Is there anything else that can be done for my dogs arthritis? General Dog Discussions
I have an 18 year old Chihuahua/Beagle mix and she's developed pretty bad arthritis in her back legs and hips. Currently she is taking Rimadyl and Tramadol twice a day for the pain, but since it's become colder, the medication doesn't seem to be as effective.I try to take her for a short walk every night to help stretch things out, but I'm afraid it might be causing more damage then good. I'm not sure.Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas about how to help her? I'll care her vet for advice,but I'm just wondering if anyone on here has any thoughts.
