Magical! My elderly bulldog is refreshed from barely walking!
2 weeks, 2 Short weeks – and my dog is feeling like a new dog!! I have an old (8yo) English Bulldog who was already getting stiff. Then he survived a heat stroke but has some ugly after effects showing up. He could barely walk and was clearly in a lot of pain and I was teetering on the unthinkable because I don’t want to watch him suffer. But I happened upon this product, and although not my normal price range, I decided to give it a try. It’s been 2 weeks of 4 tabs a day (oh, and he actually eats them without having to be tricked with some other food around it!) He is now back to just a little stiff, but walking across the yard again for all of his “smells”, hopping back up on the couch (he couldn’t for a while) and today he even had a couple little bouts of a “trot” when he could barely walk himself outside to go to the bathroom just 2 short weeks ago.So if your dog has a joint problem, from age or type of dog he is, or even an injury – grab you a bag and maybe see the same unbelievable results I have. We have tried so many “chews” over his lifetime – most of which he refuses to eat – and had little to no results until NOW

Work beautifully!! Will be reordering!
We moved recently and our 5 year old Basset had more steps to go up and down. She was very stiff and achy after three days so I did some research and settled on these. Within two days of two “treats” a day, she was bouncing up the steps and moving much easier. She now reminds me of her morning and evening “treat”! Bassets are notoriously picky eaters and she loves these. They also can have tummy issues and she has not shown any signs of distress. I will be reordering them so we never run out.

Great hip and joint supplement
At my Lab/Foxhounds first appointment after adoption, the vet warned that he is at higher risk for hip and joint issues (6mos old at the time). He is 4 now and the vet continues to comment that his hips are in good shape. Not proof of effectiveness, but I do believe it is a good indicator. He isn’t good about taking any meds, so I like that these are softer and can be broken into pieces and hidden in his food. VetriScience has been much more cost effective than many of the other options I have considered.

Long term use with our three senior pups
All three of our senior dogs get these as a daily supplement. We don’t have any problems getting them to take these, and they do seem to help. I know there’s a big debate over the effectiveness of glucosamine in joint health and if it actually helps or it’s more of a placebo. Our oldest dog is a little over 13 and has been receiving hip and joint supplements for years, and based on what our vets have told us, for a dog his age his hips and spine are in great shape. He is just recently starting to show arthritis in his spine and dysplasia in his hips, and being a larger dog (75 pound Lab/Retriever mix), every vet he’s seen has said to keep up whatever we are doing for him. He gets good exercise, high quality food, and these supplements, so even though the jury is still out on whether or not glucosamine does or does not help, I’ll keep giving these to our senior dogs. Maybe it’s the other ingredients rather than just the glucosamine, but so far they’ve helped hold back the aging process in their joints. Even our two other dogs (one is 11 and the other is 9) don’t show the level or extent of arthritis or dysplasia that should be present at their ages for their size and breed, especially our GSD.We had been giving them the hard tablets, but decided to switch to the chews because we don’t have to worry about them being eaten. They have a bit of a funky smell, but the dogs don’t mind. The pups snarf it down eagerly and look for more. We haven’t had any tummy troubles switching from the tablets to the chewies, either. My only concern with the chews is that they will dry out as they do have a bit of a crumbly texture to them. There are a few tablespoons of crumbles at the bottom of the bag, but I think that is more of a shipping and delivery issue as these came in a big box (way too big for just two bags of chews) without any padding to keep them from bouncing around the box during shipment.In the two years we’ve been giving these to our pups, we’ve been pretty pleased with the results. Prevention is cheaper and less time consuming than vet visits, x-rays, shots, getting a pet to take meds like steroids or Rimadyl (which too frequently can permanently damage the liver), blood work to see how those meds are affecting the pet’s liver or kidneys, and more. So as long as our guys keep showing such good results at keeping arthritis at bay, we will keep using GlycoFlex.

I don’t know if these have helped. I got them for a young rescue gsd who hadn’t gas the best start in life and came to us very underweight. It has given me piece of mind that it’s helping her joints as she grows a bit more and puts the weight on.Update: after a pack, the dog was much less stiff. I didn’t get another and about a year later she started showing signs of stiffness, a bit of a limp after a long sleep etc so got another. Sorted, all limber again so I’m convinced. Changed from 4 to 5 star (just wish they were cheaper!)

My spaniel dog had ruptured discs and went paralysed in back legs and now has IVDD. He had the operation and took 6 weeks to walk again. He’s been on this for around a month now, together with Yumove. He does seem to be getting stronger. I will keep using this, just in case it is this that is helping.UPDATE AFTER 2 YEARS OF USE: My boy has become so much stronger and I think these really do help. I switched from Yumove to Glycoflex 3, so now use both VetriDisc and Glycoflex 3 and they really do help him stay strong and enjoy life.
