:Thank you for sharing this story. My almost eight year old BC cross has had spondylosis and arthritis (secondary to cruciate damage) for several years and I've had much success with diet, supplements and acupuncture...but as Lila ages, I know there is bound to be progress of the disease and I dread the scenario you've described. I'm trying everything possible to give her as long and as happy a life as I can. I went to the site and I will order a jacket for her today. I also own a yahoogroup for canine arthritis and I'll pass the URL onto my members, whom I'm sure will be interested and grateful.

Thanks again for sharing and all the best to Sophie,I hope she continues to feel better. :-)
Catherine and Lila
