Blend to Ease Arthritis

 

As recommended by some veterinarians, soften your dog's bed to make it very

cozy and warm. If your dog is an 'outside' pet, allow him to sleep inside. A

little moist heat, applied directly over painful joints, can be a great comfort

to arthritic pets. Get him a warm sweater, or apply a moist heating pad. And

massage the area twice a day with the following blend to soothe the pain away.
