Bichon-poodle with back-leg problems

4 months ago my dog was stiff and had alot of trouble getting up after a long walk or run with his dad. We gave him baby aspirin and he would be ok for a few days. I took him to the vet after a month of this and they tested for lymes, then took xrays. All looked great but he still is having the same problem, they gave him synovi but he didn't eat it I switched him to glucosamine also fish oil and osteo bi flex after two months he still is not any better and he is now having trouble all the time. What can i do next??

There are many good medications to manage arthritis pain in dogs, I have had great luck with, and often prescribe Rimadyl in cases of arthritis. Talk to your vet about what would be the best course of treatment for your dog. If your vet is not treating your pet to your satisfaction, seek a second opinion.

Maybe give it time. or maybe it is muscular and not anything that the x-rays would find
