Happily most of my dogs – all rescues – have lived a long and healthy life. A couple of them I lost too young to cancer, but generally they all lived into their teens. I’ve used 2 natural remedies for helping them along once their joints started to stiffen with arthritis. One remedy I used with them all was turmeric. Another was CBD oil – hemp oil. I used this especially with a younger galgo who had suffered an accident at 2 months old to a rear hind leg and 5 vets all said the same, that if they operated on him there was no guarantee it would improve his joint action. So he was on CBD oil, although he amazingly had a high pain threshold. (pic is of my Polar’s damaged left knee joint.)
