Plus, it gets more confusing bc dogs mask things so well at times.

Don't beat yourself up, she gets such incredible care! I do know how you feel though...I've missed so many things w/ my babies, things I couldn't put my finger on - and afterward felt so bad! Btw, I can't remember if I told you via our PMs that Wylie's Cushings was misdiagnosed by his vet for over a YEAR . She kept telling me that his symptoms were nothing.
Thanks Ann! Awe poor Wylie that's terrible it took so long to diagnose! I really think because of you and other people here I was able to guide my vet in the right direction. Otherwise I wouldn't have any knowledge of Cushings. Coco still hasnt' started the meds for it but there has been such a big improvement since the UTI meds are almost done. One thing we noticed today is she is either going blind or is completely blind She has started to walk into things in the house. Gosh this is so sadI keep reminding myself she has lived such a great long life for a Boxer.
