Human: Is there any way to tell if my dog is suffering from arthritis? Assistant: 
Yes, it is possible for your dog to suffer from arthritis. Symptoms of arthritis in dogs include stiffness and pain when moving or getting up, difficulty standing up from a lying position, lameness, decreased appetite, weight loss, and changes in behavior such as increased vocalization or lack of interest in playing. If you notice these symptoms, consult with your vet to determine the best course of treatment.
