I joined here just to discuss Galliprant.

My rescue cattle dog mix (adopted 7 years ago,) has a bad hip and is SO reactive at the Vet that they can’t easily (ahem) get the bloodwork needed to keep prescribing Rimadyl, which HAS worked very well for her. She’s not an “easy” dog, but a sweet dog at home and controllable otherwise except at the Vet office. A sympathetic Tech suggested Galliprant as it supposedly does not have side effects and does not require lab tests. But my dog has had GI effects (constipation) and a definite mood shift, becoming aggressive about food/treats, which is one behavior she’s never done before.

I can’t find much info about Galliprant side-effects, so I’m wondering about others’ experience with it and their dogs. Any feedback appreciated.
