It wasn't until after Ed had gone to the Vet with his guy, that I remembered
another leg problem - it is called, in general PANO and is actually - sp.?
PANOSTITIS
or something like that. I DO know and told Ed that usually the down
pasterns are due to a selenium deficiency. There is a special formula for
feeding for about a
month or two and very light exercising during the time. Also, I know they
will also suggest wrapping the area and put some nasty tasting thingy there
so the dog
does not chew the wraps. I just do not remember much about the pano as I do
not think I had it ever, but the down pasterns did show up in ONLY ONE DOG
in my 41 years of breeding. It can't possibly be inherited since I do not
ever knowing of it being from one generation to the next or more than just
one pup in a
litter. We are ALL DIFFERENT in what happens and the insides of these
particular ones just do not seem to be able to handle what their siblings or
parents do.
I rescued and boarded MANY and now you mention it, I do not ever know of
such leg problems in other breeds, tho there may be, in fact some stuff
worse too.
Oh, in your inquiry, I must say --- being a BITCH myself, not all bad things
come from them, a lot is from the STUD --- unless the bitch you are talking
about here
was bred to the same male 3 times, she isn't the real culprit, in my humble
opinion. I think environment and the individual's reaction to things really
should COUNT!
Yes yes yes --- Da List IS Da Best! Norma no L

Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Health questions/ this List
I don't have time for facebook or other Lists...so I have
a question for THIS List while the volume is low. <G>
Pasterns.
Ed Hill posted about a pup he had with one bad pastern.
For the first time in many many years we have a pup with ONE
pastern a tad lower than the other..similar to Ed's pup I guess.
Ed...you never said what Dietary changes the Vets at UCD
advised you to use....and why. Hope you are willing to share?
But I am wondering about this strange thing that some GSD pups
go through with pasterns. Does this happen to OTHER BREEDS?
Is this a GSD problem only because of angulated pasterns?
IS it dietary in the opinion of breeders...as UCD suggested to
Ed when the tests showed nothing else?
IS it genetic?
WHY in a litter of normal pasterns does one go down..especially
from a bitch that never produced them before in 3 other litters.
This List is usually GREAT about sharing about health issues.
