Is your dog suffering from joint pain? Seeing your pet, a loving member of your family, in pain can be very emotional. Sometimes they will just lay there and whine, while others will stare off with a blank stare. Even just to see him or her limping to get around the house can be enough to make you in tears, but do not worry; now there is something you can do for your dog when he or she is suffering from joint pain.
Dogs can suffer from joint pain for various reasons. My puppy suffers because of severe hip dysplasia, while other older dogs may suffer from hip dysplasia, arthritis, or just old age. There are many reasons for joint pain in dogs, and it is a very common issue. And now there are home remedies you can do to help relieve your dog of their arthritis like pains!
Home remedies are great to help relieve your dog of joint pain because they are 100% completely safe. While medications the veterinarian prescribe your dog are great, and may be needed at times, it is best to try to avoid them. Medications like Rymadyl will help relieve your dog's pain because it is an anti-inflammatory. But did you know you can help reduce the inflammation in your dog's joints with home remedies?
A few things that have severely helped my dog is massaging, ice, and heat therapy. He will generally fall asleep while I do this for him because he loves it so much. And that is saying a lot because before I do anything he is laying there with glossy eyes and a blank stare (like a baby with a dangerously high fever!).
My dog can be in substantial pain, but these home remedies relieve him of all his pain so he can get comfortable, sleep, and heal from his rough day. The next day, or maybe even with a few hours of rest, your dog will be back up and walking and running again. You will be addicted to these home remedies for joint pain, just like me!
