LOL I wish I *had* some ideas to discuss--I was hoping you would! Maybe somebody else will. If you can devise a better way to sit, that would also be very helpful. Yes, I was thinking of a padded platform or something they could lie on with their paws forward as you describe. The trouble is getting ...

Just saw this, if you're still interested.

Hi Anita, I'm sorry to take so long to answer. Please don't feel bad about not being here a couple of weeks ago--actually the information in your Story of the Month spoke well in your absence. :) I was almost tempted to email you (know your address is here somewhere) but I was worried about what you...

Pavla made an excellent website about her dog Sara's recovery from FCE. ("Spinal cord infarct" is another way of saying spinal stroke or FCE.)

Hi Molly, There have been many people on this website dealing with FCE. You can learn lots about recovery and caring for your dog by searching for old messages on FCE. From where you are now, click RETURN TO INDEX, then at the top of the page click SEARCH. You can enter FCE as a search term, or you ...

Oh, Bendy, bless your little heart. Congratulations on being able to yawn again! I hope the Tooth Fairy came to your house. You deserve at least 6 shrimpies! I'd be picky about my food too, if I had that many teeth removed. My friend Betsy has almost no teeth left (the vet says she has 2, but they'r...

Hi Marty, Below I am putting a link to info on D.E.S., which is a form of estrogen. It says you can use it alone or in combination with Pro-in if you're having trouble controlling incontinence. I was surprised that you have to give the Pro-in several times a day. It is certainly easier to give D.E.S...

Hi Marty, The most I can offer is sympathy, as I have the same problem with my senior long-haired mini-dachshund Matilda. The girl at the vet clinic jokingly called it leaky old female dog syndrome. My dog's bed is a folded blanket next to the computer. I started noticing she would unfold her blanke...

there's a problem that needs to be solved for these dogs, and I am just sure it can be solved. How?--I don't know. If you look at the link you'll see pictures of dogs in carts and in one a dachshund named Daisy is lying down. She has walked onto a big floor pillow until her wheels docked with it, an...

That's so much better than the first diagnosis. What a relief! My dog's physical therapist's very own Yorkie had an FCE. She ended up doing exactly what you said--training him to walk on 3 legs at first. They got him to use all 4 later, but for a while he was just using 3. Will post with suggestions...

Did you make the cart for Raks that is featured on the homepage? I'm amazed! I remember you mentioning building carts, but I had no idea you knew how to design biomedical equipment using AutoCad. It sure looks sharp. I can just picture you all running after him when he took off! By the look on his f...

Where did you find the info about making one for $100? Do your remember what website? Chances are this question will come up again and it would be good to have the info for the next person. Glad you found your answer!
