"I used to have my 14 year old Shepherd Mix on Canine Complete Joint Mobility, but because of the price, I decided to try this instead. While I definitely prefer all the added nutrients in the Canine Complete, for joint supplement, this is excellent. He loved them, which is saying a lot because he is one picky eater, and transitioned on them nicely. I wouldn't say his mobility increased after switching - it stayed about the same though. Definitely my go-to joint supplement for a more affordable option."

It's a Miracle!

July 20, 2012
ByMastiffMommy
"2 winters ago, our mastiff's arthritis was so bad that we had to carry her up the stairs, despite lots of trips to the vet, lots of medicines, and lots of $$$$. 2 friends recommended that I try Glyco-Flex III. I was skeptical because we had spent so much money on prescription medication, I really didn't think a supplement would work. After 2 weeks on the "load" plan, our dog could go up the stairs by herself. After a month or so, she was actually running. If you're wondering whether or not you should try this product, my recommendation is YES, YES, YES!"

"This product is somewhat helpful for my dog. She had a torn ACL and surgery about 4 years ago. She still gets extremely stiff with more strenuous exercise exercise and I am going to try another product. My daughter, however gives it to her 10-year old mix breed dog who is a big girl, probably part German Shepherd and it has helped her hips quite a bit. Overall I think this is a good product."

"None of my 5 dogs will eat these chewable tablets without putting them in pill pockets. I have not had this issue with other chewable joint supplements.I purposely bought a chewable joint supplement to avoid using pill pockets so for me these have not been a good value at all."

"This was highly recommended to me by a veterinary surgeon. I have 2 older, arthritic dogs and this has changed their daily mobility and comfort level remarkably. They are fussy about eating it without a nice coating of something yummy."

"I have an 8y/o Shepard mix who tore the ligaments in both knees, and has very bad arthritis. At his last check up, the vet was concerned that he was in pain, and said if he was a human he would be a crotchety old man that would beat people with his cane. My dog has an insanely high tolerance for pain, and was not showing ANY signs of discomfort. I started him on this product, but will have to wait till the next set of x-rays to see if it is actually helping. At that point I may change my rating."

"My 11-year-old English Springer Spaniel has been on Glycoflex III for almost four years now. She is still competing in agility competitions and has not slowed down a bit. I credit Glycoflex III with helping her stay healthy and active!"

"But my dog hates it! It's ok, I crush it up and put it in a bit of wet food and he eats it fine. The first 2 days he ate it w/ no problem, but then he refused it (even w/ peanut butter on it). I think it may be a bit chalky tasting for him.
So far, I think it's helping his join pain. :) I totally recommended this product."

"Our 12 year old white golden retriever has been suffering from very bad hips and finding it very difficult to get up from a lying position.
Previous products, including Vet prescriptions were not working so we decided to give GLYCO-FLEX III a try and although it's early days her daily walk has increased from 100 Yds. total to well over a 300 Yds. in less than a month and she seems to be without pain.
We are giving her 2 tablets a day along with the HylaMotion Gel and a 375mg Asprin.

"My Corgi mix has had ACL repairs on both back legs. The first surgery, at age 4, took a couple of months to recover from. The second leg, operated on when he was 6, healed incredibly quickly. He was totally mobile in a couple of weeks. He rebounded from the surgery much quicker the second time because he'd been on Glycoflex 3 for two years. Our vet gives the product raves."

"My dog went on this after tearing her ACL and undergoing surgery to repair it per the surgeon's instructions. She was on Cosequin before that and we switched her back to it. Not only does she seem to do better on the Cosequin, but the GlycoFlex contains shellfish and the odor is enough for her to refuse to eat these tablets. They're also quite large compared to the Cosequin making them even more difficult to feed."

"We started using Glyco-Flex III when our Golden Retriever was nine and started showing some arthritis in her knee joints and back. She is now 14 and, although she is slowing down, I do think this product has kept her active. We have added in some yearly series of joint injections, but this product has been her main-stay."

"I have tried many glucosamine supplements for german shepherd, who has severe hip dysplasia, with little results. Cosequin worked for a month and then he seemed to revert back to before. However, the Glycoflex III has him running around with little signs of lameness. He will take his pills in his food or as a treat without hesitation. I could not have asked for a better product and I will continue using this for years to come."

"I started our dog, Rosie, on Glycoflex 3 about 2 weeks ago. She is a German Shepherd/Australian Shepherd cross and has progressive arthritis in her spine. Even on her pain meds, she just wanted to lay around and was sore. Now, she is back playing and is much, much happier. We plan to drop back her pain meds a bit (hard on stomach). She also doesn't mind eating these which is a treat as Rosie is terrible to give meds to. For a big dog, she is very delicate with her eating and can eat cheese or meat off a pill very neatly. It's great to have our "floofy" (fluffy goof) back."

"Our 14 year old Lab has arthritis in one knee related to a torn ACL from years ago. She used to have to get her confidence up to jump up a six inch step into our house. Using Glyco-Flex III for a few months now and she has no trouble with that step. Not only that, but she jumps and runs all over the place again.
I wish it was a little less expensive, but it matches very well price-wise with products of similar quality."

"I give this product to both my dogs and they look forward to eating it, they think it is a treat! Also I have noticed an improvement in my 12 yr. old lab. He is able to move his back leg much better than before and does not seem to have the discomfort he had before this product. I have not used it very long either so I know that over time he will continue to improve. My younger dog had spinal surgery 2 yrs. ago and his legs in the back are much improved. He has arthritus.
I am very pleased and also very pleased with Smart Pak service and quality of their products and will continue to use them for all my needs, or should I say all my dogs needs.

"Glyco Flex lll is a great product and my vet really likes it but my male German Shepherd, a very fussy eater, would not eat it even if disguised with other foods (baby food chicken, etc.) My female Shephed would eat it happily, but she doesn't need it! A Smart Pack representative is very kindly sending me samples of another product that she thinks would be more palatable, so we shall see! I think the problem is the perna mussel -- fishy. I would recommend it with qualifications -- described above."
