Arthritis & your dog Just as in humans, arthritis is a condition that can cause pain, swelling, and stiffness in joints.

There are several causes; sometimes arthritis may be a result of an old injury (for instance a road traffic accident), or the joint may become damaged simply through wear and tear because of old age.

In fact, many older dogs suffer from arthritis, and vets consider all dogs over the age of seven to be older.

In dogs, the most commonly affected joints are the knees, elbows, hips and backbone.
