Katiebob Posted September 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2008 Thank you everyone for your good wishes. Bobby is getting around (in his normal wobbly fashion) but I may look into hydrotherapy treatment for him. Unfortunately the local pool has closed and I need to work out how feasible it is to get him for regular treatment at a pool further away bearing in mind my own work commitments. Someone on another forum has also mentioned 'Bowen Treatment' which I may also investigate. As far as wheels go, I'm afraid it's just not something I could contemplate for one of my own dogs. I'm more than happy for others to use them but, for one thing I think it would be a nightmare for him here with another 11 dogs milling around - and I don't think it would be good prolonging his life that way. That's just my opinion about my own dogs - I have no issue at all with others using them Bobby is just very wobbly at the moment - not incontinent in anyway so I'm hoping that he's got months, if not a year still but I'll take it all day by day, week by week. Gemma, on the other hand, is bright as a button and if it weren't for me staring at the scan and seeing what the vet was talking about, I wouldn't have believed him I'm hopeful that either what he saw wasn't as sinister as he thought or that she's always had whatever it is and there's not a problem I'll let you know later on Wednesday. Thanks again for all your positive thoughts - I'm sure they will be helping my little ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anne Grose Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 Hi Katiebob, have you tried the homeopathic remedy Hypericum for Bobby. This is a great remedy for issues with nerves and spinal problems. I used it on my own dog when he had a disc problem. Alternatively, Mag Phos may help if there is pressure on the spinal cord, again I gave this to Barty prior to having surgery to relieve pressure on the spinal cord.
