Is There a Cure for Dog Osteo-Arthritis Joint Disease?

Almost all dog owners will experience the problem
of having a senior canine develop osteoarthritis.
This is a very debilitating disease which affects
and attacks the joint tissue of the animal. Dog
arthritis is actually the process of
degeneration and fanning of cartilage tissue
inside the joints. This degradation of the
tissue allows the ball and joint bone tissue to
actually rub together and this in turn causes
pain due to the fact there are numerous nerve
endings within living bone tissue.

Dog arthritis has no cure at the present time.
There are many drugs and supplementation
products available to treat this regenerating
disease which affects countless millions of
canines around the world. Many veterinarians
have in the past prescribed medications that
help to cover up and eliminate the painful
symptoms of canine arthritis. Although these
prescription medicines work very well in
eliminating the pain, they also can have many
unwanted and dangerous side effects associated
with their use. In fact, many canines have been
reported to have died from taking some of these
prescribed drugs.

More and more so, veterinarians today are
suggesting to dog owners that a regiment of
glucosamine supplementation should be the first
line of attack when the disease is diagnosed in
a dog. Although the dog arthritis cannot be
cured, the glucosamine supplementation products
offer the animals the building blocks required
to regenerate the damaged joint tissue within
the joints.

Since the glucosamine does not act in any way to
hide or cover up the pain, it does take several
weeks to perhaps several months of time before
any benefits are observed in the disease animal.
This can often lead to frustration by the pet
owner who would like to see immediate results of
the supplement. Keep in mind, that although it
does take more time for benefits to be seen when
using glucosamine, the benefits are brought about
by offering the body a means of actually
rebuilding the damaged tissues. Once again, this
is unlike the quick fix solution that prescribed
medicines offer for dealing with the pain of dog
arthritis.

Glucosamine can be purchased at many locations
such as big-box retail stores, pet stores,
veterinarians, and also retail websites. It
usually comes in two versions which are either
liquid or in pill and tablet form. Many pet
owners prefer the liquid version of glucosamine
because it is far easier to provide the daily
dosage is to the animal which are simply poured
over the feed at meal time. The liquid version
of glucosamine also offers the maximum dosage
possible for treating dog arthritis. Unlike the
need to give multiple pills of glucosamine each
day, the liquid version allows dog owners to
only provide the supplement once per day to
treat the dog arthritis disease in their
animals.
