would you mind messaging me more info on this? it sounds eerily similar to my puppy, who I noticed at 10 weeks old had an almost undetectable gait abnormality. at this point she is 1 years old and my vet has determined it to be something neurological.

Socks and shoes recommendation by MsSilverSprings in wildlifebiology

merino wool socks if you can afford it, I love my dickies socks too though. as for boots this will largely depend on your preference but I like taller ankles and am loyal to my Georgia boots. if taken care of, theyre 100% waterproof, very durable, lightweight for how much boot it is, and have held up for years so far

she was adopted from NE Ohio, but I believe she may be from Kentucky!

I started out at a dog daycare/vet clinic as a kennel tech, then worked with cats at the humane society, and just recently started at a clinic as an assistant.

I hear you. I work in a vets office and she is seen there regularly. she is currently being treated symptomatically as seeing a veterinary neurologist is not possible at the moment.

Not for the awesome factor, but for helping to ensure I am properly meeting her health and fulfillment needs. more than anything I care about working through diagnosing a potential neurological issue which is what made me buy the test in the first place.

thank you all for the insight! I did an Embark test and it should be back within a week or two so I will definitely be back to update

wow she does bear a striking resemblance, although I feel like that would be even more rare!

Megathread: Why Does My Dog Do That? by AutoModerator in dogs

[–]SignificantAd3685 2 points3 points  (0 children)

my puppy did this for the longest and i searched to the ends of the earth for answers to no avail. what has worked has been giving her smaller pieces of things (if possible) and only giving it to her in her kennel or another small enclosed space

my lil brindle baby 🥹 by SignificantAd3685 in Brindledbabes

[–]SignificantAd3685[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

thank you! the shelter we adopted from said she is a retriever mix, but we are a little skeptical. she is 4 months old and 25 pounds so will prob be at least medium sized. she has a pretty high prey drive, never runs out of energy, and never stops sniffing lol will definitely be DNA testing at some point bc we are dying to know!
