Nutramax Filaquin Anal Gland & Digestive Health Peanut Butter Flavored Soft Chew Supplement for Dogs, 90 count

I recently adopted an adult Cavalier King Charles dog who had major "scooting" issues as his glands were not emptying properly. After a few times expressing at the vet, as well as using a competitor's supplement without much success, we tried Filaquin, which I had not been aware of before. This was exactly what we needed. It worked perfectly! Our other dog has used a liver supplement for years, also made by Nutramax, the manufacturer of Filaquin. That gave me confidence to try it. The price is very good for the quantity received, and the product contains healthy ingredients such as psyllium husk, apple fiber, and pre and postbiotics. The flavoring is roasted peanut, which was not his favorite initially, but he is used to it now, and happily eats it. This soft chew is also scored, so is easy to break in half for feeding, or for measuring. It comes in a 90 chew easy close bag, which is helpful. I very happily recommend this product to others.

I don't know what's going on with this product. The first two orders were fine. No strong unpleasant odor. Next two orders, unpleasant odor that can be smelled through the bag. I was afraid it might make my dogs sick and decided not to give it to them. I contacted Nutramax and spoke to CS. She was going to file a report and email me the report number. But I've never heard back. Chewy rep was wonderful...had me return the smelly Filaquin and refunded my money. I decided to try Filaquin one more time and sadly still dealing with strong unpleasant odor. I see it has the same lot# as the two bags I had returned. (The bag that didn't have the odor had a different lot#.) I won't try this product again unless in a store where I can check to see if it has an odor (since it can be smelled through the bag) and it was helpful to my dog.

I can’t say enough good things about these soft chews! My dog absolutely loves the taste, so there’s no struggle at all to get her to take them. I also love that they’re made by Nutramax, a brand I already trust for quality and science-backed supplements. The chews are soft, easy to break apart, and gentle on her stomach. It’s such a relief to have found something that really works. My dog is clearly more comfortable and happy and I’m happy not having to worry about these issues anymore. Highly recommend this to any dog parent dealing with the same problem!

No more dragging, these are appetizing and he looks forward to his treat. They contain many of the needed ingredients for success. They have apple pectin, and are filled with fiber. My toy Aussie is not a fan of high fiber foods, and so we are required to find other ways to add fiber to his diet, these seem like the perfect solution. I was so happy to see another option by this brand as I have used their other products for many years! These will be a staple in our house!
