 | |  | | I have been experimenting with Calcium/Magnesium Citrate with my 13 year old Black Lab. He was in severe pain with arthritis this last year and deteriorating badly. The vet said that pretty soon we would have to start using a sling to get his hind legs around. I asked the vet if I could try the Cal/Mag Citrate, Citrate because it is the most easily digestable. My Lab has been improving drastically. The existing arthritis in his spine, hips, legs, etc. has not gone away, but, he is getting up and laying down and walking around tremendously and back to enjoying his life. We have been able to knock back the various shots we were giving him which have glucosamine and Hialuronic acid as we also give him them by mouth. I just wanted to pass this along. We are just putting the powder in his food, and a 3/4 capsule in his mouth at night to sleep. He can't seem to digest the capsules. We are now giving him digestive enzymes with his Natural Balance food. |  |  | |  |
