I have purchased from her before and she has always just been a text away and ready to help with any info she can. Told me she knows of several that have used Adequan with good results, but I always like to know other things that can be used also, He is only a little bit over 3 1/4 lb and is 15 months old. She gave me a location that she knows some other show breeders have used if the scope is needed and what to look for and questions to ask.
I don't think there is any scientific evidence of this (Adequan). Purely anecdotal at this point. I honestly don't believe there is anything good to prevent the collapse. The only thing that can really is surgery and that does not have a high enough success rate for me to ever do it..

At this point that is all they have with Antinol...anecdotal reports. The problem with that is that these dogs' symptoms often wax and wane and people can be lulled into believing something worked because the symptoms may have decreased following dosing with the meds. I am pleased that they are considering a study with the Antinol.
