My dog is 10yrs old; he’s a Golden Retriever and has hip dysplasia. Is there something we could give the dog to help with pain or improve the way he moves? Thank you all in advance.

Hip dysplasia is the biggest problem for large breeds in the US. As far as I remember from our own experience, there is nothing much to do except make the dog comfortable. Massage is a good idea but make sure that someone shows you how. Otherwise you could hurt him.
I hope this helps.
