    Anti-Inflammatory/Swollen joint above foot

    I have a good young dog, he was hurt as a puppy and he has always had a somewhat swollen joint above his foot. Seems to be a lot of scar tissue and possibly fluid. Dog hunts hard and after opening day he is really swole up. Is their an anti- inflammatory or something I can give him to help keep the swelling down - he is a good young dog off Jimmy B and I will not run him to the point of coming up lame, however he is great to hunt with. Any help appreciated.

    You might try putting him on Glucosemine tablets or capsules.
    This should help reduce the inflammation, and if you keep him on them, may prevent the swelling from returning.
    I had it do wonders for one of mine, but after about 6 months took him off of it. Had some minor swelling after that but it did not seem to slow him down!

    Hope this helps!
