Do dogs like the taste of it? In other words, any problems getting your pet to take the supplement? I assume it goes over the food?

I am currently giving this supplement to my 2 Dobermans. Their evening meal is kibble and dehydrated raw mixed with water. I spread Synflex over food just before giving to them. My female is almost 13 and has arthritic joints. Since starting this supplement, I have seen great improvement.

Our dog ate it up when we put it on food. If you give it to them straight, recommend using a syringe (like the one used to give small children cough medicine).

Every dog is different though I had no problems. One particular dog looked forward to it.

Hi, did you end up trying this? I want to order it for my husky and curious if it works! Thank you!

I have 2 labradors. One is 11 and one is 7 and they are around a fit 85 pounds. I would say we noticed a difference in about a month. Plus I am in rescue and have given it to some of my foster dogs. Every dog loves the taste including the picky ones. It is a great way to get them to eat their food and get some added nutrition in them as well. I started my labradors on it after it was suggested by someone who runs a large breed rescue group that I know and trust. My dogs have been on it for a few years and I will keep buying it. It has made a noticable change in my dogs. But make sure you follow the directions and keep it in the orginal packaging and keep it refrigerated or it may not work as well. I have 2 labradors.

I've added it to their food and all seemed okay. I do raw and when I don't feel like doing fresh veggies and fruit I use this product. Dogs have been on raw a long time and this is great method for me. I grind the food too because it is convenient for me to serve them in bowls.

My pug loves to eat them. My lab needs a bit of coaxing. But will eventually eat it. I have found a terrific way to get him to eat other pills that he refuses to eat. Stick it in a marshmallow.

1-2; it takes dogs time to adjust to this food (as any food), so have you changed your dog over very gradually? Are you giving too much? Also, I only use the chicken/duck/turkey combo, not Taste of the Wild, which may be too rich. It's a great dog food.

It's all about the Dog's Taste. My dog happens to Love Peanut Butter. He's not crazy about Bacon or Liver or whichever other flavored treats out there... And sometimes it takes awhile for some pets to warm up to new things.... I also broke the treat up, if that helps you w/an idea to try.... Funny thing about my dog (who happens to be a medium size) When I give him a whole treat while we happen to be in the park, he bury's it . They don't bother my dogs digestion and I do trust "Newman's Own" It's Why I give Onyx the Newman Brand Pet Treats. And it all goes to charity as well.

My dog is 14 and a bit on the picky side. I don't believe she would take this if I just gave it to her as a snack, but again she is picky. My other dog never had an issue and would eat them right out of my hand. What I do is mix it in with her dinner and I usually use a bit of a canned food (or pouch) to make it tasty. She has no issue with that at all. I even sneak a fish pill in there and those are huge! It's worth whatever trouble you might have with your dog because I have seen a big difference since she started taking these (1 year ago). If that doesn't work, try a spoonful with peanut butter and hid it in that. My dog is 14 and a bit on the picky side.

It is powder in capsule but not certain how it tastes. Also if your dog doesn't finish the food all at the same time the powder could go bad / lose its effectiveness. I wrapped the capsule and some wet food put it right on top of the dry food and my dog eats it up right away

I think it smells tasty, not unpleasant at all, and both my dogs love all the Primal flavors. I like feeding my dogs something that is great for them!

My guy gets a cup of food a day and I order around 1x a month ;-) The food is wonderful, it might take a little bit for your dog to eat it, but after he or she gets hungry enough it will be fine. Just think it's like us going from McDonald's to Vegan and takes time to get used to. ;-)

My two year old schoodle doesn't like anything, but her puppy food (the very expensive one), but she gets desperate and will eat this dog food. I would give my puppy the BEST food you can find that he likes....he isn't a puppy all that long.

I am not sure why that would happen, except they may be tired of it or it is too dry? Do you rehydrate it? My dogs don't have the same enthusiasm they used to have when eating them, however, they still do eat it and they won't eat many foods at all, not even steak. I do feed it to them dry and I rotate flavors. Their favorite flavors are the beef and the lamb. I feed it to them like a treat, but knowing it is good for them makes me happy.

I mix it in with the food, dry or wet food my dogs seem to like it and don't mind me mixing it in. I did forget once and offered it to my lab after his meal and he gladly licked it up.

Its in powder form. You can mix it with their soft food. If you don't feed soft food, you can try mixing it with salmon oil. That's what I did for my dogs and they licked it all up.

Dear Donna,My dog likes to eat her VeggieDent after our early morning walk. Usually she inhales it. I'd say it takes her perhaps a minute or two to eat it. It is not very "hard" to eat, but it does seem to keep her teeth clean, though I have to add, that we also brush her teeth most every night, something she hates, but to which she resigns herself.

Who knows what is the right dog food ? The food you are using requires less food which might explain the weight gain so read the directions. For me it all comes down to what my dog will eat, and the reviews. If the dog will not eat it, why buy it.Something I feel the manufacturers have lost sight of is the taste. They are more concerned with marketing.You will have to be the judge on what works best for your dog. I think there is a fine line between $60 dog food which is what you are using and $30 dog food which takes care of the dogs nutritional needs. Good luck Who knows what is the right dog food ?
