during the day? My dog is now fully incontinent. I am blessed that someone is with her all day, but what do others do? Do your dogs wear diapers? How do they poop? Do they sit in the wet diapers all day? (I'm not passing judgement, I just want to plan for the future.) Mine has a UTI and pees ALOT. A...

The vet said he is now in no pain, he eats & drinks well and has been quite perky apart from the panting and coughing the last couple of days. He even pushes up to a sitting position and crys when I take my other dogs out because he wants to come bless him It's such a hard decision. I would tak...

I joined Handicapped pets 6 months ago and as you can see from my first posting, he has slowly been getting worse. I don't post often but do read the Support columns daily. If you could send a good thought to my boy I sure would appreciate it. We are continuing to do EVERYTHING we can for him to ke...

No. Hers is more of a degenerative nerve disease. Her nerves are disintegrating. It starts at the back legs and moves forward. It progresses, but the rate is unknown.

Anyone dealing with this? Dealt with this? Any good sites that you know of? Supplements and any type of rehab?

Axonal peripheral neuropathy--I've done a search here and I couldn't find much at all.

And how do you all stay so positive when all I want to do is cry????

I am bumping up this thread because I just found out this is what my baby has.

Anyone else? The progression? The treatment? The rehab? I know no one can answer the progression question, but I'd like to hear what others have found helpful.

Hi! Thanks for posting this information. I looked them up and am trying to picture how they work. Is this the product here? http://www.depend.com/products/individual/easyfit.asp Did you cut a hole for the tail, or how did you make them fit? I would like to add this info to our diaper size chart to ...
