Re: Surgical Treatment Option
Hi Allison,
Not to burst your bubble but Dr. David Bruyette performed one of, or maybe the, first hypophysectomies on one of our own babies several years ago. The dog's name was Lucy and she did well for a while after the surgery. She and her mom are no longer on the forum at her mom's request, but we will never forget Lucy Goo and her role in this pioneering surgery. Dr. Tina Owen has been working on this and I believe collaborates with Dr. Bruyette.
Here is some more info on this surgery for you and your followers -
