What is the difference between these chews and the PhyCox Max? Has anyone had experience with the Max product, especially as compared to this product?

Sorry, I haven't tried the MAX version Phycox. But I would say the original Phycox soft CHEWS are really working for my older dogs.

I do not know what is the difference. My 12 year old dog seemed to be having a hard time getting up sometimes and the vet gave me some samples of the PhyCox Soft Chews. She liked them and she is no longer having troubles with her joints!

Interesting question, as I just came from the Phycox MAX page after reading that description carefully. I don't know why they aren't more clear about it on the product page, but the MAX formula appears to be for older obese dogs with potentially diabetes issues. I quote: "Improved weight loss in aging dogs", "Improved control of blood glucose levels", "Phycox MAX 3X addresses concerns with heart health, obesity, blood glucose levels...". I've been using this regular Phycox for several years now after my older female dog (not obese) began having hip problems, and it's been like a miracle drug, so I'm sticking to it.

Hi Trevor, this is Benebone here. Every dog is different. Our product is super-strong, but at the same time it's got just a little bit of give so it does not damage teeth. In the end, you'll have to see for yourself. But one thing is for sure - we stand by our product. We are committed to customer satisfaction. So if you aren't satisfied, please contact us via our website. Please closely monitor wear and remove long before risk of breaking apart. All the best. Peter at Benebone.

I suggest you stick with oral b brand . The oem look alikes don't work well. I get a large pack at Costco and they last for years.

hi, i just got these from the vet. my mini doxie just had her canine teeth pulled in december, and yes, she still eats these treats. she also has had 6 other teeth taken out, so, somehow, she can still work on these. the vet, highly recommended them. i have three dogs (10 yr old terrier, 8 yr old doxie and a puppy), they all trade off on these treats. the doxie usually will take the treat after it is worked on by the other dogs, but she does chew them.

Actually Gerry I highly recommend this product. Our neighbors and friends are blown away at the difference it made in our dog. We made a family affair and the whole family watched the videos and we noticed a difference after only 2 sessions with our dog. Our dog would chew on everything and that has disappeared as well. Hope this feedback helps

One type is just the highly digestible chew with no additives and the other contains added chlorhexidine to assist in bacterial control. I hope this helps. :)

Yes it is fine to give both of them. We found that our 15 yr old Aussie/Beagle mix no longer needs the Rymadyl since taking the Phycox Max. She is hiking and acting like a puppy again without coming home sore. I can't recommend it enough!

I do believe another difference between these ones and the "Elite Omega-3" (which is the one I've been using) is that the Elite has a "natural lemon flavor" and the Super Omega-3 (this item) does not have a flavor. So I'm curious for those of you who have taken this product, does it have a more fishy smell and or taste? Do you get the notorious "fish burps"? With the Elite version with the lemon flavor, when I burp it is actually lemony.

Hi JoAnne , I would ask another vet !? My vet doubles the price well almost tripped ? He said buy here too ? I brought them in after I read this and he shows me his and they even have the same marks ion the tabs ? I'm happy I can get them so inexpensive as I know my dogs do better in them and a life time user and never a problem oh my dog got sick one had a sensitive stomach and so I give with food ? Other than that nothing but hep ?

The label for this product does not appear to be the label from the company that makes this product. I don't know who PSHC is but Phycox Max is made by Dechra. I would be very cautious about buying this product. And Dechra does NOT sell their products to any company other than a licensed veterinarian.

I haven't found anything like them. My dog loves these. They can sometimes be a bit hard to find. Nylabone Healthy Edibles are long lasting chews my dog enjoys, but they are still rawhide and because I have to watch my dog's weight, I don't buy them nearly as often as Dreambones.

I have used both. I think the soft chew may work better for her (and you) if that is her preference.

Need to be swallowed...not chewable. I found a very good (much smaller) product by FINEST brand (Walgreen's brand) and you only need to take one a day and seems to do as good a job.....might want to give it a try if size is the problem.

I wanted to answer this older question just because my answer differs from the others. We have a very small dog and he can chew it for a few hours but it still lasts until I throw the remainder away or it could sit there for a few days but I opt to give him a fresh one. They are just the right thickness and are a long lasting and fantastic treat for him! They are definitely a rawhide and the best I have ever found anywhere.

The Cosequin DS Chewables Plus are kind of hard, I break one tablet in two and just give my dog one half because he is only 53 pounds. Otherwise, the whole chewable dosage would be a little too much. I normally shop at Dr. Foster and Smith for my dog's vitamins. You can contact your local Veterinarian and ask what kind of chewable tablet is best for your dog. Take care.

I have purchased both. Tablets r cheaper but my one dog had no problem eating either...he is not fussy. On the other hand, my other dog would not eat neither. I tried breaking up and putting inside food like a pill but spit out. Not sure if this helps.

The chews weren't too bad for chewing - wouldn't recommend for dentures (rather sticky). However, I've found that the same basic product is available at a cheaper price at Kroger. This a great product, but prefer the lower price.
