Joint pain?

[Kimberly Charlesworth Wielgus]

Our Boerboel is almost 2 and starting to limp. He doesn't cry or whimper and runs and wrestles with our other dog, regardless of the limp. I'm thinking that this may be the beginning of a joint problem. He's 175 lbs. any suggestions, thoughts? How about glucosamine supplements to help prevent joint problems? Thx

I think you should have him checked out by a vet. That doesn't sound too good and he's 175# to boot? That's huge! And puts a lot of stress on his joints. I gave my arthritic pit bull glucosamine/condroitin supplements and vitamin C (buffered). It helped her immensely but you need a diagnosis to be sure he won't do more damage.

Good luck!
