Checking in for February 2016

[mytil]

"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. I'm new. My Boston terrier mix, Maggie, was officially diagnosed on 2/18/16. Started Vetoryl on Friday. SI far, she seems to be drinking a little less. No adverse side effects, yet. Keeping a close eye on her, though.

Hello. New to this site almost 3 weeks. Came here when our silver lab Athena was diagnosed with Cushings. Site has been a godsend. Athena is going into week 3 with Vetoryl and doing well so far. I just updated her thread. Very thankful for this site and the angels that run it and all the members that reached out and helped us through those tough few days of when we first got the news. It's still tough but we are doing better knowing she seems better.

Thank you to all. Prayers to everyone's pups. :)
