Dr. Lyon's Advanced Strength Hip & Joint Health Soft Chews Dog Supplement

Our 14 year old golden retriever was already on some herbal anti-inflammatory supplements to help with the aches of pains of being elderly and having a previous ACL injury. We've noticed in the last couple of months that he's had a bit more discomfort getting around and had a lot less stamina on walks. We started this supplement about a couple weeks ago and within a couple of days we noticed an improvement in his energy level and eagerness to run around. He's a pup at heart so we can tell he is happier that he can better keep up with his spirits. This is quite pricey, so I'm hoping once we can back off of the loading dose that we can keep him on it longer term.

I recently discovered that the joint supplements we were using had chicken products in them. Since we are a house of allergies (including chicken) I shopped around. Dr Lyons was a good price and the mg amounts were even more than I was giving. It's been about two weeks and Rose is climbing up on the retaining wall again, she's sitting on the footstool. Plus now she only has to have one a day! (She is probably a bit upset about that since they're treats in her eyes)

I started my puppers on supplements after she randomly started whimpering and showing signs of pain when moving (as well as moving very slow) one weekend. Although she seemed to improve within a couple days, it made me worry and so I preemptively started her on supplements. I started with another brand, but since this one was better priced, especially with only a dose every other day, and seems to contain the exact same ingredients, we switched to this one. Since starting supplements, I haven’t noticed much of a difference, although she is still a pup and hasn’t shown signs of discomfort since the one incident mentioned. However, with all the problems bully breeds tend to have with their hips I started my puppers on supplements after she randomly started whimpering and showing signs of pain when moving (as well as moving very slow) one weekend.

Since starting supplements, I haven’t noticed much of a difference, although she is still a pup and hasn’t shown signs of discomfort since the one incident mentioned. However, with all the problems bully breeds tend to have with their hips and the like, I find it comforting that I can begin helping her early on with a product that contains the recommended ingredients at a reasonable price! (Not to mention she sees it as a treat and gobbles it up!) … more

These joint chews are a good value for the amount of active ingredients, but I was disappointed at how quickly they began to dry out after I opened the bag (and I keep it sealed properly). Also, my dog falls into the half chew dosage, and these are quite difficult to break in half...especially once they start drying out! I'll finish off this bag but likely won't be purchasing again.

I have an 8 year old Corgi who experienced back problems in the past. He has been on a glucosamine supplement (in tablet form) since that time to prevent any further issues. I switched to Dr. Lyon's based on price and great service from Chewy. My dog is in the weight range to take 1/2 chew per day on maintenance dosage, which is a bit time-consuming to split them all up considering the consistency of the chews. They are not very soft as indicated in the name. However, I believe these are a great value compared to the previous supplement and will work just as well.

Product arrive very fast. My dog loves the taste. After about one week I started to notice a big difference in his ability to jump. He also is more active and has interest in his toys again. I would highly recommend you give this a try if you are looking for something that will give your pup a less painful and more enjoyable life.

My one voracious dog scarfs these down, but my other more finicky dog won't touch them at all. They don't smell very good. I only hope they help. I just can't tell. I think maybe I'll try something else next time -- these are no use if my second doggie can't even manage to get one down.

Hard to tell if these work but my dog loves them and they give me peace of mind that we are taking care of her joints. She's a Great Dane so her breed is prone to hip and elbow issues and such. She just turned 3 and she's as good as new and loves to run and run right circles when she gets the zoomies and no injury's!

My old hound dog is picky about her treats...so I was afraid she wouldn't like this medicine. She loves them and I think I see a difference in her gait and mobility. It's only been 3 weeks. I love the advanced strength as I only have to give her one pill for the initial 4-6 weeks and then 1 pill every other day for maintenance. Good value!

This supplement has a decent cost, good ingredients nut they are hard and dry when they should be soft and moist. My dog is a food crazed half lab and she eats almost anything. It's really difficult to get her to eat these meaty looking 'treats' without putting something on them.
