For dogs with Arthritis i suggest that if they are struggling with walks cut down your walking time. eg. you take your dog for half an hour walks, try taking five minute walks and stop when your dog needs to. Also be careful with what your feeding your dog because sometimes that contributes to arthrits. If you feed your dog human food even as a treat I suggest you stop. Hope this Helps!
