Due to some events at Kevin's office, we didn't take Oswald to the vet until yesterday afternoon. It was tough. I wasn't going to go with them but decided at...

My Dobe Jasper finally had his surgery Thursday, and all went extremely well. He's a strong chap, and is recovering nicely. Evidently he had a distraction...

All -- Just a heads up. If your Wobbler kid gets stung by a Yellowjacket, it can mean REAL mobility problems. Shelby got swarmed yesterday after a ground...
Sandy, thanks for posting. Lorelei got stung once by something (don't know what) and her whole face swelled, so she is sensitive to bites and stings anyway. ...
I have a friend whose dog has a 'non-wobbler' problem that I feel would benefit from homeopathic help. I know that someone on the list uses someone that they...
My wobbler boy has benefitted greatly with Magda Aquila's help: aquiline@... She is very active in the online animal community, educating people about ...
Sandy, My Dillinger got stung last year. His face was swollen so that his fur actually bristled out. He looked like a porcupine. He was fine the next day and...
Shelby is doing better today, but her mobility is still pretty messed up. You can see her spinal area, where she was stung by at least 7 of these (_!_) holes,...
Sandy, I am glad Shelby is doing better today. Razzie always worries me with stuff like that because he rolls around in the grass. He's been stalking...
My Greyhound got bit by a spider a couple of years ago, and a big chunk of his toe sloughed off where the bite was :( So the other day, he runs out the back...
Shelby did the same thing in 1999. Unfortunately, she ate a Brown Recluse which bit her in the throat as she swollowed it. Needless to say, that was touch ...

Marc: This is Sadie's Mom. After reading your email to the Wobblers Group I went to the links you suggested and read everything I could on Addisons. Well long...
Oh yeah, I'd rather be managing an AD dog than a wobblers dog any day. In a way I hope the ACTH stim test comes back positive for AD. If it does, get back to...
Thank you Marc, I really appreciate your help & the info. I'll keep you posted on the results of Sadie's test. Of course my Vet is still convinced it's...
Val I am sorry for everything that has been happening to you and your family. I wish you all the best, and I hope everything works out in your favor. Janet ......
Well, not good news....Sadie's test for Addisons came back normal or negative or whatever....we're so disappointed right now. We were so hoping it was Addisons...
Okay, if not Addisons, this still sounds like there is at least some of it attributable to some sort of hormonal problem. Talk to a specialist about this....
I agree Marc, I would check this out further too. My Francis, who was diagnosed with Wobblers and is also a Bordeaux, had a sister who had exhibited the same...
Valarie: I am so sorry to hear about Sadie's test results. I had a Dane, Cletus, that had a type of autoimmune disease and it triggered a lot of the symptoms...
Yah know Val, I forgot what kind of a dog Sadie is, but I wonder if there is an organization like Special Needs Doberman's for your breed. I had heard about a...
I'm in the "switch vets" camp. I find the roached back to be a very reliable indicator of non-trivial abdominal pain, and I certainly haven't seen that with...
We drove up and fetched Jasper this last week. He's been away six weeks. I think I mentioned that they had to have two surgical attempts, because the surgeon...
