Hi have an older golden retreiver just came down with back leg problems hard to walk on own problem standing ect. Started some recovery sa was wondering if this would be enough to possible fix her for while and how long it might take to work. Dog healthy for age loves life eats and drinks like horse be shame to put her down for shaky legs do you know anything else she could take to extend her life abit !!

Aloha Karla --thanks for your info:: my G.retriever is 14years young and just a bummer that the back legs don't support her right now , as she loves life and try's hard to get going ect. Ya she doesn't like the new doggie diapers either.
Now you know her age maybe you could possible know if this RECOVERY SA I bought might help her to get up and running? Just didn't want to waste abunch of money on vets bills if possible , had a bad experience with my cat once got some soap in its eyes next thing it was having lazer eye surgery crazy so much for my Maui Vacation!!!   Thanks TMAX!!!!!

Hi tmax.....You don't say how old she is, but more than likely, this is old age Arthritis as the weather becomes cooler.....Just the same for humans.....

Yes, a Vet visit is in order as they can prescribe the correct anti-inflammatories.....DO NOT to attempt to treat this w/OTC products......Ibuprofen is TOXIC to dogs & one dose of Aspirin can cause a Gastric bleed.....It is not worth the risk!

Prescribed meds. for Arthritis from your Vet will help her feel much better for many years......The sooner, the better.......Karla
