About 3 to 4 months ago my girl Alley (Yellow Lab) was not doing real good as she was 12 years old in Sept. Both dogs stay with me downstairs most of the time. Well my girl started not coming up the steps in the morning around 6 am when they wake me up to go out. Some days she did not get up the steps and go outside until lunch or later. I was getting real worried about her as she weighs 115 lbs and I cant carry her with my back and knee problems. I already had her on Dashquin and tramadol. I called the Vets again and they gave me a med called "Galliprant" to put her on. They said it helps older dogs a lot and it sure did . Three days later she was doing much better and she is still doing good up to now. I am so happy she is doing better as we have had her over 10 years as I got here from my brother when she was about 1-1/2 years old. We have had my black Lab/Border Collie since he was 6 months and he will be 9 in a month. I also worried how Jack the black one ( he is 100 lbs) would act if we lost Alley. But thankfully both are doing very good right now. I even notice my girl Alley having more energy doing the day. This med called Galliprant has really helped her. And these guys are my best buddies since I am retired on disability I spend a lot of my time with them. They are a big part of my family and I love them very much. Ron
