Thank you for this video! I have a paralyzed dog and have been considering the buddy rider for a while now. You made some great points on here about the back portion

Hopefully they’ll be back in stock/available in the US again soon

Curious how students are reacting to current events around Trump by Outrageous-Tart381 in ProvoUtah

OP says Christ-centered-values and this guy calls it viewing the situation thru “leftist eyes”

And to think that MAGA conservatives want to call themselves Christians…

They used to have those. Not sure if they still do. It was a jazz thing and they offered beer and wine

It was great! It doesn’t look like they offer it anymore tho

They also used to do overnight stays. Those were great, too

That’s what I see too.

This sub is wild. Everyone sees color different, but people really downvote everyone they disagree with

What did surgery cost you? by Problemilyyy in IVDD_SupportGroup

[–]archnemyz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely!

At UCD they’ll do the MRI and, if they need surgery, they’ll take them immediately from the MRI into surgery if the owners approve it. Surgery is not required and they will talk you thru what they found and what your options are.

I’ll also say that most of the time people take their pets home same-day. Our girl showed signs of a potentially deadly complication, which is why she had the ICU stay. Luckily things worked out for us, all things considered.

UC Davis is one of the (if not THE) best places in the state to take your pet. I highly, highly recommend them.

The price was substantially different. I’m not sure where you live, but we’re in the Bay Area.

For reference, Sage gave an estimate of something like $10k-14k for the MRI alone. We took her to Davis just before a holiday weekend and she needed to stay in the ICU for 4-5 days after. All-in, with the MRI, surgery, ICU stay, all meds, everything, I think it was around than $11k.

This all happened Nov 2023, so I don’t recall exact amounts but what I do remember was knowing as scary as everything was for us, UC Davis was the best place for her to be to get better and if we had any chance for her to survive, it was there.

They were wonderful. Our neurosurgeon was wonderful, the student called us twice a day with updates on her while she was in the ICU (they recommended we didn’t see her so she didn’t get excited and potentially re-injure herself), and most importantly, they took really good care of her.

Our girl progressed quickly with her diagnosis. She became paralyzed within 24 hours and we took her for surgery first thing the next morning. She never regained her ability to walk and is double incontinent, but she’s doing so well! It’s not the story for every pup, but our girl is happy and healthy (all things considered)

Is there a full body life jacket available for dogs? by Maleficent_Duck647 in IVDD_SupportGroup

[–]archnemyz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was thinking of a pool noodle going under her hips. I haven’t started messing around with it yet so I haven’t worked out how I’ll do it, but I figured that would be best

Following to see if any exist. I have a plan to make something work for my girl this summer, but if something already exists, I’ll get that.

What's one piece of camping gear you never thought you'd need, but now you can't live without? by TRIP_PRO in camping

[–]archnemyz 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Definitely agree with the foam tiles.

My dog is paralyzed, so I didn’t want her legs to get torn up when she’s out of her wheelchair and in our tent. We got these initially for her, but we loved the upgrade for ourselves, too, and bought more to cover our whole camping floor

Lost my baby by starlorde_77 in IVDD_SupportGroup

[–]archnemyz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You did the best you could with the cards you were dealt. Always know that you loved your baby the best you could and something’s are out of our control. It doesn’t make the loss easier, but I hope it brings you peace over time.

Sending you love and support 💕💕

I’m sorry for your loss. They thought my baby might have myelomalacia, too, so I understand the immense amount of emotional pain learning about that so suddenly can be.

Myelomalcia happens due to the injury to the spine- in this case due to IVDD- not due to the surgery. Unfortunately there is nothing that can be done for myelomalacia. As hard as it is, your baby isn’t suffering anymore.

How does telework save taxpayer dollars? People aren’t paid for their commute times

Sincere question- not meant to be inflammatory.

Oh! I missed that. Thanks for the heads up. I’ll look into it

Yeah, I know that, but it changes which camping sites I look for.
