My dog, Steve, has been on Carprofen for years for hip dysplasia, arthritis, and spinal stenosis. My regular vet is unavailable, and the other vet in the office won't refill the Carprofen prescription due to kidney concerns. She suggests switching to Galliprant after a 5-day washout period, but I'm concerned about the pain Steve will experience during this time and the fact that Galliprant may not fully address his pain issues.

I have an 8-month-old, 7 lbs Chihuahua named Frodo with one descended testicle and one undescended testicle in his abdomen. We wanted to breed him, but are unsure if it's possible or if we should neuter him.
