Old Dog Vestibular Syndrome
Here are a couple sights on Old Dog or Canine Vestibular syndrome. (Young dogs can get it too.) Everyone should read them as many vets do not reccognize the symptoms as this disease. I'm still searching for one other sight I had. http://ilil.essortment.com/dogearproblems_rmib.htm http://www.peoriahs.org/vestibular.html Bernerly, Mary Jeff Mary Chapdelaine SnoBear Berners N.

Re: Old Dog Vestibular Syndrome
Dear Mary, Hello! this is from one of dog-lovers in Japan. Thank you for your infomation regarding to Old Dog Vestibular Syndrome. I read your posting for Bernese Mountain Dog Mailing List and just visited those sites you kindly mentioned. Yes !..., those stories made me remember my late Taro (Akita) who also suffered of this disease. He got it at his age of 12 years 6 month. He went to the Bridge at his age of 14 years 10 month not because of this desease but because of heavy diarrhea. I think, if we have good knowlege about this desease, we can teat dog many years even after suffered. Please read my Taro's sour-aweet story at; http://living-with-dogs.com/en/aged/index.html Chapter- [9] Became impossible to stand up any more? and at; http://www.tcp-ip.or.jp/~inaba/roken.html of which the Home-Page is http://www.tcp-ip.or.jp/~inaba/ I am sorry in advance since these sites are bilingual in English/Japanese so you may find some funny characters. Please read English portion only ! --- Tadao Inaba (Nagoya, Japan) [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.tcp-ip.or.jp/~inaba/ ** Aged Dog's Directory is now of 735 friends **
