So sorry to read the news Lynn. It makes Jack's accident seem very insignificant in comparison! At least, being young, they do heal quickly! Keeping fingers crossed it's straight forward.

Anita wants it done as she says it may well help stop the onset of early arthritis him being a large breed.

He is on a short course of Rymadil

Will be ringing the insurance company tomorrow to warn them.

On a good note he wasn't sick. Loads of drool and he didn't have his Cerenia this evening.

Oh Lynn I am so sorry to be reading this, but I am sure Dillon will be fine. Do you know which method they will be using?

So sorry to read this Lynn, but at least it's fixable and not a long term problem!

Thank you. Problem is he doesn't realise he has a problem and needs to slow down.

My Mothers rott pup hurt (sprained) a ligament in its front leg which caused it to limp. She went to the vet and they prescribed Seraquin, which is a joint supplement for dogs/cats, it contains Turmeric extract which can help repair damaged ligaments. An 8 week course of Seraquin seemed to do the trick, as the pup limped no more.
