Re: Advice for a newly diagnosed pooch in the UK
I'm so glad that Leslie said that because that is exactly what I was thinking. Lou is your dog, you are in charge of his healthcare, and you pay the vet, who should know that stopping the medication won't hurt him, but continuing it might. I have stopped Gable's meds a few times during the past almost two years when he was not feeling well, and he is still with us. I would rather let his cortisol run high than deal with it being too low, which it has done.
The vets don't always know as much as we think they do. I found that out my first time around with my sweet Lena.
