My Staffordshire Bull Terrier was offered this and started it last year for stiff joints. She was still lively and interested in the world around her. After starting this drug (shes 13) she became lethargic but pacing cannot get comfy has 2nd stage kidney failure. Stands staring into space wees a lot and shows no interest in anything. Im positive this drug is responsible. They will say well she was old. I know my dog better than anyone and all these cases with the same side affects cannot be coincidence. We are now told she needs to be PTS. Devastated is not the word.

LIBRELA is a death sentence. I lost my best friend, Oliver, two months after his second Librela injection at the end of December 2023. He suffered from a progressively debilitating decline post Librela and kept up the fight until he no longer could. There are just too many similarities post Librela in too many of our fur babies with the sudden and new onset of unrelenting symptoms of weakness and ataxia, inability to walk or stand, excessive thirst and incontinence, seizures and twitches, loss of appetite, episodes of staring and confusion, etc., etc. Mine also developed hearing loss, blood in his urine and kidney failure. Can it ALL be attributed to old age and comorbidities in ALL of our dogs right after receiving this new “wonder drug?” If it looks like a duck, smells like a duck, quacks like a duck… it’s Librela. Zoetis needs to stop and take pause. I don’t get a second chance. Oliver doesn’t get a second chance. Zoetis is playing a game of Russian roulette with our family members. There was insufficient testing of this drug on all breeds in all walks of life and in all states of health. There has not been enough education and truth-telling to the vets who promote this proported “wonder drug” which for so many has become a death sentence. There is inaccurate reporting, insufficient literature and an overall lack of compassion and love for our animals on the part of Zoetis by virtue of the fact that they continue to distribute and promote a drug that has obviously stirred up much controversy and has caused much heartache. Take a stand and make this right. Too many have already succumbed to the horrible effects of Librela. 💔

Bella received her 7th and last Librela injection on the 10th Jan, 5 days later she suffered severe adverse reactions, vomiting/diarrhoea not wanting to eat or drink, couldn’t stand (Ataxia) and had a severe vacancy in her eyes, almost like she was blind. It seemed she had given up on life. I booked an appointment to PTS, and whilst waiting for our appointment, I found the FB groups Librela Experiences and Librela Reviews & Feedback. I started to read people's posts, the good the bad and the ugly; Sadly the bad outweighed the good, there’s an alarming number of similar adverse reactions including loss of life. I read a supportive post to hang in there, wait it out whilst the Librela wore off, which I did - and luckily Bella came back to me, she started eating/drinking and slowly her bacterial skin infection cleared. A large number of posts where people have PTS their beautiful fur babies, not knowing early symptoms were the onset of adverse reactions, if they wait it out, the dog could come back - which proves it is the Librela shot! Frustratingly the vets and Zoetis are not listening to the reports and complaints of the people who are experiencing the pain, suffering and premature loss of their very valuable family members. This shot is Russian Roulette, I would advise caution before administering and to do your research. It seems profits over health are playing a large part in this. Sorry to all who have lost their fur babies believing they were doing the right thing - advised by the people they trust.

Librela is a killer. This drug is being marketed as a wonder drug, but the only wonder is how has it not been removed from the market. It supposedly has no side effects, but the is utter rubbish. Dogs are dying as a direct result of being given the treatment, and this HAS TO STOP!! If I could award zero stars, I would.

My dog was given 3 Librela injections that were developed and sold by this company. He fell very sick after second and nearly died after 3rd! Hundrends of other experiences like mine and many dogs that actually died! Yes nothing is being done and they get away with it! AVOID anything produced by this brand, its dangerous!

Librela killed my dog!! Only 1 shot of librela and 12 hours later my dog died!! Zoetis is trying to silence us!! Do not give your dog this shot please!!

if i could give them 0 i would, this company refuse to take responsibility for the suffer of our pups, vets are telling this is a miracle drug no side affects, do not fall for it, please do your researcher, some dogs do good with the drug but to many are having horrible side affect and even dyeing, and still the company and the vets are promoting this drug like a miracle drug with no side affects. i lost my baby girl, and the guilt i have for giving her that because i trusted my vet and seeing her suffer is unbearable. please do your research

Librela is poison to many dogs! They are not transparent with the side effects on especially older dogs!! This can be a poison to older dogs, leaving them with horrific consequences, or death. Our personal story is our German Shepherd has DM and the vet recommended Librela. Now, he suddenly can’t walk, his hind legs are extremely weak. It has been an emotional roller coaster for my husband and I, seniors. Trying to help a 115 lb dog to walk with a lift harness in our 70’s, risking our own health. The vets are not providing factual information on this poison. Poison.
