Hi, I wanted to get an opinion
My 14-year-old mixed doggy collie could not get up last week. She was lame on her back left leg. The vet said that she is not a candidate for surgery due to some arthritis issues in all of her other extremities. She limps on her front left foot. I hate to see her this way and was wondering if it will get better or is this the way she will always be? |

What has the vet diagnosed as the reason for the lameness? Is it two seperate issues for the back and front legs or that same thing?
What has the vet recommended?
If it is age related arthritus then there are several things you can do to ease the pain - supplements such as glucosamine and magnetic collars are said to help a great deal.
I just bought a collar for my mums 14 year old collie a few weeks ago to aid her arthritus and it is working wonders

Hi
My dog suffered from the same disease an effective and natural way to provide your pet with pain relief and improved mobility. Magnetic therapy dog collars are used to help conditions such as arthritis, rheumatoid diseases and hip displacia. I found the product at. www.healthmagnets.co.uk
Hope this helps you. |
