Hi Kathy, I know how you feel to an extent. For the first six months Trax would periodically backslide although his symptoms were not as severe as Luke's. It...

hello everyone, Brutis update. He is the english mastiff I have treated only with prednisone. He will be 3 in april and is still doing great on 5mgs twice a...
Hi all, Thanks for all of your responses last month when I joined the list. Just wanted to let you know how we're coping with the Wobbler's. Things are going...
I am glad to hear that everything is going so well. Janet ... From: Trina To: wobblers@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, January 05, 2004 6:55 PM Subject:...
Hi Trina. Glad it's going well. We saw great results with the raw diet, even before we knew what we were dealing with. There is a lot of natural glucosamine...

All -- I suspect there are folks out there on this board who can lend me some insight and reassurance that my most recent decision was solid and sound as it...
Hi, welcome to the group :) I'd do the same thing about considering surgery for a 12 year old dog; age has to be taken into consideration. Most of us here...
Geez, what a tough question. Twelve is pretty old for a Dobe. I will be so delighted if I get 12 years out of my wobbler boy (he's 7 and 1/2). I think it...
My thoughts (which won't be universal, but some will agree <G>) The surgery isn't that helpful as a rule--but if you're in an area and can afford them--the...
Thanks for the welcome! And -- I'd be open to acupunture -- and Shelby is so easy going she'd be a great candidate for it! Any ideas on how to locate someone...
First...I am sorry for your loss of Cobra, any time you lose a companion and no matter if some time has passed, it is tough. Kidneys are affected after long...

Sorry to pose such a tough question, but sometimes the tough ones are the most enlightening! *smile* Thanks so much for your reply -- and believe me, I ...
Thanks for the input. I'll ask about dexamethasone when I call to give my vet status tomorrow morning. Shelby (she) is currently being perscribed 20 mgs once...
Cobra has been gone 3 years now, and her loss still stings. It hurts to think one went into an orthopedic procedure with the best of intentions on a young...
I know right where this is!!! While it's not next door, its only about 45 minutes away, and may be worth researching. Again, something else to ask my vet...
Hi. sorry to hear about Shelby (and Cobra). Check in the files section for this group. There is a file with a list of sites about gold bead implants. Also...
The site is www.eudaemonic.net Go to RVI and you will find the lowdown on the medicine and the study. Good Luck! [Non-text portions of this message have been...
HI: I thought I would share some of my own experiences with my 10 (now almost 11) year old Doberman. In May 03, he developed rapidly progressive weakness...
