I wish you both the best ... apparently this is something I need to look up and study. Please keep us advised regarding diagnosis, prognosis and treatment. |
The norm is for them to be diagnosed with LS by about a year old (not five months). Atleast one dog was diagnosed at age 8. Some have MVD and don't show symptoms til later in life.
