About Dog Kidney Disease
In humans, the heart is the organ most likely to cause health problems as we age. In dogs, it’s the kidneys. Nobody is quite sure why, but kidney problems are among the top causes of illness and death in older dogs. Two common types of dog kidney problems are:
- Chronic renal (kidney) failure
- Kidney stones
Renal (kidney) failure, as its name implies, is when the kidney fails to do its job, which is to filter impurities out of the blood and concentrate the urine. Acute kidney failure is often the result of ingesting toxins, and is sometimes reversible. Chronic kidney failure sneaks up more gradually, and is a leading cause of death in dogs.
Kidney stones are mineral deposits that from in a dog's kidneys. They irritate the bladder lining and can even block a dog's urinary tract.
Treating kidney disease in dogs
If your dog is suffering from any form of kidney disease, you should see your vet to discuss conventional treatment options. These include intravenous fluid treatment, dialysis (artificial blood filtering), various drugs, and even kidney transplants.
A low sodium diet is often recommended, as high blood pressure often accompanies kidney failure. A reduced protein diet is also often recommended.
Natural, herbal support: Tripsy for dog kidney disease is particularly helpful, especially in combination with traditional treatments. Tripsy contains a unique combination of herbal extracts used to:
- Promote healthy kidney function
- Help guard against kidney infections
- Supports normal urinary flow
- Helps ease the pain and discomfort of kidney stones
Tripsy is a potent formula but is totally natural and gentle enough for long-term use.
Doctor-formulated and vet-approved
Tripsy was painstakingly formulated by a leading naturopathic veterinarian. It is gentle yet effective, without any known side effects.
Does this formula contain any diuretics?
Although an herb may have a slight diuretic effect it is not used as a diuretic in this formula. The combination of the other herbs in the formula help balance out the diuretic effect. For any of these herbs to work as a diuretic they would have to be taken as single herb at a different dosage or would have to be combined with other herbs that also work as diuretics.
Our customers have the final word..
"I am writing to let you know how grateful my family and I are for the Tripsy product we recently got from your website. Our dog Larry is a real member of our family and the kids absolutely love him. Naturally, it is important to keep him healthy.
When Larry was recently diagnosed with kidney disease, it really upset us all. The kids were distraught and thought he would die. After the vet treated him with a fluid therapy, we were put on to Tripsy and hoped it would help in his healing process. As the last few weeks have passed, Larry has been getting better, looking better and even the vet is pleased with his condition. It is great to know that Larry will be himself again. Thank you from us all."

"I did want to Thank You So Much, I am an avid believer in natural supplements for all of my pets. I was at my wits end with my Abracadabra, my faithful 13 year old Shepherd. She was having such difficulty with Kidney Stones, I tried everything the Vet had me to do for her, other than helping her infections from passing the stones and providing some special diet food for her problem, Tripsy was the only thing that helped her, and within a few days.
She also had a brief time where she was trying to pass a stone and I started her up on the Tripsy formula and within days she was able to pass her stone and back to her old self. I even told the Vet that they should look into carrying this item in their hospital.
I am very grateful, and I was wondering do you think that Tripsy might be able to help some of these pets that were affected by the horrible food incident that has touched so many pets and pet owners?"
—Kindest, Warmest Regards, Rhonda in Las Vegas
P.S. I have attached a picture of Abracadabra with one of my cats named Bubba.

"I just want to tell you that my dog Maggie (16 years old) had been sick for about 6 months before I found out about Tripsy. She was diagnosed with kidney disease and was placed on fluids every day. She had good days and bad days, but mostly bad. She wasn't eating, vomiting frequently, having accidents, trembling and had seizures one evening. I thought it was about time to put her to rest until I heard about the Tripsy (which I thought would be a sham since I'm not really into holistic stuff).
After about one week on Tripsy I started to notice a difference. Although she's still not 100%, she seems to feel much better. She's still not eating much and is as skinny as a rail, but she isn't shaking anymore, isn't vomiting (only about once a month), and even has the energy to play sometimes. She still gets her daily dose of fluid in addition to her Tripsy (which I give her twice a day).
Thanks a lot guys! I think you've made the quality of life for my Maggie a lot better!"

"My poodle has been on Tripsy for two weeks now and we have seen such a wonderful improvement. She was on death’s door when we first started giving it to her. She would not eat and didn't want to move around anymore. Now she walks out to use the washroom like normal and she has gained her appetite back. Thank you so much for Tia's second chance."

Comments about NHV Tripsy for Dog Kidney Disease:
My husky had severe kidney failure June of 2009. I found Tripsy and immediately tried the product for her. I use twice daily per instructions for her weight. It's super easy to administer using the eye dropper, and she seems to like the flavor but you can also hide it in their food. I have found no negative effects or problems with this product. It's very effective, she is still with us and doing well at 14 now. It's been a year and a half since the vet told us she wouldn't make it another week and there was no avaiable or effective treatments for an older dog. Meesha is living proof this product works. Thank you Pet Wellbeing!!

Comments about NHV Tripsy for Dog Kidney Disease:
My 9-yr-old Black Lab Beau got into his prescription Rimadyl and ate almost 40 pills. As soon as I discovered I rushed to the doogie emergency room. What proceeded was 7 days of flushing his system because he was going into Renal Failure, but as soon as I started him on the Tripsy he seemed to perk up. After a few days his labs started to improve and at the 2 week check-up he was back to normal. The Vet wanted to know what I was giving him.... She Approved and now I have my Beau back ;o) It has been a month and he seems better than before he had the episode.
Comments about NHV Tripsy for Dog Kidney Disease:
Frankly speaking, I never express my feelings about products I purchase. I buy something, I use it and, regardless of its success or failure, I simply don't offer any commentary. However, I have decided (more importantly, feel compelled) to make an exception in this case. For any of you who have a dog that has been diagnosed with kidney disease and have stressed over the thought of losing your beloved pet, please let me share with you my experience with Tripsy. To begin, I wish to mention that for anyone who would like to talk to me firsthand about what I have personally observed with my dog using this product, I live in North Carolina and you likely can obtain my name from the Petwellbeing folks if they are amenable to providing it. Hopefully, however the following information will be helpful to you. Approximately, one year ago, I brought my dog Ginger to the vet for a diagnosis. She is a chow mix and was, at that time, 13 years old. I love her and her sister very much and it just broke my heart to watch her begin to deteriorate as rapidly as she did. She began to produce a foamy-like vomit that contained blood and stopped eating, was losing weight and became lethargic. I knew something was very wrong, feared the worst, and so I took her to the vet to get the truth about her condition. I was told even before any actual tests were begun that the vet suspected kidney disease due to the fact that the symptoms were so typical of this condition in older dogs. Unfortunately, after a series of tests, blood work, etc., it was indeed confirmed that Ginger had the late stages of kidney disease. The vet informed me that, in all honesty, I should not expect her to live beyond a month on the outside. He told me that there was no point in giving her any of her annual shots as it would really be a waste given her circumstances. I was devastated! I am a 62 year old male and very attached to my two dogs. Both dogs are from the same litter and Pepper, Ginger's sister, although manifesting some early signs of kidney disease, was not anywhere near the stage of failure as was her sister. Not knowing what more I could do, I resigned myself to the eventuality that Ginger was shortly about to close her eyes in permanent sleep. I won't lie to you and tell you that I wasn't truly devastated over this…..to the contrary, I was, and, needless to say, shed quite a few tears over the thought of losing my beloved pet. Sounds silly, I know, but these dogs have been an integral part of our family for all these years and its really difficult not to become attached. (If you don't believe me, just rent the movie "Marley and Me")
In an effort to understand more about Ginger's failing condition, I decided to research kidney failure in dogs on the internet. In the course of doing this research, an advertisement popped up for Tripsy that stated it was intended for use with dogs that were suffering kidney disease. At first, I was somewhat skeptical since, I knew no one personally who had purchased the product for an ailing pet. Nevertheless, in spite of this apprehension, I decided to review a number of the testimonials to see what others were saying about its use on their pets. After reading a volume of these testimonials, I was convinced that they simply could not all be made up and that if the results of its use were that successful, I needed to, at least, give it one try. Frankly, I thought, my dog is certainly worth more to me than the cost of one bottle of Tripsy. So, I went ahead and placed my order and once I received it, followed the instructions on its use and began giving it to Ginger. That was just under one year ago. Well, after I began giving her the product, to my delight and great relief, she promptly stopped her vomiting. Her appetite returned and she started to become active again. We were just overwhelmed by her changed condition. In fact, two weeks ago, I felt it was time to take her back to the vet for a check-up. First, I feel it appropriate to mention that everyone at the vets office were rather surprised to see Ginger. Although, I had hoped that it would now somehow be different, once again tests were run on Ginger and, once again, her blood work definitively identified that she has kidney disease! The Vet, however, just could not explain why Ginger was still alive. He told me that historically, dogs that he has cared for with this late stage of kidney disease die within a month or less when the diagnosis is as Ginger's was a year ago. He told me that he frankly could not understand what has kept Ginger alive this long and, more importantly, is as active as she is in spite of her condition. The scale at the Vets indicated that she has also gained almost 5 pounds within the past year. I told him that I have been giving her a product known as TRIPSY and he said he was going to look it up on the internet personally. His final words to me were "I don't know what's in the medicine you are using, but all I can tell you is, whatever you are doing, keep doing it cause Ginger is doing great!!!" I honestly don't know how many more weeks or months Ginger has left, but, I can tell you, without hesitation, that I cherish every moment she is still alive and with us. On a personal note, I am completely convinced that without using Tripsy throughout this past year she would simply not be with us today! Many thanks go out to the researchers who have developed this product and to PetWellbeing as well as National Health Products for making this available for individuals like me who genuinely love their pets. Your product has given me additional precious time with my beloved Ginger. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!!!!
That's my Ginger!

I really thank you for developing this product!
Comments about NHV Tripsy for Dog Kidney Disease:
I've been giving my 11 yr. old dachshund Tripsy for over a year. She was not doing good at all when I first started and her recovery from renal failure wasn't good. Well, she is still here and I also give her Mellit and Supragland now. She had a relapse so I started with the other products. Her urine is concentrated and she isn't peeing a lot or drinking bowls of water. I must attribute it to Pet Wellbeing products that are all natural. I haven't seen any side effects.
I almost lost hope but I still have my little girl.

Comments about NHV Tripsy for Dog Kidney Disease:
Our three year old australian shepherd/lab mix was diagnosed with acute renal failure and our vet implied that the end was near, or that if she did somehow survive she would have a severely compromised and shortened life. My husband was completely heartbroken and I went online looking for some kind of help. I found this product and ordered it, and we started giving it to her when she came home after a week long stay at the vet (basically to die in peace). Well, I don't know if I can completely credit this product or luck or some sort of miracle, but they tested her blood a week after she came home and her kidney function levels were NORMAL. Tested again two weeks later and still normal. It's been about a month now and she shows no ill effects from her experience and is eating and playing normally. We give her one ml, morning and night.

My 15 yr old beagle had elevated bun, creatine and phosphorus levels with a heart murmur and a little fluid in his lungs. Along with reg medicine I also decided to try Tripsy! All his levels have come down and overall I would have to say I have my SAM back! He is still on subq fluids and we are having trouble keeping food down but we take it a day at a time and am thrilled with Tripsy and the progress Sam is making while on it! HIGH recommendations from ANderson South Carolina!
