I mean is there anything wrong with giving him Arthritis Supplements, or some Joint Treats?? Or giving him the Cosequin?? I know he has it for sure, I dont see a problem giving him those pills?? |
I don't see a problem with giving the Cosequin b/c it's good for all joints, not just the knees. But if his lifting is due to something else, the cosequin may be an unnecessary added expense. Did you read the thread about Jackson limping? We all thought it was LP, it turned out to be lymes disease. I'm just saying talk to your vet first.
Is there a humane society near you? That's where I take Uni, I go to the one in Garden Grove, I know that's far for you though. It's a bit of a wait, but you can see a vet for a $15 office visit fee. Esp since a vet can diagnose without xray, may be worth it.
