How can I ease my dogs arthritis without Rx medication?
I have a 9 year old Rottweiler (named Belle) who is having some trouble with arthritis. She is becoming more stiff as the nights get colder, I’m doing what I can for her. I let her sleep on my bed, and on the couch when she’s in the living room. I am also giving her Bayer Asprin (I asked my vet about the appropriate dose), but she is still limping a bit through out the day. Is there anything else I can do the ease her arhritis pain without having to put her on a perscription medication?

I have a 9 yr old pug/boxer cross that also has arthritis problems. We give him glucosamine with chondroitin and aspirin once a day and it helps immensely. After the first couple doses he was right back to playing and was much happier. He has always had wet food mixed with his dry food so it was easy to hide it. We just got the glucosamine gel-caps that we could pull apart and mixed the powder from one pill as well as half an aspirin dissolved in water with his wet food.
