Hello. Sapphire is 10 years old and has been limping off and on for the past couple of years. Lately it is a bit worse. I am pretty sure it is the result of some old injury. I can't see any sign of inflammation, swelling, or anything in his foot or leg. He acts like the pain is in his foot, but there's nothing to see. He is eating well and gets around OK, seems pretty cheerful, but obviously in pain and I would like to give him some Meloxicam to see if that helps. I've been giving him a baby aspirin a day, and that does seem to help a little, but I'm reluctant to give him a lot of aspirin.
What would be the Meloxicam dose for him? He weighs about 10 pounds.
