Hmmm... at the other fosterer's she's with four other dogs and goes for long walks in the woods almost daily.
I REALLY do like your advice a lot. I'd hope other people would consider it before putting their dogs on pills long term. Every dog is different though and respond to different treatments.
And i never said i was going to keep her on the pills for the rest of her life... I just said she's going to have to be treated for it for the rest of her life. That can imply any number of things.

I figure more activity tightened up the muscles down there for her and thank goodness no more major accidents.

Please, if your dog is arthritic look into getting it Elk Velvet Antler. Look up my posts on it, PM me, or look it up on a search engine; but please if you love your dog and want it to live many more years consider this option. I've seen so many posts on here about dogs needlessly suffering. I can't make a new post about EVA every time so this plea is going here. EVA also helps with other ailments such as anemia.
