I presently have two of my bassets on soloxine for their thyroid function  
and I have had no side effects.

?? Well, after so many attempts at  losing weight and failing; we now have 
a diagnosis of "possible slow thyroid"  for our very Lazy but loveable Rosie.

??? Her Thyroid levels came back  on the "very low side of normal" and the 
Vet wants to try a 2 month test of  "Soloxine".

I did some research and it can have bad side effects.  

I wonder, my wonderful Droolers:? does anyone have experience with  this 
med or Slow Thyroid in their Basset?

Vet first wanted to try a  "Supplement" by Standard Process called "Canine 
Thyroid Support" but I think  we are beyond a Supplement.

Please help with this  decision...

Carol & Rosie in  Florida
