I am devasted. All the research I have done looks so expensive. I live in South Carolina. Does anyone have any help?? My vet has placed her on Hills LD canned food, Bactrim and Denamarin. Thanks and and advice will be greatly appreciated. Before yesterday no problems. She has a great appetite, energy, no head rubbing, no diarrhea, normal bowel movements, she has gained 5 ounces in 2 weeks. Yesterday her weight was 1.9 pounds. She did receive her second round of shots 2 weeks ago.  |
Usually anything under post 100 is MVD which can be treated with the right diet and medications. My Sasha had pre 78 and post 268 so her chances of having a LS were pretty high and she does have one. Im going to UT next month for surgery.
