Hey PC world. I have a vet appointment for Arrow on Monday and am really worried. From what I'm seeing, I think he has hip dysplasia in both hips. :/
His back end isn't doing so hot at all. Well wishes would be amazing, *hugs to all*

There are definite things that can do to help them and make them comfortable with dysplasia, if that is what it turns out to be.

No matter what it is, am sending healing thoughts and good wishes y'all's way.
Hope the appointment goes well. Hang in there. (((((Arrow & KaraD))))))

Will keep you both in my thoughts. I'm willing to be a pocket rider if you want.

Thanks you guys. The vet said Arrow has a torn ligament and his hips are loose. She thinks possibly wobbler's disease. She gave me some meds to make him more comfortable until she sees us on Wednesday next week :/
She took blood and did xrays.

I feel so terrible for you and your companion. I have a little dog myself. She just started getting this jaw quiver. Did some research and it looks like bad teeth. She has been chewing tenderly, I observed after noticing the quiver.

I looked at the cost of doing something about it, and I am beside myself. This will cost upwards of $500, which I don't have.

I love my little Peanut so much it is causing me a great deal of grief. She doesn't seem to be in pain. She doesn't wince, she doesn't avoid inspection, but I know this can only get worse.

I'm sorry for stealing your thread, but your situation reminded me of mine. My apologies, if necessary.

No apologies needed, I really hope peanut gets the help she needs for her teeth. That must be super painful. The meds he got are helping him but he can't run like he wants
