Re: Cat Tail Pull Injury & Urination

BTW, I recently saw on a human wheelchair page that they're using Botox injections for SCI humans with spastic bladders with good results. Sounds great to me!!

Maybe they gave him a narcotic? You wouldn't think Rimadyl would zonk him, but maybe so...

Re: Pip diagnosis - Central cord syndrome

Oops, missed this one. Sorry! :oops: Agree that the remaining hardware is probably easier to break now; I wonder how that could happen?!! Baby had to be held waking up from her spay, so you're probably right that Pip probably should be, too. Will he only be there for the day? That's typical for dent...

Re: Bogart, 3-legged pitbull does agility on America's Got Talent

Re: Animax Ointment for female diaper dog

And they don't need to be. You can buy surgical gloves at certain places, probably pharmacies, vets, and special orders, but I'd think they'd be overmuch here. Maybe for inserting urinary catheters or something...
