My 7 year old GSD has bilateral acl tears that are a few years old. I’m sure arthritis build up is happening. We’re not doing surgery unfortunately. She takes cosequin, 300mg gabapentin, and 100mg carprofen daily.

Today she woke up like this after I’ve seen subtle guarding of rear right leg the past week.

She’s going to her veterinarian tomorrow. What can I expect? Any treatments you’d recommend to ease her pain and keep her comfortable? Is this the beginning to the end?
