Aled 434 Posted July 10 Report Share Posted July 10 Good afternoon all. My mongrel Celt is 7 in November and he has slowed down a bit this year. Anyway he had a yearly check up and kennel cough vaccine last week, and the vet suggested turmeric and cod liver oil to help with joint stiffness. So does anybody have any experience of using these? If so which ones do you suggest? The vet is a family friend and has looked after our families animals for years so i do trust his word. Comments? Advice? Many Thanks in advance.

Daniel cain 44,410 Posted July 10 Report Share Posted July 10 Turmeric is a natural anti-inflammatory...Ive used it for yrs to heal wounds on terriers and lurchers,mixed with honey...only thing thats ever come close to it...is the dry cow cream,they use on the udders etc...all my dogs have a cod liver oil capsule or a tea spoon of salmon/sprat oil over their biscuits...I believe it helps them out, especially as they get older and worn 2 Quote Link to post
