Does the Placebo Effect work on DOGS?
Medical science never ceases to amaze me.
So chondroitin may not work. Fine.
But one of the doctors says: "If patients say that they benefit from chondroitin, I see no harm in encouraging them to continue taking it as long as they perceive a benefit." In other words, let 'em placebify.
But what about the DAWG? Does that work for her? Believe me, I receive more annoyance from trying to make her take her glucosamine/chondroitin than I perceive benefit.
