I just read through this whole thread. Let me start by saying, my little Cammie (who wasCairn) had cu shings disease. They caught it with a blood test and she had lost her vision, however she was put on meds and seemed to do just fine. She was diagnosed with it when she was 3 years old and passed away at 10. So that was 7 years with it, and the vet believes that if they had caught it sooner, then she would have lived even longer.

I'm not a vet, but I know Cushing's can be treatable and some dogs can live with it. Although my darling Cammie was blind, she was adorable and loving. Always happy to "see" me walk through the door and was my best friend until the day I knew would come and I had to make the hardest decision of my life.

Prayers for your baby, know that there is hope. Hugs and licks from Gizmo.
Keep us updated!
