PAIN ASSESSMENT
Pets age faster than people. We notice your pet is approaching a senior age. Have you noticed your dog slowing down? There are many signs of a silent disease in dogs called osteoarthritis. As a matter of fact, one in five dogs in the US suffer silently because not all pet owners are aware of the signs of the disease.
