How much is a small fortune? .
I will also ask the Vet about Cosequin.. Wow Sleet is 13!!! I didnt know that.

If I bought it from my vet, about 95 bucks a bottle(lasts about a month). I buy it off a website from the States and pay about 150 USD for six bottles.

I forget she's 13 sometimes. She doesn't act her age most of the time. A couple days a month she needs a pain killer--usually because she forgot she's 13 and played too hard with the young dogs!

I took my daughters' German Sheperd to our Vet last June because I noticed she was not as eager to go for those walks when she visited us.

She was given Synovi G3 Soft Chews~ I had to adjust the dosage to her weight, (6 per day to start with) then, after maintence, 2 each day.


These suppliments are expensive, but I noted a difference within the following months.
I'd be sure to have each dog seen by your Vet~

I found some great information on a Thread created by Pnance~ but, I don't know how to cross post it

RB Buddy used Cosequin for years. The vet used to joke that buddy
could be a Poster Dog for the stuff. He didn't have good hips to begin
with, but the Cosequin gave him years of good active health.
