Oh, I am _so_ glad that you brought home a new boy. He's very handsome, and clearly off to a great start. Sadi did well. Congratulations!

I'm so sorry.

She went every 2-3 days for a few visits, then was able to maintain for a few months at once/week. She got into trouble in November, but I saw it coming, and just did an extra visit or two until she stabilized again. After her August collapse, I added Tramadol and Methocarbamol to the Metacam she was already getting. I didn't stop them even after she was back on her feet. ETA: I'm fairly sure it wasn't the extra meds that helped her in August because we'd used them before without that much success. I credit the laser treatment for her recovery.

Cal had a similar sudden collapse last August. Laser therapy brought her right back. I don't know if you want to subject Lucy to the clinic visits though.

I'm so very sorry. Godspeed Moose.

They both look terrific. I hope that they remain happy for a long long time.

I am so very sorry.

What a pretty girl! There are quite a few GT members with Galgos.

I assume that amputation/chemo is a serious alternative, so what I have to say is going to be unhelpful at best, but... I have ruled out amputation/chemo in all cases to date. When the diagnosis has not been clear, we have sometimes treated for a possible bone infection with Clindamycin. We've also repeated the x-rays, although the interval has varied depending on symptoms and the nature of the original x-ray. As Burpdog says, after losing a few to osteo, you get to know even when the x-rays lie. (I've also been wrong--I thought Pink was finished over a year ago. She's still here.)

Sounds like great fun! I love that Clarice is offering stuff. That can be really tough to encourage. Go Clarice! Go Ozzie!

:)

Ooooo, I've been wondering about you. Glad you're back.

It helped some of my girls a lot. Especially Cal, who was occasionally incapacitated--it got her back on her feet.

I'm so very sorry. He was a special boy and he left much too soon. Godspeed Scotch.

What finally worked for Pink was rain--she didn't want to get soaked. I think there are some good suggestions here, especially about movement. Some dogs need a lot of space and a bit of a run, at least while they're learning.

I'm so very sorry. She was incredibly beautiful. Godspeed Sadie.

What a fantastic report! I hope that Sid soon returns to his pre-corn self and has no further trouble with that food.

I'm so very sorry. Your pretty girl left much too soon. Godspeed Pinky.

I'm so very sorry. Your big sweet boy left much too soon. Godspeed Woody.

He's very cute. And he clearly has figured out retirement.

What a lovely girl! Congratulations! (Looks like she'd rather stand on grass than snow. )

I am so incredibly sorry.

Congratulations! He's a very striking boy. And he sure does love to run.

I'm so very sorry. He left too soon. Godspeed Get Em.
