A Must for the Arthritic Dog Owner

This is a great book for the arthritic dog owner. It is very thorough and investigates ALL of the solutions for dogs with arthritis and other diseases, such as Canine Hip Dysplasia. It talks about maintaining the dog's quality of health by holostic means, rather than the ever popular NSAIDS such as Rimadyl/Estogesic, which have been known to have a lot of side effects. But it also investigates the NSAIDS. The book is not one-sided, but gives open information about all possible routes that can be taken to maintain a dog with arthritis. I have read a lot of books about this topic, but this is one of my top picks. It delivers a lot of information in a clear manner, then lets the reader decide for her/his self what are the best solutions for their individual dog. I enjoyed this book most because of its thoroughness. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is facing anytype of joint complications with their dog.
