About
Join us on November 18th at 12pm in VEC 101 for a meeting on Canine OA, sponsored by American Regent Animal Health.
We will be serving food, so please RSVP.
Canine Arthritis, or osteoarthritis (OA), is a chronic and progressive joint disease that commonly affects dogs. This degenerative condition makes dogs lose their joint cartilage, leading to other changes in their bones and causing pain, inflammation and difficulty using the affected limb.
OA is not just a disease that occurs in senior dogs and can develop at any age, especially in dogs with contributing factors, such as obesity or other orthopedic conditions.
While there is no cure for OA, there are several strategies for slowing its progression, managing mobility and minimizing pain.
