My 4 year old basset has been diagnosed with arthritis. Tried glucosamine supplements no help. He’s on carprofen right now which does wonders but I’m worried about his health other wise in the long term. Currently the plan is ease off carprofen to just as needed.
I’m here looking for advice on other methods and what nots that I can do to ensure a long happy (limp free) life for my pup. The only advice my vet gave was keep him lean which he is already! Maybe different dog food recommendations? We use IAMs currently but wondering about something different geared towards joint health? What else can I do to help him? Stretches? CBD? Acupuncture? What can I do? Any advice helps!
