Hi,
If anyone has been reading the elbow dysplasia thread you will know that my 4 year old yellow has been diagnosed with ed. He has been prescribed 100mg tramadol when limping. He won't limp in front of other dogs and minimizes the limp outside so I have to go by how he is with me. The problem is I swear it's like giving him skittles. Does anyone else have any experience with this drug? I know the vet has to be careful what she gives him b/c of his colitis-like condition but I hate to see him limping heavily and favouring a leg. Perhaps on Mon I'll phone and let them know that I don't think it's working when I give it to him. Maybe he should be getting one every morning?
