Talking with boog the chocolate lab I get a wag wag

I think the wag wag are I love you man as we cuddle on loveseat. boog has this immune deficiency problem where his body is under attacks on his muscles. He is nine I love him so much I watch him limping around breaks my heart.

He boog has no clue he is suffering I watched him go off. At a fast limp barking after a rabbit, I love him. And I think you have heart.

all of us here on DU love him, too. Give him an extra big hug from all of us.

Can the vet do anything to help this immune deficiency?

Cbd oil, I used for awhile for chronic pain and it helped for a long time. I think available for animals now, no thc. Worth a try maybe. Raised with dogs, we used to hide aspirin in liversausage for the arthritis one of our dogs suffered from.

so she'll have a perfect protein...raw, you don't have to worry about cholesterol. She also gets an arthritis/pain supplement. She has kidney failure, so among the medicines for that is potassium, without which muscles can't function. Her potassium supplement is RenaPlus from my vet. Human potassium is so salty, I worry about it nauseating her. I give her 1/4 tsp. daily. She also gets a human taurine, B- complex and milk whistle (liver) capsule. Actually I mix all the supplements with the yolks, add a tsp of water and use a 10-cc syringe to get it into her. My other dogs are so piggy, they'd eat the lot mixed into their food...I've done it!
