greypop Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 (Jeff, feel free to move this to Off-Topic if appropriate.) Our neighbor received a tentative diagnosis of osteo in her 6-year-old Rottweiler. (Apparently, osteo diagnoses are about as common in rotties as in greys.) she's applied for a clinical trial at Penn, but hasn't heard back. I've read numerous threads here where posters suggest sending the test results to Dr. Cuoto forr a second opinion and consult. Does he do this for non-sighthounds? If so, what's the procedure/cost? If this is not possible, our neighbor will explore other avenues, but I offered to check. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4My2Greys Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 (edited) I couldn't imagine why he wouldn't. It's not like he'd be doing it for free like he used to do for greyhounds. A bone is a bone and osteo is osteo no matter what the breed. I think as long as the consultation fee is paid he would give an opinion. If I remember correctly from what has been posted the fee is $125 for the consult. Edited July 12, 2014 by 4My2Greys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubcitypam Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Don't see why he wouldn't but call and ask. http://www.coutovetconsultants.com/blog/dr-couto-will-be-consulting.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
