Answer:

I have used Glyco Flex for years with several large breed dogs. In the past when I would let us run out, I could really tell that they hurt alot worse after missing doses.... I don't do that anymore! It served one of my large breed dogs to over 15 years of age as well! I buy it on this website. There is mutliple versions to choose from as well. With our last Rottweiler puppy we got I even started him on low doses as a preventative measure. That seems to be going well as well. He is 5 years old now and showing no signs at all of slowing down!

I put both my elderly bulldogs on Coesquin DS, and it has made a big difference. They have a lot more engery, and don't seem as achy first thing in the morning. Great product, highly recommend it.

Answer:

We've had much success with the combination of Cosequin DS & Adequan (which now can be administered within the skin). The combination of these two arthritic formulas work in different parts of the joints. I would recommend doing research in this area and under the advise of an orthopedic surgeon or a knowledgeable vet. Good luck!

Answer:

Get the dog a telescoping ramp. Then you can telecope it all the way out and the dog can use that to gradually get into the car. Or else buy him or her a harness so you can pick the dog up like a piece of luggage and help it into the car.

Drs. Foster and Smith ComfortLift Carrier - I just bought this for my 12-year-old Schnoodle - he weighs around 40 pounds. It slips under their belly, and has handles. It's really made well, and padded so it's my comfy than picking them up with your hands.

Answer:

I purchased the most expensive orthopedic feathertop bed for my dog who limps from time and time again.... Now that he sleeps on a orthopedic memory foam bed (along with myself with him) his limping has come to almost non existent. That bed is completely top quality and everyone should one have for a dog 60lbs +.
