Did you know that pets can get arthritis too?  Both dogs and cats can suffer from joint inflammation due to injury, trauma, or normal aging.  Regardless of the cause, here are a few signs to lookout for in your pet.

Signs of Osteoarthritis:

  • Limping
  • Posture Changes
  • Reluctance to Move
  • Difficulty Jumping
  • Slipping/Falling
  • Behavior Changes
