Maddie, Thank you for the update. I do agree with Harriet about telling the surgeon about Fritz' UTI. Lily has had UTI for quite a while now, and we had to...
Mary Jane, My Walker (10 year old Samoyed) had LP surgery about 4 months ago and I can happily say that he is doing well now. He was also originally diagnosed...

Hello, I am wondering what types of treats people are using for their dogs after LP Surgery. Ruby, 10 1/2 year old newfie, had her surgery on July 25th and is...

A while back someone mentioned that their vet gave them (I'll need an Rx in FL) oxygen to have on hand in case their dog had an episode. If anyone knows who it...
