Back From The Edge...

This is Lucy.  She is about 13 years old and had developed arthritis and was very sore....almost unable to get up much less take a walk.  Our Vet recommended Rimadyl to help with her condition and advised us of the potential side effects.  Initially it worked very well for her.  After being on it for several months she developed severe liver problems and became very lethargic....lost her wonderful attitude and appetite. I elected to put her on a cleansing diet and stop the Rimadyl....I chose to put her on Advil...one in the morning and one at night with her "homemade special for Lucy" meal.  She has her appetite back and there is spring in her step once more....she is truly back from the edge.
