Hi Big Dog Mom
Interesting questions. Yes I believe she is "knuckling". What does this mean? Sometimes when I walk her, it seems like her knee or ankle just suddenly gives out and she stumbles. I took her for acupuncture last week and the vet said her trembling legs were "simply as a result of the pain of her arthritis." "Simply"??? I can't stand to see her suffering. :sad: She did respond well to the acupuncture and is back to being her usual old limpy self. She is on the maximum dosage she can receive for Metacam. We tried to switch her to Deramaxx a few months ago but her stomach could not tolerate it and she was sick as a... well, a dog. All I can think of to do for her is to take her in for acupuncture when she has bad days. I do TTouch on her as well. Thanks for any insights.
