muzzy1 Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 I have a 12 year old English Staffy who has just been diagnosed with this complaint. We are currently looking at a few options but am just wondering if anyone else has had to deal with this condition. My vet has never seen it before. If anyone has any experience with this and would share it with me, I would be very grateful. Thanks muzzy1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandgrubber Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 I have a human friend with that problem. The treatment was to have blood drawn. In his case it is genetic/hereditary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In his case it is genetic/hereditary. Staffies are probably also at the size where they can be regular blood donors. If that is a 'treatment' option, you can do some animal husbandry training to condition the dog to be comfortable with having blood drawn if your staffy is fearful at present.
