Welcome to Dogsey.

I am sorry that your dog is unwell. If you could give us the name of the condition from which she is suffering then someone here may have experience of it.

What exactly has your vet said and recommended? Please give us as much information as possible

the vet says that even if they xray her they may not know what is wrong. he has prescribed a worming treatment: panacur, but her toilet behaviour is normal so is her appetite. i am searching the world wide web now to see if i can find out anything to help me help her. thanks for your kind messages. xx
