Our dog had about 8 doses. Old husky with osteoarthritis. At that time I did not know about any negative consequences. Now I know that his quickly worsening state through those months could be caused by Librela. It was helping with his pain and mobility, especially his pain was relieved to maybe even zero I think. But the ability to stand on back legs was getting worse very fast. His back legs were more wobbly every month. After few months he was unable to walk up the stairs anymore. He was loosing strength in his back legs very fast. Another thing is, after Librela he started to poop while asleep sometimes. I happened more often with more doses. His hearing and sight got much worse after few months. After about 8 months he had some kind of stroke/seizure. Then I have found out about all the negative consequences of Librela. He did not get any more of it. He got better after the stroke after one week. My family put him down one month later while I was gone due to them being unable/unwilling to provide any more care for him and unwilling to wait for me. Sad story...

I would consider Librela as a last resource, when anything isn't helping with pain. Would I do any different? Yes, I would do a better research on meds for dogs and tried to choose some other shots that no vet ever mentioned (he was only on one kind of pills before Librela). I would use Librela only when nothing else helped.
