Platinum Performance
Testimonial from Fan of Both Radio Shows
Hey folks - If you don't believe me, here's a testimonial with photos from one of my most devoted listeners to both radio shows!
Hi Tracie,
I just wanted to drop you a line to let you know Platinum Performance Plus has been doing wonders for my Doberdiva, Baby. She's going to be 12 years old on April 28, and has some pretty nasty arthritis going on in her neck/ spine. Her back end slants like a poorly bred GSD, but she's still playful and functioning well, and a lot of that is due to the Platinum Performance Plus you recommend on your radio show. I have no doubt about that. Before Baby was on PPP, she was in much worse shape. She's been taking it now for over a year. And if not for you, I would not have known about this wonderful supplement. She had been on Arthimaxx for 3 months prior to your getting us hooked on PPP, and that other stuff did not help at all. So it was just amazing to find a product that works so well. And the customer service from the Platinum Performance people is top notch. I called them to discuss Baby's dosage the first time I ordered the product. She needed to be on a therapeutic dosage, which is more than the label suggests. Heather, the rep I spoke with, called me a few weeks after having talked to them to see how Baby was doing! That was remarkable, and proved to me how well they support and stand behind their product.
I got another bucket last week, and wanted you to see this. I remove the contents and put them in freezer bags, which I store in the fridge. Baby stood by me and barked the whole time. She smelled it! It's very appealing to her nose and palate. I gave her the bucket when I finished, and she cleaned out the residue. And what she missed, she got on her head. :-) Dudley, another member of Fort Doberdale, helped out with cleaning off the lid. And when they finished, I cleaned up and plopped the lid back on because we even use the bucket! It's great for when I'm cleaning Kongs. I have enough buckets to wash, rinse, and store, store, store!
You are right on with your recommendations, and you're one of a scant few pet experts I trust for guidance when I invest my hard-earned dollars in a product. Down the line, I'm going to try a Spirit Essence product, which you give rave reviews about as well.
Thanks again for referring this product.

A recent study tested the learning ability of dogs supplemented with Platinum Performance™ Canine Wellness compared to a non-supplemented, control group of dogs. During Phase 1 and Phase 2, dogs were trained to navigate through a maze. The dogs supplemented with Platinum Performance achieved their objective of navigating through a maze with significantly less attempts than the control group. In Phase 3, recall of the skills learned in the first two phases was tested. Dogs on Platinum Performance Canine Wellness demonstrated superior memory by completing the task more quickly than dogs not on Platinum Performance. Additionally, every dog in the Platinum Performance group learned faster than every dog in the control group.
PLATINUM PERFORMANCE PLUS: A VERY SPECIAL SUPPLEMENT
(Excerpt from The Dog Bible, written by Tracie Hotchner pp. 463-464)
I’ve only encountered a few products in researching this book—and in my years with dogs and other animals—that I really want to share with other dog lovers. Platinum Performance™ Canine Plus is a dietary supplement that is at the top of that list. It is a vitamin/mineral/glucosamine powder that you put on the dog’s food. It is formulated and made by an equine veterinary group in northern California, where I learned about Platinum Performance years ago because it helped my horse enormously.
When I began having lameness problems with my dogs—especially Yogi Bear, the foundling Rottweiler (who was thrown away in a box in the road because he was born without functional hip sockets), I wondered about the horse supplement for him. Cosequin (which is probably the best-known brand of glucosamine supplement for animals—see page TK) had
not made a noticeable difference in Mr. Bear’s pain. That’s how I found out there was a canine version of Platinum Performance (the “Plus” is their formula
with 500 milligrams of glucosamine per tablespoon, versus 200 milligrams in the regular formula—Yogi weighed 120 pounds, so he needed the big boy’s dose). The product made such a miraculous difference in Yogi’s ability to get up and around without pain that I give it twice a day to all my dogs, young or old, whether they have physical problems or not.
Several friends whose dogs had joint problems (and had also tried Cosequin with minimal improvement) are now converts to Platinum Plus, too. My friend Eileen’s two six-month old Lab brothers (from a supposedly good breeder) would be so crippled after running on the beach that they would drag their hindquarters around, whimpering. Since going on Platinum Performance Plus they have never had another “paraplegic moment.” At eight years old, my friend Sharon’s Labrador, Becca, got a little brother. Even though she was fi t, her joints were so achy that she couldn’t play with him. Now on Platinum Plus she can outrun Toby in the woods (well, not quite, but she can keep up!). I feel sort of evangelical—as if I’m telling stories about people throwing away their crutches at Lourdes—but there are so many supplements out there, how can you know which ones work best? So this is a personal endorsement, but don’t doubt my motives: I pay the same as anybody else for the tub of Platinum Performance that FedEx brings to my door!
