Animal Support

My 85-pound,15-month old Pitbull/Sharpei mix, Gnocchi, was diagnosed with hip dysplasia and a ruptured ACL in his rear leg. I decided not to go the invasive surgery route, which would have been a full hip replacement followed by knee surgery. Instead, I contacted Geo and Monica Chapman, who did extensive research on his condition to provide me with herbs and supplements to help him. Before going to them, Gnocchi could put very little weight on his back legs, needed help to get up steps, and was in obvious discomfort. After only a couple weeks of glucosamine and turmeric supplements, Gnocchi was much more comfortable and even running around the yard. He goes up my three back steps much more easily now and is a noticeably happier dog. Geo and Monica spent as much time with Gnocchi and me as I needed to feel comfortable about his situation and their recommended treatment. I know his supplements will change as does his condition, but there is such a marked improvement in his physical condition and demeanor after only a few weeks, that I am confident Geo and Monica's magic will continue to help him! They are a pleasure to work with and extremely generous with their knowledge, time and good humor. And, they do wonders for people, too!! I am so pleased with Gnocchi's progress and want to thank you both again!
