Shellfish allergy
I had my dogs on this for years and it worked really well for stiffness. Recently was going through an elimination diet for allergies for the labrador, and read something about shellfish allergy in dogs. Bingo - changed him to a different joint supplement and no more allergy. Just something to be aware of if you have a dog with allergies.

Made a big difference!
Very pleased with the results of this joint supplement. I have a sweetheart of a Rottweiler - but unfortunately she doesn't have the best breeding, and at the age of 6 was already getting 'hitchy' in her hips. I noticed it a lot when she would lie down for a while and then try and get up - she struggled quite a bit. I've had her on this for about a month now and we have seen great results. Even my fiance noticed how much easier she gets around! Definitely well worth it. I plan on keeping her on this indefinitely.

Up the stairs on her own!
After weeks of having to carry the dog up the stairs -- she just went up the entire flight, on her own. Didn't need to be coaxed, didn't have any pain -- just went on her own because she wanted to -- and because she could. Been using these less than a month. These are great!

Great for finicky dogs
My 10+ year old Lab mix has had joint problems for sometime and they were getting worse. He's only been on Glyco-Flex II for two weeks and already we are seeing a difference in his walking and comfort. He is a real challenge when it comes to getting him to take pills- he spits everything out. Glyco-Flex II is advertised that dogs will love them. They're right! He looks at them as treats, waiting for them every morning. I definately recommend these for finicky dogs with joint issues.

Glyco-Flex
This product was recommended by our Vet. It has certainly helped the back leg of our dog. She doesn't limp near as much & the leg doesn't appear as stiff. Our only complaint it the size of the pill, our dog doesn't care for the large size.

Great for big dogs!
My dogs weigh 90 pounds each and are about to turn 7 years old, which means they'll officially be seniors! I started them on GlycoFlex II a few months ago as a preventative measure to keep their joints healthy. They are active, and I want them to stay that way for a long time! They gobble the tabs up like treats, and I feel great knowing I'm helping them stay happy and healthy!

Turn back the clock on your dog!
I started using GlycoFlex on my Schnauzer, Beenie, about 6 months ago. It seems to be doing her a LOT of good! She does her twirly dance of joy, and gallops up the hill just like a puppy. It is quite a difference from the dog who would get up so gingerly, and hobble several steps before actually walking!
