Do you remember Riri, Dr. Christine's mom's dog? ๐พ
Well, we have great news!
His knee surgery was a success! He's improving day by day, and here's a video of him enjoying his daily walks again! ๐ถโโ๏ธ
As a reminder, Riri unfortunately tore his CCL (Cranial Cruciate Ligament), similar to the ACL in humans, which is crucial for stabilizing the knee joint. This injury occurred during a playful moment on a walk, limping on one leg after a jump that was a bit too ambitious. Christine's mom noticed immediately.
Join us in wishing Riri, aka Rio, a very successful rehabilitation.
Our positive story of the day: @boxerkokomo ! ๐
Indered by a torn ligament, Kokomo's, aka Koko, life was limited...
However, after Ashley, her mom, was recommended Jope by a friend, she saw changes even before Koko's surgery. ๐
Koko's energy soon returned, with Ashley's husband being the first to notice, questioning if Jope was the only new addition to her routine. Koko was able to enjoy beach days like before.
Her recovery, particularly post-surgery, was even more inspiring. ๐
Witnessing Koko's revival filled Ashley with hope and joy.
We're thrilled to hear stories like Ashley's and are grateful for them.
Thank you @ashiemkent! ๐

It's Not Only Happening to Others...
Today, we share a touching story from our own Jope family.
Riri, the cherished dog of Christine's mother, has faced an unexpected challenge. Christine, not just Jope cofounder, but a devoted daughter and a passionate veterinarian, quickly realized the seriousness of Riri's condition from this simple video sent from her mother in France. (Did you know Christine is part French?)
After a normal daily walk where Riri tried to jump after an insect, he began limping on his hind leg.
With Christine's expert eye, she suspected a torn CCL โ a suspicion that was sadly confirmed by her trusted veterinarian in France, where Riri showed "a positive drawer sign."
Tomorrow, Riri bravely heads into surgery. As we share this, our hearts are with him, wishing for his strength and a swift recovery. ๐
This personal story hits close to home, reminding us that joint issues can strike unexpectedly, touching the lives of those we love.
๐ชAs part of his recovery and lifelong care, Riri will be on our Jope supplements, starting now. Combined with rehabilitation, these supplements will support his joint health and help reduce the risk of future arthritis in his knees.
Please join us in sending your warmest wishes to Riri for his surgery and recovery. Together, we stand strong in the face of adversity, supporting each other and our beloved pets every step of the way.
