Research indicates that as high as 20% of all ageing dogs will suffer from canine osteoarthritis. As your pet gets older, issues related to eyes, skin and joints become more common, and joint inflammation is one of the most difficult to deal with. While there is no cure for arthritis, many natural treatments and lifestyle changes over the years have helped dog owners manage the condition and help their pet lead a comfortable and healthy life.

At Crooked Lane, we provide Australians with high quality turmeric for dogs, horses, and cats to help relieve arthritic pain. Read on to find out more about arthritis treatments for pets.

Massage

Canine osteoarthritis causes pain in the joints and tendons, and the ensuing stress can lead to muscle soreness in animals.  Learning to correctly massage your dog can have positive health benefits for dogs with arthritis such as increased circulation, increased mobility and reduced discomfort.

Dogs suffering from arthritis are often in pain, so it is important to refrain from messaging the affected joints directly. It is advised to seek guidance from a professional that will be able to teach correct techniques that can be continued at home.

Hydrotherapy

Hydrotherapy utilises an underwater treadmill which encourages arthritic dogs to move their joints and muscles without pain. The water takes the pressure off the joints and promotes mobility which plays a direct role in reducing arthritic stress.

Glucosamine

Glucosamine is a natural compound found in cartilage, the tough tissue that cushions joints. Supplementing Glucosamine may have some benefit in aging animals that no longer naturally produce adequate levels.

Turmeric

The active ingredient in turmeric powder is called curcumin and has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties. When administered in the correct dosage, whether as a combination of turmeric powder, a cold pressed oil and black pepper or a turmeric paste, turmeric for dogs and horses has been associated with a significant decrease in joint inflammation.

This may have beneficial effects on ease of movement, and reduced pain. Visit Crooked Lane’s website for premium turmeric for cats, and other animals.
