Praying all is going well for you all!
Our dear Addy,
First, I am just so so sorry about Koko. It is hard enough when we know it's coming but to have those we trust most fail us at the most important time compounds everything. I know...
Oh Clair,
I was heart-broken to read about the TCC. :( And the third baby as well. Bless your heart. I've always said these babies know who will take the best care of them and that's why we end...
Hey Judy,
Sounds like things are progressing nicely for sweet Sadie Sue. She is one lucky girl to have you and your experience on her side. Allergies....geez not even gonna go there 'cause I...
Hi Marissa,
When you described the swelling your Bella has my mind went to Lymphedema. I have it from cancer surgery and was curious if dogs can develop it as well. They can. Here are some of...
Hi and welcome to you and your precious Bella!
If Bella were mine here is what I would do - stop the Vetoryl for now and forget about Cushing's until all her other issues are under control. Why? ...
These anniversaries never get any easier tho I hope over time you have found more reasons to smile and maybe laugh when the memories come. We are among the blessed to have known a love so deep.

I agree with you 1000% - he should not be on treatment at this time. You are doing a great job with a difficult situation so keep up the good work!

Dear Sian,
Tears were, and still are, rolling as I read your post about precious Willow. Even when we know that time is near and we have time to prepare as best we can it is so so hard to say...
I can't help with the diabetes but I do have a concern with the resumption of treatment with a normal cortisol reading...and dosing schedule.
Vetoryl is used to lower cortisol when it is elevated....
Ok...let's start with 2 things - first let's stop talking as if this is the end for you and Penny. I'll be 70 soon and have had a dog with Cushing's who lived a full life WITH the disease. ...
(I am moving relevant posts from other threads into this thread and closing the others. This way all the info on Penny is in one place.)
"For some reason out of the blue My veterinarian said you...
Hi gyrochris and welcome to you and your precious Penny!
I haven't had time to read all your posts just yet so please hang on and give me a few to catch up and I'll be back with you. I am sure...
Hi,
I was surprised to learn a few years ago that Cushing's can impact the eyes. Here are some links that offer information in the avenue:

Andrea, all that sounds great! I am so glad to hear Bonnie is doing so well off treatment and pray it continues. Thank you so much for checking in and do let us keep hearing from you and sweet...
Plain melatonin is fine for our cush pups (NOT diabetic dogs tho) but I would double check with the vet first. He's a little young for dementia to be starting but anxiety is not uncommon at all as...
Nah, we like to keep everything in one thread.
Hi DearHeart!
Glad to have you and your beautiful Lily join us! I am looking forward to learning more about the both of you as time passes. If you haven't, please start a thread in the Questions...
Hi and welcome to you and Milo!
My Bud has DI. At first we thought he had Cushing's but testing didn't support that diagnosis. He became lethargic, withdrawn, listless....just not his usual...
Just wanted to welcome you and your sweet Bean to our little family here at K9C. Lori has done an excellent job as always so I don't have anything to add at the moment other than the welcome! ...
Yeah, me too. :D:D:D From our house to yours, a quote from one of my favorite fantasy authors:
"May your coming year be
filled with magic and
dreams and good
madness. I hope you read

Juuuudy! Hi!! Welcome back! I know you are so very excited to take this journey yet once again! :D These pups seem to know who to find that will help them. And Sadie Sue sure found a wonderful...
I am so glad the Trilo has been stopped. Now he has a chance to level out a bit and start over and hopefully with better results. It is difficult when diabetes is concurrent but it can be done. I...
I hope your Christmas was joyful, Colleen, and that 2024 brings you much joy and adventure. I am so lucky to have Cardinals around all the time. Them and Dragonflies. Once a Dragonfly flew just in...
I'm glad things are going good for Lucy other than the sores coming up. At first I thought it was calcinosis cutis, a rare complication with Cushing's but the more I read I realized your description...
