Cecila and Max, When I was going through the extensive consultation visits for my Nash and if I recall correctly, my understanding of a partial laryngectomy is...
That is not necessarily true. I usually don't speak up publicly much about this issue but I realize that the popular procedure for LP is the tieback. ...
Del, I can't be sure you are responding to my post as there were no parts of my message leftover in yours however, if you are responding to my post I'm really...
Kelly, You have offended no one. In fact, this list favors and encourages unilateral tiebacks through the side of the neck performed by board-certified...
Hello Everyone. I know there are some other greyhound folks on this list and thought it was worth a try to see if there are others who would be attending the...
Debbie, When, in point of fact, I am offended because I and others who have chosen or had no choice on this procedure are being made to feel like we "tortured"...
First of all, thanks again to all who responded to my last two questions. I am glad that I posted the question about partial laryngectomy because he makes me...
"My attempt is to arm people with information so it might help their decision. My point being that just as I do not condemn you for having the tieback...
Cecila, I got a cooling pad for Otis (died 5/13/03) but it didn't do much good because he didn't really use it much. None of my other dogs did either. However,...

At any rate, is there anything I should know about cooling pads. Should I get one, shouldn't I? Are some better than others? I have not had success with the...
Im not sure what a cooling pad is, but as far as Greyhounds go, a cooling jacket is a simple terry-cloth jacket. You cool the hound by wetting the jacket and...
Yes, I seem to be! It seems that my second eldest greyhound (12.5), Ticket, probably has developed LP, according to the vet & his symptoms. No, we haven't...
Hello all- I'm coming out of "non-lurk" mode to let you know Spinner, our near 12 yr old Irish Setter, is scheduled for surgery for his LP Tuesday morning in...
Pat. I will be keeping Spinner in my thoughts tomorrow. We all know how crazy you feel. You did your job, though--you made those meatballs, for one. Just take...
Good Morning, Following is a website that sells handicap products for animals. I often read on this site about our beloved pups with neuropathy and extensive...
Hi, I bought that Bottom/s Up Leash from there. It didn't work very well for me. But the velcro strips that covered it worked well on Corky's harness. Betty...
Hi, Would you refresh our memories and let us know what Corky's breed is and how much he weighs. My apologies for not remembering. That knowledge might help...
I just got a call from one of Spinner's drs. He is doing well, but still coughing some after drinking a little water. I explained to him the nature of male...
Pam, I have never had a problem with drinking but I think since you have other dogs the method of putting rocks in the water bowl might help. This way they ...
Hi Pat Good news that Spinner has come through the surgery well. I am also in a multi-dog household and was unsure how to handle the water issue. For the...
Hi and Sorry, I forget we are supposed to put that at the end. Corky is an Aussie/Lab cross, age 14, and weighs 60 lbs. Betty and Corky [Non-text portions of...
Hi, I have multi dogs but fortunately (in a way) Corky is not a big water drinker like Spinner. He almost always just takes a couple sips. I have to keep his...
Thank you so much for your encouragement. I got Spinner home late last night. He was so glad to get home, but he wanted to make a bee-line to the water bucket...
Hi Pat...my condolences go to you and your family. Yes, our dogs seem to know what we are feeling and thinking . I went through something similar in August...
Pat, You're going through a lot of disasters all at once. My heart goes out to you. Regarding the water, you might want to check with the vet to verify, but I...
Hello all, Anna, my 9 year-old Borzoi, had unilateral tieback surgery on Wednesday of this week. The surgeon said he does about 1 of these procedures a week,...
