Very glad to hear it's helping your dog. As I said; all reports I've obtained have been ; yes, helpful but not nearly as effective as some NSAIDS. I've talked to probably 5 or 6 vets and they've all said basically the same. Hopefully reports will get better as more of it is used. Since this sounds like the first med you've had to use you have nothing to compare it with and no need to as long as it's working. Pretty much all arthritic dogs progress at variable rates and if your pup is just starting to need treatment you would expect galliprant to handle that. I have a Golden therapy dog that's been on previcox 7 months and at some point i'll probably try it on him but a university orthopedic guy was one who told me stick with previcox.
If you wonder why I don't use my own client's experiences it's because I specialize in horses; hence all my broken bones and ruined joints. I always have rescue dogs and therapy dogs and every one of them has developed arthritis, ACL tears etc so pain management is about the only area in canine medicine I feel competent in and have done a ton of research. I love my dogs.
Going to a meeting on specifically this subject mid February so I'll ask the speaker/specialist his opinion and if any value I'll let you know.GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR PUP AND I HOPE IT WORKS FOR A VERY LONG TIME.
