Bumping this for you. This is my personal opinion. I would most certainly have it checked by your vet and possibly be sent on to a specialist. I have been told that it is better to take care of issues before they get out of hand. There are also meds that can be given that help temporarily---pain and glucosemine. This brand has been recommended:
Cosequin Regular Strength (90 capsules)
