So sorry @Moon poor doggy.
Dad and I buy a liquid supplement from Walmart to help Ollie with his back legs arthritis. It does help. If you want I can share the name.
Let us know how you and your best friend are doing.

Oh no! For arthritis, I give my dog OTC glucosamine chewable tablets. He gets half a tablet for his size. They’ve actually really helped him. He’s even jumping again and running around. He’s 13 years old and acts like a puppy

Yes plus shes 8 and a half
They couldnt say definitely because i choose not to do the xrays since it wouldnt change anything. But could be as bad as a ruptured disk but i doubt its that severe

Pupdate: she seems to be in less pain because shes been resting a lot. The pain meds made her be able to rest i think plus it seems to hurt her quite a lot to move. Im not moving her until the morning when i give her her pain meds and try to take her out again.
Pupdate: shes doing a bit better, acting more normal, but definitely still in pain.
