ThorntonRunner May 2018 8:04pm, 21 May 2018 1,710 posts	Quote Pin ThorntonRunner Poor Cookie - is that yumove or something else? It makes me sad that our 8 year old springer is limited to 3 15 minute on lead walks a day due to arthritis. He seems happy enough but just feel he should be running around like a mad thing for hours on end!

We use Yumove for Wanda as she often has a bit of stiffness - the vets aren't overly concerned at the moment but have warned that arthritis could develop at a younger age than we might reasonably expect.
Dave A May 2018 9:16am, 23 May 2018 21,988 posts	Quote Pin Dave A We started Cookie on the Nutraquin plus last night. Amongst other things it contains anti inflammatory. There was an improvement in how he moved and how he looked when moving within a couple of hours. Over the last 4-6 weeks his behaviour around walksxand exercise had changed drastically, but looking back he’s probably been getting the early signs for a couple of years now, we just hadn’t picked up on them. I’d put this down to him calming down a bit, but then he’s a terrier so maybe I was being deluded. After one dose we’ve seen a difference and the manufacturer states noticeable differences in 4-7 days. So when I’m on here next week, complaining of a hyper active puppy, we’ll know why.
