I want to see bloodlines and testing. They can't predict IVDD but there are many other genetic conditions that can be tested for.

I am so sorry for your sick little guy. I know a lot of people here have been through the same things so you've come to the right place for support!
Thank you! Awwww your poor little baby! That is so sad she is paralyzed I will do the same more research and no impulsivity although I love my little guy no matter what and I will do anything to get him healthy!
