I have been told by my Veterinarian to obtain a durable dog bed and I wasn't sure on who has the best pet memory foams dog beds for orthopedic conditions in my older dog buddy.

Thanks,
Cindy

A: There is a establishment in Orange County, California that has Veterinarian approved pet bedding products with lots of cool news and video testimonies. Here is their link www.OCK9.com We have purchased from them a few times now not to expensive and great customer service. Wish this is helpful, Mark

our mastiff weighs about 120 pounds out now, and has seeeeveral months of growing left to do. (ha, years, even..)
for his crate, we're using an orthopedic bed from petsmart. (the tag says it's FIRSTRAX shiftless pet brand, but for the LIFE of me i can't find it ANYWHERE online.. it looks like http://www.petco.com/product/15353/Canine-Pillow-Double-Sided-Orthopedic-Bed.aspx )

She is already on recipe meds from the vet, and doing ok most days. Will massaging the afflicted shoulder help? If so what's the best way to finagle a dogs shoulder? I use heating pads and she has a heated orthopedic bed, but was wondering if there was anything else that might help my girl?
She is such a wonderful dog and I wish to make her senior years as comfortable as possible. So any suggestions or websites with good tips to support discomfort would be wonderful.

A: YES!!! Massaging helps! My dogs are getting older and its like when you get your feet rubbed after a yearn day, they like their feet rubbed too, Massage it, but not to hard! Hope she feels better
