Dog Arthritis Treatment

She is a fat chihuahua

I wouldn’t recommend that you give Any animal ANY over the counter drugs without first talking to a vet. It could kill your dog.

I think that the usual supplements will be more beneficial than aspirin..
My GSD was diagnosed with arthritis in her knees, she suffered from internal bleeding when she was prescribed Metacam, this was apparent when her stools became almost black. I investigated other meds on the internet and discovered Flexadin. It’s about £70 from the vets and £20 on the internet. It contains Glucosamine and Chondroitin which help enormously with pain and bone problems; however it also contains Devils Claw which also helps with pain. Later I accidentally discovered that Seraquin has other virtues because as well as the above stuff it also contains Turmeric, this is about £60 from the vets and £16 on the internet. My ten year old is now chasing rabbits and she appears to be pain free. However it can take a while to show its effects. My dog is 34kgs, consequently she is heavier than your dog and her tablets cost about £12 per month.
