Question Baby Boy Needs Pain Meds: Suggestions?

The vet hasn't opened yet to give them a call.

I have an 8 year old yorkie that has some sort of knee/hip problem. 3 years ago I went for a walk in the woods with him. He worked hard running and jumping around. Later he came up soar. Same thing happened 2 years ago on our first walk of the year. Now on his first longer walk, which took place yesterday, I see he was limping/hobbling this morning while going to the door. It was only brief, yet broke my heart seeing him in any pain. This problem will be addressed by the doctor.

My question is: What pain medicine do you use for your yorkies? In what quantities?

I wouldn't dare give baby boy anything unless I knew it was safe for him. I'll also confer with the doctor, but am curious to ask y'all for now.

Thanks,

Matthias
