Relieve your pet's arthritis-related pain with Rimadyl
Aging pets can face many of the same problems as their owners. Arthritis is especially prevalent among our canine friends-as many as 11 million dogs (or 1 in 5 adult dogs) are afflicted with arthritis. Stiff joints, soreness and inflammation can cause pain, loss of mobility and declined quality of life in humans and dogs alike.
Arthritis is a degenerative joint disease that mainly affects older dogs. Symptoms of canine arthritis vary, but there are some telltale signs that many dogs exhibit. These symptoms include stiffness in the morning, hesitation to exercise, reluctance to go up or down stairs, decreased appetite and defiant behavior. Dogs that are obese are more prone to suffer from arthritis. If your dog is exhibiting any of these signs, or if you believe your dog may have arthritis, schedule an appointment with your veterinarian immediately.
It's easy for owners to dismiss signs of arthritis as symptoms of "old age." But pets can continue to lead active, vibrant lives, even in their senior years. Your veterinarian may recommend a treatment program for your dog that includes changes in diet, an exercise regiment and the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
One of the leading arthritis treatments for dogs is Rimadyl. Developed by Pfizer, Rimadyl has been proven clinically effective for pain relief associated with arthritis. More than 10 million pets have been prescribed Rimadyl. With Rimadyl, your pet is able to move about freely, running up stairs and happily jumping into the car for a ride.

If these signs occur, discontinue Rimadyl therapy and contact your veterinarian. For additional product details, including drug interaction information, click here for dog owner information.
