Heating pad for senior dogs with arthritis

Has anyone purchased a heating pad for their dogs dealing with arthritis pain?

I really want to buy one for my dog. I want to get one that will help him, some days he has such trouble walking. I bought him an orthopedic mattress, so I need a heating pad that will work with his existing bed. I could purchase another cover and then lay the pad between the 1st cover and the 2nd cover on top.

I could get a microwavable one, but I really prefer one that will stay warm all night long for him. Sometimes his hips hurt him so badly that he does not like me to touch him.

I have him on joint supplements, and give him K9 aspirin for days when he is having the most pain.

Any suggestions, appreciated. Thank you.
