Sounds like Samson had a great vet visit.
Also happy to hear you like the new vet. I know how hard that can be to find a vet that you like. I'm still on my search. Thank goodnes Maddie has been healthy!
Buster had a bad stifle also. He had little if any cartiledge left...I believe that would be what we call the knee in the back leg? Anyway, when he had really bad days of not wanting to put any pressure on it, the vet would give him a shot, I think it was Adequan??? Not sure on that now, but I know it helped him tremendously, as well as the GlycoFlex and Synovi supplements. I think the adequan was a liquid form of glucosamine, maybe Sharon will chime in on this. That may be what your vet was talking about. If Samson does need it, I can vouch that it really was a miracle help for Buster, and it worked almost immediately.
Anyway, give my favorite senior a big hug from me and a big sloppy slurp from Miss Maddie!
