Living with a Dutch Rabbit with Degenerative Joint Disease

If your Dutch rabbit has been diagnosed with Degenerative Joint Disease (DJD) then you may be wondering what types of treatment options are available. It’s important to understand that there is no cure for DJD and that most symptoms will worsen as your Dutch rabbit ages. Medications may be prescribed to decrease pain and inflammation of the joints. Physical therapy may also be ongoing to help add or enhance function to the joints. All of these treatment options will help lessen the pain and suffering of your Dutch rabbit and make him more comfortable. In addition, the use of soft bedding and a decrease in activity will also help your Dutch rabbit feel more relaxed. If your Dutch rabbit refuses to eat because of his condition try feeding him greens such as spinach, carrot tops, etc. Contact your veterinarian Midland, MI if your rabbit’s eating habits worsen.
