Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: limber tail
Really have no idea what limber tail is, but if it's caused by
bathing in cold water in cold temperatures, most of the dogs we
see in the show ring would have limber tails. LOL I would surely
seek another vet.

5 yr old male to the vet and this is the diagnosis. Vet prescribed rimadyl 
for 
treatment said it should go away in week or 2. Possibly caused by bathing in 
cold water when weather temperature not warm enough. Thanks Mary L Ward,

  MARY; 

I HAVE  READ ABOUT IT IN SOME OF THE SPORTING BREEDS.

  .BUT NEVER IN A GS.. I WOULD HOPE IT ISN'T THE BEGINNING OF DM OR SOME  
OTHER OF THE  SPINAL NEUROLOGICAL PROBLEMS..
 I WOULD SUGGEST SHE TAKE THE DOG TO A  NEUROLOGIST VET.. JUST TO BE ON THE   
SAFE SIDE.. BARB WILLIAMS
