My girl pug (confirmed Cushings & confirmed calcinosis cutis) / Tobey has passed

Yup, he knows I'm an Admin here. Other members here have reported amazingly quick responses, though, too. I'm assuming they may identify themselves as K9C members, but I don't know for certain about that.

Hi -- just wanted to pipe in that I have e-mailed Dr. Bruyette as a "regular member" and received very quick responses from him. I did advise him that I was a member of the forum and was aware that he had provided assistance to other members.

Shoot, email already sent. I did not identify myself as a member here. But, I provided a very detailed account of Tobey's history. Hopefully he will see my dedication to her care and take the time to provide a meaningful response. I would certainly be willing to pay for his time if he wants to consult with my gp vet.

We shall see.

Renee, I don't think you need to worry. I honestly don't think it will make any difference whether or not you identified yourself with K9C. I think Dr. B pretty much lives and breathes canine Cushing's, and I'm guessing he treats everybody with the same interest and enthusiasm, regardless of who they are.

I'm betting that if he's available now, you'll be hearing from him soon.

Renee,
I had contacted Dr. B with questions about Scoop.
That was 3 years ago. He was very responsive to my emails.
He seems like such a wonderful person and doctor caring about all our fur babies.
He was very easy to talk to.

Dr. B. Helped me out with Buddy too. Buddy had a probable pituitary macro tumor in the mix. Buddy's neurosurgeon and GP vet, based Buddy's treatment plan on Dr. B's recommendation. It was free. Dr. B was very down to earth and happy to help in any way he could. He even emailed me a few days later to see how things were going. He always signed his emails "Dave", not some stuffy doctor title, but much more personal.


Renée, this man truly has a good heart and love for dogs. When I contacted him, he emailed me back within a half an hour. He has helped many of us out here. I agree with Marianne. I don't think it matters whether you label yourself as K9C or not.

No reply. :( I can only assume he must be very busy or my email has been spammed.

Don't give up hope, Renee! He may just be at a conference or something right now.

You could try sending it again?????

I'll wait until Monday, then re-send it.
