I concur with LadyJane. The vet should have done an Xray to rule out hip dysplasia and or Leggs Calves Perthes Disease. The vet should have been able to tell if your boy has Luxating Patella and or if an ACL tear is also suspected.


I don't know how old your boy is but his movement patterns are definitely abnormal - as you can tell.


Depending upon what is going on with your boy - yes there are some natural remedies that can assist in arthritis and hip dysplasia - but you need to get a good diagnosis first. Natural remedies will not cure any arthritic condition but can help/assist your dog live a more comfortable life.
