| Hi there, I've been avidly reading about your poor doggy and would love to know how you get on with the vet in Germany.
Our 13 yr. old retriever is a walking pill bottle (but still thinks he's a 2 yr. old) and on top of all the other issues he's starting with arthritis now as well. He's done well over the last 2 yrs with Teufelskralle pills for assorted joint complaints but this summer we've noticed he's become a bit slower.
Would like to be able to know I can head off to Germany for a treatment not available here. Good luck!  | |

Going to Germany is the easy bit for use as we KNOW the drug works for him. Cartrophen has controversial research in terms of its success rates. Some vets say pain relief is just as good and then food suppliments. However, we tried the pain relief and he got used to it so you end up increasing the dose. Plus cartrophen injections have shown in some dogs to slow down the degeneration of the bones and help with pain relief.
I would highly recommend cartrophen and hope it works for every dog the way it does for our Lui. Lui also thinks he is 2 years old. Plus he is a well travelled companions. He's come from Australia to UK, then Switzerland and soon to be Germany
Amazing what we do for our 4 legged companions.
and that is too long to wait. So we have an appointment first thing tomorrow with the doctor we used to go to before we moved (and still go to sometimes though the traffic is a nightmare). I actually prefer their office to one reason, it has no stairs. The vet we have been going to has stairs to the front door. The dog can't manage the stairs and neither can I.
