Holistic Pet Remedies: Arthritis/Joint Pain

You know your animal has arthritis when s/he starts to:

• limp after a walk, short run or jump
• limp after going up and down stairs or hills
• have difficulty getting up from a resting position
• be reluctant or have difficulty going up stairs, climbing into cars or getting up to walk, trot or play
• slow down on running and walking
• guard certain parts of his/her body from touch e.g. being cautious with other animals and humans
• cry in pain when the affected joint is touched e.g. when examined by the veterinarian (when untouched the joint is usually sore and more tolerable)

Most pet arthritis dis-eases start from an old injury (even minor sprain and strain), usually unnoticed and undetected since young, that did not heal properly or completely. This leaves a hairline crack in the joint cartilage where toxins in the body (from processed pet food, vaccination, chemicals, drugs, pathogens) can enter. Chronic inflammation is the result (auto-immune disease). Over-exercise of an already weakened joint or muscle can further deteriorate the area.

Our 100% natural Joint Pain Remedy can help your pet with joint pain, joint inflammation, acid crystal formation around joints (from internal or external toxins), arthritis, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory arthritis and degenerative joint disease.

Detoxing your pet's system will help to eliminate toxins that circulate the body and fill the joints.

No need for pain killers, tylenol, aspirin or other pain relief medication that only masks the pain. Our remedies also help with hip dysplasia, joint trauma from new or old injuries and ligament tears (e.g. cruciate ligament (knee), achilles tendon (heel), etc.).

Our Long Distance Healing Service can help you and your pet with emergency and first aid care if your animal is in great pain. Our service is fast working and we can work with you even if your pet is at the veterinary hospital and complement with conventional veterinary care.

Suitable for dog, puppy, cat, kitten, horse, farm, wild, zoo and all pet animals with similar symptoms.

Case: 13 year old dog, Oliver, has arthritis on both hips. One time, he slipped on the short stairs and was not able to walk, get up and obviously in pain. The symptoms and immobility far outweigh the injury. There was not much the veterinarian was able to do.

WildPets Joint Pain Formula Plus was given. In 1 week, Oliver was able to get up, walk for 20 minutes in the park without distress. In 1 month, he was doing his usual 45-60 minute walk and even swim in the ocean and lakes. Caution is taken not to over exercise the dog. The arthritis remained but the dog went from zero mobility to living a normal life with fresh air, swimming and walks on the trails.

Oliver stopped using the remedy after he regained mobility. The remedy was needed only on occasions where he extended himself (too long a walk or running up and down steep hills) and only for a few days. The beauty of homeopathy and vibrational essences is that usually you don't need to keep taking it all the time, only for healing and when needed.

Case: 4 year old dog limping with joint pain in one of the front shoulders. He took WildPets Joint Pain Formula and recovered in 2 weeks. The dog has no known arthritis nor prior injury.

• Never over-exercise if your pet has an existing injury, strain or sprain, no matter how insignificant it seems to the pet (especially pups and younger animals). Reduce the intensity and length of exercise, give remedies and wait for full recovery.
• Consider switching to human-grade raw, semi-raw or cooked diet (organic raw is best) to reduce toxins intake.
• Use holistic remedies and therapies whenever possible. Avoid surgery if possible. Avoid vaccinations, chemical flea and dewormer programs, and chemical flea home treatment (see our Flea page for more info).
• Regular detox is essential to good body house-keeping. Detox twice a year for optimum health maintenance.
• Nutritional and other supplements may be useful for your pets.
• It is important to monitor exercise level and not to over stress the joints even with the help of any joint and arthritis medicine.
