My dogs paw is hurting

Question
Hello, I was wondering if you can help my dog? He is a collie, about 7 and a half years old, and has had a limp in his right paw for a few months now. Up until now, it hasn't been too serious: he could run and play like usual.

Tonight, he could barely walk. To get him out there (to do his business) I had to hold and holster him throughout.

I'm worried it might be artritis, but I'm not too sure. I'm taking him to the vet tomorrow, but can you give me a general idea of what's wrong with him?

Thank you for your time;

-Adam, Michigan

Answer
Hi Adam - yes, a vet visit sounds like a good idea.  It may be a joint problem or arthritis.  Your vet will take some x-rays and see what is going on... Good Luck

Let me know what happens...I can help with supplements, oils and good nutrition... Good supplements are a Big Key in pet health.

Talk to you soon!
