Vet Review – Dr Claire Wade
I highly recommend Farmers Mate for Pets to my clients with dogs recovering from injury & surgery or when managing arthritis.
The bone-broth base seems to assist with tissue repair along with overall health.
My recommendations began after I noticed significant improvements in my own old dog’s mobility after just a few days on Farmer’s Mate For Pets.
Now all my dogs are on it daily.
