Dr Kruger Pet Supplements

Dillon had an MRI in September as he had been lame for a while with no improvement and even was worse! The MRI was shown to me by a very good Neurologist and showed he had (under contrast) a lesion/tumor around a nerve on the inside of his shoulder blade. I also saw the radiologist and surgeon at this specialty clinic and all agreed it was a nerve cancer known as Schwannoma (A schwannoma (sh-won-oma) is a tumor of the tissue that covers nerves, called the nerve sheath. These tumors develop from a type of cell called a Schwann cell, which gives them their name. Schwannomas are often not cancerous (benign). The most common type of schwannoma is a vestibular schwannoma).

A biopsy was inconclusive as it was a very difficult area to get into. The decision was made to keep him comfortable till I got back from a long planned 3 week cruise around the Panama Canal.

Moonshine Irish Water Spaniels

I've talked with you for hours and at shows. Shannon lost her first litter to two bacterial infections and was diagnosed with chronic inflammation of the uterus.

However, the second breeding took, but only resulted in 4 puppies (I'm sure those bacteria ate most of the eggs present before she was put on the antibiotics the day of her trans-cervical AI).

WOW. I have never seen such an easy whelping and fast. Only 4, but all 4 delivered in about 2 1/2 hours or less. I've whelped 5 litters of my own, and at least 7 others. All IWS. Typical weights 12 to occasional 15 ounces. Shannon was 15.75 ounces at birth.
