Helpful Guide

This guide has been extremely helpful in understanding and dealing with the arthritis in our 14 year old dog. It is the only thing I found that specified the recommended dosages of supplements. Unfortunately my library did not carry it so I bought it, but it is also handy to keep as a reference.

Best Owner Reference For Dog Orthopedic Issues

The bottom line is that dog owners most often approach this subject matter when there are hard decisions to be made. This book adds a lot of clarity to that process. Our Vet loaned us his copy to read over the weekend. We were so impressed we ordered our own. Although it is slightly dated, this book is by far the most clear and comprehensive reference on the subject we've ever seen. The writing is clear and understandable by the layman. The many illustrations are very well done.
