By Patrick Lewis


Dogs can suffer from arthritis pains just as people do. Some breeds are more prone to such problems, and overweight dogs often have similar issues. In any case, you can help your furry friend to live without pains, or at least make his life easier. There are a few highly efficient supplements that can make it happen, when it comes to natural arthritis pain relief for dogs.

Different supplements containing glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate with MSM are highly efficient when it comes to arthritis pains. Glucosamine will bring pain relief, while other compounds have strong anti-inflammatory effect. Your goal is not only to bring instant relief from pain, but also to heal damaged joints as much as it is possible. If you don't have a good vet, you should find one.

If your pet is overweight, it might be too much for his poor joints. With just a few pounds less, he would probably feel much better. Omega 3 supplements will help him lose a few pounds, they will improve his joints' lubrication and reduce inflammatory processes. This will also ease his pains and have generally good effect on his health.

Different enzymes and anti-oxidants are also great for your dog. They strengthen his immune system, and, as it is well-known by now, anti-oxidants fight free radicals and play an important role in keeping both human and dog's bodies healthy and strong. Cherry flavonoids also benefit joint's health, by strengthening collagen structures within connective tissues.

Some plants are also good in arthritis treatments, for example turmeric. This plant is good for cardiovascular system and blood circulation in damaged areas, and it promotes mobility. Different essential oils might also be quite useful in this. Just a few minutes of a gentle massage could make a great difference and ease the pain. Don't forget to provide some soft bed for your sick pet.

Swimming i warm water might also be a very good idea. You might find such treatments for dogs in your neighborhood, or take your pet for a swim somewhere, if you can arrange it. It could be very good for him, because it is much easier to move when in water, and this is one really good training for any dog, or any person suffering from arthritis.

Acupuncture is another idea you might find really useful. It is proven that acupuncture treatment bring relief from arthritis pains, but they can also promote blood circulation in the area surrounding the joint, and this might provide long-term effects, strengthening the tissues that support this painful part. It takes a few weeks to get the first good results, but it is worth it.

Gentle massage, slow walks, swimming, acupuncture and good nutrition are all important in this process. Different supplements can also be highly beneficial. It is proven that most supplements used by people can be useful for animals as well. But, you shouldn't give such supplements to your pet without consulting your vet first. Expert vet should calculate the appropriate doses for each animal.
