Welcome to the DM List. This List is for parents of dogs that have, or may have Degenerative Myelopathy. Our group has been active since December of 1998. It is intended to be used as a support group to help one another get through the up's and down's of DM. It is not intended to be used as a source for medical information. Any discussions here regarding medical treatments are for discussion purposes only. Please do not start your dog on any program without first researching it thoroughly and discussing it with your dog's Vet. There are several web sites where medical, and additional information can be found: http://neuro.vetmed.ufl.edu/neuro/DM_Web/DMofGS.htm http://www.freewebs.com/dmroster/

However, at this time *all* DM treatments are still considered experimental and should be discussed with your Veterinarian.
