By Geraldine Dimarco


Many people have been asking me what to give a dog as a pain reliever. There are so many out there right now, we naturally want to know which one is the best. I mean, we could only take so much of our dog's crying and suffering right? So if you want to know more about the most effective dog pain relievers- park your search engine surfing fingers and read on to find out more here.

Suffice it to say, canine language is not something we're particularly adept at. Really- barks, growls and whimpering do not a coherent sentence make. Be that as it may, a suffering canine is unmistakable to us who know our pet. He will most likely by crying or whining, restless and have no appetite to eat or to move around as much. When these symptoms manifest, you need to visit the vet right away to find out what exactly is bothering your dog.

The vet will have your dog undertake a few tests to verify the nature of your pet's pain. Frequently, they will find that arthritis is the source of it. Sometimes, the discomfort is caused by a really bad allergic reaction to a kind of food or an ill effect to some form of dog ailment. Determine the cause of it and treat it accordingly.

NSAIDs or non-steroidal, anti-inflammatory drugs are generally prescribed by vets to the suffering canine. There are several kinds of NSAIDs that are safe. However as with all drugs, some subjects do not do well with chemicals contained in the medications. Check with your dog's veterinarian as to the correct dosage you should administer to your pet.

Nowadays, holistic and natural remedies are an alternative that more and more people are getting into-even for their pets. They are perceived to be safer because instead of chemicals, these products make use of herbs and natural essences to specifically target problematic functions in the dog's body. Find great natural dog pain relievers in specialty sites and canine stores online.

St. John's wort, feverfew, chamomile and licorice are really good herbal remedies to help in easing your dog's discomfort. Aloe Vera is renowned for its effectiveness in soothing cuts and wounds that flea problems oftentimes cause. You can also repel these pesky parasites by spraying on eucalyptus and fennel blends on the dog's coat, beddings and collars.

There are times that your dog needs to undergo some sort of procedure or operation. Ledum quickens the restoration of the strength of his tendons and ligaments. Bellis eases soreness; and Phosphorous helps reduce nausea as well as bleeding. Again, never administer any treatment to your dog without the vet's expressed approval or knowledge.

Now you know what to give a dog as a pain reliever-time to enjoy your time with your pet! There is no need to worry excessively about sicknesses and infections because even when it comes-you will know what needs to be done. Do your best with him and have fun!
