Bovine Colostrum

I adopted a dog who's gut was way out or whack and he also has some allergy issues. I've used Colostrum in the past to help with itch relief, skin and gut health so I knew it would help this dog. I also trust Raw Paws since I've been buying their products for years now. There quality of products is very high.

I am really surprised at this. I have only been using this for about 3 weeks and already see a difference in my 2 elderly dogs who are both 14 years old. I actually give them less than is called for. There was no scoop in the jar as many others have also said. I just use a small measuring spoon and measure out 2 small spoons of the product (1 for each dog) and mix it in with their canned chicken and rice that they get at supper every night. There is apparently no taste or smell to it since I have the 2 pickiest dogs on earth and they didn't even sniff the chicken as they would normally do when anything is added to it. Gizmo has arthritis in his hips and spine and usually has trouble walking because of it. He is now back to getting up just fine and walking just fine. He also seems a lot more alert and peppy. He is also no longer whining if I touch his hips. Tashi is full of energy and jumping around like he used to do. I am truly amazed at the difference they are both showing in a very short amount of time, especially since I am using less than called for. I used less because I was afraid it might upset their tummies or they would not like it but it hasn't upset their tummies and what I am giving them seems to be the right amount. So thankful I found this product. I will definitely be ordering more. Next order would be nice if it had the scoop in it like it is supposed to have.

I would give 5 stars but there was no scoop, I really dislike when there isn't a scoop designed for the product dosage included w/purchase. Based on comments it seems to be a common theme hit or miss w/the company leaving out the scoop. W/the complaint over, I have to say this colostrum has been very helpful to my animals. The cats love it. One cat tries to eat it directly out of the jar. Their coats seem shinier, and they seem more alert...or something. I was hoping it would help my one cat w/vomiting issues, but so far that hasn't happened. I am still giving it some time. My dog will eat it mixed in w/his food, apparently it doesn't have a bad taste or smell to him, and he is one picky guy, so I am thrilled I can get something helpful in him w/out a battle. As w/any new product I introduced it slowly, and I am still not using the recommended serving for him. My dog has had digestives issues for months, we have done diet/food changes, fought over eating probiotics etc. and nothing was really helping. At first the colostrum seemed to give him a little diarrhea, but to be fair it is hard to say because he was already having trouble w/loose stools but yet being constipated at the same time. Anyway, it has been a month now of using this product and I am happy to say for the first time in a long time my dog is having a decent somewhat normal poop w/out struggle. A good poop means everything! It has to be the colostrum because it is the only new thing I have added to his regime in a while. Also need to add he is an older dog w/other health issues. Over the last few days I have seen little boosts of energy and perks of happiness I have not seen in him in a while. He wants to chase the ball! I really like this product, but I do recommend starting gradually using less to introduce it to your pet. It is a golden color, light, fluffy, a little is going a long way w/three animals. No complaints for the quality and price. It definitely seems to be doing some good. I am happy to have found something that is helping my critters after spending ridiculous amounts of money of things they refuse to eat to get them through the aging process. Now please, do not go changing anything, when you have a good product and price leave it alone so you will get repeat customers.

Great product so far and my dog is doing well with it. I can't say if it has helped yet since she also gets a mushroom powder in her food too. My ONLY complaints about this are 1) the microscopic text on the jar - how the heck is anybody supposed to be able to read text this small? And 2), yes, there IS a little scoop inside. But it is buried so deep, don't even bother trying to fish it out! If you DO attempt to fish it out, hold the jar over your pet's bowl because the powder is going to go EVERYWHERE, and this stuff is too expensive to lose any! I got sick of the mess every day so I finally just got some painter's tape and taped the scoop to the top of the lid, and now I keep it in the fridge like that. Works better and no more mess. Thanks!

I bought this for my granddog because she was a constant paw licker. This colostrum stopped the licking almost immediately. My son wasn't sold on the colostrum until he moved out, and after 2 months of not giving her the colostrum, he said she was constantly licking her paws. I asked if he was giving her colostrum he said no. I told him, Well, there you go, She needs the colostrum daily in her food. He finally agreed. Worth every penny. Make sure you use the amount of colostrum for the weight of your dog.

I haven't seen a change in my dogs health or allergies.

Use it for my two elderly cats. I think it has improved their coat and made them healthier. We paired it with collagen. Both of the cats look much better and maybe even younger.. One had some allergies that appear to have improved. I think it’s given them back some vitality. I would recommend.

This product smelled rancid after about 2-3 days. One dog didn't want to eat her food and then vomited afterwards for two days until I quit giving her this product. Another dog wouldn't eat for three days (he's already ill with cancer, so we thought he just didn't have an appetite). Once the smell of the product became more rancid and we quit giving it to the second dog, he ate fine. The only reason I didn't initially think it was because of a bad product, is because a third (apparently iron-gut) dog ate fine and had zero reaction.
