One of these dogs just got back from the veterinarian with a perfect bill of health.

But the other is doing something that can lead to inflammation, allergies, bad odors, and even cancer.

Can you tell which is which?

3 Ways To Help Your Dog Live Longer

with America’s Favorite Veterinarian

Dr. Gary Richter

Today we’re talking with veterinarian Gary Richter about what you can do to help your dog live longer…

And not just live longer, but live BETTER.

This includes getting rid of things like

Bad odors

Mushy poop

Itching

Joint discomfort

And most importantly, help them live a long, happy life.

There are enormous number of ways that you can help keep your pets healthy, and get them healthy, even if they’re not in optimal health right now – regardless of their age.

Dr. Richter is the author of the amazing book “The Ultimate Pet Health Guide” and was voted “America’s Favorite Veterinarian.”

Why are so many dogs dying before their time?

It’s an epidemic. Over half of all dogs over 10 years old will get cancer.

This wasn’t always the case. As recently as the 1970s, golden retrievers had an average lifespan of 16 or 17 years.

Today, the average lifespan of golden retrievers is only 9 years.

Why?

Well when you’re talking about good health, the #1 most important thing is nutrition. The second most important thing is nutrition, and the third is nutrition!

My name is Dr. Gary Richter, and I’m a veterinarian who treats animals every day here in Northern California.

I’ve spent much of the last 20 years at not one, but TWO different veterinary hospitals…

The first is the Montclair Veterinary Hospital in Oakland, California, which I’m proud to say has been voted one of the 10 Best Veterinary Hospitals in the United States.

This is where we use Western medicine to perform surgeries, treat disease, and use the most high-tech medical equipment available.

But just 10 minutes down the road is my second hospital… Holistic Veterinary Care, which opened in 2009.

This is where we use traditional practices — including diet, nutrition, and herbal supplements — to keep dogs healthy before they get sick.

When you combine these two schools of thought — East, and West — you get what is called

Integrative Veterinary Medicine

And to me, this has been the key to my extraordinary success in treating animals who nobody else can help.

I’m also the author of “The Ultimate Pet Health Guide,” an international best seller about all the ways we can use nutrition to help our beloved pets.

And I’ve made this video to alert you to something EVERY pet owner must know:

If your dog’s coat is lackluster, if their energy is low, if they’re itchy, if their ears are red, if their breath or poop smells very bad, if their joints ache, if they’re just not doing as well as they should...

These can be warning signs of bad health that get much more serious with age.

And the first thing we want to look at is nutrition.

Now, dog owners, to me, are the most AMAZING people in the world…

After all, they’re going out of their way to care for another creature — 24 hours a day!

And people always ask me:

“Doesn’t “premium” dog food take care of my dog’s Nutritional Needs?”

You would think so, right?

The problem is, most dry and canned dog foods that we get in stores are only meeting the minimum requirements of your dog.

All they have to do is make sure there’s a bare minimum of vitamins in there, basically just enough so they don’t get a vitamin deficiency or scurvy for instance.

So when you see that bag of food that says it meets all these nutritional requirements, what that basically means is “This food won’t kill your pet.”

That’s a pretty low bar! We can do much better than that.

For instance, dog food has zero requirements for omega-3s. Omega-3s are one of the most important aspects of dog and human health, and there’s zero requirements for that.

Outside of essential vitamins, there’s zero requirements for antioxidants. Zero requirements for polysaccharides, which are for immune support. Zero requirements for probiotics, for digestive enzymes.

And the crazy thing is, the food LOOKS healthy on the package. You see all these pretty pictures of meat, of fish, of vegetables, but then you look at the food itself.

You don’t have to be scientist to look at the kibble and say “Um… this doesn’t look like the pictures!”

So what happened?

Basically, the dog food makers take those healthy ingredients and PRESSURE cook them, at a SUPER high temperature, and when it comes out the other end you’ve got this brown mush.

And much of the good stuff has been destroyed.

They need to do this because the food is supposed to last for 2 or 3 years on the shelf, but that means some pretty bad stuff has gotten into the food to make it last that long.

The worst ones are what we call advanced glycation end products.

You won’t find these bad guys on your dog food label, because they aren’t an ingredient… they actually form while pressure cooking the food at high temperatures.

These things cause inflammation — which is the root cause of a lot of bad stuff in your dog, like

Allergies

Flatulence

Problems with their poop smelling bad or being mushy

Itching

Discomfort in their joints

Trouble running around as they get older

And there’s studies showing the glycation end products can even lead to cancer.

So if you’re wondering which of these two dogs is on the road to bad health, it’s the one eating low nutritional quality food.

Another dangerous aspect of pet food is Maillard reaction products, or MRPs. These are also formed by the very high temperature cooking process. They’re actually the chemical that turns dog food brown.

And the crazy thing is, the amount of these toxic MRPs in dog food are up to 122 times higher than what a human has on a daily basis.

122 times higher!

No wonder these dogs are getting so sick. The food we’re giving dogs basically has stuff in it that shouldn’t be there… but just as bad, it’s MISSING stuff that needs to be there for optimal health.

I learned the value of these missing nutritional components first hand, over 20 years ago… and it changed my life forever.

And it was all thanks to a horse — named Sly

The year was 1996.

I was a young veterinary student, eager to learn everything I could about healing sick animals.

And one of those animals was a horse named Sly.

Sly was a beautiful creature, but for some unknown reason, he wouldn’t eat. He had horrible digestive problems. He had no energy.

Sly was literally wasting away before our eyes.

He was hospitalized in an isolation ward, which meant just to see him I had to wear a white gown, mask, gloves, and shoe covers.

Every member of the faculty had tried to treat Sly, but he was getting worse by the day. I felt terrible for him… how confusing it must have been for Sly to be treated by all these strange, mask-wearing people.

At this rate, Sly had only days to live. So as a “Hail Mary” last resort, the owner called in a doctor from outside the school…

A traditional Chinese medicine veterinarian.

This doctor looked almost exactly how I imagined a Chinese medicine expert — a quiet, wise man with a thick Chinese accent.

Now, most of the faculty didn’t have much faith in these ancient Chinese ways. And to be honest, I felt this way too.

But because I was the student on the case, the faculty sent me to observe — and I ended up being the only member of the school who did.

And thank goodness I did.

Because what happened next changed my life.

After gently caressing Sly and analyzing his mouth, stool, and other symptoms, the doctor diagnosed exactly what was wrong with him.

So he prepared a customized mixture for Sly of several herbal remedies that had been used in Chinese medicine — including on sick animals — for thousands of years.

I had never heard of anything he was using — it was all in Chinese —

But I knew Sly couldn’t get any worse. And if there was even a 1% chance it could save his life, I decided to help this doctor any way I could.

Sly couldn’t swallow the herbs, so the doctor and I worked together to gently insert a tube in Sly’s nose so the medicine could get to his stomach.

We did this every day for three days.

And Sly started to improve almost immediately.

Sly became more energetic. He started eating again.

This wasn’t just some lucky coincidence. When I measured Sly’s biomarkers in our lab, I was shocked...

His white blood cell count improved dramatically.

His diarrhea resolved. His weight got better.

Within a week, he was on the mend.

And soon, Sly was sent home… in 100%, PERFECT health!

The faculty was, in a word, stunned.

And so was I. Seeing this beautiful creature restored to health brought tears to my eyes.

Sly’s case changed my life because, for the first time, I saw that Western medicine — while powerful — is not enough…

Don’t get me wrong — Western medicine has saved millions of animals’ lives, and of course millions of people too.

And I completed my education in Western veterinary medicine with honors — and have since become an expert in it.

But what makes me different from many other vets is I’ve also become an expert in what we call holistic medicine… including the types of traditional medicine we used on Sly, medical techniques that have been used effectively for thousands of years.

Fast forward to present day, 2019…

I’ve now spent decades practicing both Western Veterinary medicine and traditional holistic medicine.

And I’m honored these hospitals have been recognized with over two dozen awards, including

Best Veterinary Hospital

Best Canine Therapy Facility

Best Alternative Medicine Provider

And I was humbled to be named

America’s Favorite Veterinarian

by the American Veterinary Medical Foundation.

And because I see dogs at every level of health —

Newborn puppies —

Healthy young dogs —

Adult dogs who have been slowing down —

— and elderly dogs who are suffering, sometimes for reasons other vets can’t figure out —

I know the “warning signs” that show up months — or sometimes years — before sickness actually sets in.

So after everything I’ve learned, what’s the best way to improve a dog’s nutrition?

The thing is, putting your dog on a 100% raw diet is a great idea for getting real meat into their diet, but it’s so expensive, it just doesn’t make sense for a lot of people, especially if you own more than one dog.

And I mean let’s face it, dry food and canned food is easy, and we all like stuff that’s easy.

So we invented something called “Up-Leveling” that solves this problem in a way that’s just as easy.

Basically, the idea is what if we could come up with a powder, and you just sprinkle this on your dog’s food.

And this “levels-up” your dog’s food, without actually changing what food you buy.

So we began working on a powder that could actually do this.

We started with 10 ingredients, then 20 ingredients, and after about a year we ended up with a formula that actually had 40 different vitamins, minerals, nutrients, omega-3s, polysaccharides, immune boosters, everything you need to get your dog’s body working like it should.

I used every single health booster I had discovered over the years — combining the best of eastern AND western knowledge, to create a formula unlike anything anyone had attempted before.

We called this powder Nutra Thrive, and it’s amazing.

It’s basically 40 different supplements in one.

We included not just one or two, but FOUR different probiotic strains — which are so important for supporting digestive health, and getting rid of low quality stool as well as gas.

A healthy dog’s poop should be firm and caterpillar shaped, with a mild odor. If your dog’s poop is mushy, watery, hard to pick up, and smells really stinky… that’s a sign that their digestive health is not up to par, and they could really benefit from probiotics.

And I added three separate amino acids — these are the building blocks of protein and VITAL to your dog’s health.

I even included digestive enzymes — which help your dog break down food, leading to less flatulence, incidents of constipation or diarrhea, and stool odor.

They even help with bad breath, if you’re constantly having to brush your dog’s teeth, a lot of times digestive enzymes is the root cause of bad breath.,

So we’ve packed Nutra Thrive with four different types of odor-fighting enzymes.

And we’ve got some compounds in here that frankly, you’d be hard pressed to find a human supplement with ingredients this high tech.

Like Crominex, an incredible 3-part compound that can help dogs with joint discomfort by supporting healthy joint function and mobility.

Older dogs especially… if you see them limping, or even just not running around as much as they used to… they still WANT to run, but they probably don’t because it hurts too much.

That’s where Crominex comes in.

And studies show it can provide SIGNIFICANT support for healthy triglyceride and cholesterol levels.

It even helps support brain health.

We’ve got Vitamin D, which is vital for health in dog’s kidneys, bones, and even heart health.

We also included eastern and herbal superfoods that you won’t find in almost any other dog food or supplement.

That includes not one or two, but 3 types of mushroom — including the “longevity mushroom,” known as reishi.

Reishi mushrooms have been prized in Japan for centuries for the health benefits they can provide human users, but recently a ton of western clinical studies confirmed their amazing health power, particularly in immune health and longevity.

This is so important as your dog gets older. Immune health IS health.

And the healthier your dog’s immune system, the less time they’ll spend at the veterinarian's office!

Mushrooms also help with a whole host of problems, including joint discomfort, shortness of breath after playing, and even occasional allergies.

I mean, most humans don’t get three types of mushroom a day! So this is really a gamechanger.

Practically every single thing you can think of that’s important to your dog’s nutritional health, these 40 ingredients were designed to help.

Just listen to what our users are telling us about their dogs once they started taking Nutra Thrive:

Judith told me:

It did everything it’s promised to do, we’ve used it for a couple months and definitely see the difference [in] our girl.

So happy to hear that Judith, you both look great!

Amy says:

Magic Dust!! This product is really a miracle in a jar. Our [...] 12 year old Lab suffers from back discomfort. After just 3-4 days of Nutra Thrive she sprang to life, walking and “running” without hanging her head, with her tail up and wagging. [...] She has regained a quality of life I thought was on the ebb. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, and Bobby thanks you too!

Christopher Baker wasn’t sure at first, but listen to what he saw with his dog:

My 7 year old male yellow lab was lethargic and rarely would even get up to [greet] us when we came home. Now less than one month later you would think he was transformed back into a puppy. Our Lab was constantly licking his paws raw, and hasn’t touched them since. I’m as skeptical as anyone when it comes to any new “wonder product”, but now I’m a believer!

Chris your Lab looks terrific.

And this is just a small sample of the hundreds and hundreds of photos and emails we’ve gotten from Nutra Thrive users.

When I hear about the wonderful transformations that dogs experience when they take NutraThrive — and see their smiling faces in photos — I know that all the hard work and time we spent perfecting this formula was worth it.

And the reason why I worked so hard on this is that my dogs aren’t just pets. They’re literally my best friends.

They give me so much unconditional love, they play every day with my daughter, they snuggle with my wife and I when we’re having a bad day. They’re a part of the family. We love them so much.

So to me, when I give them Nutra Thrive with their meal, that’s just my way of saying thank you.

I want my dogs to be healthy and happy for years and years to come. I want my dogs to be around when my daughter graduates college.

And I know I can help this happen, if I up-level their nutrition so their bodies are in tip top shape.

And it’s not just for my dogs. It makes me feel good, every time I feed them. I can see it in their faces, cause they know they’re now getting all the good, healthy stuff they need to be happy.

So I would tell anyone who’s interested in keeping their dog healthy, in getting rid of a lot of these nagging issues, greasy or lackluster coat, constant itching, smelly breath or odors, there’s ingredients in here designed specifically to help with all these things.

Now you’re probably wondering how your dog can try Nutra Thrive.

Actually, Nutra Thrive isn’t available in stores.

You could probably go buy all these 40 ingredients in stores or online, but you’d be spending hundreds of dollars a month.

I know, because I used to buy most of them myself!

And they’re fantastic for your dog’s health, but that’s a lot of money.

So we wanted to come up with a way to make this formula easy to use, and also AFFORDABLE.

My distributor tells me that when Nutra Thrive does go to stores, it will retail for around $69.95.

Which is a lot cheaper than buying these 40 ingredients separately. Plus, you get them all in one simple scoop!

But if you watched this entire video online, I know you’re serious about your dog’s health, and you don’t want to wait months or years for this to be in stores.

So we’ve worked out a special deal that allows you to order this formula directly from us, and see all the AMAZING results for your dog… right now.

So if you order Nutra Thrive today, you’re not going to spend hundreds of dollars on these powerful ingredients. You won’t even spend $69.95.

Because you’re ordering from us with no middle man, we’re able to dramatically lower the price of Nutra Thrive to just $49.95.

That’s $20 off the retail price.

But that price is only for people who watch this video presentation, and only while supplies last.

When this page closes, Nutra Thrive will only be available on our website for the regular price of $69.95.

And we’ve been getting such great feedback on Nutra Thrive, people are asking for a lot more, because they see the effect this has on their dogs and they want to give it to friends and family pets as well.

So if you order our discounted packages of 3 or 6 jars, you save even more. Up to $165 off the retail price, which is incredible.

That means right now, you can spend as little as $1.27 a day to give your dog the gift of great health.

When you think of the hundreds of dollars people spend on veterinary bills, or thousands of dollars on costly surgeries, that’s so expensive for owners and so painful for dogs.

And yet in many cases, a lot of these veterinary problems could have been avoided by simply giving dogs proper nutrition. I see it every single day.

When you see some of these horrible health issues, that’s just the END STAGE of something that’s been going wrong for years.

Right now, your dog could be on the road to poor health. So why not make a simple decision to help give their body the boost it needs?

That’s why we created Nutra Thrive. To keep your dog healthy, so you can both stay out of the veterinarian's office and keep your dog’s body working RIGHT… the way it’s supposed to.

I know a lot of dogs are finicky about food, so we actually found a way to flavor Nutra Thrive like bacon. My dogs are REALLY picky eaters, and even they love Nutra Thrive.

But even more important than the taste is the transformation your dog can experience once they get the right superfoods in their diet.

You WILL notice your dog has:

Better smelling breath and poop

Shinier coat

A happier mood, like they’re suddenly feeling years younger

And I’m so sure you’ll see these changes, every jar of Nutra Thrive comes with a 90-Day, Money-Back Guarantee.

That means you can use every drop, and if your dog doesn’t love it, if you don’t see all the same things our dogs have, the glowing coat, fewer bad odors, more energy, just a healthier dog…

Then send it back for a full refund, even if it’s just the empty jars. That’s how confident I am this is going to be a life changer for your dogs.

Look, I’m a veterinarian, I’ve spent my entire adult life researching the best, healthiest ways to improve canine health.

It takes a lot for me to put my name on something, I have to really believe in it.

With Nutra Thrive, I’m just so proud of this formula. These 40 ingredients, in one simple powder, there’s nothing else like it available. Anywhere.

You don’t want a dog that’s achy, that’s got digestive discomfort and odors, that has low energy, that’s basically losing their happy mood and personality.

You want a dog that’s thriving, that feels good, that wants to run up and kiss your face because they know you’re taking the best care of them that you can.

So I hope you can give this gift to your dog, and give them the nutritional health they deserve.

And give yourself the gift too, so you can sleep easy, knowing you’ve done this special thing for an amazing furry friend that you really would do anything for.

Because they’d do anything for you.

So to me, this is how I repay that.

Congratulations on watching this video, and let me be the first to welcome you to the Ultimate Pet Nutrition family.

By taking this step to give your dog the best nutrition they can get, you’re being such a fantastic guardian to your dog.

As someone who works with dogs every day, I can tell you, they understand how much you love them… and they appreciate it!

To your dog’s health,

I’m Dr. Gary Richter
