Hi Linda, An occational baby asprin like Gary said in the post below St. Josephs baby asprin would be ok, but remember like he said also no substitutes like tylenol or anyother pain releiver it must be baby asprin 1/2 is what I would start at. Another thing to remember also is that asprin is also a blood thinner so be very careful as to not over do it and keep close eye on her. If I were you I would still contact a vet ( a phone call at least) and see what they would recommend you do for her. There are alot of off lable drugs out there that can be used for inflamation accompanied with arthritis. Maybe a vet will have some suggestions for you. I have used a few of them and they worked well for me, even though they were labled for swine. Good luck and keep us posted.
