| Toto so ill....his knees locked! Hi! I've been doing okay and hoping to find time to get back online. Right now, my heart is breaking, the dog I adopted from the pound as a senior about 17 months ago is hurting. He's already both blind and deaf, and his knees are now going. I had him at the vet yesterday for laser treatments, but last night he was uplonger whimpering than previously. They put him on an opiate, for pain, and I was hoping it would make him sleep, but no luck! Last night he woke up at midnight, as he's been doing for the last several weeks and he does not go back to sleep! It's wearing me out! If anyone has any ideas, or has been through the same thing, please let me know! Callie and Toto |

Where did you have the laser treatments done? Chiropractor? Do you know what kind of laser? The reason I ask is because Buster will need surgery in the near future but I am wondering if the TerraQuant and MR4 Lasers that the chiropractors use might help the pain.

| My vet uses a canine laser. You'll have to call around to see who in your area has them. I'm in Virginia. Callie and Toto |
