Has anyone effectively used a natural pain reliever for their dog? I just wanted to try something natural before going to prescription NSAIDs. Thanks!

ETA: thought I might give a little more info. He's a 13 yr old shep/husky weighing about 70 pounds. Hips seem to really bother him, he's getting that shepherd down slope in his back end

Massage and acupuncture can have good effects, also hydrotherapy?

This seems to work very well for my hound. He has arthritis in his hips and front shoulder. He limped pretty bad before we started this stuff He moves quite freely now and seems to be pain free.
