You can help slow/prevent arthritis in your pet by
maintaining an ideal weight and encouraging regular
low impact exercise such as walking or swimming.
~What about a dog that might already have arthritis?
Does your older dog seem "stiff" upon rising, reluctant
to go on walks, or just less active? He or she may be
silently suffering from arthritis. Yearly exams and
arthritis pain medication can help bring back that
"spring in his/her step".
**Tylenol, Aspirin, NSAIDs like Aleve and many other
over the counter medicines are potentially deadly if
given to pets. Never give drugs to your pet without
consulting your veterinarian first.
