please may i rant?

Hi Suze, I've just been reading through your thread for the first time and really feel for you - and your lovely Millie. One of my dogs has suffered repeated bouts of colitis - mild at first but which got worse over the last year and although steroids worked I didn't want him on steroids permanently (he's now 9). He's now on a barf (bones and raw food) diet and it seems to have solved the problem, he's eating well, has enough energy for 6 dogs and he's back up to his normal weight and both he and his brother are pictures of health. So what I'm saying really is, don't give up hope of finding a solution for Millie and acupuncture has got to be worth a try. :)

Good luck to both of you. :hug:

Millie's has been out again this morning, 30 min lead walk and then 10 minus just mooching on the field with some bounces as she saw her friends :lol:

then i took her out again before for 10/15 mins - her back leg you can see is feeling it, however shes not going any worse than she has so i hope thats a good thing :)

Shes now flat out on the floor asleep :lol: If my dog ended up having a short life - id make damn sure it was a happy one :)
