    Hello All, My 5 year old Labrador sustained a shoulder injury last season, no matter how much rest I give her and gentle exercise she continues to limp if I start to work her. She seems not to be bothered tail still wagging but there is a visible limp. The vet keeps saying more rest or surgery (I will not put her under the knife), can anyone recommend any joint aid or any other product that may help. She is such a good working dog. Any advice welcome. John...
