A Congleton couple are celebrating after 10 year old Collie Yoda found a new lease of life thanks to a “wonder formula” that they were asked to trial.
Elderly Yoda, increasingly in pain from arthritis, now spurts around their garden and runs everywhere with no sign of the crippling pain she was in before. Yoda is one of the first dogs in the UK to be given the natural fulvic acid-based formula after owners Cathy and John Dean noticed the animal was increasingly experiencing difficulty walking far and only wanted to lie down.
“She went from being a lively dog that would walk as far as we could take her, to suffering from pain in her limbs and unable to walk very far at all. It was obvious she was in trouble,” said Cathy. “Border collies are used to running round a lot and she was looking really down. “Vets told us there was really nothing we could do for her as she was old and had arthritis. We were told it would gradually get worse.”
Cathy, a well known Potteries area networker who runs the IBD Internet Business Directory, met Stafford man John Challinor who was looking for dog owners to try out his new formula, based on the human version of the naturally found fulvic acid, but with added vitamins. “We were desperate and said we’d try anything,” said Cathy. “We were a bit sceptical, but John assured us the formula - called The Pet Answer - was based on natural minerals that so much of our food today lacks. What a difference it made after just a month. Yoda was jumping up and running everywhere she could; we just couldn’t hold her back. All our friends are amazed at the turnaround; she’s a puppy again.”

We all want to keep our much loved pet safe, and there is no greater worry than losing them. It’s a sad fact that nearly 1000 pets go missing every day and only a small proportion of them ever find their way home. Pets can stray for a number of reasons; they can become spooked during thunder storms or firework season, wander too far from home or become a little too curious whilst out on a walk.
