Q: hi.
i have had my dog for many years and he's been slowing down and has had a hard time standing up.
my question is..... does anyone know any types of food should i try giving him to get his bines stronger and speed him up a little?
thanks alot!!!!!!!
There are many foods for older dogs that are supposed to help these problems! ^-^ Arthritis is a big factor in older dogs. Your dog may just have some arthritis bothering him (or a weight problem, or both. but you didnt specify about a weight problem) I had a 15-year-old dog named Belle who had terrible arthritis from the time she was 8 till she died about 1 and a half years ago. She was on medication prescribed from the Vets office & we fed her some dog food the vet reccomended. So i guess that the main point of this entire paragraph is to suggest seeing a vet! n_n
