Doing the Right Thing

We are trying the last available treatment for our doggie. She has herniated discs, and spinal surgery can’t fix all three, so an aggressive steroid treatment is our last best hope.

Overall, she’s incredibly healthy for a 13-year-old 100-lb big dog, but the spinal injury is causing her legs to splay and fail (imagine Bambi). She’s strong, and her legs work, but she wobbles and swivels and slips and falls.

And yet, she has an incredible attitude about the whole thing and is the love of our life, so we are figuring it out as we go.
