One of my dog's best friends is Molly, she's a Weimer. She's extremely high energy. She has two speeds, freak-out and sleep. A couple of months ago she came up limping, but with forced rest it seemed better. It's hard...very hard to get this girl "at rest." And, yes, she runs circles around my Mastiff, but she loses in tug of war contests.
So, here we are....needing help. Her human Dad doesn't like what he is hearing from Vets, like the likelihood that she'll blow out the other side if this side is operated on. (This happened with my daughter's Rottie.) Her need for speed and her inability to be at rest, make her a prime candidate for re-injury.
My friend needs another modality...another way of resolving the issue. Somewhere here I read about a different protocol that worked as well as surgery. Would anyone familiar with this process please advise us. Molly is a sweet dog...crazy wild, but sweet. Our friend would die if he lost her. She is his heart dog.
