Where does he live? -------Original Message------- From: castlegsd@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: 02/13/05 22:11:58 To: Show List Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Vet Has No Idea What is Wrong....Help! I just got a call from an owner of one of my 3-year old puppies who is displaying symptoms but the vet does not have a diagnosis. This is a 95-pound male who is normally very, very active, and runs every day with his owner. For the past two weeks he has gotten lethargic, no energy, doesn't even chase the cat. He seems to have labored movement and does not want to go upstairs. The owner feels that something is causing pain in the front legs and that he is losing muscle. He was told to put the dog on buffered aspirin. The vet did do a complete blood test and said the dog is perfectly healthy. The dog is eating, and has no fever. Is this dog too old to have pano? I am perplexed. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what could be wrong so I can steer this concerned owner in the right direction. As always, I do appreciate your help.
