*hugs* Suz x x x x
its horrid to think of them as old isnt it 🙁 william is 10 now and i know i shouldnt have been shocked as i’ve seen it in his eyes but he is losing his sight 🙁
honey is another one like wills who doesnt ‘look’ old – i would never have put either of them at 9/10yrs old and i’m always getting ppl thinking he’s a young dog, wouldnt be suprised if you do too.

MemberPoor Diva she will be stiff tomorrow just as well she will stay in bed tomorrow ;D Bless
You should keep her on Glucosamine it may take a month plus to work but it really is good for older joints, trust me I know ::) I would give her some RhusTox it will help.
I would suspect she has a worn disc vets alway ex-ray limps on the limping leg but if they did the spine they would fine thats the problem
Hugs to the Diva

MemberAwww yes never thought of a worn disc- any point getitng them to xray – not much they can do i guess? To be honest at the time it was xrayed vet was next to useless, told me nothing showed and when i said – but somethings bothering her i got told yes well nothing on xray ::)
Rhus Tox – now i probably have some of that somewhere and can pick up glucosamine in a couple days – dose?
And yes she be sleeping tomorrow – :ok:

I know Bev has a good arthritis thing with glucosamine and turmeric (or something like that) Rafe on Glucosamine/chondroitin/MSM tabs (£15 for 180 if I remember from healthy direct or something like taht) coz he has probable OCD in front legs – he not had a proper limp now for about 12 months, and if he overdone it (16 mile run with my mum did it recently) and a bit sore I just give him a couple extra tabs for a couple days and it TOTALLY better. I know he a wee whippersnapper, but it helps him, might help your guys a bit…Hope Honey Diva gets better soon (and Tam, too Lassie).
[/quote]Tam is on Glucosamine ,Turmeric, Fish body oil, Green-lipped mussel and Bromelain and has Cartrophen injections every 6 weeks

MemberVal would it help Tam and would it be safe with all the other things he is having?
If so what potency would you advise?WORSE– in the morning, yearly and weather change aggravation, cold and damp weather, overexertion.
That is very much how he is, also stiff at night through overexertion ::)March 15, 2009 at 9:05 pm #86537Foxisle_crazy
