Alternative medicines?

Hi All,

My GSD Rocky has had a bit of a rough time and I'm currently waiting to have some x-rays done.

It seems like he might have some arthritic problems and he's had a lot prescribed medicines and I'd like to give him some natural products or medicines to help him.

Any ideas would be very welcome.

sami is a jewel in the rough
Try Rhustox its a homeopathic one you can get on the net or at a herbalists. It doesnt work for all dogs for example my Sami who is 13 and had it for about 3 years is fantastic on it, can hardly walk without it but Leo it has no effect on.
