ilovemyfirefighter14 asked:


My dog is about 11 years old, recently he has had some problems just getting around. The vet gave me a special food for him but is there a vitamin or a pill of some sort to give to help other than his food? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

   Feeding a raw diet will either decrease or totally clear away your dog;s arthritis and I’m not kidding! And giving your dog chicken wings will supply it with lots of calcium and glucasimine.

    When our dog was having hip problems, our vet suggested we try Glucosamine, just like you use for humans when they have joint problems. Even though it turned out not to be arthritis, it still helped her.

    The dropper like he takes it seems to give our vet told us to work also.
    For over year now and it right from the taste because he wants it works or likes the taste because he takes it works or likes the taste because he takes it seems to work also either he takes it.

    The inflammation also its good to keep the joints moving so exercise is still needed at gentle pace.
    The inflammation also can get steroid prescription that could help also you can help also its good to keep the joints moving so exercise is still needed at.

    i had a 16 yr old b *tch who was riddled with arthritus and i asked my vet what to give her. He said cod liver oil caps
    they worked a treat for her
    one cap a day and you will give ur dog another lease of life
    its natural it wont hurt him just improve his life
    good luck

    Deramaxx. I have a 9 year old yellow lab and it works miracles. Ask your vet for a prescription. It truly was a miracle drug for us and still is.
