Please don't. Whether he licks it or not, it will absorb through his skin. There are lots of wonderful medications made especially for dogs with this problem. They are not costly. At 9, your dog still has some good years left. Take him to the vet and get him some meds!

You should avoid BenGay at all costs, it is not an option as it will cause more harm than good.
You and your dog would be better served checking with your vet. There are all kinds arthritis medications for dogs now and I don't think they're that expensive.
There are many ways to ease his pain. Do a search on the Internet and it will give you many more options that are all better than BenGay.

Take your dog to the vets and have it examined. There are medications available to treat arthritis and do wonders in relieving the symptoms.
I can't believe some of the horrible advice given. NEVER give your dog ibuprofen or tylenol. Only baby aspirin at 1/2 tablet for ever 10 to 20 pounds of weight.

Imagine for a moment your arthritis completely vanishing right now.
If, in a moment, your pain and stiffness melted away. And your joints all of a sudden functioned like a well-oiled machine.
Like a magic wand was waived, you'd be able to jump up from your chair and run around the room like a kid.
And imagine that you'd never have to suffer as much as a pinch of arthritis stiffness or pain ever again.
I know this sounds impossible right now, but bear with me, because sometimes miracles happen.
It was a gift from a woman on the other side of the world. From the kindness of her heart, she took pity on my suffering and taught me how to completely reverse my arthritis.
Today, I want to do the same for you!

RE:
Is Bengay pain relieving cream safe to use on dogs with arthritis?
My dog, hes 9 years old, he has really bad arthritis. He's been doing good but lately his back right paw is so bad he can't even walk. I don't want to resort to getting him put down just yet because he's gotten better before but it hasn't really been this bad. Does anyone know...

Don't use Bengay. He could lick it off and get sick from swelling in the throat.
Do use aspirin for him. Big dogs can take 2 baby aspirins or even 3 if they are huge like a St. Bernhard. Small dogs like a yorkie should only have a half of one.

No its not safe not only could the dog lick it off his paw but it will definitely irritate his eyes. Talk to a vet, there are meds he can take for the pain. Never give animals any kind of over-the-counter drugs without talking to a vet.

ordering drugs online can cut costs considerably. A Consumer Reports study found that savings can reach 25% or more.
Experts say, sites that offer to sell "lifestyle" drugs such as Viagra and Propecia without a visit to your doctor's office. Those sites can charge as much as cheaper the usual cost of such drugs.

Generic drugs are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have the investment costs of the developer of a new drug. New drugs are developed under patent protection. The patent protects the investment--including research, development, marketing, and promotion--by giving the company the sole right to sell the drug. As patents near expiration, other manufacturers can apply to the FDA to sell generic versions. Because those manufacturers don't have the same development costs, they can sell their product at substantial discounts. Also, once generic drugs are approved, there is greater competition, which keeps the price down. Today, almost half of all prescriptions are filled with generic drugs.

DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT give your dog ibuprofen or tylenol. They will give him renal (kidney) failure. Go to your vet and get Rimadyl for your dog. There is even doggie aspirin at the pet store. Give him a glucosamine/chondrotin supplement every day. My dog got hip arthritis at the age of 5 and lived to be a happy dog to the age of 14. Go to your vet, they will know how to help you help your dog.
