Really good thread and many thanks to everyone shared their knowledge.

It's good to see folks work together and put aside their differences… As was said, the bottom line is that we are all on the same side.

Some very useful info here and I will have to read it again a few times to make sure I have a better understanding.

A comment about Rimadyl, it can have some bad side effects and can do damage to the liver. Some dogs cannot tolerate it at all.

A quick question… from one of Frosty's posts --

How would TFX's info on Organic Germanium (Ge 132) fit in with all this? From what I understand, GE 32 increases the oxygen in the blood and promotes healing.

Seems like the Ge 132 would be worth administering to promote healing once the dog is stable.
