. Fabulous product and would not recommend anything else.

We adopted an 8 year old Sphynx in poor health. He was thin , a fussy eater and had vomiting issues on and off since he was a kitten with no issues found . My vet wanted to start from the beginning so started with a deworming , not a great start. The medication made him worse and he lost a pound in a week and was eating very little and that was with constant encouragement. He dropped to a little over 5 lbs and was just skin over the bones . He had done this a few years back according to his vet papers. Tried this product at night , the next morning he was ravenous. He now wants to eat everything in site, and several times a day. He will steal the dogs food tries to steal ours , we can’t keep him full. It won’t be long before our boy gets some meat back on these bones …. Results were immediate, I was doubtful but I strongly recommend this if you have a pet who has a poor appetite.

I bought it for my two elderly cats. The fussy eater loved it but the male only sniffed at it. I believe it helped with the females appetite.

This product is a must for toy breeds and infirm dogs. The slow releasing action of the molasses is a life saver.
