Arthritis is inflammation within a joint, typically resulting in pain, stiffness and reduced mobility over time. The most common type is osteoarthritis (OA), a thinning and eventual deterioration of the protective tissues between the joints.

In a healthy joint, cartilage and other tissues act as shock absorbers that help with smooth movement and flexibility. As OA degrades these shock absorbers, joint tissues become damaged and release substances that cause painful inflammation. When cartilage breaks down, friction develops between the bones. OA most commonly affects a dog’s hips, elbows, knee joints (stifles) and lower back.

Osteoarthritis, also referred to as Degenerative Joint Disease (DJD), is a progressively worsening inflammation of the joint caused by the deterioration of cartilage. In a healthy joint, cartilage acts as a cushion to allow the joint to move smoothly through its full range of motion. In cases of osteoarthritis, this cartilage cushion begins to break down because of factors such as age, injury, repetitive stress, or disease. The loss of this protective cushion results in pain, inflammation, decreased range of motion, and the development of bone spurs. While any joint in the body can develop osteoarthritis, the condition most commonly affects the limbs and lower spine.

Osteoarthritis can be difficult to detect in its early stages, and often the symptoms do not become apparent until the affected joint is badly damaged. Some dogs can also be very stoic and will hide their pain until it becomes severe. Thus, it is important to monitor middle-aged to senior dogs and those predisposed to osteoarthritis for early signs of joint disease. These signs include:

If you suspect your dog may be exhibiting signs of osteoarthritis, it is important to have your dog evaluated by a veterinarian, who will perform a full physical examination, including palpating your dog’s joints and assessing their range of motion. Your veterinarian may also recommend X-rays of the affected joints, which will help rule out other conditions that can cause similar symptoms. X-rays can also help your veterinarian evaluate the degree of damage to the joint.

Observation of your dog at home is another powerful diagnostic tool. Unless they’re experiencing acute, sharp pain, dogs rarely vocalize, so it’s important to monitor their habits and behavior. The symptoms of arthritis related joint pain in dogs can be subtle in the early stages.

Unfortunately, osteoarthritis is a progressive disease and there is no known cure. Preventing the development of osteoarthritis through diet, exercise, and the use of protective joint supplements is the best way to keep your dog’s joints healthy. When osteoarthritis develops, treatment is typically focused on controlling pain, decreasing inflammation, improving quality of life, and slowing the development of the disease. Treatment of osteoarthritis is usually multimodal, meaning that several different therapies are used simultaneously in order to achieve the best outcome.

These are often prescribed to improve function, reduce inflammation, and slow the progression of joint damage. Glucosamine and chondroitin are two common joint supplement ingredients that are used in both humans and dogs. These supplements work by reducing inflammation, promoting healing, and increasing water retention in the cartilage, which provides more cushioning for the joint. Green-lipped mussel (GLM) is another proven joint supplement ingredient for both humans and dogs and contains beneficial nutrients such as omega-3 fatty acids, glycosaminoglycans, and antioxidants. GLM is a powerful anti-inflammatory that can help decrease pain and preserve joint function. Joint supplements like Glyde Mobility Chews are often used as an early intervention and throughout the progression of osteoarthritis because they are safe for long-term use in most patients.

In addition to the use of joint supplements, pain control is a mainstay of osteoarthritis treatment. The most commonly used pain control medications for more severe osteoarthritis are Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs). NSAIDs can not only reduce pain, but also decrease inflammation in the joints. However, NSAIDs have significant side effects with continued use, particularly in patients with poor liver or kidney function. Your veterinarian will discuss the risks and benefits of NSAID therapy for your dog, and may recommend regular blood work in order to monitor your dog’s health during NSAID therapy.

Your veterinarian may also recommend other treatment modalities such as physiotherapy, acupuncture, cold laser, and changes in diet. In severe cases, they may recommend surgery to remove damaged tissue from the joint, or even to replace the joint entirely.

No matter what your dog’s joint health looks like, it is important to maintain a healthy weight and active lifestyle. In dogs with osteoarthritis, carrying excess weight on damaged joints is not only painful but can also speed up the process of cartilage breakdown. In healthy dogs, obesity can predispose them to earlier development of osteoarthritis, as well as many other diseases. If your dog is overweight or obese, your veterinarian is your best resource to help you begin a diet and exercise plan to improve your dog’s health.

Osteoarthritis is a painful condition, but fortunately, it can be managed. Maintaining your dog at a healthy weight and identifying signs of joint pain early are the first steps to maintaining your dog’s mobility. Joint supplements may also help manage inflammation and pain, as well as slow the progression of the disease.

Typically, joint problems in dogs fall into two major categories: developmental and degenerative. Developmental occurs when the joint or ligament does not develop correctly causing it to not function as intended. Degenerative, on the other hand, causes the ligaments around your dog’s joints to “degenerate” (or regress) over time. Similar to human’s, your dogs joints need to be properly cared for (proper nutrition, stretching, proper exercise, etc.,) or they can start to breakdown and cause discomfort for your dog. There are 7 other diseases that can affect your dog’s joints:

A: The two major categories of joint problems are developmental and degenerative problems. With developmental problems, you have things like hip or elbow dysplasia, where the joint does not develop correctly in a number of different ways.

A: In general, increased size and weight is always a predisposer of joint problems. So the poster children for both developmental and degenerative problems are going to be the bigger dogs.

A: It varies. We typically divide it into surgical and non-operative treatments. Surgical treatments can range from arthroscopic cleaning of a joint all the way up to total joint replacement.

On the non-surgical side, we look at several things. First and foremost, and the one that has the most effect on the non-surgical side, is weight management and body condition. We’re trying to get the dogs to an ideal weight so we decrease the stresses on the joints. We also actually decrease the inflammation because fat is a source of inflammation in the joints.

With body condition, we’re trying to get the dogs’ strength built up. That’s because the muscle mass and muscle function will help protect the joints and help the overall function as well.

In foods, we now have companies making quality foods that are formulated for joint health. They already have some of the additives in there, like fish oils, which help decrease inflammation, and glucosamine/chondroitin.

A: I would limit it until you get a good diagnosis and a plan with your veterinarian. If there’s a problem that causes instability, you can do a lot more harm to the joints. But in the long run, we want to get activity back. So we have to figure out if we need surgery to do that or if it can be done with non-surgical methods.

A: If you’re buying a puppy, especially if you’re buying a purebred puppy, check out the health problems in that breed, and check out that specific dog’s lineage. Most of these things have some hereditary component. A good breeder will have all that information. Many will volunteer it. But you certainly have the right to ask. And you should ask, especially if you’re interested in one of the larger breeds that are already associated with joint problems.

And if you don’t care about breed, buy a mutt. With a mutt, you’re going to have the best chance of not having those kinds of joint problems. The genetic diversity really seems to limit orthopedic problems overall.

Have your veterinarian evaluate your dog’s joints at least every year to see what’s going on. A lot of these things we can prevent from becoming a big problem if we catch it early enough. We can work on strengthening the body and avoid surgery altogether.

A: Yes. But you really want to consult with your veterinarian so you’re sure you’re spending your money on the right things. Studies have shown that some of the additives, like glucosamine/chondroitin, help when there’s arthritis present. It’s not a preventative; it’s not going to cure the joint. But it’s a good supplement when used with other parts of the non-surgical management or the post-operative management. It can slow down the progression of osteoarthritis.

At this point, there’s no cure for joint pain due to osteoarthritis, but there are an increasing number of options that can help your dog with pain; increase mobility; and, in some cases, slow the degeneration of joint cartilage. A multi-modal treatment plan that includes a combination of medicine, supportive care and home remedies has been shown to be the most successful.

Maintaining a healthy weightis an essential component to managing osteoarthritis joint pain in dogs. Obese dogs are more likely to develop arthritis because excess weight puts more pressure on joints, leading to increased stress. It’s important to discuss your dog’s weight with your veterinarian and create a weight-loss plan if needed.

CBD(cannabidiol, a cannabinoid derivative) is believed to reduce both pain and anxiety, and many pet owners are trying it for the treatment of canine joint pain. It is thought to be safe in combination with other medications, though it is partially metabolized by the same metabolic pathway as NSAIDs, so monitoring for possible side effects is advised.

At-home activities depend on the dog and the severity of her jointpain, but a 10-minute walk two or three times a day rather than one long walk is a good rule of thumb. Because excitement and activity release endorphins and adrenaline, dogs may feel less pain when exercising, allowing them to overdo.

Spending leisure time with your dog outdoors is also good medicine. Sunlight stimulates the body to produce vitamin D, which supports the immune system, reduces inflammation, strengthens joints and aids in calcium absorption. Enjoying some fresh air will also help your dog’s mood if pain has her feeling down.

Joint supplements such as glucosamine, chondroitin sulfate, MSM and others are referred to as nutraceuticals. They can be very helpful in reducing joint discomfort and may also allow reductions in the dosage and frequency of pharmaceutical drugs when used in combination.

Provide thick bedding, such as memory foam or an orthopedic pad. Heated dog beds or dog-specific heating padscan also help with joint pain (the temperature should be warm but not hot to the touch). Make sure your dog’s bed is large enough for her to stretch out if she needs to relieve pressure on sore joints.

Physical therapyis essential to fighting the effects of osteoarthritis in dogs. Low-impact exercise strengthens the muscles around joints, helps keep joints mobile and reduces pain from stiffness. Some larger vet hospitals now provide a variety of physical-therapy options such as ultrasound, shock wave and targeted Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (tPEMF) therapies, electrical stimulation, range-of-motion stretching, and cold-laser treatments.

Hydrotherapy(swimming in a warm-water pool or using an underwater treadmill) is a great low-impact exercise that improves muscle mass without overstressing joints. Swimming in cold water, however, can be counterproductive, causing both joints and muscles to stiffen up.

Although there is no cure for canine arthritis, there are steps you can take to mitigate the effects of chronic joint pain at home. By combining multiple elements of treatment and support, including pain control, weight management and low-impact exercise, you can help your arthritic dog enjoy her golden years.

It’s no secret that dogs are very prone to developing hip and joint problems. Some of these problems are genetic like hip dysplasia and some of them just come with aging. However, there are certain breeds and types of dogs that are more prone to developing hip and joint problems. This article will focus specifically on small dog joint problems. Often times dogs that were bred for certain qualities, like short legs, face more problems than other breeds.

The patella is a little bone located in the tendon of the quad muscles of your pup. It normally rests in a groove with the femur in the knee, and is also known as the knee cap. Patellar Luxation is a condition where the knee cap basically dislocates and pops outside of its little groove when the knee is flexed, which can be incredibly painful. According to the American College of Veterinary Surgeons (ACVS) patellar luxation is primarily a small dog joint problem, “especially breeds such as Boston and Yorkshire terriers, Chihuahuas, Pomeranians, and miniature poodles” (ACVS).

Patellar location can occasionally be caused by a traumatic injury, but it’s believed to be caused by multiple factors that may include the break-down of cartilage and soft tissues around the joints. Unfortunately, surgery is one of the only fixes for most cases but according to the ACVS, recurrence of knee cap instability is uncommon after surgery.

The Cranial Cruciate Ligament is essentially what is known as the ACL in humans. The University of Florida Small Animal Hospital says that its 3 main functions are to prevent the tibia from displacement, prevent hyperextensions of the knee, and prevent internal rotation of the tibia (click here to read the full article) . So it’s pretty important and having it rupture is definitely a big deal!

Unlike in humans, the CCL rarely ruptures because of a traumatic injury, but more commonly as a result of deterioration/degeneration of the ligaments and tissues over time. This type of small dog joint problem will leave your pup in serious pain and the inability to bare weight on the injured leg. If your dog is having trouble getting around, limping, you hear an audible clicking/popping sound, or see swelling in the knee, your dog may have a ruptured CCL. Get them to a vet!

Avascular Necrosis can be found in humans but is also a small dog joint problem. It is the death of bone tissue due to a lack of blood supply and can lead to tiny breaks in the bone and eventual bone collapse. In dogs, this most commonly occurs with the head of the femur. It can lead to chronic pain and arthritis of the hip.

According to Universities Federation for Animal Welfare (UFAW), dogs being affected by avascular necrosis often times hold the effected hind leg off of the ground because it is intensely painful to put any weight on it. Dogs with avascular necrosis will start showing symptoms as puppies and it is thought the cause is a recessive gene so some dogs may be carriers of the gene but not exhibit symptoms.

Elbow incongruity, sometimes called elbow dysplasia (ED), refers to bad alignment of the joint surfaces of the elbow. According to WSAVA, it is “the most common cause of forelimb lameness in dogs.” It is typically more common with large dogs, but is also a small dog joint problem. Dogs with ED typically start showing signs around 5 months old, which may include, “lameness elbow swelling, decreased range of motion and joint pain.” (click here to read the full article)

Unfortunately, many of these small dog joint problems are genetic or start from a very young age. It is extremely important to see a vet if your dog is exhibiting symptoms of any of these issues. Surgery is the only option to really fix many of these, but there are some things that you can do to promote general joint health overall.

One thing that many of the sources we mentioned discussed was managing your dog’s weight. Dog obesity is actually incredibly wide spread and the extra weight will put extra strain on your dogs hips and joints regardless of what issue they may be dealing with. So make sure your pup is getting a good healthy diet and is not overweight.

Another thing you can do to promote general joint health and support is including a glucosamine supplement, click here to read why glucosamine is important for you pup! Glucosamine is not a cure, it does help support new cartilage and tissue growth in the joints and helps them to stay lubricated and cushioned though.
