Dog General Pain

If your Dog has general pain your vet may suggest a few different forms of treatment.
A few types of treatments are listed on our site.
Glucosamine or Nutraceuticals for your dog's general pain due to old age,
the beginnings of arthritis, or injury.
Stronger medications are available by prescription, but some have side effects that can damage organs and shorten your dog's life.

Before administering any medications to your dog, consult your veterinarian. Doggie beds and cooling/heating mats can comfort dogs if they suffer from aching joints and muscles.
Booties to protect the pads of the feet and warm sweaters for cold climates can help comfort dogs. Pain medications include carprofen, etodolac and piroxicam. Remember that dogs do not speak so we should always pay very close attention to our pets health.
