Any ideas for a dog with arthritic hips?

Question by Melissa K: Any ideas for a dog with arthritic hips?
Our lab mix is almost 7 years old and is starting to take a little longer to get up from a laying position. I think her hips are getting a little creaky, though she doesn’t seem to be in any pain, just a little slower. Any suggestions about what we can do to slow the arthritis – certain foods, OTC medications? She has been taking a joint vitamin for just a couple days that I bought at the pet store, but I wanted to see if anyone had any other suggestions.
