I keep watching videos on how to possibly cure my dog's arthritis and seizures. I've come to realize there's nothing much I can do, he's an old dog. He's a good dog. I am not ready to accept that he will pass soon, but it is a process. Thank you for this video anyways, it warms my heart that Pearl is receiving the help she needs.
Same my dog has arthritis in both knees and lower back we have done everything to help slow it but hes to the point were he cant do anything for himself anymore we literally move him because he can't anymore I'm so sad about it he's lived a happy 14 years but I think it's time to put him down 😞
I’m so sad. Just visited the vet today and found out my doggy has slight arthritis in his knees. I’m so so scared I don’t want to see him suffering in the future. I would do anything for him. He’s the only thing that makes me happy and I’m scared he won’t get proper attention when I go to college
@@samyray2k851 my Big boy (cane corso) has struggled with arthritis for the last few years - always worse when the weather changes (like mine) and after trying several different things, I finally found a regimen that works! I started him on CBD oil each day, plus probiotics- a natural supplement that has a few different herbs in it- plus a heavy metal detox spray - Within a week he no longer whimpered or cried - he suddenly became more like a puppy again, smiling all the time and playing so cute .. it’s incredible- I started this new protocol because he couldn’t touch One of His paws to the ground and was limping - No swelling/Infection etc.. and since my vet couldn’t get him in immediately, I started experimenting - After Day 5 his paw is perfect again, in addition to being more playful and energetic! Yay!!
I am your overseas fan from Thailand and I have just ended my dog's life from his arthritis. As I can't take any longer period to see him suffering when he had tried so hard to stand up on his own, as one of his front leg was too hurt for him to use in addition his two back legs had not enough strength to support himself while standing and walking. For the past almost six months his arthritis got worst even I tried everything to ease him by taking food supplements such as firstly Antinol twice a day including fish oil later just a month before euthanasia ( hope it is correct) changing to SC ll. in replacement of Antinol as recommended by my veterinarian. I did follow your video regarding massage for arthritis in dogs. I am now in grief of pet lost. It is really hurtful feeling because I have guilt for ending life of my beloved dog. Just hope it won't' take me long to get over this state of grief. Sorry if my English knowledge is not good.
Thanks Doc, you helped me ease Kuba,my Black Lab, across the Bridge. And helped us make the decision that he couldn’t. How painful and empty his leaving left us. A new dog came to us late one January night, he had been left in a crate for over a week, in a Motel room by his self. A groomer that works for my daughter at VCA Portsmouth Virginia, ,was alerted to him,and rescued him from the Bad Situation. She brought him to us that night,and we will take care of him from now on. He is a Black Lab/Newfoundland Retriever. His lock up added to severe arthritis in his right front leg ( gives him a bad limp, x-rays showed the arthritis. He was 2 years old in January, and weighs in at 147 #. We have him on a dosage our Vet recommended , and I try to take him swimming at least once a week in the River,salt Water, since temperature is warming up some.. What else can I do, moist heat,dry heat, how about massage for his front leg. Do you have a videotape showing how to correctly use that method ?? Thanks for sharing your thoughts and treatments, with your fans. Truly,,Paul
when I brought my dog to the veterinary clinic , they said that they were gona operate on her leg and her elbow but I said no to the idea. Then they said that swimming is another option I can try with my dog. But these massages you are truly doing for purl really help my dog too causing I'm copying the techniques your doing. thank you Andrew for these video's.
Thank you for making this video. My black lab is a healthy weight but has bad knees. The veterinarian noticed a couple of years ago just by the way she was sitting, and with the cold wet weather and older age, she's starting to show signs of discomfort. She's grunting and deep sighing every time she lies down, she lays vs. sits, and she has a very hard time getting comfortable or staying comfortable. I'm going to try these massages for her. She doesn't limp and can still climb stairs and jump OK, but we've had her on Dasaquin MSM (recommended dose) for years now, thankfully. I've also put heating pads on her hip/knee areas while she rests. Thank you again!
You should have your dog on a glucosamine supplement way before they start showing problems it's a great preventative. My dog is 9 years old can run and jump I've had him on joint supplements since he was 2. It's also good to look for dog foods that have glucosamine and chondroitin in them. I've got my dog on a large breed grain-free food that has his daily dose already in it. Not all foods have large doses in them though so you need to read the label fish oil is also another good anti-inflammatory it helps with lubricating joints
I'm going to start my dog on supplements now. He's 5 almost 6 but showing some signs of stiffness sometimes. I'm also going to give him bamboo collage and hyaluronic acid, which I take for my knees.
thank you for the instructions. I do massage my dog and can see he loves it. He is 127lbs and only 5 and has a bit of arthritis. I am considering acupuncture. sometimes when he gets up he cries. He still can run and play and go for long walks but I hope to forestall the crippling effects of this condition.
I've been massaging my dogs like this because I figured I love massages, why wouldn't they? Especially when they got older, they always loved it. I didn't know about the accu-pressure point! Awesome! Thank you!! Subscribed!
No doubt that supplements will help manage Pearl's pain. My American Bulldog, Belle has taken Dasuquin with MSM for years for arthritis and it has really helped her. She has also taken Carprofen which is taken for pain management and inflammation. She was recently diagnosed with Cushing's Disease which meant she can longer take Carprofen (dog's with Cushing's can not take NSAIDs). Instead of Carprofen to manage her pain, her vet has put her on Gabapentin. She just started taking Gabapentin today so I'll have to watch her closely for the next several days to see if it is working for her. I would like to address one thing that Dr. Jones did not talk about in this video and that is Pearl's weight. Pearl is definitely overweight. Dropping a few pounds would be beneficial in helping to relieve her pain. My dog, Belle dropped about 10lbs after being diagnosed with arthritis and it made a huge difference in her ability to walk as well as moving from a down position to a standing position. Just dropping weight will not stop Pearl's pain, but it would certainly be another way to manage her discomfort.
Thank you doctar. Very effective treatment . I did the same massaging and acupressure treatment with my lab Kannan. I saw the effects of your treatment in Just 10 mins doctar .He is 8 years old.
I know it's late and it not might be relatedbut sometimes dogs "scratch" their joints with their mouths, sort of like little bites or sometimes licks, because of the pain.
Aw she likes that massage. Kenny likes my shiatsu massages, too. You can tell when they stretch their necks out, lay their ears back and half close their eyes. So cute.
I happened across this video... I've been subd for a little while... love your great information! Have a chihuahua named Pearl! She's had knee surgery in 2007ish. Noticed her walking differently now and I'll start with the acupressure and massage until I can buy her the products you have mentioned! Thanks again doc!
I can use all the help I can get. My Dane was diagnosed with arthritis...she was having issues with her hind end. Two years later and she gets around but not much. When I lightly grip her knee, she shows signs of major discomfort. If I keep pressure on this, she will sit down. She stands well in the morning for about 15 minutes then she goes to her slouch in the hindquarters / knees position. She can slouch pretty low without sitting too. I tried every supplement there is. I even gave her Adequan shots. I appreciate the massage techniques here. Thank you. I hope it helps.
Thank you for your videos. Our Golden has knee arthritis following TPLOs on both knees and displasyia in her right hip. One of the supplements that we give her is green-lipped mussel powder, also called green mussel powder. It was recommended by our vet but I note that you do not mention it. I would be interested in your thoughts.
My dog has been struggling to walk on and off started her on turmeric golden paste I make myself and started boswelia 270mg mixed with alfalfa and spirulina 120mg gave her 2tablets for two days then once a day it's only a few days and she's walking better already could only get the human supplements but all ingredients ok for her also giving her hawthorn berry tincature. And dandelion is that ok to give her with boswelia supplements thanks for all your videos you have gave me many great remadies for all my dogs you are so helpful with all your videos
Thanks again Dr. Jones. I just finished watching your video regarding Rimadyl since my dog is just finishing up on a 3 day dose. He had dental extractions and was prescribed Gabapentin for pain. They also gave him Rimadyl for arthritis in his front right knee. I also have a Yorkie who has patella and knee problems. Oddly enough I massage them both on a daily basis(first thing on the morning) but now I am going to do the acupressure you show here. Will look into comfrey patches too. Can you please give me the doses of the other natural solutions for a 10lb dog. Thank you soooo much🐶💖🐕🦺
Good afternoon. I just now purchased the Ultimate Canine. Can you please recommend a name brand Curcumin and Boswell to purchase as well? I am trying your products and advice for the first time and I want to make sure I purchase the right items for my 11 pounds chihuahua boy and girl who both were diagnosed with arthritis. Thank you for your free books and advice. I am so happy I bumped into one of your videos. It is so kind, thoughtful, wonderful, amazing that you provide such advice and I am looking forward to seeing a change of health on my fur babies.
Thanks Sharmain. Here is one I like: well.ca/products/organika-boswellia-curcumin_121611.html?gclid=CjwKCAjw4uXaBRAcEiwAuAUz8IqTO5jkiwfQIdR5m9kxIL_4Hi-nO5NWciiACLrbJYNdFAxpvX5c8hoCtFwQAvD_BwE
Stinging nettle is very good for arthritis. I collect them in the wild, dry them, then I put them in a mixer and mix with food. Very good supplement for arthritis, in humans and dogs.
Loved this. Dealing with arthritis on my dog's left leg at this time. Question: can the dog also ingest the comfrey besides just placing it on the leg?
Thank you for your video I like to try these ingredients on my pet I like to know where would I get all these ingredients for my pet and can you list them again for me please
For how long do we have to continue these. I have been giving my dog boswelia and curcumin for 4 months now. His knee is fully recovered, thanks to you. 😀 Is it okey if I continue giving him these?
Hi Doc, my 9 yr old weights 33lbs. she has a slightly high liver count, what can u suggest I do to help her? She put her on Deramaxx 1/2 everyday. Can that hurt her liver? Love your show THANK YOU JACKIE
I notice you don't mention acupuncture as a remedy for this although you may have done so in another video. We found this to be excellent for both our elderly dogs. They took on a new life. We have a problem now because there are no vets in our area who practice acupuncture as well and we would really love to do this with our 'new' elderly dogs. Will get on to the massage and acupressure though.
Hello Dr. Jones, YES exactly the same walking, limping"is my Chihuahua doing some days more and some days less. I was doing the same Massage today and brushing his fur. It helped a bit. Now I need a good Schmerzmittel for him, because he looses his teeth's by a little accident at home. He jumped out of the Bed he is 14.5 Years old!!!!!!! And fell on his cheek Kinn it is a Boxspringbed means higher than the other's and no carpet on the floor just the Parkettboden!!!!!! 😢 Autsch. Now we have a Date""with the Vet, hmmm because he have pain in /on his small mouth. 🙏🙏🙏🙏 What is your secret Tipp against pain????? Aspirin??? Greetings from Germany 🐾🐾
For those who aren't aware of this or who can't afford a vet, CUT YOUR DOG'S NAILS. It can change your dog's life. Nail clippers go for less than 40 dollars. If he doesn't want you to touch his paws, make sure he's lying down, pour a few drops of milk in his bowl and when he's distracted... Clamp down hard and cut. It's a long process but it works. He might slip a couple of times because the paws are still getting used to the feeling of complete control. He'll be getting up and sitting down a lot better and faster.
Sounds like a way to traumatize your dog. There are better ways to integrate nail clipping into your dog's life. Like, treats and clicker, and patience.
Why nail clipping? If the dog is comfortable without, do not do it. It often hurt the dog, because people dont know how to clip. I never clipped my dogs nail and they all fine.
THANK YOU SO MUCH ANDREW I'M PLANNING TO START THIS WITH MY FIVE-YEAR-OLD 6LB HALF CHINESE CRESTED CHIHUAHUA MIX BABY. SHE STILL WILL RUN AND PLAY JUST A LITTLE BIT BUT I NOTICED WHEN I RUB HER SHE'S HURTING SO I GET WARM COMPRESSES I'LL LOOK FOR ALL THE SUPPLEMENTS YOU SAID AT PETCO. I ALSO WILL DO THE MASSAGES THE WAY THAT YOU DEMONSTRATED. IF YOU CAN THINK OF ANYTHING ELSE FOR A LITTLE CHIHUAHUA PLEASE THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS ✝️🙏👼🐾💞
Could you please discuss Hyaluronic Acid? (I buy mine online. Hyalogic, LLC brand. I have used Hyalun90 - 6 mo supply for about $70) This liquid to put under the tongue is helping me and my dogs joint pain, in ADDITION to your Canine Formula, and cucurmin (with black pepper). I will try the Boswellia. My old girl has lots of pain in her front legs. A ramp into a vehicle or onto your bed, a low bed that is well padded, thick rugs or bedding to help them in their everyday routine can make a big difference. Keep on exercising to stay flexible, in moderation. 8-] Thanks so much Dr Jones for showing us how to love our pets to the utmost!! Naturally!!
I have a 3 to 4 year old lab slightly overweight he was chasing his ball about 2 weeks ago and slid on the wet grass and now yipes when getting up sometimes and has a hard time squatting to take a dump... will knox geletin help? thanks for the video
We have a Border Collie and I end up massaging her spine from head to toe when she's sitting down. but when she's relaxed she tends to lie down on her side and rolls onto her back as if she's tellin me to tickle her belly.
Dr. Andrew Jones suggests massage as a treatment for dogs with arthritis. He explains that dogs with arthritis, especially in the knees, may use their legs and muscles differently, leading to muscle spasms and painful, thick muscles. Massage can help relax these muscles and relieve pain. He demonstrates a basic massage technique starting from the lower back, going down to the base of the dog's tail, along the side of the hip, and down past the knee. He also suggests massaging the inside of the dog's thigh muscle down to the knee. Dr. Jones then shows how to get more specific with the massage, using the thumb and forefinger to make circular motions on the big back muscles along the spine, the big gluteal muscles, the hamstring muscles, and the big quad muscles. He notes that these muscles may be working much harder due to the arthritis in the dog's knee. Overall, Dr. Jones suggests that massage can be a helpful addition to other treatments for dogs with arthritis.
In addition to supplements, acupressure, and massage, Dr. Andrew Jones suggests trying comfrey, a plant that may help treat arthritis in dogs. He explains that comfrey can be ground up or pounded, cooked with a little bit of moisture to release its nutrients, and then applied to the affected area using a piece of cheesecloth or a sieve to hold it close to the skin. He recommends trying this treatment twice a day for a week to see if it's helpful. Dr. Jones also notes that every dog is different, and while certain remedies may work for the majority of dogs, it's important to try them out and see what works best for your dog. He encourages viewers to subscribe to his channel and click the link in the box below to receive free books and videos on how to heal their pets at home with his top natural remedies.
Comfrey can often be found at health food stores, herbal shops, or online retailers that specialize in natural remedies and herbal supplements. It may be sold in various forms, such as dried leaves, ointments, creams, or tinctures. When purchasing comfrey, it's important to ensure that it is sourced from a reputable supplier and that it is free from contaminants. It's also important to note that comfrey contains pyrrolizidine alkaloids, which can be toxic to the liver if ingested in large amounts or over a long period of time. Therefore, it's recommended to use comfrey topically and to avoid giving it to your dog internally without consulting with a veterinarian first. If you're unsure where to find comfrey or how to use it safely, it's always a good idea to consult with a veterinarian or a qualified herbalist who can provide guidance based on your dog's specific needs and health status.
To use comfrey topically on dogs, you can make a poultice or compress using the fresh or dried leaves of the plant. Here's a simple method to make a comfrey poultice: 1. Grind or chop fresh comfrey leaves into a paste, or use dried leaves and add enough water to make a paste. 2. Spread the paste onto a clean cloth or gauze, and then place the cloth onto the affected area of your dog's body. 3. Cover the cloth with plastic wrap or a plastic bag to help keep the poultice in place. 4. Wrap the area with a bandage or cloth to hold the poultice in place. 5. Leave the poultice on for several hours, or overnight if possible. 6. Remove the poultice and rinse the area with warm water. 7. Repeat the process once or twice daily as needed. It's important to note that comfrey should not be applied to open wounds or broken skin, as it can cause irritation and may slow down the healing process. Also, as mentioned earlier, comfrey contains pyrrolizidine alkaloids, which can be toxic to the liver if ingested in large amounts or over a long period of time. Therefore, it's recommended to use comfrey topically and to avoid giving it to your dog internally without consulting with a veterinarian first. If you're unsure about how to use comfrey safely or effectively, it's always a good idea to consult with a veterinarian or a qualified herbalist who can provide guidance based on your dog's specific needs and health status.
When applying a comfrey poultice or compress to a dog's fur, it's possible that some of the fur may get in the way or stick to the poultice. To minimize this, you can take the following steps: 1. Trim the fur around the affected area: Before applying the poultice, use scissors or clippers to carefully trim the fur around the affected area. This will help the poultice make better contact with the skin and reduce the amount of fur that gets in the way. 2. Use a thin layer of gauze or cheesecloth: Place a thin layer of gauze or cheesecloth between the poultice and your dog's fur. This will help keep the poultice in place and prevent the fur from sticking to it. 3. Apply a light coating of oil: Before applying the poultice, you can apply a light coating of oil, such as olive oil or coconut oil, to your dog's fur. This will help create a barrier between the fur and the poultice and make it easier to remove the poultice later. 4. Cover the poultice with plastic wrap: After applying the poultice, cover it with plastic wrap or a plastic bag to help keep it in place. This will also help prevent the fur from sticking to the poultice. 5. Monitor your dog: While the poultice is in place, monitor your dog to make sure they don't try to lick or scratch at it. If necessary, you can use an Elizabethan collar or other protective device to prevent your dog from disturbing the poultice. By taking these steps, you can help ensure that the comfrey poultice makes good contact with your dog's skin and that the fur doesn't get in the way. If you're unsure about how to apply a poultice safely or effectively, it's always a good idea to consult with a veterinarian or a qualified herbalist who can provide guidance based on your dog's specific needs and health status.
To answer what you should give to your dog for OA to insure a Quality of Life: Rehabilitation exercises to help regain muscle strength, modalities such as Laser (not red light LED), Extracorporeal Shockwave, ACUPUNCTURE, chiropractic, ultrasound, and joint mobilizations to start and continue on a weekly/ monthly and continuous basis. But start with a consult with your veterinarian, especially one who has completed certifications in "Natural" healing. Reducing pain through medications -whether pharmaceutical (more immediate and puts out the fire of inflammation) and natural (help to rebuild and modify the tissues to function better) - which starts with a visit to a trained veterinarian to guide you. Many OTC products do not put into the bottle what they claim or are too little, incorrect combinations, or indigestible, e.g. many CBD products, which are not at all regulated or third party verified.
How much of the meds do I give for my 3lb dog? This is my issue with meds. He's such a lil guy any amount I give I could be too much for him. It's rarely per pound. Any help would be appreciated. My lil guy is having difficulty going up and down the stairs. I've been trying to lift him every time, but can't always anticipate when he needs to do so.
Would back knee arthritis cause the back to curve a bit? My dog has problems putting weight on her left back leg.. she plops herself down on her rear and scoot her rear around to get up. Will take her in to the vet.
I have a 11 year old female Doberman. She is on a few pain medications as in Methocarbamol, Galliprant, and glucosamine. She’s 81 lb. She is extremely active still today. But she has now had 4 seizures since Nov 2021. What is a good supplement other than what you’ve shown ? I’m going to get what you have shown us other than glucosamine.
Lucy Guerra which CBD oils do you use for your pet? I asked my vet but they say there are no studies or research so they don’t recommend giving any. But I think they CBD would help my doggie. I just don’t know which one is safe. Thank you in advance for your help!
I just rescued a pup and it it plane to see he has been abused since he was little!!! He has many bones in his face that have healed wrong and his left shoulder and spine. What would you suggest to help him because l know he is in much pain. Food is top of the line with Omega three and a multivitamin.
I tried it all, all supplements, his diet is homemade Cbd and kratom saved my 14 year olds life. Hes arthritic, blind, anxiety, dissolved cataracts... he bled from eyes for weeks crying,,you know what those evil vets did? NSAIDS and said fishoil, HES BEEN ON THAT FOR TEN YEARS, Sadly research on kratom is limited besides one peer review paper, Small dose of lab grade kratom in 3 days, my 14 year old lab was able to go to bathroom without sling, Im sorry but vets need to be honest supplements are not enough for moderate to severe and its causing crimes against humanity level of cruelty
I went to 4 vets. one said it’s muscle strain. one said it’s the ankle. Xray confirms the ankle bone is enlarged. The vet says he needs a surgery called “Tarsal Arthroplasty” Two other vets say it’s CCL and that TPLO surgery is recommended. They also say Xray indicates effusion and swelling in the knee. now, I’m completely confused. I don’t want my dog to have a surgery that he didn’t need, while the real issue is not fixed. Can CT or MRI help?
I got an almost 15 year Bichon and he is at the point where he can put pressure on his back legs at all. I know he's getting old and his time is coming but I just want to help him in any way I can
Hi, On Amazon as one option..www.amazon.com/Turmeric-Curcumin-Curcuminoids-Supplement-Recommended/dp/B00WT4D57K/ref=pd_lpo_121_bs_img_2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=ZR5NV7N4X0EQRVHQG92Z
I actually froze the video zoomed in, copied the bottles into images and did a Google similar search to find the exact bottles. They are from AOR in Canada. So I bought them! Thanks!
My vet told not to use products that contain MSM cause this is for pain… in the long run will cause liver failure… just like us taking daily acetaminophen! Would be nice to know what the doc. has to say about this!
Sounds like nonsense to me. MSM is a known safe detoxifier that can be used daily to support natural liver detox pathways. MSM’s role in liver detox is understood to be due to its ability to enhance the production of glutathione.
What do you think about the Cosequin Max with MSM at Walmart for 21 dollars? Is it good? My 14 year old dog needs an extra boost and I'm looking into that and/or Turmeric solutions. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
@@VeterinarySecrets Thank you. Yeah, I am skeptical myself. She's already on T-Relief Mobility and Pain. Going to implement Turmeric into her diet as well and see if it helps.
hello Andrew , I heard that flexpet can maintain a sustainable life for dogs that have arthritis. would they work for my 11 year old Rough border collie ?
Point 1: Dr. Andrew Jones, a veterinarian, introduces Pearl, an older dog suffering from knee arthritis. Pearl's difficulty in moving, short walks, and reluctance to put weight on her back legs are signs of arthritis. Point 2: Dr. Jones suggests supplementing a dog's diet with glucosamine, chondroitin, and MSM. The recommended doses are 500 milligrams of glucosamine, 250 milligrams of chondroitin, and 500 milligrams of MSM for 50 pounds of body weight daily. These supplements are part of Dr. Jones' Multi Canine Health Formula. Point 3: Dr. Jones recommends two additional herbs, curcumin and boswellia, for dogs with advanced arthritis. Curcumin, isolated from turmeric, should be given at a therapeutic dose of about 100 milligrams for 10 pounds of body weight daily. Boswellia, also known as frankincense, should be given at a dose of about half the curcumin dose. Point 4: Dr. Jones suggests acupressure as a treatment for arthritis in dogs. He demonstrates two acupressure points, BL 60 and KI3, which can be stimulated to provide relief. He also suggests using the palm to send energy to the affected area. Point 5: Dr. Jones recommends massage for dogs with arthritis. Massage can help relax muscles, reduce spasms, and relieve pain. He suggests focusing on the lower back, hips, and thighs, and demonstrates circular motions on the back muscles. Point 6: Dr. Jones introduces comfrey, a plant that can be used to treat arthritis. He suggests grinding or pounding the plant, cooking it to release its nutrients, and applying the softened plant material to the affected area using a piece of cheesecloth. He recommends trying this treatment twice a day for a week to see if it's helpful.
Do dogs tend to "knuckle" when having athritis in the front legs? He acts like he's in pain and has trouble walking, but not every day he does this... Some days are worse than others. When I mentioned it to the vet, he moved my dog Poncho's neck and made him scream (I believe he scared him) but any how the vet said he has a spinal cord injury, however I don't believe that's what it is and it's been really bothering me. I bought some cosequin and noticed it has some of the same ingredients you mentioned.. maybe that could help him
GELITINE ...MIX INTO FOOD DAILY AT LEAST A PINT OF BEEF GELITINE ( the kind you make jelly with )it works like magic my dog has no med for arthritus now @know longer limps ....
@@abhisheksoni5582 just get any gelatine in supermarkets its in packets near jelly (jello) isle..... you just add to food I make it up with warm water and pour over food... It's worth a try. It will take a couple of weeks really to make a difference Goodluck ❤️🙏🏼❤️
@@abhisheksoni5582 gelatin is ground up cow hooves and slaughterhouse scraps. It is a low level collagen supplement. Bamboo collagen is much higher in silica, the building block of collagen. Vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, and bamboo collagen work wonders together.
Does curcumin cause any side effects? Like irritation to her stomach? My dog would benefit from this BUT my dog struggles with stomach issues so i have to be very careful with what i give her.
i don't like when they have artirits. I feel so bad. Andrew ? what massages can you show us for dogs that artirits hitted the back bone of there spine near the tails ?
Is it unusual for a dog to have something that resembles arthritis shown on the X-ray in all 4 ankles/hawks? My poor angel can barely walk but my vet said it’s a mystery as to why it’s only in the exact same spot in all 4 legs. Please I would love to hear your thoughts. Also just to add he’s a 7 year old gsd
9 year old rott/hound mix...Healthyfleshy feeling everywhere except end of the back on top(about 6-8 inches to tail), and the thighs are rather bony rather than fleshy too.....I've started him on flexerna and myelin sheath, which is supposed to help rebuild that, I guess.....But why isn't that area fleshy compared to everywhere else? He also sits on his side, due to the lack of fat it seems....Even if it's some arthritis, I wouldn't expect it to be really LOW on fat compared to the rest of his body.....Has anyone else dealt with this?
My dog Ginger 10yrs old border collie been diagnosed with hip dysplasia on her right hip, which confuses me because she is limping on her left front leg. She was 50lbs on Her last visit at to the vet which is overweight compared to the last time she was there at 45lbs. We lessened her diet. Yesterday she did not want to move or go outside when I called her, she stayed in the house the whole day and didnt want to eat. Same on the 2nd day. When she decides to get up and walk she seemed very unstable and stiff when she walks. I've been giving her glucosamine/chondroitin as well as CBD. It seems like her condition is getting worse. Any advice? Thanks
I keep watching videos on how to possibly cure my dog's arthritis and seizures. I've come to realize there's nothing much I can do, he's an old dog. He's a good dog. I am not ready to accept that he will pass soon, but it is a process. Thank you for this video anyways, it warms my heart that Pearl is receiving the help she needs.
Thanks - yes arthritis is chronic
Same my dog has arthritis in both knees and lower back we have done everything to help slow it but hes to the point were he cant do anything for himself anymore we literally move him because he can't anymore I'm so sad about it he's lived a happy 14 years but I think it's time to put him down 😞
I’m so sad. Just visited the vet today and found out my doggy has slight arthritis in his knees. I’m so so scared I don’t want to see him suffering in the future. I would do anything for him. He’s the only thing that makes me happy and I’m scared he won’t get proper attention when I go to college
CBD helps prevent seizures
@@samyray2k851 my Big boy (cane corso) has struggled with arthritis for the last few years - always worse when the weather changes (like mine) and after trying several different things, I finally found a regimen that works!
I started him on CBD oil each day, plus probiotics- a natural supplement that has a few different herbs in it- plus a heavy metal detox spray -
Within a week he no longer whimpered or cried - he suddenly became more like a puppy again, smiling all the time and playing so cute .. it’s incredible-
I started this new protocol because he couldn’t touch One of His paws to the ground and was limping -
No swelling/Infection etc.. and since my vet couldn’t get him in immediately, I started experimenting -
After Day 5 his paw is perfect again, in addition to being more playful and energetic! Yay!!
There is always something to learn and use from Dr Jones videos. Been watching years and never dissatisfied… thanks Dr Jones!!
I am your overseas fan from Thailand and I have just ended my dog's life from his arthritis. As I can't take any longer period to see him suffering when he had tried so hard to stand up on his own, as one of his front leg was too hurt for him to use in addition his two back legs had not enough strength to support himself while standing and walking. For the past almost six months his arthritis got worst even I tried everything to ease him by taking food supplements such as firstly Antinol twice a day including fish oil later just a month before euthanasia ( hope it is correct) changing to SC ll. in replacement of Antinol as recommended by my veterinarian. I did follow your video regarding massage for arthritis in dogs. I am now in grief of pet lost. It is really hurtful feeling because I have guilt for ending life of my beloved dog. Just hope it won't' take me long to get over this state of grief. Sorry if my English knowledge is not good.
Nong Kasem I’m sorry for your loss. I’ll be praying for you.
Have a wonderful day and may God bless you. Jesus loves you.
Nong Kasem dont feel bad You were just being kind Hope you have a new doggie by now
So much love packed in a short time period. They're such a treasure❤
I am so sorry but take solace in the fact that your puppy is playing in heaven
Any recommendations for arthritis symptoms since we just found out today that our dog has that problem
Thanks Doc, you helped me ease Kuba,my Black Lab, across the Bridge. And helped us make the decision that he couldn’t. How painful and empty his leaving left us. A new dog came to us late one January night, he had been left in a crate for over a week, in a Motel room by his self. A groomer that works for my daughter at VCA Portsmouth Virginia, ,was alerted to him,and rescued him from the Bad Situation. She brought him to us that night,and we will take care of him from now on. He is a Black Lab/Newfoundland Retriever. His lock up added to severe arthritis in his right front leg ( gives him a bad limp, x-rays showed the arthritis. He was 2 years old in January, and weighs in at 147 #. We have him on a dosage our Vet recommended , and I try to take him swimming at least once a week in the River,salt Water, since temperature is warming up some.. What else can I do, moist heat,dry heat, how about massage for his front leg. Do you have a videotape showing how to correctly use that method ?? Thanks for sharing your thoughts and treatments, with your fans. Truly,,Paul
when I brought my dog to the veterinary clinic , they said that they were gona operate on her leg and her elbow but I said no to the idea. Then they said that swimming is another option I can try with my dog. But these massages you are truly doing for purl really help my dog too causing I'm copying the techniques your doing. thank you Andrew for these video's.
Thank You!
Thank you for making this video. My black lab is a healthy weight but has bad knees. The veterinarian noticed a couple of years ago just by the way she was sitting, and with the cold wet weather and older age, she's starting to show signs of discomfort. She's grunting and deep sighing every time she lies down, she lays vs. sits, and she has a very hard time getting comfortable or staying comfortable. I'm going to try these massages for her. She doesn't limp and can still climb stairs and jump OK, but we've had her on Dasaquin MSM (recommended dose) for years now, thankfully. I've also put heating pads on her hip/knee areas while she rests. Thank you again!
Welcome- hope it helps
Thank you. This video is helpful. My dog is 15 years old, and sometimes he struggles walking.
what do you feed your dog wet food?? if so what brand?
You should have your dog on a glucosamine supplement way before they start showing problems it's a great preventative. My dog is 9 years old can run and jump I've had him on joint supplements since he was 2. It's also good to look for dog foods that have glucosamine and chondroitin in them. I've got my dog on a large breed grain-free food that has his daily dose already in it. Not all foods have large doses in them though so you need to read the label fish oil is also another good anti-inflammatory it helps with lubricating joints
I'm going to start my dog on supplements now. He's 5 almost 6 but showing some signs of stiffness sometimes. I'm also going to give him bamboo collage and hyaluronic acid, which I take for my knees.
very informative, thank you!
What a sweetheart Pearl!
It is a wonderful thing to be optimistic. I hope you have a blessed year!
thanks for the information dr jones. Always looking for ways to make life for my old dog good as possible
You are welcome
thank you for the instructions. I do massage my dog and can see he loves it. He is 127lbs and only 5 and has a bit of arthritis. I am considering acupuncture. sometimes when he gets up he cries. He still can run and play and go for long walks but I hope to forestall the crippling effects of this condition.
And I love your work and believe in the way in which you practice. 🙏so much integrity and compassion.
I've been massaging my dogs like this because I figured I love massages, why wouldn't they? Especially when they got older, they always loved it. I didn't know about the accu-pressure point! Awesome! Thank you!! Subscribed!
Who doesn't love massage! Welcome Joell, thank you for subscribing!
No doubt that supplements will help manage Pearl's pain. My American Bulldog, Belle has taken Dasuquin with MSM for years for arthritis and it has really helped her. She has also taken Carprofen which is taken for pain management and inflammation. She was recently diagnosed with Cushing's Disease which meant she can longer take Carprofen (dog's with Cushing's can not take NSAIDs). Instead of Carprofen to manage her pain, her vet has put her on Gabapentin. She just started taking Gabapentin today so I'll have to watch her closely for the next several days to see if it is working for her. I would like to address one thing that Dr. Jones did not talk about in this video and that is Pearl's weight. Pearl is definitely overweight. Dropping a few pounds would be beneficial in helping to relieve her pain. My dog, Belle dropped about 10lbs after being diagnosed with arthritis and it made a huge difference in her ability to walk as well as moving from a down position to a standing position. Just dropping weight will not stop Pearl's pain, but it would certainly be another way to manage her discomfort.
Thanks Terry
Thank you doctar. Very effective treatment . I did the same massaging and acupressure treatment with my lab Kannan. I saw the effects of your treatment in Just 10 mins doctar .He is 8 years old.
I love to watch your videos as you talk about anything you also demonstrate thank you so much 👍
Hi and Thank You>
My poor baby was crying all night for pain but what puzzles me is her itching at the same time... ty for this video your a God sent truly. 🙏 💕
I know it's late and it not might be relatedbut sometimes dogs "scratch" their joints with their mouths, sort of like little bites or sometimes licks, because of the pain.
thanks u so much for makeing this video i really needed to see this
Youa re welcome
My dog got swelling in first leg now how to cure it he can't even walk
Excellent !!!!.....very well explained thank you 🙏
More great advice Dr.Jones. Ty, so much
You're very welcome! There's more to come!🥰
Aw she likes that massage. Kenny likes my shiatsu massages, too. You can tell when they stretch their necks out, lay their ears back and half close their eyes. So cute.
I happened across this video... I've been subd for a little while... love your great information! Have a chihuahua named Pearl! She's had knee surgery in 2007ish. Noticed her walking differently now and I'll start with the acupressure and massage until I can buy her the products you have mentioned! Thanks again doc!
Welcome
I can use all the help I can get. My Dane was diagnosed with arthritis...she was having issues with her hind end. Two years later and she gets around but not much. When I lightly grip her knee, she shows signs of major discomfort. If I keep pressure on this, she will sit down. She stands well in the morning for about 15 minutes then she goes to her slouch in the hindquarters / knees position. She can slouch pretty low without sitting too. I tried every supplement there is. I even gave her Adequan shots. I appreciate the massage techniques here. Thank you. I hope it helps.
I hope this works well for you too:)
Thank you for your videos. Our Golden has knee arthritis following TPLOs on both knees and displasyia in her right hip. One of the supplements that we give her is green-lipped mussel powder, also called green mussel powder. It was recommended by our vet but I note that you do not mention it. I would be interested in your thoughts.
Jan Pulfrey what results have you seen?
@Monica Pattera how long into taking it did you notice a difference?
Thank you for this video! I’m doing this to my older dog and he likes the massage.
You're welcome.
This is a true good person.
My dog has been struggling to walk on and off started her on turmeric golden paste I make myself and started boswelia 270mg mixed with alfalfa and spirulina 120mg gave her 2tablets for two days then once a day it's only a few days and she's walking better already could only get the human supplements but all ingredients ok for her also giving her hawthorn berry tincature. And dandelion is that ok to give her with boswelia supplements thanks for all your videos you have gave me many great remadies for all my dogs you are so helpful with all your videos
Thanks again Dr. Jones. I just finished watching your video regarding Rimadyl since my dog is just finishing up on a 3 day dose. He had dental extractions and was prescribed Gabapentin for pain. They also gave him Rimadyl for arthritis in his front right knee. I also have a Yorkie who has patella and knee problems. Oddly enough I massage them both on a daily basis(first thing on the morning) but now I am going to do the acupressure you show here. Will look into comfrey patches too.
Can you please give me the doses of the other natural solutions for a 10lb dog. Thank you soooo much🐶💖🐕🦺
Thanks for that. I love your work.
i really appreciate the help you provide with these vids doc!! thank you very much...
You are welcome
Good afternoon. I just now purchased the Ultimate Canine. Can you please recommend a name brand Curcumin and Boswell to purchase as well? I am trying your products and advice for the first time and I want to make sure I purchase the right items for my 11 pounds chihuahua boy and girl who both were diagnosed with arthritis. Thank you for your free books and advice. I am so happy I bumped into one of your videos. It is so kind, thoughtful, wonderful, amazing that you provide such advice and I am looking forward to seeing a change of health on my fur babies.
Thanks Sharmain. Here is one I like: well.ca/products/organika-boswellia-curcumin_121611.html?gclid=CjwKCAjw4uXaBRAcEiwAuAUz8IqTO5jkiwfQIdR5m9kxIL_4Hi-nO5NWciiACLrbJYNdFAxpvX5c8hoCtFwQAvD_BwE
Thank you for your response. What are your recommendation dosage for an 11 pound chihuahua?
@@VeterinarySecrets hi doctor is this still the one you recommend?
Stinging nettle is very good for arthritis. I collect them in the wild, dry them, then I put them in a mixer and mix with food. Very good supplement for arthritis, in humans and dogs.
Thanks fir sharing!
Thank you
This doctor is wonderful
what can I do for you? Aryana.
Thanks
Great advice my dog is limping this is helpful 💙💙👍.
Loved this. Dealing with arthritis on my dog's left leg at this time. Question: can the dog also ingest the comfrey besides just placing it on the leg?
Thanks a lot. 🙏
Most welcome!
Thank you for your video I like to try these ingredients on my pet I like to know where would I get all these ingredients for my pet and can you list them again for me please
Pearl is so cute
She sure was!
For how long do we have to continue these. I have been giving my dog boswelia and curcumin for 4 months now. His knee is fully recovered, thanks to you. 😀 Is it okey if I continue giving him these?
I’m so glad it’s been helping your dog. Thanks for letting me know. Yes, you can have curcumin for longterm use.
@@VeterinarySecrets What about Boswelia?
Hi Doc, my 9 yr old weights 33lbs. she has a slightly high liver count, what can u suggest I do to help her? She put her on Deramaxx 1/2 everyday. Can that hurt her liver? Love your show THANK YOU JACKIE
I notice you don't mention acupuncture as a remedy for this although you may have done so in another video. We found this to be excellent for both our elderly dogs. They took on a new life. We have a problem now because there are no vets in our area who practice acupuncture as well and we would really love to do this with our 'new' elderly dogs. Will get on to the massage and acupressure though.
Hello Dr. Jones, YES exactly the same walking, limping"is my Chihuahua doing some days more and some days less. I was doing the same Massage today and brushing his fur. It helped a bit. Now I need a good Schmerzmittel for him, because he looses his teeth's by a little accident at home. He jumped out of the Bed he is 14.5 Years old!!!!!!! And fell on his cheek Kinn it is a Boxspringbed means higher than the other's and no carpet on the floor just the Parkettboden!!!!!! 😢 Autsch. Now we have a Date""with the Vet, hmmm because he have pain in /on his small mouth. 🙏🙏🙏🙏 What is your secret Tipp against pain????? Aspirin??? Greetings from Germany 🐾🐾
Thank you very helpful
Happy to help!
For those who aren't aware of this or who can't afford a vet, CUT YOUR DOG'S NAILS. It can change your dog's life. Nail clippers go for less than 40 dollars. If he doesn't want you to touch his paws, make sure he's lying down, pour a few drops of milk in his bowl and when he's distracted... Clamp down hard and cut. It's a long process but it works. He might slip a couple of times because the paws are still getting used to the feeling of complete control. He'll be getting up and sitting down a lot better and faster.
Good point
Sounds like a way to traumatize your dog. There are better ways to integrate nail clipping into your dog's life. Like, treats and clicker, and patience.
Why nail clipping? If the dog is comfortable without, do not do it. It often hurt the dog, because people dont know how to clip. I never clipped my dogs nail and they all fine.
THANK YOU SO MUCH ANDREW
I'M PLANNING TO START THIS WITH MY FIVE-YEAR-OLD 6LB HALF CHINESE CRESTED CHIHUAHUA MIX BABY. SHE STILL WILL RUN AND PLAY JUST A LITTLE BIT BUT I NOTICED WHEN I RUB HER SHE'S HURTING SO I GET WARM COMPRESSES I'LL LOOK FOR ALL THE SUPPLEMENTS YOU SAID AT PETCO. I ALSO WILL DO THE MASSAGES THE WAY THAT YOU DEMONSTRATED. IF YOU CAN THINK OF ANYTHING ELSE FOR A LITTLE CHIHUAHUA PLEASE THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS ✝️🙏👼🐾💞
Welcome
Could you please discuss Hyaluronic Acid? (I buy mine online. Hyalogic, LLC brand. I have used Hyalun90 - 6 mo supply for about $70) This liquid to put under the tongue is helping me and my dogs joint pain, in ADDITION to your Canine Formula, and cucurmin (with black pepper). I will try the Boswellia. My old girl has lots of pain in her front legs. A ramp into a vehicle or onto your bed, a low bed that is well padded, thick rugs or bedding to help them in their everyday routine can make a big difference. Keep on exercising to stay flexible, in moderation. 8-] Thanks so much Dr Jones for showing us how to love our pets to the utmost!! Naturally!!
Hi and Thanks for the suggestions
I have a 3 to 4 year old lab slightly overweight he was chasing his ball about 2 weeks ago and slid on the wet grass and now yipes when getting up sometimes and has a hard time squatting to take a dump... will knox geletin help? thanks for the video
Great sir..thnx for the information
Welcome
Such a sweetie
Absolutely:)
CBD oil has been a life saver for my dog.
Where can I find this Cbd oil
Same and lab grade kratom
For my dog eventually CBD wasnt enough(it took a few years though)
We have a Border Collie and I end up massaging her spine from head to toe when she's sitting down. but when she's relaxed she tends to lie down on her side and rolls onto her back as if she's tellin me to tickle her belly.
I know this is an older video, but still helpful. Any thoughts on human grade selenium and vitamin E tablets?
Good for skin infection, immune support
Thanks Andrew!
Dr. Andrew Jones suggests massage as a treatment for dogs with arthritis. He explains that dogs with arthritis, especially in the knees, may use their legs and muscles differently, leading to muscle spasms and painful, thick muscles. Massage can help relax these muscles and relieve pain.
He demonstrates a basic massage technique starting from the lower back, going down to the base of the dog's tail, along the side of the hip, and down past the knee. He also suggests massaging the inside of the dog's thigh muscle down to the knee.
Dr. Jones then shows how to get more specific with the massage, using the thumb and forefinger to make circular motions on the big back muscles along the spine, the big gluteal muscles, the hamstring muscles, and the big quad muscles. He notes that these muscles may be working much harder due to the arthritis in the dog's knee.
Overall, Dr. Jones suggests that massage can be a helpful addition to other treatments for dogs with arthritis.
In addition to supplements, acupressure, and massage, Dr. Andrew Jones suggests trying comfrey, a plant that may help treat arthritis in dogs. He explains that comfrey can be ground up or pounded, cooked with a little bit of moisture to release its nutrients, and then applied to the affected area using a piece of cheesecloth or a sieve to hold it close to the skin. He recommends trying this treatment twice a day for a week to see if it's helpful.
Dr. Jones also notes that every dog is different, and while certain remedies may work for the majority of dogs, it's important to try them out and see what works best for your dog. He encourages viewers to subscribe to his channel and click the link in the box below to receive free books and videos on how to heal their pets at home with his top natural remedies.
Comfrey can often be found at health food stores, herbal shops, or online retailers that specialize in natural remedies and herbal supplements. It may be sold in various forms, such as dried leaves, ointments, creams, or tinctures.
When purchasing comfrey, it's important to ensure that it is sourced from a reputable supplier and that it is free from contaminants. It's also important to note that comfrey contains pyrrolizidine alkaloids, which can be toxic to the liver if ingested in large amounts or over a long period of time. Therefore, it's recommended to use comfrey topically and to avoid giving it to your dog internally without consulting with a veterinarian first.
If you're unsure where to find comfrey or how to use it safely, it's always a good idea to consult with a veterinarian or a qualified herbalist who can provide guidance based on your dog's specific needs and health status.
To use comfrey topically on dogs, you can make a poultice or compress using the fresh or dried leaves of the plant. Here's a simple method to make a comfrey poultice:
1. Grind or chop fresh comfrey leaves into a paste, or use dried leaves and add enough water to make a paste.
2. Spread the paste onto a clean cloth or gauze, and then place the cloth onto the affected area of your dog's body.
3. Cover the cloth with plastic wrap or a plastic bag to help keep the poultice in place.
4. Wrap the area with a bandage or cloth to hold the poultice in place.
5. Leave the poultice on for several hours, or overnight if possible.
6. Remove the poultice and rinse the area with warm water.
7. Repeat the process once or twice daily as needed.
It's important to note that comfrey should not be applied to open wounds or broken skin, as it can cause irritation and may slow down the healing process. Also, as mentioned earlier, comfrey contains pyrrolizidine alkaloids, which can be toxic to the liver if ingested in large amounts or over a long period of time. Therefore, it's recommended to use comfrey topically and to avoid giving it to your dog internally without consulting with a veterinarian first.
If you're unsure about how to use comfrey safely or effectively, it's always a good idea to consult with a veterinarian or a qualified herbalist who can provide guidance based on your dog's specific needs and health status.
When applying a comfrey poultice or compress to a dog's fur, it's possible that some of the fur may get in the way or stick to the poultice. To minimize this, you can take the following steps:
1. Trim the fur around the affected area: Before applying the poultice, use scissors or clippers to carefully trim the fur around the affected area. This will help the poultice make better contact with the skin and reduce the amount of fur that gets in the way.
2. Use a thin layer of gauze or cheesecloth: Place a thin layer of gauze or cheesecloth between the poultice and your dog's fur. This will help keep the poultice in place and prevent the fur from sticking to it.
3. Apply a light coating of oil: Before applying the poultice, you can apply a light coating of oil, such as olive oil or coconut oil, to your dog's fur. This will help create a barrier between the fur and the poultice and make it easier to remove the poultice later.
4. Cover the poultice with plastic wrap: After applying the poultice, cover it with plastic wrap or a plastic bag to help keep it in place. This will also help prevent the fur from sticking to the poultice.
5. Monitor your dog: While the poultice is in place, monitor your dog to make sure they don't try to lick or scratch at it. If necessary, you can use an Elizabethan collar or other protective device to prevent your dog from disturbing the poultice.
By taking these steps, you can help ensure that the comfrey poultice makes good contact with your dog's skin and that the fur doesn't get in the way. If you're unsure about how to apply a poultice safely or effectively, it's always a good idea to consult with a veterinarian or a qualified herbalist who can provide guidance based on your dog's specific needs and health status.
To answer what you should give to your dog for OA to insure a Quality of Life: Rehabilitation exercises to help regain muscle strength, modalities such as Laser (not red light LED), Extracorporeal Shockwave, ACUPUNCTURE, chiropractic, ultrasound, and joint mobilizations to start and continue on a weekly/ monthly and continuous basis. But start with a consult with your veterinarian, especially one who has completed certifications in "Natural" healing. Reducing pain through medications -whether pharmaceutical (more immediate and puts out the fire of inflammation) and natural (help to rebuild and modify the tissues to function better) - which starts with a visit to a trained veterinarian to guide you. Many OTC products do not put into the bottle what they claim or are too little, incorrect combinations, or indigestible, e.g. many CBD products, which are not at all regulated or third party verified.
How much of the meds do I give for my 3lb dog?
This is my issue with meds. He's such a lil guy any amount I give I could be too much for him. It's rarely per pound.
Any help would be appreciated. My lil guy is having difficulty going up and down the stairs. I've been trying to lift him every time, but can't always anticipate when he needs to do so.
Hi Doctor can you make a video about arthritis in dogs shoulder in advance, thanks so much
Yes, in the next few months.
Would back knee arthritis cause the back to curve a bit? My dog has problems putting weight on her left back leg.. she plops herself down on her rear and scoot her rear around to get up. Will take her in to the vet.
I have a 11 year old female Doberman. She is on a few pain medications as in Methocarbamol, Galliprant, and glucosamine. She’s 81 lb. She is extremely active still today. But she has now had 4 seizures since Nov 2021. What is a good supplement other than what you’ve shown ? I’m going to get what you have shown us other than glucosamine.
Could I add the curcumin and Boswella in addition to the Antinol and CBD oils that my dog is on?
Lucy Guerra which CBD oils do you use for your pet? I asked my vet but they say there are no studies or research so they don’t recommend giving any. But I think they CBD would help my doggie. I just don’t know which one is safe. Thank you in advance for your help!

I went to 4 vets. one said it’s muscle strain.
one said it’s the ankle. Xray confirms the ankle bone is enlarged. The vet says he needs a surgery called “Tarsal Arthroplasty”
Two other vets say it’s CCL and that TPLO surgery is recommended. They also say Xray indicates effusion and swelling in the knee.
now, I’m completely confused. I don’t want my dog to have a surgery that he didn’t need, while the real issue is not fixed.

Hello Dr Jones, what do you think of 4Cyte in dogs with athiritis. Is there any side affects. Thank you from Australia
For the supplements, do you use human grade? Like, could I buy my dogs curcumin from the vitamin store?
Yes, most definitely.
Where can I buy the bottles of Curcumin and Boswellia you are holding? Thanks
Hi, On Amazon as one option..www.amazon.com/Turmeric-Curcumin-Curcuminoids-Supplement-Recommended/dp/B00WT4D57K/ref=pd_lpo_121_bs_img_2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=ZR5NV7N4X0EQRVHQG92Z
I actually froze the video zoomed in, copied the bottles into images and did a Google similar search to find the exact bottles. They are from AOR in Canada. So I bought them! Thanks!
William McSpirit Hi, what’s the brand name for the curcumin?
Veterinary Secrets is the black pepper in curcumin supplements needed in order for dogs to absorb the curcumin? Do you have a brand you recommend?
My vet told not to use products that contain MSM cause this is for pain… in the long run will cause liver failure… just like us taking daily acetaminophen! Would be nice to know what the doc. has to say about this!
Sounds like nonsense to me. MSM is a known safe detoxifier that can be used daily to support natural liver detox pathways. MSM’s role in liver detox is understood to be due to its ability to enhance the production of glutathione.
What do you think about the Cosequin Max with MSM at Walmart for 21 dollars? Is it good? My 14 year old dog needs an extra boost and I'm looking into that and/or Turmeric solutions. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Good options, I would just worry about what other additives are in there for that price
@@VeterinarySecrets Thank you. Yeah, I am skeptical myself. She's already on T-Relief Mobility and Pain. Going to implement Turmeric into her diet as well and see if it helps.

hello Andrew , I heard that flexpet can maintain a sustainable life for dogs that have arthritis. would they work for my 11 year old Rough border collie ?
I have had some dog owners say it helps
Do you have a supplement Dr. Jones that you make? I’ve looked on your website, I didn’t find one?
My 4 month old Rottweiler puppy has leg bending problem ,please help me to cure the leg
Pearl looks just like my Cooper!
Point 1: Dr. Andrew Jones, a veterinarian, introduces Pearl, an older dog suffering from knee arthritis. Pearl's difficulty in moving, short walks, and reluctance to put weight on her back legs are signs of arthritis.
Point 2: Dr. Jones suggests supplementing a dog's diet with glucosamine, chondroitin, and MSM. The recommended doses are 500 milligrams of glucosamine, 250 milligrams of chondroitin, and 500 milligrams of MSM for 50 pounds of body weight daily. These supplements are part of Dr. Jones' Multi Canine Health Formula.
Point 3: Dr. Jones recommends two additional herbs, curcumin and boswellia, for dogs with advanced arthritis. Curcumin, isolated from turmeric, should be given at a therapeutic dose of about 100 milligrams for 10 pounds of body weight daily. Boswellia, also known as frankincense, should be given at a dose of about half the curcumin dose.
Point 4: Dr. Jones suggests acupressure as a treatment for arthritis in dogs. He demonstrates two acupressure points, BL 60 and KI3, which can be stimulated to provide relief. He also suggests using the palm to send energy to the affected area.
Point 5: Dr. Jones recommends massage for dogs with arthritis. Massage can help relax muscles, reduce spasms, and relieve pain. He suggests focusing on the lower back, hips, and thighs, and demonstrates circular motions on the back muscles.
Point 6: Dr. Jones introduces comfrey, a plant that can be used to treat arthritis. He suggests grinding or pounding the plant, cooking it to release its nutrients, and applying the softened plant material to the affected area using a piece of cheesecloth. He recommends trying this treatment twice a day for a week to see if it's helpful.
My Cockapoo is 13. She’s developed muscle atrophy (loss) in addition to luxating patella and arthritis.

Do dogs tend to "knuckle" when having athritis in the front legs? He acts like he's in pain and has trouble walking, but not every day he does this... Some days are worse than others. When I mentioned it to the vet, he moved my dog Poncho's neck and made him scream (I believe he scared him) but any how the vet said he has a spinal cord injury, however I don't believe that's what it is and it's been really bothering me. I bought some cosequin and noticed it has some of the same ingredients you mentioned.. maybe that could help him
GELITINE ...MIX INTO FOOD DAILY AT LEAST A PINT OF BEEF GELITINE ( the kind you make jelly with )it works like magic my dog has no med for arthritus now @know longer limps ....

@@abhisheksoni5582 I can't do that sorry just ask in the supermarket they will help you. 🛒🙏🏼❤️
@@abhisheksoni5582 gelatin is ground up cow hooves and slaughterhouse scraps. It is a low level collagen supplement. Bamboo collagen is much higher in silica, the building block of collagen. Vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, and bamboo collagen work wonders together.
ouch ! poor purl. I heard that bone crunch.
Yes it is advanced
Does curcumin cause any side effects? Like irritation to her stomach? My dog would benefit from this BUT my dog struggles with stomach issues so i have to be very careful with what i give her.
My lab is ten this year and he's got this problem 😟
what about arnica oil? will that help our dogs?
I read 10mg Boswellia per lb of body weight? I've been giving 1200 mg
nice
I wish I can put a video on This to show you my dog. lol
i don't like when they have artirits. I feel so bad. Andrew ? what massages can you show us for dogs that artirits hitted the back bone of there spine near the tails ?
My dog got these daily, and never had arthritic issues.
Is it unusual for a dog to have something that resembles arthritis shown on the X-ray in all 4 ankles/hawks? My poor angel can barely walk but my vet said it’s a mystery as to why it’s only in the exact same spot in all 4 legs. Please I would love to hear your thoughts. Also just to add he’s a 7 year old gsd
9 year old rott/hound mix...Healthyfleshy feeling everywhere except end of the back on top(about 6-8 inches to tail), and the thighs are rather bony rather than fleshy too.....I've started him on flexerna and myelin sheath, which is supposed to help rebuild that, I guess.....But why isn't that area fleshy compared to everywhere else? He also sits on his side, due to the lack of fat it seems....Even if it's some arthritis, I wouldn't expect it to be really LOW on fat compared to the rest of his body.....Has anyone else dealt with this?
My dog Ginger 10yrs old border collie been diagnosed with hip dysplasia on her right hip, which confuses me because she is limping on her left front leg. She was 50lbs on Her last visit at to the vet which is overweight compared to the last time she was there at 45lbs. We lessened her diet. Yesterday she did not want to move or go outside when I called her, she stayed in the house the whole day and didnt want to eat. Same on the 2nd day. When she decides to get up and walk she seemed very unstable and stiff when she walks. I've been giving her glucosamine/chondroitin as well as CBD. It seems like her condition is getting worse. Any advice? Thanks
