Has anyone else out there in Rottie Land used a fentinyl patch?

Yes; however I consider the patch to be a short term (to be used once, twice at the most) pain reliever--not to deal with chronic pain. If your vet is recommending it to deal with pain, then things aren't well. However it is a better pain reliever than Tramadol. The dog cannot lick it and the fur needs to be shaved where it is applied. IMO there are stronger pain relievers (time released morphine). Still, if I needed to rely on either one beyond several days, I'd probably PTS.
