Flexicose for pets is the same formula as the regular formula. There are bottles of Flexicose available with a “pet” label in place of the regular label. Only the label is different. At Cactus Canyon we only stock the bottles with the regular labels. There is always some confusion as to whether or not “Flexicose for Pets” is a different formula. It is not.

We, like many of our customers, share our bottle of Flexicose with our older dogs. We simply open one bottle at a time and use it for both us and our dogs. We estimate that 25% to 35% of our sales are to customers using Flexicose for pets. Of course many of these people are also using the product themselves. The causes, symptoms and treatments of arthritis in humans are very much the same as those found with dog arthritis.

Beware of using Aspirin for Dogs!

There are many examples where the same drug or supplement is prescribed for both dogs and humans. Aspirin is a prime example. We began giving aspirin (on our vet’s advice) to our old dog, Storm, when he began having problems with his arthritis. It worked very well for a few weeks, and then it almost killed him! Read more about the dangers of aspirin for dogs here.

Flexicose for pets works great, and we have many satisfied customers! Although not all dogs (or people) respond to glucosamine to the same degree, those that do respond well exhibit results which are nothing short of miraculous! We’ve had countless emails and phone calls from customers who are overjoyed with the results of giving their dogs Flexicose.

Flexicose is Much Easier Than Pills or Capsules!

Besides being highly effective in treating dog arthritis, another great benefit of using Flexicose to treat joint problems is its ease of administration! We have 5 dogs and have to give them pills from time to time. Since we do it all the time, it really isn’t that hard for us to give a dog a pill. But we sure are glad we don’t have to give our older dogs a pill (or several) of glucosamine every day. The liquid form is much easier! And the dogs no doubt prefer it too! Also, by all accounts the liquid form is much more easily absorbed than glucosamine found in pills and capsules.

We simply pour the required dose over the dogs’ food each day. Dogs simply don’t mind it or even act like it is there. Cats may need some coaxing when anything is different about their food. We have only had one customer tell us their dog did not want to eat his food with Flexicose on it. And I really wonder about that report.

Flexicose is Safe!

And don’t forget the greatest benefit of all for using Flexicose for pets! It is completely safe. There are virtually no side effects when using it for dog arthritis. It will work great in some dogs with arthritis, others may not respond quite as well, but at least there are no worries of harming the dog! Aspirin for dogs and Rimadyl side effects can be very dangerous. They can even kill dogs.

If your dog is suffering from arthritis or other joint problems, it would be wise to give glucosamine a try before using any other treatment options which could produce dangerous side effects. Besides aspirin, Flexicose is one of the lowest cost treatments for dog arthritis too.
