Hi. My last yorkie was diagnosed with cushing's disease. She had 3 seizures in a row so I took her into the vet. They thought it was Addison's disease but it turned out to be cushings which they said was worse for my girl because she also had CHF and could not be put on medications. They determined it be a blood test. So I went the natural route and gave her supplements. They were called cushix drops and I also gave her a supplement for liver support. My vet of course approved what I was trying. She never had another seizure nor lost her hair. She did however pass 2 months ago from CHF but her cushings was fine. Good luck with your baby!
