Our 15 year old Dauchsand Princess was going up the stairs by herself bc my sister was too lazy to carry her down. She slipped on the carperted stairs and sprained her front left paw bad. We took her to the vet and they gave her some pills. They said there is also a patch, forget the name, which would relieve more pain but it can have side effects and may even make the dog wimper even more from hallucinations. Does anyone know of this patch? Is it mostly for broken bones and more serious injuries? The dog is finally settling down now after my mom and her couldn't sleep last night. The vet said we can increase giving the pill from 3 times a day to 5-6 if we dont go the patch route.
