Jazzy had been limping some on and off for a couple of weeks, so off to the vet we went today. The vet manipulated her joints, and watched me walk and run her to check her gait. Nothing really. So we decided on x-rays and when she came back in the room she said she didn't know why we weren't seeing more of a pain reaction from Jazzy. Jazzy has hip dysplasia and spinal stenosis of 2 discs. Came home with Deramaxx as needed for pain and instructions to give Jazz fish oil and glucosamine, and lose more weight. My poor girl...she is such a stoic dog, I just had no idea. I feel like a bad mom.

 

[RangerMom]

Aww, poor Jazzy. Don't feel too bad though, you're not a bad dog mom. Dogs can be very stoic. I hope the Deramaxx helps.

 

[zoezoe]

no you are not bad. dogs, especially labs, hide their pain very well. hope the deramaxx helps and she can lose a few lbs.

 

[CJs Mom]

Oh Jazzy I hope your meds help and that you're feeling better soon.

 

[patm]

Hope she feels better soon.

 

[justine]

Aw poor Jazzy. Please give her some kisses from Abbey, Toby and I

Abbey is the opposite - she's a huge baby and if you so much as ALMOST step on her paw/tail, she screams.

Poor Miss Jazz! I hope the meds help and she is feeling better soon!

 

[MNLab]

[Cheerio]

Hope she feels better soon.

 

[Samson]

Good thoughts for Jazzy

I'm so sorry. You're not a bad Mom, some dogs mask their pain very well, others not so much. You didn't know.

I hope the Deramaxx brings her relief.

Don't feel bad.. koda had 2 blown cruciates and didn't limp.. she had surgery and stopped limping 2 days in and never again after.. they appear to have high levels of pain tolerance.

I hope she feels better soon.. she had good luck with the deramaxx.
