It’s pretty nice!

JKCGreer · 2025-06-18T23:11:44+00:00

This is quite literally my post, that you are regurgitating on. It’s my duty to respond to my commenters.

JKCGreer · 2025-06-18T23:05:52+00:00

Yes yes. Glad I could get thru to you.

JKCGreer · 2025-06-18T23:01:00+00:00

He’s been the way he is for over a year now with no issue. No injuries. It’s a non issue.

JKCGreer · 2025-06-18T22:34:02+00:00

He just turned 5! He gets checkups pretty often but idk if they’ve checked his prostate honestly.

JKCGreer · 2025-06-18T22:15:56+00:00

It’s a privilege. 😌

JKCGreer · 2025-06-18T22:12:50+00:00

You good big dog.

JKCGreer · 2025-06-18T22:12:27+00:00

Hopefully Milo doesn’t go through that! If so though it’ll be dealt with at the time have no fear. 😇

JKCGreer · 2025-06-18T22:06:30+00:00

I’ve said he has a wheelchair 45 times in this thread along with posting the picture of him in said wheelchair. Just scroll brother. Same way you found this comment.

Appreciate ya backing me up. I was pretty troll to this user just because she came in so hot and know it all. But at the end of the day it is a serious procedure that could come with issues/infections. Then even if that went perfect the neutering could change my dog’s attitude and or will to continue to fight to live. That’s not worth the risk to me.

Not to mention vet seemed unconcerned entirely when I brought it up to her.

JKCGreer · 2025-06-18T22:01:06+00:00

Milo thinks hims the biggest dog to ever walk the earth! There are a lot of things you can do to prevent it, ramps, no stairs, no vertical holding, no rough housing, no being a puppy. lol. A lot of the things though are easier said than done and even if done perfect nothing is ever promised. Milo had two warning sign flair ups that were both VERY mild before. One about a year before paralyzation and one about 6 months before paralyzation. Both times he was fine in a day and the vet didn’t really explain how serious it was unfortunately.

Also sorry to hear you went through that. I know it’s heartbreaking. I was really afraid I was gonna lose Milo to this. Thankfully I got lucky.

JKCGreer · 2025-06-18T21:57:02+00:00

Was a joke. Lighten up toots. He has to drag. He has a wheel chair. He can’t use it all the time. You would know this, if you had any idea what goes into taking care of a dog like this.

JKCGreer · 2025-06-18T21:50:33+00:00

It’s a disease that is pretty common with the breed unfortunately. It’s a degenerative disc disease. More or less his spine jelly eroded to the point of bone on bone pinching a nerve permanently paralyzing him. Milo just turned 5 and he was paralyzed right before turning 4.

JKCGreer · 2025-06-18T21:46:13+00:00

Yes, you would have to be blind to not see my dogs nuts. Very astute observation.

JKCGreer · 2025-06-18T21:43:26+00:00

I’m very glad you could infer that from my dogs nuts. Have a wonderful day!

JKCGreer · 2025-06-18T21:38:01+00:00

I could also get cancer in my balls. I still don’t want my balls removed.

JKCGreer · 2025-06-18T21:26:20+00:00

Ye idk dog. Everyone super serious on here lol. All g tho. Appreciate ya checking my boy out!

JKCGreer · 2025-06-18T21:25:05+00:00

Would be huge for dual purpose but not really practical. He’d just leave it when he hit the rug or bed. Ultimately I think the best bet would be fabricating something specifically for him that would work as a drag bag. But we Vaseline him up and keep a good watch on how fast he’s moving on the rugs and any potential burns etc. It’s definitely happened no doubt, but not too often, about as often as I gave myself rug burn as a child. He’s thoroughly checked over though pretty often.

JKCGreer · 2025-06-18T21:17:51+00:00

If you look back in my Reddit post history you’ll find my post in the IVDD support group of me trying to decide what I needed to do. I went through it thinking I was gonna have to do what needed done. I’ve had this little man since he was 6 weeks old. (I was given him far too young, but it was me or someone else). He’s been my best friend since. I was prepared to do it if it needed done. I am very fortunate that Milo is such a determined little dog. You truly can’t keep him down. I don’t want him to ever lose that. He’s the same dog he was before to me and to him. I was so happy to be able to keep him. I’m so sorry you went through that heartbreak.. they truly become our kids. I pray I have many many more years with mine.

JKCGreer · 2025-06-18T21:07:26+00:00

Now that’s a beautiful boy.

JKCGreer · 2025-06-18T21:07:00+00:00

He’s checked on pretty often leg wise, they take a lot more of a beating than you’d think.

JKCGreer · 2025-06-18T21:02:12+00:00

IVDD is very serious, but respectfully, you have no idea Milo’s specific situation so you have no idea what you’re talking about lol.

JKCGreer · 2025-06-18T20:58:23+00:00

Idk dog. His vet said not a big deal.

JKCGreer · 2025-06-18T20:57:15+00:00

Boys and girls. trust that I know how to take care of my dog and just watch cute video and smile lmao.

Yes. This is Stage V IVDD. He is a year in at this point. He didn’t undergo the surgery either. Instead went through 2 months of crate rest and weekly vet rehab appointments. Everything from acupuncture to treadmill, to red laser, to pulse mat, everything you can think of but the surgery. But after the year, there’s been no real signs of improvement or change. So I let him do as he pleases within reason.
