    Default Joint Medication

    My old man has a limp from duck season that just hasn't gone away. Anyone have any suggestions for a supplement that will help relieve some pain? Fish oil maybe?

    Liquid Health is a supplement I used to sell all the time. It's glucosamine you pour over their food or shoot in their mouth with a syringe if they're not a bowl cleaner.

    How about just take him to a vet and see what a professional says?

    Glenn if you are being serious what is your recomendations .

    I don't think it's serious. It's bothers him on some days more than others. Weather seems to make it worse.

    Your dog could be in considerable pain. Dogs are pretty stoic. If it has persisted this long, it could well be an injury like OCD (Osteochondritis dissecans). Take him to the vet.

    K.I.S.S method

    You cant treat what you dont know.
    Saying "i think its _____" is not enough to go on.

    A vet (or at least someone that pretends to be one) said to get a diagnosis. I think that's a darn good idea.
    Ugh. Stupid people piss me off.

    Hell must be freezing as I agree with 2th on this.

    Don't shortchange your dog's future by trying to guess at this.

    Good luck.
