I honestly hope that I will see results that will make all of this worthwhile for my dog but her issue is no longer her hip. Right now the success rate of THR for dysplasic dogs is reported as being between 90-95% and my dog's THR functionality falls well within that range. The data on stem cell therapy for hip dysplasia is just too sparse to make a similar claim of success and/or to pursue that as the only option at this point. Many...

If you have access to CORONA a heavy yellow dense antiseptic cream it will work, I used it on my show horses and kept a couple cans. It is a yellow cream in a can type of container of yellow and red color. It can be bought at feed stores, tack shops and hair does come back using. I have used it on sore pads as we have limestone all over our drive that is a long one, it heals quickly on the pads of dogs even soaks into them to heal. A photo of...

I've been hearing a lot lately about stem cells here in Aust. Sounds like the way to go.

The original question had to do with a possible food allergy, whether anyone feedings Nutro Lamb & Rice has noticed that their dog has had a reaction to it, and causes of dry skin, hot spots, licking paws, etc. Out of respect to OP, please do not hijack the thread to discuss the "benefit of vinegar for arthritis."

There will be good and there will be bad online vets so be careful. So a diagnosis has been made I think though if your main vet is too busy I would be asking questions to my self and maybe it's time to change to another vet. And as after thought maybe through research there may be alternative medicines such as herbal or homepathic that may make his many good moments increase m aking the bad moments even less. Good luck Caroline

Hi, thanks for all the helpl, the vets said it is kennel cough so that's a releif as i thought it was more serious.

Our dog has been diagnosed with this disease, and there seems to be no question about it. There are two vets at the clinic, and after a couple different visits within a couple months, both determined he has bronchiectasis. I'd like to change vets, because the one we usually see just is too busy. I appreciated the visit with the new vet there - she took plenty of time and also diagnosed the same condition. He has more good moments than the...

My yellow mix is 12 1/2 years old. My vet thinks she has bone cancer in her hind leg. She is now on pain meds (Rymadil). I want her last days to be of good quality. How long should she live without suffering ? I do not want to go to extreme treatments like amputation or chemo. I welcome all information that is realistic and reasonable.
