Pets on peptides. (PETides)
-
My Shitzu is almost 14 and we are noticing a decline in his stamina and conditioning. He's not over weight but we think he is just getting old and looks like he could be getting arthritis by the way he is coming down and goes up stairs now.
He's 11 pounds anyone know a good rporotcol for vitality?. I've been thinking BPC-TB500 and maybe kpv or just those two. how small of a dose do little dogs need?
@bfuller I actually went a slightly different route with my dog Kodah. He’s about 20 lbs and instead of buying BPC-157 and TB-500 separately, I decided to try KLOW after seeing quite a few people online talking about using these peptides with their pets.
The KLOW I have is an 80mg blend reconstituted with 3mL, and I’ve been using 2 units 3x a week.(the pet dosage calculator I found online said 1ui) I bumped it to 2ui to assure a proper dose considering all the fluff. I went with KLOW because it already contains BPC-157 and TB-500 along with GHK-Cu and KPV, so it seemed like a more complete option rather than buying everything individually.
They also sell Wolverine, which is specifically a BPC-157/TB-500 blend, and that may be closer to what you’re already considering.
Obviously I’m just sharing what I personally decided to try with Kodah and experienced success with. The wolverine blend may be less spicy. My little dude doesnt seem to notice though.

@Juliano546 thanks for the feedback, what were his symptoms before and what have you noticed that has improved?

@bfuller He developed arthritis in his back hips pretty young, so I’ve had him on glucosamine/chondroitin for years, but he was still steadily declining with age.
About 3 years ago he suddenly became paralyzed from what we assumed was a compressed nerve. We were told he’d never walk again, but we refused to give up and eventually got him back on his feet.
More recently he was really slowing down—laying around a lot, legs shaking at rest, struggling with the 4 stairs to our porch, and an exciting or active day could mean 2–3 days of sleeping and recovering.
We’re about a month in now and the difference has been pretty spectacular. His stance is broader and more solid, he gets up from laying down much easier, and yesterday he actually had me jogging on our walk
. It wore him out for a day, then he was right back at it.He still occasionally waits for help up the stairs, but I’d say that’s decreased by at least half. I’m not claiming a cure or recommending it for anyone else’s dog, but for Kodah, I’m extremely happy with what I’ve observed so far.

I am officially a believer
This is a nearly 17yo toy poodle/maltese terrier cross who despite her age was extremely lively until did both acl’s within a couple months of each other 2-3 years back which severely effected her just 3 weeks into KLOW.The change is nothing short of fucking miraculous.

https://dai.ly/xb3ihoy@STATIEEIGHT look at her go!! Right on! She is owning that field. Its truly amazing that we have found things that work well for us and now we can translate that to our furry friends. Happy to see the success with pep 🥹

100% - before the acl’s she would routinely walk the fence line but for the last couple of years after the ops would only walk 5-10m past that concrete line to do her business then come back.The difference only 3 weeks in is pretty amazing.
And every day now she goes further - I think she’s testing herself on what she’s found she can actually do again now.This is a dog that has slept under my arm every night for 17 years & in reality only has a couple years left in her so it literally brings a tear to my eye seeing her actually enjoying herself running just for fun again.
She’s currently up to 7 laps in the morning now with each lap approximately 150-200m.Won’t say I didn’t shit myself more than for almost anything else I’ve done to myself or others giving her that 1st pin though but reasoned that the possible benefits at this point in her life was worth any possible risk.

@STATIEEIGHT This is actually incredible to read. 17 years old and going from barely wanting to walk beyond the concrete to running 7 laps just because she wants to is a pretty amazing change, especially in only 3 weeks.
I completely understand being scared giving that first pin. When they’ve been beside you that long, you’d do just about anything to give them more quality time, not simply more time.
Seeing her rediscover something she clearly enjoys has to make that decision feel worth it.
Stories like this are really interesting to follow, especially with an older dog where the change is so noticeable. Actually living out the golden years gracefully

Yeh - if I read this on the net & saw the vid I’d call bullshit to tell the truth especially in only 3 weeks but seeing it with my own eyes well………
️I think once she regains a bit of the muscle especially in her back legs she’s lost over the last couple of years she’ll only get better

@STATIEEIGHT It’s like one of those infomercials, except the shit actually works
. But yeah, I think you have something there. It seems like the KLOW takes the edge off enough that they’re willing to move more frequently, and that increased activity starts contributing to better overall health on its own.I’ve noticed my pup progressively losing his gut over this last month too. The increased activity is probably contributing, although I’ve wondered if the KPV could be playing some part as well.
I’m expecting the biggest difference once some of that lost muscle has been rebuilt. The final test for me will be cycling it and seeing how they respond once they’re off it for a while. That should give a much better idea of how much of the improvement is actually being maintained versus how much depends on being on the protocol.
