Dog With Limp Tail

[BarbedWire]

Thanks PK for thinking of us. The consult went okay and the vet was great, really gentle handling her and she didn't need her muzzle. He thinks she has arthritis in her hip and back and he has given us a painkiller for it. ATM she is sleeping. If it doesn't work she will have an anaesthetic and have an x-ray taken. I was afraid of disc damage and possibly an operation, but as usual I think of the worst case scenario.

It is easy to do, especially when it is with someone we love so very much. It is so lovely to hear that the vet was lovely and gentle with your dog. He sounds like a keeper. :)

Sars, my Belgian girl is seeing Dr Sandra Hassett for issues with her thoracic spine which was initially diagnosed as arthritis. Sandra is great and has really rejuvenated my old girl. I asked for a referral from my vet at Northside. PM me if you want more info. :)

Thanks Trifecta. ATM she is looking good. She got up on the chair with me this morning and snuggled in as is her habit which I love because it makes me soften up and relax too. I have seen Sandra before and she was great but it took a few weeks to get an appointment. I will keep her in mind though.
