Alan, Did you shave the dogs neck? I tried a standard bath towel and could only get it around Forrest's neck 1 1/2 times, how many times should it go around?...

Hello all, We took our foster, Gandalf, to Dr. Durkes for GBI this past Friday. I've been really trying to reign in my optimism, so that I'm not making up any...
Thanks Melinda, Dr. D said he wanted to wait until Sidney is older, at this time he said that Sid is not a candidate not surgery. He wants to see if the brace...
