  1. I have heard of Dr Skylos, Dr Honor Ame Walesby did Daisys knee, she was very good, staff great. She did another surgery on one of our other greys about 2 years ago and we really liked her. She is in Catonsville, Md.

    We are in Finksburg its about 1 1/2 hour from Washington

    Wishing the best for Velvet

  2. My 5 year old "Daisy" had TPLO surgery 6 weeks ago. I have no idea how she did it and both my vet and the surgeon said it was very unusual that a Greyhound had a injured ACL (total tear)

    We are doing good, with PT, leash walking, and off the sofas which has been the hardest. have about 16 weeks to go.

    There was a sigh of relief when the diagnose was ACL and not Osteo…..Crazy

    Good luck with Violet...……

    I see you are in Md. who are you going to see

  3. I also have a very picky eater.....She seems to get tired of her

    kibble even when I put in extras. She too is a very small grey only

    52 lbs and 11 1/2 years old. but always has been a picky eater

    I cook up chicken and ground beef to add to her kibble and then

    I sit on the floor and hand feed her (not with a spoon, LOL) Very seldom

    does she eat by herself.

    Yes, she trained me early in her life and now has me wrapped around her little

    paw. Its our together time

    I know how you are feeling and my heart is breaking for you

    It was this time last year that Bodie, Carrier then my Max had their

    Amputation. Max lost his battle back in April.

    When the time comes I know Max (with four legs) will be there to help him cross the

    Bridge and will show him all the fun things to do.

    My thoughts and prayers are with you and Bodie and your family

     

  5. My new boy whom we have had 6 weeks has the worst bowels

    I can't really say its diarrhea cause he only had 2 sometimes 3

    a day but when he does its either soup or thin pudding.

    He has been to the vet with 2 samples the last one he sent out

    for evaluation and came back negative. He has been on

    Metronidazole (flagle) 50mm 2 x day for 10 days.

    no change.....1 week ago I started to switch from Natural balance

    to purnia one for sensitive systems. so far no change

    I've tried pumpkin, nothing---He is happy, eats great, plays shows

    no sign of sickness...He is two never raced and a real sweetheart

    Oh, he weights 72 lbs.

    Any suggestions

  6. What is the difference between Frontline Plus and

    Frontline Top Spot. I have always bought and used

    (9 years) the Frontline Top Spot. (purple box)

    Went to buy it at the vets yesterday and he only is

    now selling Frontline Plus. I am always leary of changing

    something that is working.

    What is the difference? and do you use is safely.

     

  7. I do carry VPI on all three Greys...

    I have had it on Max for 7 years and other then normal

    yearly check-up and shots had never used it.

    Then we were hit with Osteosarcoma, they have been

    wonderful, without it we would never had been able to

    do what we have done for Max.

    He just had his 4th Chemo and doing great.

    Wouldn't be without it........

    Thats what insurance is all about, when you need it - its there.

  8. Our Max who is 10 1/2 yrs old,has loss 9 pounds since April.

    Actually this time last year he was 92 lbs. in April of this year

    he was 88 then I had him to the vet on Thurs. for an eye infection

    and he weigh in at 78. The vet did a blood panel and called last

    nite to say that everything was in the normal range. (kidney, thyroid

    etc.) We need to take a urine sample for testing...as the vet said

    something is causing the weight loss

    He is eating 4 1/2 cups a day of the Nutro senior diet, and treats during

    the day.

    Any ideas
