How Our Bichon Frise Got Relief From Arthritis Pain

Lexy is our little Bichon. She is going to be 7 years old in January and is only 12 lbs but runs a very tight ship (in other words, she is in charge).

For the first 5 years, she was a very active dog. She walked every day and enjoyed her time out and about. Then she started to lose her momentum and didn抰 care about her daily walks. We didn抰 think much about it at first as she was growing up, but as time went on it began to get worse.

We had read about the deterioration of joints concerning the Bichon. My husband Ken and I had always taken care of our Lexy but this situation had us worried.

We took her to the veterinarian and he made suggestions about surgery and possibly a regimen of shots each week and the cost for these things were going to put a dent in our money situation ?but we said anything for Lexy to feel better.

I had already been looking through catalogs and on line at products that claimed to relieve joint pain and could give Lexy a new lease on life. We said we should try something. What could it hurt because at this time we were carrying Lexy to go up and down stairs and to get up and down on furniture. She moaned with every move and all she wanted to do was lie down (and that was even hard).

We tried a product called Joint Care 2 Advanced with MSM from Doctors Foster & Smith for moderate to severe arthritic conditions for dogs and cats and is available on line at www.DrsFosterSmith.com or through their catalog. Within two weeks, we saw a return of Lexy抯 agility. She began to walk and play again like her old self! I even think Lexy was aware of the improvement. She was happy!

Lexy has now given us all the joy we experienced before and more. She has us laughing at her antics again. Even our vet could not believe the difference.

If you have a dog experiencing the same problems as Lexy had, give this a try and hopefully you will get the same results.

We along with our friends and family cannot believe the difference it has made for our Lexy ?she is back to her old (new) self again!
