Our 10 yr old Boston Terrier was diagnosed with Cushing's last summer. She has been on a 90mg dose of Vetoryl for most of that time (they started her on 30 mg and increased the dose until she was in therapeutic range). The poor baby is not doing well these days. She has lost almost all of her muscle tone and does not like to leave the house any more. My husband took her to PetSmart yesterday and she fell several times while walking around the store. Her abdomen is very distended. Even though she has lost several pounds and her shoulders and back are very bony, her tummy looks like she is pregnant. Is there anything else we could be doing for her? The doctor says surgery would be too risky and would put her under unnecessary stress. She is our vet's first Cushing's case and nobody in our circle has ever experienced it either. I welcome any and all advice.
