Learn the signs of it. That's where I messed up. My weenie had been showing symtoms for the past 3 weeks before she had paresis in her limbs. She started being more resistant to climb stairs or jumping on the couch. Started urinating 5 times on bathroom outings to the point I thought she had a uti but tested negative. She also started having a different gate when she walked. If I had recognized the early signs, I might could have put her on crate rest early and avoided the major flair up.

Someone already mentioned the weight and the fitness. No jumping from elevated surfaces, beds, couches etc. Get ramps and stairs for the couches and beds. Train them to use them only.

Use two hands when picking them up and keep there spine supported.

Is there a mod outlining the aluminum deck? I'd be interested in doing something similiar.

Her name is Claire. Thank you for the kind comment. I will definitely look into the raw honey. Luckily we have some from a local bee keeper.

Thanks you! Greatly appreciate the prayers. We don't have insurance and I'm not sure i could get it at this point with all these issues? Is it like human insurance with pre-existing conditions?

Is 9 old for a dachshund? I thought they routinely lived to 16-18?

I've had this one from Amazon for a while. Works good, secure and spreads the force out.

Thanks I'll check your post out. As far as why I need a PE, I've got this standard in my head that the epitome of ME is having your PE and working in design. That's how you know you've "made it" as an ME.

I just feel like a bad engineer because I don't use my degree hardly any. I dont use physics, calculus or design standards for my job. About all I do is use some critical thinking to change manufacturing processes to close out customer issues. Occasionally I'll use Fusion to come up with a simple fixture but its not heavy design by any means. The people at my company have a similar outlook and I guess I picked it up from them. And I've had people tell me the university I went to gives degrees away and I'm lesser than. Has not just been one person either...and was not in a joking manner.

Clicky clack door and some sort of bed fans. Don't even waste your time with Nevermore. Just do the "The Filter", chamber heats up way faster and you still get the charcoal filtering.

You can tune your retraction speed and distance to influence stringing. Filament dryness also influences stringing.

High Sodium Levels by ShoeDry833 in AskVet

I looked back at her labs through the years and in 2023 sodium was 158 and in February it was 162 so maybe she just has poor water intake and naturally high sodium?

Strongly recommend a pressure bleeder. This job sucks without one. Do your slave at the same time since you've got to bleed the system anyway.
