If your furry best friend experiences difficulty getting up, tires easily or seems stiff, he/she may be suffering from arthritis. In fact, arthritis is known to affect 1 out of 5 adult dogs in the U.S. So what can a hooman do to help? We’ve compiled a quick list of tips to help get your pupper’s energy and mobility back on track.
- Check the scale. Being overweight puts added stresses on your dog’s joints which can result in joint damage and arthritis.
- Feed your dog the good stuff. Research shows that (EPA), an omega-3 fatty acid, can help reduce inflammation.
- Take a walk. Light to moderate exercise helps keep your dog’s joints mobile.

- When in doubt, chat to your local vet.
