Just wanted to say how well vit C worked for my dog. He had suffered from hip dysplasia as well as a large tumor in his front right 'shoulder'. I began giving about 100mg's of Vit C (Calcium Ascorbate)3 times daily. Within 2 days, his improvement was dramatic. He started running again (he's 12 yrs old)and wanting to 'play' again. Not to mention how shiny his coat is. I increased his dose slowly to about 500mg's 3 times daily. When he got diarrhea, I backed off the dose a little until it stopped. This is backed up by studies done at 'The Best Friends Animal Sanctuary in Utah' by Vets, in over 100 case studies (they used Ester C). Although it doesn't 'cure' hip dysplasia, it allows the dog to lead a normal, pain free life, not to mention make them a much healthier animal.Replied By Robyn (Ojai, Ca) on 02/26/2011
Will this work for elbow displasia as well, for my 8th month year old basset hound?Replied By Carrie V (Palmdale, Ca) on 07/06/2015
My dog was diagnosed with hip dysplasia. He has been limping around for months. I found this post and decided to give Ester C a try. He has gone from limping to running around again, what a blessing. Thanks for your post!Replied By Kathy (Louisiana) on 10/05/2017
