YuMOVE Max Strength Joint Supplement for Senior Dogs, Joint Care with Glucosamine, Chondroitin and Green Lipped Mussel, Age 8+, 120 Tablets

My very active Cocker Spaniel who is a young 9 years old, hurt her lower spine when she was 3 or 4 and since then has had a small number of repeat episodes, which have gone with rest. Since I got my two Cocker puppies, 5 months apart, my life has disintegrated and there’s very little money available. I buy them the best food I can afford, better than mine, but since 2017 I cannot afford vet appointments or medications and have had to cancel their insurance, too. I’ve been dreading a serious medical incident and a few weeks ago it came out of the blue! She yelped at something when she was right next to me but I couldn’t figure out why. Then nothing more for a few hours until bedtime when she couldn’t jump up onto my bed, which is high. So I lifted her up. Next morning - she was gently squeaking, very unusually for her, just laying in her bed. My heart sank, I knew it must be serious. As usual, I said ‘come on girls, getting up time’ and my other dog leapt from her bed and onto the floor but T didn’t move! Tried persuading her but nothing worked. In the end I had to convince her to come towards me in her bed and I scooped her up in my arms to carry her outside. Now I have MS and I have no idea how I found the strength to do this but as you probably all know, it’s what love can do when it’s essential, so you know how unusual this was! Took her outside, put her down … she just sat on the floor and looked sadly at me! She couldn’t stand up. In the end I held her back end up with my hands under her lower belly for her to have a wee but her legs wouldn’t hold her up. It was completely heartbreaking and she’s never a dog to make a fuss, she’s usually full of beans. So I knew this was bad and I didn’t know what to do for her. I couldn’t afford any more than a check up with a vet and possibly one medication but no more. Plus I have no car and no support so I’d have to pay a taxi to take me and both dogs. Over the course of the day she hardly improved, I became convinced that it was very serious and could be the end for her. I waited until the next day, just desperately hoping she would improve with rest but the next day she was hardly any better and I was losing hope. I suddenly wondered if there was anything she could take to help her. I searched her prescription painkiller drug from the initial injury and it kept bringing up this product - YuMove MAX. I read everything I could find on the product, different variants and reviews. In the end ordered it out of desperation. She’s usually 15-16 kg. So as she was on the cusp of the sizes I decided to give her 4 tablets per day for the double dose as suggested for the initial 6-week period to start. It arrived mid afternoon and I gave her 4 tablets - which she was perfectly happy to take from my hand, although I gave her one and put the rest on her biscuits. They eat Lily’s Shepherd’s Pie (or other lamb/turkey recipe) 3 times per day. By bedtime I lifted her outside and she tottered off for a wee. Incredible! Next morning, Day 2, she got out of her bed and waited at the end of her bed for me and I put her down on the floor - she tottered to the door and I helped her down the few steps and she tottered off to wee etc. Wow! I gave her all 4 tablets with her breakfast. By the end of the day she could just about totter from living room to back door, wasn’t squeaking at all. Woke up Day 3 and she tried to get out of her bed to come to see me as she usually would! I couldn’t believe it! She has improved every day since and she’s back to normal apart from jumping up on the bed. But she’s jumping off no problem. And although she has an occasional back-end-wobble she’s otherwise fine!! I’m completely sold and have already started my other dog on them, although half the dose as she’s 12-13 kg. I’d say to anyone buy the MAX version and see what you think. I’m so impressed and relieved - I truly thought I was losing her. I am now saving for a chiropractor for her to be adjusted. McTimoney chiropractors are really gentle but very effective and there’s one in Lancashire, so that should make a lot of difference too. Don’t discount canine or equine chiropractors because they’re just as good as with humans. Don’t confuse chiropractors with any other therapist! And don’t just take anyone’s word, check they are McTimoney before using! I’ve tried one in Penrith who said he was and said he combined it and did absolutely nothing for me. Good luck!!

This product has made a huge difference to the mobility of my eleven year old Labrador. I was sceptical of the claims but within five weeks she was a changed dog.

We have started using these for our 2 mini Dachshunds over the past 6 months. One of our dogs had spinal surgery and a recurring injury 18 months later which fortunately healed. We have them both taking these tablets following a recommendation from a friend and consulting our vet. Whilst we can't see many changes in our dogs, we are happy to keep taking them as a precautionary measure as they enter their older years to ensure their aging joints are supplemented the best they can be. Only reason for a 4 star is that they are on the expensive side and there was an issue a few months back where we had to dispose of our tablets due to a company wide issue where fake tablets had entered the market which was a real worry. Happy to buy these going forwards only from Amazon or Yumove themselves.

We have been using YouMove for both of our black labs for years now and have always had comments about how active and agile they are for their ages at any stage in their life. My working lab girl is 8 and is as crazy and active as she was when she was 2. She still sprints at a ridiculous speed, swims literally for hours on end in our pool throwing herself over the sides a good 1.4m up in the air and can beat many younger dogs to a ball over a reasonable distance. My show lab boy is 12 and very stockily built (not over weight just very boxy and always has been being from a Drakeshead line). He is what we and anyone who meets him, call Benjamin Button as the older he gets the younger he seems to be and behave. When out, nobody believes he is 12 as he is so active! Usually he is off in the distance trotting and jogging away investigating everything in sight and if he spots another friendly dog we are straight into zooming mode and he will run around in circles for a long time even with puppies! Other dog owners, without fail, will tell him their 10 year old dogs won't want to play as "they are too old for that" and when they hear he is 12 they say they can't believe it. The lady who does his massage treatment once a month also says he has a range of movement she has never seen in a dog his age especially a lab and he has the hamstrings of a one year old! The vets too are amazed by his fitness and movement. Since discovering Max Strength we have definitely noticed an even more noticeable boost in both of them and a lot shorter recovery time when they have done a bit too much and suffer for it the next day (we're talking hours of exercise in one go). I was skeptical at first whether it was worth the extra cost but now I wouldn't consider going back and have reccomend it to so many others. You will almost definitely notice a big improvement on this strength so don't debate it just buy it! Long may all of our doggos remain healthy, happy and full of adventure! Thank you You Move!

I am always very pleased with the results of YuMOVE as I have an increasingly creaky dog, however, be very aware that I purchased 240 tablets which arrived yesterday (3rd January 2026), and notice that they are to be administered BEFORE July 2026. 62 tablets (a quarter of the pack) are, therefore, to be discarded? Very poor value for money!
