<span style="font-size: 16px;">I think I'm just processing I feel bad for the
pet homes I have been through this DM before one female I didn't know what it
was I thought it was a nerve injury from Schutzhund, in hindsight I think it
was DM my KC same thing no diagnosis other than Spondylosis but I think that's
what it was.</span>
<span style="font-size: 16px;">

I had a dog, a great one, who was the number one stud dog in the country. I
never knew his sire had some problems with his rear end. Then my dog's son was
the number one producer in the country the next year.
When the litter was born, they all had parvo. The pick male died, but this
one, so special, had a full transfusion, and lived. His coat was covered with
white hair, and we nicknamed him Speckles. Gail Hardcastle told us the white
would go away, and it did.
I handled him for each point and to his championship.
Then one day we noticed he didn't move like he used to. We went through
everything to find out what was going on. The vet, after a lot of x-rays and
vet bills, we found two bad discs. But, instead we decided it was DM.
He also developed a growth on his elbow. After the vet told us it was cancer,
we got a second opinion, the same thing. They said to take off his leg. The
third time they diagnosed Valley Fever. So, he was on medication. It worked
and he kept his legs.
Every day we would wrap a towel under his rear and walk him for a mile. Tedi
did it mostly, and then she started to have hip problems, maybe from lifting
the dog, maybe not. Tedi had two hips replaced, and we continued to walk the
dog. I would take him with the towel and walk, and walk and walk. That went on
for a year or so. Every day we got that quality time with him.
The day came when he could not walk even with our help. I had to go to work,
so I met Tedi at the vet, and I sat on the floor in my suit and tie, with his
head in my lap, as he took his last breath. A piece of my heart went with him.
Champion Asgard's Big Ben of Encore is gone. I would not have missed a minute
of my time with him. If I had known he would have DM, or Valley Fever, or
Parvo, I would have done anything to have another day, and regret nothing.
DM can be Hell, but Hell would have been not having those days.
