Lisa and Pic's pup Piccolo had it and she was treated with pentoxifylline.

I would not mess with it and would give what they are suggesting. It gets worse if left untreated! As for finding the cause, I would not be playing around doing that because this is a condition that will worsen while you are doing it and you may never know what caused it.

Good luck!
Ladyjane, You have such practical experience and knowledge and I always learn something from your responses! Thank you. I didnt realize vasculitis was so common Iin dogs, and your question about the vaccines makes perfect sense since we seem to have had quite a few bad vaccine reactions on this forum recently. scary...
