    Re: Cushing's meds

    I'm so sorry to hear of Bella's passing. I don't judge you either. How can I - you have gone above and beyond in love and care. Be good to yourself - Cushings is a bitter enemy.

    Best to you, Raina

    Re: Newbee with a lot of Questions

    Hi just checking in again - it's been awhile since I posted. Bobo is not doing so well right now. He's started drinking tons of water again. His vet had increased his Vetoryl to 90 mg a day. That...

  7. Re: Questions about Cushings symptoms and diagnosis

    Hi Laurie - it is one of the most heart-wrenching decisions you might ever face. I'm not really one to ask about this - I am a try-it-till-it-works, don't-care-how-much-it -costs type doggie parent....

    Re: Newbee with a lot of Questions

    Hi Stacey - thanks so much for the information - I'm supposed to hear from Bobo's vet today about the amantadine and will ask him about the galliprant. Do you have any idea how much the galliprant...
  9. Re: Questions about Cushings symptoms and diagnosis

    Hi, I'm so sorry you and your "big boy" are having a hard time. Living with my boy is the same - one day he seems better and acting like his old stubborn self, and then by the afternoon, he has the...

    Re: Newbee with a lot of Questions

    I'll ask Bobo's vet about gabapentin. It's really sad we can't count on a dog food to remain safe. I'll be on the lookout for diamond products. Thanks for the info. :)

    Re: Newbee with a lot of Questions

    Hi Lori, Well, I found out the hard way for Bobo that it was the dog food that was causing all the stomach upset. Had to switch him from Solid Gold Green Cow Tripe to Nature's Variety Instinct 95%...

    Re: Newbee with a lot of Questions

    Hi, it's been awhile since I posted. Bobo is going to a pain specialist who did i.v. lidocaine to determine that Bobo had neuropathic pain. The lidocaine worked, so the vet prescribed vet lidocaine...

    Erin, it's so hard to let them go - especially if we see the character that we love so much still there. Just to add to what the others have said, you did right by your baby. I think we "know"...

    Re: Newbee with a lot of Questions

    Hi Judy, checked with petcarerx and the adequan injectable is $112 (2 vials) for members. No problem with me doing injections at home. I'll definitely keep this as an option after I have run out of...

    Re: Newbee with a lot of Questions

    Hi, I'm thinking no more movoflex - going with the flexpet for awhile. I was wrong about the price for Movoflex - the vet charged $54. I'll definitely check the price for denamarin on amazon....

    Hi Judy, I'm just shooting in the dark - chasing the arthritis "miracle" snake oil at this point. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't adequan really expensive? Of course, if you add all the...
