I do love to see puppy pictures, but we cannot have attachments on the list.
If someone wants to share pictures, they should put them on a website and
share the link.
Thanks and Happy New Year

Hi Mark,
We, too, had a positive experience with lameness using Rimadyl for my
elderly arthritic Samoyed; however, she did die from a type of spontaneous
anemia which may or may not have been related to this drug. This was prior
to owning my first Berner. Now I am hooked on this breed & ha
Has anyone used Rimadyl successfully on a dog that doesn't tolerate it well?
I tried Rimadyl a couple of years ago to help my old girl with bad knees. It
was very effective but bloodwork after the first 2 weeks or the standard
daily dosage showed increased liver enzymes. I never tried ba

Happy New Year.
There does seem to be quite a difference in opinion regarding the use of
this drug. I have two Bernese Mountain Dogs. I hate the use of most
medications. However following surgery each of my dogs were on rimadyl for
a short period of time - no longer than 6 days and I noticed
have dogs that lived much longer pain free because of
rimadyl. How many dogs has it helped versus how many have had bad side
effects? I haven't seen any sort of data that would give us a clue other
than what the drug manufacturer reports, which is 1 to 3 cases with bad
side effects per 10,000 dog

We had been given Rimadyl for our Baloo after his neutering surgery - for
pain. He had a terrible reaction to it - he was restless, panting,
couldn't/wouldn't stay still anywhere... always wandering around like he was
lost.
We couldn't stand it! We took him off it after a few d
Has anyone had any issues with side effects using Rimadyl in the short term,
in this case after tpo surgery? Molly woke up this morning with diarrhea;
we've called the vet and are waiting for a callback, so I just thought I

I used Etogesic for a long time on a berner with doggie MS. It was so much better for
her than the Rimadyl. I had no side effects and it worked well. I liked the once a day
dosing. I liked it and had good success with it.

enzyme levels are indeed elevated, the Rimadyl may increase those values over
time...yet it may be the best relief for your friend. Typically you will see
positive results rather quickly with the use of anti-inflammatories. I would

Hello,
It definitely sounds like to you need to look for pain management for
Bodhi - but you might want to consider Metacam instead of Rimadyl.
It comes in a liquid form and you can adjust the dosage very easily up
or down and it does not seem to have as many side effects as Rimadyl can

Hi Richard,
Were this my dog...
I'd try the Rimadyl (but I'd also try hard to fight the side affects).
It sounds like you've done the research, you've informed yourself of the
possible side effects, you'll monitor Bodhi closely (both by observation and
bloodwork).

He's on a low bulk feed and his weight is under control (slight padding
over ribs, but getting a bit bony).
For the last few months the vet has been suggesting we consider Rimadyl.
