Arthritis in Labradors

Question:
What are my treatment options for arthritis in my Labrador?

Answer:
There are a number of treatment options for confirmed osteoarthritis in dogs including weight management, polysulphated glycosaminoglycans (PGAGs), glucosamine-chondroitin supplements and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAIDs).  A visit to your regular veterinarian to discuss these options in more detail is advised.
