My 12 yr. Dalmation has developed Arthrits in her shoulders. She is taking 1 low dose asprin a day, via my vet. It helps, I am concerned this may effect her belly. Do you have a sugestions on a natural jiont inflamitory.

Hi,
Sorry to hear that your dog is getting a bit stiff in old age now. Aspirin can certainly help with the pain. One thing i would suggest for her arthritis is a Magnetic collar. I have had good results on a Larbrador and also a Greyhound who were both extremely stiff, both owners commented that they had seen a vast improvement in their mobility and their general demenour. If i can help further with this then please email me as i am a distributor for Bioflow magnetic collars.
Also recommended for arthritis is Glucosamine and Condroitin supplements that can be added to their diet. These can be found at local health stores.
Regards, Selena
