My breeder suggested I try this for my Westie that has Arthritis in her back legs, but what is the difference between phycox max and phycox,

MAX Has more ingredients go to the phycox site and read info on it - I was very impressed especially I have a older dog with an injury. I was using Phycox before but no the max then I researched it and switched. Now my vet carries it too. Great stuff.

Phycox Max is stronger than regular Phycox... I was particularly interested in the amount of tumeric which is one of the ingredients used for pain/inflamation relief..I take tumeric myself and no longer take acetaminophen or naproxen!

Phycox Max is more concentrated for older dogs or dogs with severe joint and hip pain. It also has a few extra additions to help with the urinary tract and heart health. I would recommend MAX if your Westie is over 6 yrs old or has severe hip and joint pain. Hope that helps!

It worked for my Yellow Lab, it took 6 months of two per meal, twice a day. I was supprised it worked so well.

I don't really see that there is a difference. If your dog is a puller, I wouldn't suggest buying this product. It's good for dogs who walk/run beside you.

I am not a vet, but this is basically the same Glucosamine that adults use. However, if your dog doesn't have any leg or joint problems currently, given his age is 12 months, I wouldn't start giving them to him/her for a couple of years as a preventative measure. My dog has been taking these (12 y.o. Lab/Border Collie) for a couple of years now with no side affects and showing a definitive improvement in his rear legs and hips.

I used the 2.0 kit for my mixed breed dog. I am not sure of the difference. I would suggest going to the website and calling their customer support number. I called to check on my kit's progress and they were very helpful.

I cannot quite understand your question, but Synflex helps my dog a lot. She is a 9 lb Yorkie that has arthritis. I wish I'd given it to her years ago as a preventative. The 8 oz. bottle lasts for over 3 months. Now she acts like the pain is gone.

I believe it is. You can go to their website at phycox.com and it says right there made in the USA. I personally use this product for my 9 year old German Shepherd who has arthritis and it has made a 100 difference in her. I saw results within a week. I swear by this stuff. Heidi

I'm sorry I cannot answer this question. We have an older dog with arthritic joints. It certainly seems to help our Molly get around without pain..... at least she doesn't limp anymore.

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.

There is a Dasuquin for small dogs. I would use that instead of breaking pills to make sure you have the proper dose for your dogs weight.

There seems to be two different (yet similar) items. 1.) Cosequin Hip and Joint Plus Bonelets - shaped like little dog bone snacks2.) Cosequin Joint Health Supplement - standard chew tabsProbably someone at the product providers confused the images due to similarity in product names.

Hi Phyllis -- I cannot tell you what is the difference or what is the same BUT I can tell you that I have used it for years and my family and friends have used it... I also use it for my dogs and all of us are very happy plus pain is gone or decreased. My dog could not walk at all with her hind legs and she started using them again and was fine for another 8 - 10 years... Oh Phyllis if you are going to use the Omega BE SURE YOU USE THE OMEGA 3-6-9 .. this is the most complete and one does not work well without the other ... GOOD LUCK - GOD BLESS

actually, I can't answer exactly, because it couldn't say something changed about my dogs hip and joint. I have two dogs they're both 11 years, they're very healthy. I think maybe the dogs as a senior person who should be to eat some vitamins and health products. and I ate some products from GNC, so I trust this brand. that's the reason why I bought this for my dogs.

By monster size , I buy the large capsule size for our Happy. He takes one med that is quite big so we break into four pieces and use just enough pill pocket to get around it. Since morning consists of two different pills, one large capsule pocket takes care of the big one, which is the size of a penny and is a quarter of an inch thick. Just wrap enough pill pocket around the meds so your pet thinks it's a goodie. I prefer the chicken or beef, Happy hated the peanut and the consistency of it was weird!! If I can help you anymore let me know. Med time was a real battle until I discovered pill pockets capsules. Good luck..........Loved your handle, could be mine!!!!

your product is great if you have a dog > 5 yrs. but your product doesn't have the vitamin c and that was the ingredient that sold me on joint max. i try to use supplements that offer immune support as well.

,No Rimadyl is NSAID Phycox helps with joints. I know it helps so I don't use Rimadyl anymore.

My yorkie-maltese was diagnosed with hip dysplasia (with osteoarthritic changes) at two yrs old. Shes been on 25 mg chewable rimadyl for 3 years now and its been a great product. I walk her daily and she runs and fetches. Hopefully i can put off her FHO surgery for years to come. I do also feed her food containing omega 3 and give her a joint supplement treat daily. I plan to try phycox as her joint supplement treat as the one ive been giving her has been discontinued. My vet recommended using both together as well as a dog food containing omega 3/6.

This will not work for a great pyranese. A great pyranese is not a 110lb dog lol. They can get to 200lbs. I know bc I have one. They become larger than a great dane. Look for a larger size but go with this kind of bed. I've read all the information and these are even rated as one of the top orthopedic dog beds 2015. Hopefully the price will stay the same.
