<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>We have a very good ortho surgeon working out of
Calgary North Vet hospital</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>and he looked at Miss Becky's legs cuz she was limping and one
vet thought</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>she might have a cruciate. He told me she didn't that
bassets have the same</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>problem the midgets have due to their short leg build.
He was honest and said no surgery and that her</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>back would probably fuse near tail and not be so painful.
Today she is</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>almost 15 wobbles a bit but her legs are strong cuz of
walks. I think vet</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>name was Dr Stone and he is excellent.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>I use magnets, tape, people wrists supports - she even has an
avon necklace</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>with magnets and a titanium (so do I) sent by a dear friend to
both of us.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> She's on a geriartic pill from this
friend. trammadol and pred. both .05 and still bouncing</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>around. She also has to climb stairs now but uses the ramp in
the kitchen</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>too.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Hope this helps</FONT></DIV>
