[Dailydrool] back issues

[RGeyer5165 at aol.com]

a number of years ago,, while on an extended vacation, Happy, atb, went 
down in the back, was obviously in pain and couldn't stand up even with 
help...being in an unknown environment with no one to ask for help, we really 
lucked out and chose a vet from the yellow pages...he and his staff were 
wonderful!...they treated Happy with prednisone, antinflamatories and water 
exercises...Happy stayed at the vets for three weeks with these treatments, and we 
were allowed unlimited visiting...after three weeks we were allowed to bring 
him home for the afternoon but back to the vets at night for further water 
exercises....after 6 weeks he was weaned from the pred and was 90% 
recovered...he lived another 8 years, till 14, with limited restrictions and no 
further back issues...Rene'e
