No, he has not had any other medical problems. He has been just fine all along. He has a slight head shake/bob that my dog trainer noted during puppy class and she wondered if it was a neurological issue. My vet did not think it was anything of concern. Teddy was neutered and was just fine.

His blood work was all completely normal. His ALT was under 10 U/L. I know that this is not determinitive of LS but it is a factor. My MVD dog routinely has ALT readings near 200 U/L. She also has symptoms that Teddy does not have. I am familiar with LS because of my MVD dog but I just do not think that is the road I should take now. I am not adverse to running BA but my time and money may be better well spent (at least initially) with a neurologist or other specialist.

I am waiting for my vet to call me and will go from there. Thank you all for your thoughts and suggestions. I am taking them all into consideration.
