Ack! Why did Jackie lose weight?
Here are Peaches's x-rays: https://www.guinealynx.info/forums/viewt ... 10#1367610
She's got a fused spine and pretty terrible arthritis especially in her knee that means she walks like she just got off a horse.
Cosequin changed her whole life-she is a new pig because of it. We also give her meloxicam, divided into a morning and evening dose so she gets enough to last her through the day.

Incidentally, the vet said that Jackie specifically had lumbar spondylosis. Poor little dude. He was very grumpy with me and didn't even want his yummy meds yesterday when I got him home from the vet. But this morning he was so happy to have TWO syringes of tasty goodness (Metacam and Bactrim) to slurp on, so I guess I'm forgiven.
He seems to feel a little less pain when he sleeps like this:

Jackie's becoming an old man. Wow, time sure flies. Jackie and my Peanut would make a good old couple with their arthritis problems. They both could use a "scooter" to get around. I hope Jackie's ol bones feel better. Does he perk up around Suzi? Maybe he needs some girl lovin.

Poor old Jackie - he looks like he hurts. Hope the meds help ease the pain.
