Dog/canine Arthritis

By Matthew Seigneur, Fri Dec 9th

Arthritis in canines is just as common as it is in humans. Thetype of associated with dogs is osteoarthritis whichis caused by the degradation of the cartilage within a joint.

Cartilage is what keeps the bones in a joint from rubbingtogether. As the cartilage breaks down it causes the function ofthe joint to reduce causing pain and stiffness.

In the beginning canine is uncomfortable, but insevere cases it causes extreme pain as the bones are rubbingdirectly against each other.


Signs to watch for are favoring a certain limb repeatedly,trouble when sitting or standing, not as active, stiffness intheir joints, reluctance to run or jump, and lethargy. There isno cure for canine yet, but there are several goodtreatments.

Pain relieving lotions are one of the safest and best ways toease your dogs pain associated with canine arthritis. Your vetmay prescribe some medicine for


swelling and discomfort.

A new treatment is now being used which is dietary. Glucosamineand Chondroitin have been found to be helpful in reducing thedegeneration of dog’s bones due to canine and alsoaids in the reducing inflammation.

This combination attracts fluid into the cartilage between thejoints, which helps the body repair damaged joints while keepingthe destroying enzymes under control.

The most important factor is to relieve your dog of discomfortassociated with canine so can live a better life. Healso needs to move the joints so the canine does notbecome severe.

If you have noticed any of these signs in your dog, make anappointment with your vet so you can better know how to treatyour dog if in fact he does have canine arthritis.

With the proper treatment you can help improve your dog’squality of life, which is what you and your dog both want.
