Our dorta has a rotwelder guard dog who is alwayz having leg probz, his body is very big, heavy, she lightly feedz him on the vetz advice but it seemz futile.

The sad one waz my fishing mate whose doberman was constantly whimpering with pain in his legz even though he waz being treated by the vet.
I had to take the poor bugga to have him put down, the dog I mean.
I would think twice about doing it for someone outside of the family again.
I used to see the doberman quite often and give him a packet of crisps which he opened himself, I missed that.

Swimming would be ideal for him I bet, they also recommend plenty of oily fish and a supplement called glucosamine.

If you just give-in and accept it you just go downhill. Noddy is coming on leaps and bounds, and his a bloody old dog already.
