Highlighted Reviews

β€” Marnie

"I definitely see a difference in my dog’s mobility with these chews. She gets stiff and was struggling from time to time with getting up from a lying position. Since we put her on these chews she is back to moving well."

β€” Melanie

"What has happened to this supplement? Is the lot expired? This is my replacement and it is not better than the package that was replaced. I’ve been using this supplement for some time now to help keep my older dog mobile. The chews are supposed to be soft and chewy. That’s what they used to be. ..."

Bottom Line

VetriScience GlycoFlex Plus is a good choice for improving joint health in medium to large dogs, despite some texture issues. It's worth trying if your dog needs joint support, but be prepared for potential palatability issues.
