Arthritis can be defined as the inflammation of joints. It occurs when there are wear and tear of cartilage which is found at the end of bones. Cartilage helps prevent friction between bones enhancing mobility. Glucosamine present in synovial fluids stimulates chondrocytes to produce cartilage.

As dogs age, their ability to produce glucosamine is greatly reduced. This leads to wearing off of the cartilage over time causing bones to rub against each other. Arthritic changes found in affected dogs include joint pain and swelling, lameness, difficulty rising from rest, slow gait, etc.

Arthritis is incurable. Management is geared towards relieving symptoms and improving the quality of life of the dog. It should be carried forward all through the dog’s life. This includes the use of supplements, diet, and medication.
