sligth bumps on spine, still very needy but is feeing better. Fever goes up with exciability, Stays low ith rest. Any change in routine, moving ot, lher dogs, hubby comes home, sets up a 10 min barking session with no real pointa

However these steps have saved our dogs and others as well.

We have the 1st case that was tested for WV within 2 days of symptoms.

T Day 1 Doyslitne for 3 weeks

Day 2 80 mgs of Preds 4 days , and the dog grew strongersreatmetnt of sterids predendize 80mgs 36 hours after

our educated guess .IS why our dog is doing very well on day 39,

a older do wth seroids for severe acute arthisweANd we treated wth Steroids within 36 hours .

Thus the postive end result unlike other cases we suspect our dog will not have bliness onwt

However we will list what has worked for us in DOGS.
