1. It’s hard to get dogs to eat it.

2. It is very costly, and there are much cheaper probiotics.

3. It’s just another commercial scam.

I haven’t, but I found a discussion which may be helpful to you here.

Interesting marketing choice for a product name?

Does this remind anyone else of Jimmy (JJ) Walker?

Did they tweak it a little to avoid a lawsuit?

Is that the product with the commercials on XMRadio with the wildly outrageous claims?

Yep, it’s the one from the XM commercial. It seems there’s a lot of sceptics and critics on here. I have actually TRIED the product so I have a REAL opinion. My dog had really bad, itchy skin and shed out continuously. And, since there’s a money back guarantee, I tried it. Even the vet could not help me…except he kept putting my dog on steroids and medications that cost a bundle, had no guarantee and it cost me just to walk through the door.

Anyway, my dog has been on the Dinovite and the lickochops for about a year. NO MORE shedding! NO MORE itching and biting at himself all night long! And, the yukky odor he had is GONE! It took about a month for the odor to go away and about 3 months for the itching and shedding to disappear.

Read the ingredients; do some research. It makes sense WHY it works. You people are probably the same bunch who feeds their dog Beneful, the chicken feed for dogs!

I’m much more of an asshole than that. I feed my dog Meow Mix. When I grow up, I’m gonna have me a REAL opinion, too.

I think the name means Dynamite Vitamins! Dinovite! We think dinovite is dynamite! My bull dog STUNK so bad before dinovite. AND he had BAD gas! He loves his dinovit too. So , I guess it’s just like people…some people like certain foods, others don’t. There’s more than just probiotics in it. pdworkin obviously doesn’t care for the product and it sounds like he has many dogs and they don’t like it. I have one and he likes it just fine. And, now my sister and aunt use dinovite too.

I actually used to feed my dog a Science diet dog food (recommended by my vet, unfortunately) but figured out that it is mainly corn. Meow mix is also mainly corn, so you probably could feed it to your dog with the same results ; )

HOMETOSTAY is right, I’ve used dinovite with my dogs for about 3 years. we used to sweep up tons of hair but no more…it’s great!
