    Hi everyone!

    I am  hoping to have some input about your organization's experience dealing with cervical IVDD. What course of treatment did you go with and why? How did you manage caring for a paralyzed dog? 

    We chose a conservative route with weekly laser therapy and acupuncture for one of our fosters.  We are about 8 weeks post-episode. Pain and imflammation management are at the core of our tretament plan along with strict rest.

    Look forward to comparing notes.
