Hi Debee,

Just on arthritis - I've heard that celery is good - I'm guessing you would
need to cook it up and give them a bit with each meal.  I haven't used it so
can't give you amounts and how it works, so someone else may be able to help
there, or maybe google it.  I have heard that it works wonders though.  Good
luck.

Jo,

I loved all the herbal remedies for hot spots. I want to rush over to my
nearest shelter to help some dog, because mine don't have hot spots.

One thing that you didn't mention but that your message was full of was
love. Dogs may not grasp language like we do but they can sense when a human
cares, and is spending extra time making them special compresses and teas
and just touching them. I think this is why such a variety of different
treatments work.

I have a really old golden -- she's fourteen -- and people usually think
she's younger, sometimes they think she's younger than my working guide if
they just see her sitting.  I think getting a lot of attention, affection
and stimulation has kept her mind sharp and her body fairly healthy. I am
going to investigate some herbal remedies for her arthritis, because I've
resisted giving her drugs.  Thanks for your message which reminded me to
look in to this.

--Debee
