Senior pets can develop an inflammatory condition from joint wear and tear, especially if overweight. Some breeds have a higher risk of this condition. At Neighborhood Veterinary Center, our vet in Hallandale Beach, FL, can examine your pet and run tests to diagnose arthritis. Our veterinarian can then review arthritis treatments with you for treating your pet. Make a pet wellness appointment with us for veterinary care if your pet shows any signs of arthritis.
If your pet struggles to stand up when lying down, this can be a symptom of arthritis. This condition causes achy, stiff joints, making it hard for pets to move. In addition, your pet might be reluctant to jump onto furniture or into the car.
Your pet might limp if one or more joints are sore due to arthritis. You might notice limping more when your pet gets up in the morning after sleeping all night. Our pet care team can check for arthritis and recommend treatment to ease symptoms.
Pets with arthritis often have trouble moving around when joints are stiff and sore. Your pets might have difficulty going up and down stairs. Cats might need help jumping onto higher surfaces.
Arthritis can make it tough for pets to groom themselves due to limited flexibility. Cats may not clean themselves due to sore joints. Dogs might bite at the painful areas, leading to skin problems. Our pet wellness team can ensure your pet receives effective care for arthritis to reduce these issues.
