Aloha Medicinals - K9 Immunity Plus - Potent Immune Booster for Dogs Under 30 lbs - Certified Organic – Mushroom Enhanced Supplement - Veterinarian Recommended Dog Health Supplement - 30 Chews 2 Pack

Our girl, Hazel, was recently diagnosed with a very aggressive cancer. We had it removed but they weren't able to get clean margins and of course the biopsy was not good news! 2 weeks after surgery we noticed another lump in her incision line and again it was bad news. A friend told me about these chews so we thought we would try them.... Hazel is the sweetest girl and we just haven't had enough time with her! 3 weeks later I'm ordering more BECAUSE the new lump is shrinking by the day!!!! She loves them and we don't have to force her to take them! Even if it buys us 6 months to a year it is better than the 3 months they gave us! Hazel is 6yo weighs 110lbs and she is an American Bulldog/lab mix

The ingredients are rated highly and they may actually help cancer, but 5 different dogs would not touch them--spit them out--and they would just refuse to eat when I hid them in even the richest yummiest food, after the first time. $55.00!!! It's a really sharp herbal odor, with a grainy texture caused by the ground herbs...the soft "meat flavored" chew part does nothing to conceal the overpowering scent. If my dogs weren't already traumatized by cancer and extra trips to the vet, I might be desperate enough to force these into them--but no. I had one dog become afraid of me years ago, from all my efforts to get medications into her--and she died (gently euthanized, but still...) anyway. I bought these once in 2020 for a dog with MCT cancer, and by 2022 had forgotten they were inedible and I'd had to throw them away...so I have spent $110.00 I could not spare on these. They should come with a warning--and I mean that literally. If your dog will eat them, maybe a big dog who wolfs his food, then they may help.

UPDATE:Now a year later, Buck is still cancer free. We moved to at least 6mo of home cooked meals for a large portion of that and used these on protocol treatment. During that time we completely cut out any food that has CARRAGEENAN in it, and used very little processed food (kibble). I now use these as a treat about every other week. He loves them. They have not helped his itchy flaky skin nor his constant ear infections. We've recently again switched dry kibble to Victor which is a non GMO, no soy, grain free, and that seems to be helping with those two issues. I think with all treatment protocols you need to pulse treat - ie on and off treatments. Also look into ARTEMISININ (pharma grade) for pure pulse treatments with NO ANTIOXIDANTS or you are working against the treatment which it's creating those to kill the cells.----------------------------------------------Because its not listed, here is the ingredients:Active Ingredients per 4 Gram Chew:K9 Immunity Blend(tm) 600 mgColostrum Advanced Protein Systems 40 (APS-40) 160 mgEicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) 66 mgDocosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) 44 mgInactive Ingredients: brewers yeast, canola oil, chicken liver flavor, citric acid, fish oil concentrate, glycerin, mixed tocopherols, pectin, propionic acid, proprietary blend (maltodextrin, sodium alginate, and calcium sulfate), rosemary extract, silicon dioxide, sorbic acid, soy lecithin, water, vegetable oil.The two acids listed are omega fatty acids. Fish oil concentrate adds to this. Soy lecithin is a biofuel sludge bi-product that has no nutritional value and potentially harmful side effects - Im not super happy about that or the maltodextrin - I wish they'd move towards a natural cane sugar if they think it needs it - frankly I'm pretty sure my boy wouldn't give a darn if it had no sweetener. The soy lecithin is used widely as am emulsifier in food products. Its GMO, and the hexane extraction process commonly used is a neurotoxin.That said, I DO have faith in this product efficacy. The K9 Immunity Blend(tm) from Aloha is essentially mushrooms, and there is a MASSIVE amount of scientific data on the benefits of this in the system, as well as a long history of its use in Chinese herbal medicine. The added transfer factor improves bio-availability of the nutrients. Aloha uses only organic pharmaceutical grade human quality raw materials and it is 100% American made.Even though Buck (7 yo 126lb lab) eats a healthy, high quality diet, he is suffering from an unbalanced gut which is displaying as skin issues, eye discharge, and a swollen foot pad. I've purchased a 3 month supply and will update this on the effectiveness in treating his issues.

I have a young dog whose immune system has gone haywire. She has repeated episodes of mass inflammation and bleeding from the GI system. The ultrasound shows swelling of the spleen and lymph glands as well, which indicates that the immune system is affected. I purchased this product after months of researching immune MODULATORS. Because when an immune stimulator is given to someone whose immune system is over-reactive, the results are usually catastrophic. This product contains immune modulators derived from a variety of mushrooms, and currently these polysaccharides are the most powerful immune modulators that we know of. Even more powerful that plant sterols/sterolins. Colostrum also contains Transfer Factors, which help the "learning" part of the immune system to learn which substances are a danger to the body and which are not -- transfer factors "educate" the immune system. They enable the immune system to recognize true dangers and to develop the right antibodies.Transfer Factors alone are inadequate to "fix" an out-of-balance immune system, as they only do the educating. Polysaccharides BALANCE all immune cells, stimulating those that are weak, and calming those that are over-reactive. Together, these two products greatly enhance one another's effectiveness.K9 Immunity Plus is a combination of K9 Immunity and K9 Transfer Factors. It also contains some healthy fats, so if your dog has pancreatitis or an illness that demands careful use of fats, you would want to get K9 Immunity and K9 Transfer Factors separately, so as to not have the added fats that are in K9 Immunity Plus.My dog is having endoscopy/colonoscopy/biopsies in a few days, and I look forward to starting her on this supplement when she comes home. For anyone who is desperately trying to save a beloved pet, know that I have tried Colostrum (and will continue with this supplement), Moducare, Western and Eastern herbs, careful, vet-approved, home cooked diet, etc., with my dog. She was also kept on metronidazole, Pepcid, and sucralfate, but continued having flareups and serious bleeding from both ends. The vets are almost certain she has INFLAMMATORY Bowel Disease (NOT IRRITABLE BOWEL SYNDROME, which has much to do with stress, and is not an immune disorder) and it has come down to either euthanizing a great dog at age 20 months, or finding something that will save her.I will update this review regularly. FYI, this also works for humans. The manufacturer makes this product for humans, and it is used to supplement the diets of people and animals going through cancer treatment. UPDATE 12/24/14 -- IT WORKS!!!! 12/11/16 -- Pup continues to do well, but healthy diet and consistency with supplements is key. She has been on the very lowest dosage of prednisone every other day for a year now with no problems.

3 years ago my beloved Monty was diagnosed with an aggressive, very large, inoperable tumour growing through his sinuses, skull and into his brain.The vets gave him days, possibly weeks, to live. I got an emergency referral to Liverpool vet hospital and he was offered a short course of palliative radiation to ease his pain. They thought it may give him another 6 months. I was absolutely heartbroken and desperate to do anything I could for him. I immediately put him on K9 immunity plus, Apocaps given in accordance with the instructions, and changed his diet to organic home made grain free meat fish vegetables and herbs. I also gave him Transfer Point beta glucans, natures aid organic mushroom complex, sevenhills Chlorella tablets and source of life garden organic vitamin d from mushrooms. He had reiki every week and still has reiki. I got him out in the fresh air and sunshine as much as he could manage for natural vitamin d from sunshine and for resting and sleep he has a quiet, comfortable and dark place to sleep as melatonin from deep sleep in a dark environment is naturally very healing.In my experience treating your dog is about doing as many things as you can and getting him off commercial pet food and onto healthy home cooking with these supplements is crucial especially if he is off his food. We faced the worst possible prognosis and he has survived.In documented veterinary history the longest survival on record for his cancer was little over a year with full radiation treatment. Monty is still with me and was first diagnosed 3 years ago. He's cancer free. The vets won't tell you any of the above. I found it all out myself through desperation, research and determination having had my heart broken when I found out he had cancer. Good luck

Max has had so much more zest about him since I put him on this supplement in March and better than that his cancer hasn't come back (he had a lump removed from his leg and the vets didn't think they had clear enough margins when it was removed). I can't say that is responsible for his cancer not returning but in himself he is looking and feeling better which is all I want. Plus I feel like I am helping him and my other options were leg removal or chemo neither of which I was prepared to put him through given his age. Fingers crossed this will keep him going for at least another 2 years.

It is hard to say if they work or not, I use these for my dog as a preventative measure - she has now had mast cell 3 times.She doesn't seem to like them as a treat, so I break them in half and add them to her food. She eats them without issue that way.Due to other reviewers mentioning the low omega 3 fish oil content - I also add x3 1000mg fish oil capsule to her food at the same time as she has these.

Purchased for our family dog to help fight hemangiosarcoma and to keep her system boosted during chemotherapy. Well worth the money, she isn't keen to the taste so hide them in a little ham... But she is a fussy princess! Will definitely be buying another packet!

My giant Schnauzer was diagnosed with untreatable cancer (it metastasized from her toe which was amputated, to her lymphs) and despite her thankfully still being symptom free, I started her on the K Immunity Plus and I think she is a lot more energetic than before. I want to believe that it helps to slow down the rate at which the cancer spreads, but only time will tell. In the meantime, I will keep giving her K Immunity Plus and staying hopeful.
