how is she hun... was it misty who you had health concerns with???, i remember you were doing some investigative work about her background

tiz Misty hun

Not much further with anything really vet thinks it's the onset of epilepsy says it could stay like this or progress to full fits.

Breeder says it is epilepsy but that she is only having petite mals


We limit her exercise to an hour every other day, sometimes she is great through it, sometimes her eyes goes so red I need to put her on the lead and slowly walk her home she seems to be developing a pattern and I am slowly noticing the signs. She seems famished when she is not good, and is very lathargic and seeks my company and pushes in really close to me.

But when she is good she is her normal energetic self

We are hoping things do not progress and this is the life we have with her

aww hun.... i feel for you all.... :love: :love: i remember my friends going through it all with their DDB....it was awful... :love: :love:

i keep my fingers crossed it stays as it is and gets no worse :love:

ive been meaning to post and ask for ages but kept forgetting

Aww,sending big To you and Misty hun.

Thanks both, we love her and we will get through it together


How is your friends DDB now Shell

sorry to have to tell you hun, they had to have him PTS.... he was having more fits in a day than he wasnt if you kwim.... he was suffering terribly, and no amount of medication was making it better.... he was a rescue and only very young, it broke my friends heart.... she still has her other DDB noby, but she says shes never having another dog when noby passes away.... :love:

so sad hun

Is this your friend who was on GSD4U?

That's exactly what happened to Misty's brother, but his was very quick from the onset of the fist fir about 10 days till he wouldn't come out of them, we are just hoping it won't come to that.

yes hun, thats the friend ..... it was very quick for her dog too...a couple of months... i could be on the phone to her and she would suddenl disapear and it would be because he would be having a fit and she would have to crate her other dog quickly or she would try to attack him whilst he was fitting....

have been told that could happen, luckily so far (and fingers crossed) when Misty has a funny turn the others give her space but who knows what the future holds for my girl, she may live a long and healthy life other than this dark side that hangs over her

fingers crossed she does lead a long and healthy enough life hun :love: ... and may you tackle anything that is thrown at you :love: :love:

I will keep you updated

cheers hun...please do...i will keep everything crossed for misty :love:
