    People dismiss a dogs unsteady legs for old age but sometimes it's just sore paws. When a dog has sore paws he wont want you to touch them so you have to be creative. The way I cut my dog's nails is I place a bowl with a little milk (can mix it with some water) in it in front of him, he has to be lying down when drinking. Then I cut one nail. It takes time. You have to repeat the process. Sometimes I only cut four nails a day. It's made a huge difference in his life. He walks with more vigour, he sits and gets up way faster and easily.

      Technically he may not be a doctor anymore. He has a video explaining it but basically I’m saying because he gives honest information he didn’t fit in with the rip people off club and his license to practice revoked.

    This was perfect. We just adopted a senior dog a few days ago and she has been in a lot of discomfort, getting up and down. It’s a struggle, but I also see the very audible clicking. We have occasional crankiness at our other dog who usually minds their business. The struggle to get up. This gives me good intel and points to share with our vet this upcoming week. To hopefully medication as needed to give her some relief.

    We adopted a senior 🐶 plott hound 11. She was the best match for my senior golden this past November. This video really helped me identify what was wrong with her. I knew it was more than hip displaecia, because of how upset she would get about a few areas in her back. She was crated at the shelter around 7 years; which had health impacts but she is just as spunky as can be. Joint support has helped tremendously. Our vet gave her anti-inflammatory Rx, but we only use it very sparingly because I don’t want it to impact her internal health (liver and kidneys) which is good. We also gated the stairs, so she doesn’t climb them more than to go to bed. We lift her also as needed. I am looking forward to watching some of your other natural remedies videos. Quality of life is of paramount importance and you definitely have some 👍 tips.

    I'm so glad that I can text as much as I want in this comment section, Louis is such a good boy he knows he's helping you help others, I can read dogs very well and he is just letting you do the norm. He's used to this from you and plays along every time. RIP Lewis 💙. Thank you Luis for all you have done for us, you're such a good boy letting Daddy teach us how to take care of our fur babies. Thank you Andrew Jones for helping all of us help our pets. I'm sure you know how dachshunds front legs are and how it's hard for them to spread apart from the chest. That's the way my dachshund Chloe is and when I told the that's assistant that her front legs don't spread apart and be very careful when removing her tumor in her armpit. She told me when dogs are under they tend to be more relaxed and able to spread apart. As a pet owner I'm very aware of my dog in every way since I'm home everyday and she is my caregiver❤ I noticed her limping but I can't remember if it was right after surgery or a week or so later. If they accidentally put her arm apart more than it should go what muscle would they have torn or possibly hurt? I am not accusing I am just trying to figure out why after removing the tumor she now has this limp. When she walks her head Bobs up and down as she is not wanting to put too much pressure but yet she is walking on her left front leg. What's really strange is she prefers to run. I have noticed she will wait for me to get 12 feet in front of her when I ask her if she's ready to eat and then she runs into the kitchen. Now I know she has addictions like a cat does with a string. She has to chase the dogs along the fence when I'm outside no matter how hard I try to train her not to. She also still chases squirrels (God bless her) dachshunds love to Chase. I think I've wrote enough for now even though I have so much to ask. So reminder the question I have for you today is if her front legs were spread apart more than they should what muscle could possibly be injured? Should I be keeping her in the laundry room restricted of normal activities to help this healing process? Of course letting her out for potty breaks. Thank you for everything you do.😊👍💜 oh yeah one more thing, I'm able to pull her whole arm backwards towards her rear as she's lying down and if I were to try to stretch the arm forward towards her head she pulls back

    Thank you so much for this video. I've just been looking for more information about degenerative myelopathy after my dog was diagnosed with it and came across you. My dog hates going to the vet, and with coronavirus I wasn't able to go in the room with him, so wasn't sure how much/how well they were able examine him. They said he had been difficult to handle, but it seemed that the pain was in his back. After going through your video, it seems the pain is definitely not in the back, but in the hip. Might film my dog's reactions to take with me to a future appointment so they can get a better idea of how to help us. Fantastic video, and very well explained.

    Been watching your videos since my boy was a wee lad, he's now a senior and for the first time I have found him struggling to stand or walk at some points. He has stopped jumping up on to surfaces he used to leap at no problem, and drags his back legs (and gets tired more) on walks... Tonight I had to literally slide him downstairs on his bed so I could get him on the same floor as to door out to potty, not knowing what was wrong, in a panic... Thank you for your videos on how to help him, first place I went to for advice when I realized the signs were adding up to arthritis, hip dysplasia or some such. With these tips, I can better source what COULD be wrong and help ease his discomfort, while we wait for the appointment with the vet to do an exam.
    Gods all bless you, so glad I subbed to you all those years ago now! My boy Bran (like the muffins and Game of Thrones character... should have thought that name through better) and I both thank you.

    Thank you for the taking the time to differentiate the three problems. My GS woke up one morning a few days ago and was not able to move both hind legs , she is happy and is eating and is able to sit up , I use a sling to walk her. This is the most heart breaking thing to see. I did order 95% Curcumin which has flaxseed salmon oil and a few other things you mentioned would help. All I can say I hope and pray a cure is found for these innocent creatures. I noticed that this condition worsened when I gave her carprofen., which I have now stopped

I reduced her activity and already give her turmeric though now that I've seen your pain management video, it looks like I need to be combining turmeric with another herb (forgot the name) to be most effective.

    • @alizaday
      @alizaday 7 лет назад +1

      No its not poisonous, not like they supply it in a liquid, My dog was 18kg and started at a quarter tsp, It is quite safe, I do not know about the capsules.

    • @nickilovesdogs8137
      @nickilovesdogs8137 7 лет назад +2

      Thank you so much Pink. I just researched Arnica. It gets great reviews from all kinds of people including Dr. Andrew Weil. I looked for it in capsule dried herb form but they don't sell it anywhere. It is only available in homeopathic and highly diluted form in liquid or sugar tablets. What is the company you got it from? Does it contain alcohol? I will get it for Kenny. My husband is a bit quick with giving him the hard stuff from the vet. He is on it currently but it seems to only last as long as regular pain tablets last which is a few hours only. This is all so difficult I can't describe it in words. I love Kenny more than anything in the entire infinite universe and I live in worries and eternal sadness.

Again, Thank You, You're A Godsend! Have a blessed day, ~ B ... (aka Link's Mommy)

    (HUG) You are the best Dr. love Louis he is so gentle. We love our pets so much, what natural healthy thing can you give to them when they have pain I have a (100lb lab 7 years old). My Lab walks fine, then, sometimes when we can't walk him for a while because of weather, he has a slow time getting up or walking upstairs, or his back legs seem weak then.

    Thanks doc,
    Our 14 yr old bubba has continuing hip dysplasia and i try to help him to get down or up in a car by carrying him. We have him on powdered joint care and natural pain meds. He yelps sometimes and when i tried to pet him this morning tried to bite me out of a deep sleep. I barely touched his shoulder. He's able to walk, and still enjoys walking in the dog park in our complex. Could the areas that he doesn't want to be touched nerve damage, cancer?
    Your advice for castor oil when he swolled a plastic bag, saved us from putting him down. We went to 2 vets, they wanted to operate, $$$$. Last vet was Tennessee college for vet care. Sad what vets are all about today $$$$ not animal care

    My dog sapphira is 13. Easter night after dinner she came and sat by me and as I reached out to pet her she yelped & cried & began jumping around all worked up. Now the night before easter/easter morning... sapphira slept in my bed with me. My mattress sits on top of a box spring and which both sit on top of a metal frame with wheels. So it is a bit of a jump. She jumps up and down when we play, she was still playing fetch which I frequently make her lay down, stay, sit pretty, left shake right shake and then go get it... she was jumping in n out of my vehicle...
    I took her to an emergency vet hospital and then since then a thrive affordable vet who said they support the emergency hospitals diagnosis which is arthritis.... and in her case if so it is incredibly severe extreme arthritis. She does hurt standing up she starts backing up or trying to run from the pain while yelping and crying out... she does everything in her power to not get up... she drags herself around with her front paws ="( she's not eating really ( im barely able to get her to eat all her pills in wet food thats it) and she will NOT DRINK WATER! The biggest thing I try to stress is that this all happened basically over night.... and her meds are not helping at all. Shes still in excruciating pain, which in turn is making her so incredibly depressed its so heartbreaking. A week ago she was up and down perfectly fine... now she just keeps her down won't move except to drag herself and I can't get her to engage with me or anything: treats, toys, her bone, her ball.... she just puts her head down like she is in trouble... she is a collie mix so playing and running around is like, her livelihood... this is so heartbreaking...

    Thank you for making this and all of your videos! They're wonderful and have helped me keep my fur babies healthy and cared for. My 7 year old German shepherd, Havoc, just began dragging his rear, left foot the other day. He first began limping and walking / running slower last September prior to the now dragging foot. I immediately took him to the vet for an examination and they did one x-ray, but he suggested I get him a costly MRI to diagnose & confirm what exactly is going on. I have been monitoring him and giving him flax seed oil, gaba pentin & some tramadol when he is showing signs of pain until i can get a better diagnosis. I don't think it is neurological (due to tapping his knee), so does that rule out degenerative myelopathy ?

    Thanks for the video. My 10 year old chihuahua has become growly at me within the past month particularly when I touch his right side. I notice he tends to bite his right hind leg. His walking is normal but I don't want to try to move his leg because I don't want to get bit. I can't get into to see the vet for another 3 weeks. Wonder if you had a video or can do a video on what you recommend for supplements.

    Thank you doctor. This year my dog was diagnosed with Cushings. And around the same time showed muscle atrophy in his back legs. He quickly lost ability to get up on his own. I have to pick his hind end up and be sure his feet are flat. It's very stressful for both he and I. Now he is refusing to eat about 90% of the time. It's heart breaking. He isn't showing signed of pain, but I'm not sure really what signs I should look for. If you haven't done a program on signs of pain, it would be a good one to do. Many thanks.

    This is an old video but the trick with coffee is not to rely on it in the morning. If your goal is no more than one or two cups a day, then don't drink it until by the time your first or second dose expires, you can crash comfortably at home. When you start drinking it in the morning to wake up, you're in trouble for the rest of the day because the crash isn't worth the minimal jump start.

    Hi! I'm knew to your channel and so excited to find you!! My babies are a Male & female shih tzu (8yrs old). My Male first developed a really bad almost fishy smell in his mouth which I had made a vet appt for cause I was really worried. However, now somehow it's gotten so much better and almost back to doggy breath so I'm thinking maybe he had food stuck in his gums somewhere I could reach abd the dental stkcks helped it out(?).
    But if you could gift tips.on what those harsh stinky breaths, would be great. Nevertheless, my main concern now is in grooming Milo(male), I found a soft growth (just looks puffy and some redness & even a little darker brown stain over) on his right knee. It looks like when a person bumps pretty hard against something and has a bruised lump. I haven't noticed him in any pain, but notoces it got a bit larger than when I groomed 2wks ago and when I did tried the massages you recommended, he wouldn't let me extend that leg almost at all. Omg I am so worried... if that's cancer or advanced arthritis I overlooked and my baby is in pain!😢 😭 I am of course taking him to vet for xrays (waitingcuz they were booked!). So if you read this and can give me any idea of why this can possibly be, I'd appreciate. Thank you!

    Wow you did more in this video than my vet did with my dog and I paid her 100. It’s heartbreaking for me. My dog seems to look like he’s loosing his muscles or something in his back legs. He goes on walks ok but can’t seem to climb anymore like lift himself to my car window so he can stick his head out which is his favorite thing to do. The doc has him on prednisone and pain meds. I’m not sure what to do. He seems to lost his appetite . Any advice ? Thank you

    Hi I love your work. I was wondering if you could do a video regarding exercising dogs period and limitations of exercising dogs. Patrick, a 6 year old German Shepherd for instance... What would be too long of a walk? Patrick's owner uses him as transportation virtually. How much is too much? Do you please do a video on whether this is acceptable. And what signs to look for that might indicate that it's excessive. Thank you so much!

    hi, i have a 10 year old 48 lb lab/pointer mix and she developed an acute limp. Shes very athletic and active up to that day went i noticed her limp. After 2 weeks on carprofen and short leash walks it didnt seem to be getting much better. On the 16th day she tried to chase a squirrel and has been limping worse ever since . She got x-rays 3 weeks after the initial limp showing no arthritis, nothing broken, all knee tendons seem just fine. She has some back pain and some spinal vertebrae fusing as shown in your video. her hips dont show dysplacia. the one hip that is the bad leg shows a little seperation within the socket which may be an indicator of a dislocation possibly? the day before the xrays she tried to get on the bed and lifting up from a full squat i heard a Pop ans she winced... shes has a hard time squatting to defecate and almost to the point of falling over. her muscles are already atrophying on that leg. the vet wants me to do an mri which is $1500 and he says hes 90% sure its a torn muscle. for some reason i feel its more than that. should i put a ehmer sling on her? should i just wait a bit longer? today she was pretty much only using her 3 legs to hop around... Im very worried because normally nothing would slow her down. Thank you so much for any insight!
