Good post.

My vet retired a number of years ago. He had a sign in his office that said, "Medical conditions and their treatments change faster than Medical Practitioners".

It is a hard sell sometimes to convince a vet that you may be a little more up on things than them.

Fila Brasieiros, although quite heavy, require a minimal amount of anesthesia when undergoing a procedure. My vet listened, inquired and investigated. His response was pretty much if you had not been that forceful/direct odds are I would have killed your dog.

Good post with some seriously important information. Big time information for all.,
