Yes, calcium is needed, but generally anyway for a growing pup -- However, 
all of the
research on this mess has come up with the biggest culprit as selinium 
deficiency.  I do
know Scootie Sherlock had a good recipe to handle it.  The age, size and 
situation is
important for the time needed to correct the situation.  Cutting back on 
protein also does
help.   It's, in my humble opinion ----    something in certain lines --- no 
no  I do NOT
want t start a pie throwing contest that seems to crop up on this list once 
in a while, but
I'm only talking of experience etc.  Hope all gets Ok with this pup Norma no 
L & 2 kids

Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] down pasterns



 Long ago I was told to put them on calcium and they would come right up . I 
had a litter back in the 70's that was down in their pasterns I put them on 
Calcium and they were back to normal in a couple of days. I had it happen a 
couple more time to individual dogs and did the same, with the same results 
. ???
I have read the topic of down pasterns several times on the list and never 
seen calcium mentioned, so I wonder if I am missing something that has come 
up about it when I wasn't paying attention , If so I would like to be 
brought up to date on it.
Thanks in advance,
