Guest guest Posted November 11, 2003 Report Share Posted November 11, 2003 NOW brand is a great brand. Very pure in their herb formulations and good stuff maynard. { I have an older sister, she used 'maynard' a lot, I'm still a bit young for it, right on the cusp, so-to-speak, as my hubby is on the cusp of being a boomer} <G> Warm regards, Janine Phariss www.BlueSageNaturals.com Unique & Innovative Herbals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 11, 2003 Report Share Posted November 11, 2003 Hi, Debra My lab weighs about 70-75 lbs. (thanks to too many steroids), and we give her about a teaspoon every morning, stirred into her food. She's on canned food only (poor girl!) because of her allergies, and I put a tablespoon or so of hot water on the powder and stir it in with her first half can in the morning to help with the taste. I don't know if it tastes bad to dogs, but MSM is kinda bitter to me. It has helped her beyond belief.
