I added 2 pictures today of the crate and Max. I taped down that no slide stuff in his crate too so his blanket wouldn't slide around when he stood up to get...

Thanks for the warning on the ACE dosages, that must have been very frightening when Bogie passed out. I guess we'll find out soon enough if the vet...

Hi, a surgeon will be able to give you a much better idea on whether your dogs hips are a candidate for TPO or not. I wouldn't bother having any x-rays done...
