Did you do the neck wrap before or after the GBI? Sizzle has arrythmia, so was not a candidate for GBI, so Dr. Durkes told me to do the wrap on her for several...
I have to second the neck wrap suggestion. We take a bath towel, fold it in thirds lengthwise, and tape it up. Whenever our dane begins to have serious...

My Dane girl is 4 years old. She has wobblers caused by an injury 2 years ago. I too am a vet tech. Initially I did have her on Prednisone (when she fell she...

Hi Sharon, We had more problems with leaky urine. We slung a towel under our newfie and held onto his harness. He wasn't thrilled about it, but I think he...
... ## We don't have any urine problems. Just this bowel thing. It just started last Thursday, not quite a week ago. He is having quite a bit more trouble...

Since the GBI he has been fairly stable on his feet. If you were to see him walk, you would know that there was something wrong with him, but he wasnąt ...
... ## We did try accupuncture, quite a bit, but we didn't have much luck with it. We've tried homeopathy, accupuncture, Chinese herbs, prednisone, you name...
Sharon, Maybe he slipped or landed hard and it is temporary. Maybe he just needed to rest up. I'm curious why the vet is hesitant to put him back on low doses...
Stacy- I know exactly what you mean. Someday's Junior seems to be a normal dog and I get the feeling that he will be okay and everything is not as bad as I...
