Arthritis in Dogs

[Alane]

I have not found a glucosamine/chondroitin application that I can easily give my dog. He just won’t eat what other people say their dogs love no matter how hard I try to hide it from him! :wall: . I have been putting yucca root (dried) and Echinacea (also dried) in his food and he eats that. The Echinacea I use for a couple of weeks and then break for a couple of weeks. I also put chlorophyll in his water. He eats these just fine. Now, however, he is limping worse, mainly when he first rises from laying. He could have injured a limb while I was at work, but I cannot even determine which limb. ARRRGH! :rant: Thank you for your help.

Hi Alane,

Have you tried mixing the herbs/glucosamine in a little canned food or meatbased baby food? That’ll often do the trick.

I developed a formula for arthritis for Silver Lining Herbs that works really well.

Don't use herbs or combine herbs with medications or use them during lactation or pregnancy without talking with your healthcare provider.

Thank you so much. I will order some today :notworthy:

I’m sorry to bother you again. Is the supplement okay to use with a history of one really bad bout with pancreatitis. No further incidents.

No bother.

Should be fine.
