    :lol: poor guy he looks so pitiful! We used to call them 'party hats' so owners would just laugh. Waldo hated his so I bought him one of these: http://www.bitenot.com/ he tolerated it better.

    Get better Zeke!

    Hi everyone....Petey had a a really rough 24 hours yesterday. We aren't sure what happened to him, and if he is going to be ok or not. He had some problems with his hind quarters falling over when trying to walk and his behavior looked like he was having mini seizures, he stood up for 7 hours straight staring at the floor, terrified to walk. It was as if he had severe vertigo. I took him to the vet and he was much more with it, but the behavior continued. The vet had never seen anything like it before, and we are concerned that it could be Wobblers Syndrome. Just what Petey needs....another genetic disease with no cure. :roll: Poor guy. Best dog in the world with the worst health. He is 100% today...he had a shot of steroids yesterday. That will wear off in another day or so...and we will then see if the problem continues. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers...he is my heart dog. Today is 1 year ago that he was diagnosed with DCM and up until yesterday...he was having a great life. Monty is 9 months old today and a total....PITA!!!!! :lol: What did I expect??

    He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion.

    PJaddictied..
    So sorry to hear of this.. totally sounds like wobbler's to me.. but I'm not certified or anything. My Aunt has a heart for these dogs as well. She has two, one of whom is suffering from wobbler's. My prayers are with you and Petey.. Hope all turns out well.. Love the dobbies. as for Monty, he may be your carry over dog, hope that doesn't happen.But my prayers are with you all, four legged and two legged alike.

    THANKS EVERYONE! This is the place for us dog lovers to come to find the love and support when we most need it. Few people *get* us. If they have never loved a dog deeply....they think...oh it's just a dog....get over it. Petey continues to do good. No sign of the problem. I think that it's time to get a harness, no more collars, and no more tug of war. Have to protect his neck. My husband said to me last night...this pulled him back into reality....Petey isn't going to live a long life and we all need to know that. Stay in reality, it's easy to forget what is happening to his heart because he has had such a great year since his diagnosis. My family will all be devastated when his time comes. ONE DAY AT A TIME....LIVE IN THE MOMENT.
