Re: spaghetti legs- bilateral luxoid dog

Hi Laurie Thanks, good ideas on use. If I can't get movement at hip then we won't progress anyhow, so unless we get more comfort then we might be forced into FHNE. And so in this case I feel like a bilat FHNE could be no worse as a place to start from. I am hoping to get into UWTM and see what movem...

Re: Bernese mountain dog

Thanks so much Laurie. Much appreciated. I agree if we can help with that spine and pelvis.
I'll try to locate an UWTM we can fit him in and give it a try.
cheers

Re: Non weight bearing exercises for hamstrings?

I get my leg weights from http://www.canineicer.com/order/product/index.htm
I rent them now as I am too lazy to reorder and ship them over.

Re: Cart to assist rehab in grade 5/5 hemilam, 10d post op??

I can't see any suggestion she will spinal walk - not in water and not with our cart gaiting. I just read Gallucci et al's paper (2017) in JVIM and am excited to see 59% of dogs witho...

Re: Hyperextended digits bilat HLs (and post FHO)

Thanks a bunch Rick and Laurie. Great ideas..... I will investigate nerves further. Yes weird cases because we have the most excellent inbreeding programmes and no kennel club to register your anything. I remember seeing a Westie dyed purple and clipped like a Schnauzer. New owner devastated when I ...
