You can call your vet and ask for a referral to a specialist. Since he has done nothing to help your little girl after 5 years I would not take her to him to do any other work up on her. Just because it is "common" in small dogs does not mean it cannot be treated. To me it is heartless for that vet not to give you options about what you could do to relieve her suffering. Many times there are university veterinary hospitals that are very good at dealing with this problem. I don't know if you have one in Texas but you could check it out. I hope you find a specialist soon that can help her. |
