The article below, from The BARk, talks about how approximately 60% of dogs over the age of 7 suffer from degenerative joint disease (aka Arthritis). Some signs include our pups being reluctant to run as fast or far as they used to in the past, seeming stiff after lying down and getting back up, sleeping more, and maybe even turning his nose up at the games he used to love.
Please read on for more information and ideas on how to help our pets manage pain, and hopefully rehab in order to maintain their strength and mobility for years to come!
