Hi dr.O. I ran across this and wanted your opinion on it. I researched the drug firocoxib and it seems it has been used in dogs with good results.

My mare doesn't tolerate bute well, so I am interested in your opinion on this. Here's the article. http://www.thehorse.com/ViewArticle.aspx?ID=9843

I'd be interested in Dr. O's thoughts too!

While you're looking Dr. O, remember that thread about avocado/soybean for joints? Cosequin has a new product out:
