"Checking in" is a topic that we start on the first of each month. We suspect that we have a good number of members who read the messages regularly but who don't post very often. Maybe that's because their dogs are doing well, or they don't have a Cushing's dog anymore, or they haven't got any questions to ask, or maybe they don't feel very comfortable about posting answers to other members' questions. It's perfectly understandable and acceptable for folks to only post once in a while, but when we don't hear from people, many of us find ourselves wondering what those folks have been up to recently and how their dogs are doing.

It's always preferable to post updates about your Cushing's dog in your own thread/topic (especially if you want feedback/replies from other members) but you can also post a quick reply here if you just want to say hi and let everyone know how you are doing in general.

We'd love to hear from you! :)

Hi all,

Happy New Year to all. I still check the site every day, can't seem to keep away! It was a big part of my life and keeps me close to Spicey who is missed so much. Brin is doing ok, he has developed lots of allergies in the last few months which are being controlled by a low dose of pred. I know its not ideal but at 15 the vet didn't want to start an immunotherapy program. Spicey had an immunotherapy injection every month for 12/13 years. Apart from that Brin is quite healthy and playful and still thinks he can run all day and wonders why he lags behind some of the younger dogs at the park. Hope 2012 brings all you are wishing for.

Love,
Linda and Brin
