Hi, Sadie was at the vet to get an x ray done on her paw. Vet said she has severe arthritis. Put her on Gabapentin 3x a day. Her liver function is a little elevated have a quick question will the apple cider b helpful to add in her food? Will that help with the liver

I do not recommend you add apple cider to Sadie's food, as it is unlikely to help her liver values and it could lead to gastrointestinal issues like vomiting or diarrhea. See the link below for more information about liver values in dogs, as well as some supplements you can ask your vet about that may help: https://veterinarypartner.vin.com/default.aspx?pid=19239&id=4952533 https://veterinarypartner.vin.com/default.aspx?pid=19239&id=4951818
