I know some people give MSM along with Glucosamine Chondroitin for arthritis relief. I give my German Shepherd Dog Glu/Chond every day, (he's suffering with arthritis and now it looks as though he's got hip dyspasia too). Also, Flax seed oil (the liquid, not the pills), helps with inflammation. I think it's the omegas that help, I've seen visible results (less limping, more movement), in both dogs that I've given it to. They also like the taste (mixed in food). You can get the flax seed oil in any health food store.

I have only, until recently, heard of it being used for arthritis in dogs, horses and humans. However, I saw an anecdotal testimony to it being used with feline leukemia. Then again I read about it today being used for feline leukemia in the book Natural Pet Cures by John Heinerman.

Cherie,
MSM is Methylsulfonylmethane which is a supplement sold on the vitamin counters and most commonly used for arthritis. It is a relative of DMSO.

i give it to my 13 yr old dog 1x daily as prevention for arthritis. never
read about giving it to cats. I have to hide it in liverwurst. he goes for
a check up next week and i am going to ask for x rays to see how he's doing
as I've noticed limping very very occassionally.
