Thanks, rock......but our vet does not want to use NSAIDS. She is now on Tramadol, 50mg.
That's what I found works the best for sever pain also. My old guy isn't there just yet but we do have a bottle of it on hand if needed.
Have you asked your vet about Devils Claw? that's something to look into if your vet ok's it. Just be sure to buy the 'pure' version of it.
I used this natural inflammatory it on my horse in place of bute and it worked wonders for her.
Sadly You won't find a pure version in what they supply for dogs. Which IMHO is just throwing money away and time wasted on not supplying the needed full dosage. I found this to be the case for all over the counter natural products marketed for dogs.
You will find the 99.99% pure version from a horse supply store. Then have your "vet" break down the correct dosage for your dog. This goes for all the Glucosamine and Chondroitin supplements, etc also. The ones sold for horses guarantees 99.99% pure. The dog versions don't. I buy all of mine from horse med suppliers. AND....it is less expensive for a better product. :C
