| I think he is getting better. The vet said to alternate days with the steroids thus I did not give any meds to him on Monday and Tuesday morning he was acting as if he had some pain... not any where near the amount he had but some discomfort. So... I gave him his meds yesterday and just keeping him as quite as I can. I am walking him in the evening with the "pack" but he is in a stroller (one I got for Remy-- nice and purple!!) I had to zip the netting on because he is now feeling well enough to notice his surroundings.. all I would need for him to jump out of the stroller But as Gemy said.. they need the change and this way he can still be part of the family. Dh is taking him in for a check up and evaluation. We are scheduled for the nero .. Still sleeping on the floor (air mattress) down stairs with him.. Well really all puppies.

Bailey is a shih tuz (Remy's big brother) and I guess I posted this on the wrong area. sorry. But what I have found out via the vet(s) and research (what did I do before google) is it is both. Because shih tuz have longer bodies than legs this bread tends to have this problem more than some other breeds. dachshunds are the primary breed to have this problem. BUT the vet said it could happen in most any breed just not as often. In my research I read about Shepherds who have this problem and others. Now... what can you do to prevent as much as possible? Use a harness, limit jumping, supplements to diet and luck I guess. I feel very very guilty... I have NEVER limited Bailey's jumping (he is so big and healthy it never crossed my mind) and I used a collar. I now use the chokefree shoulder harness (in fact i love them so much I am a now a reseller) and added supplements AND have been sleeping on the floor (air mattress) until the vet gives a clean bill of health ..and I ordered a ramp. I have steps that are great but Bailey will not use them As I told my DH... we will do what we can for Bailey and do what we can so this does not happen to Sammy and Remy As to the Holistic Vet... I know it will not take the place if surgery is required.. but can speed the healing and comfort of Bailey. imo Now.... I would like to add... I am SOOOOO new to this.. Gemy, Lady Jane, 107Barney and a few others have lived it and know so much more!!
