What can you give a GSP for aches and pain after an extra long and hard hunt in the desert?

I am sure you can use ASCRIPTIN which is buffer coated 325 mg. of asprin.

It's not how many breaths you have taken but how many times it has been taken away!

Has anyone noticed common sense isn't very common anymore.

FWIW You might also want to find out what is wrong with your dog

If it is like Hip Dysplasia..there are some things you can do to help the dog not be in as much discomfort after hunting

things like adding glucosamine and Ester C to the dogs daily diet

Also I to give the baby aspirin to those dogs that need some pain relief

Agree with k9 on the Ester C. I usually give my dog's a couple in the evening with their meal. Seem's to work for them...
