  1. How does a hound get diagnosed with osteo? Is it through x-ray only? MRI?

     

    I've got a couple seniors and would like a heads up and to know what to look for. Thanks!

     

    Are either of them limping? If so, I would make a vet appointment.

     

    Limps at my house do mean going to the vet for a complete exam and x-ray(s).

  2. It's been just over 24 hours since the shot, and honestly I see no improvement in the symptoms that led us to try the shot. I know I shouldn't expect a miracle, but it's hard not to be disappointed when I hear how fast other dogs have benefitted from it. What it means to me is that Babesia is likely not Chancy's problem. :(

     

    Chancy's vet seems pretty responsive from what you have posted, so try to be upbeat with Chancy and patient with the meds. With a very low platelet count It does take a while, and that is what Chancy needs the Doxy for. Sending prayers. :hope:grouphug

  3. Since this poll was started almost 2 1/2 years ago it could be the numbers would differ some now due to additional/new posters etc. I think it's interesting that the percentage does not follow along with the percentage of dogs per color, so it would seem that genetics of both color and hypothyroid may be related? :)
