greysmom Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Did you just xray his leg/shoulder?? When Dude's osteo metastisized, it was in his spine, and hadn't shown up on any of the previous xrays we'd done of his limbs, but was clearly there (and had been there a while) at the end. I'm just paranoid about it, I guess, but I always mention it. His grumbling about being lifted is what prompts me, as it indicates something else might be happening.

We've got some of his spine on them. He's also been to the Chiro recently and I feel like adjusting should have caused extreme pain if there was anything going on in his back.

seeh2o Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Good news! I hope you can get to the bottom of his discomfort. My first thought was a touch of arthritis in his back. My beloved Chow mix, Sheila, had that. It caused some heavy sighs and moans as she got older.

MaryJane Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 I'm sure that you have already checked but, maybe worth another look at his pads for corns. Larry's corn causes problems with his back because of the changes in his walking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a_daerr Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 I'm doing a combo of Cosequin and Missing Link (Joint and Hip formula) for Henry. I can't really say I saw miracles, because we started using them preventatively. But I did notice that he's no longer shaky on his back leg anymore. Some people on here swear by Fresh Factors for older greys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
