Veterinary Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs)
honestly if your dog is in a little pain like when we sprain our ankle we do not take pain pills for that so sometimes pain is your ally as they will rest it and stay off it. If you give pain pills then they will walk on it more and possibly hurt it worse. After dd was so sick from metacam the vet told me pain is a good ally and i wanted to bop him as i should have held off on pain meds and just rested her as that would have been better than the month i dealt with a vomitting dog and diarrhea from getting colitis from metacam
