Sad news about Rosie.. she has a problem.

[CountryWolf07]

My parents had to take Rosie to the vet; because she was in so much pain.. and they found out that she has chronic back problems.. I just feel bad for the poor girl who has to suffer that for the rest of her life. Although I did not know that beagles do suffer from back problems.. which was new to me. She used to be so active and now she's just all quiet and always sleeping. She will be 5 years old next month. (Let's not forget Anna, she will be 9.)

Here's a picture of Rosie:

Aw, poor Rosie. Can't they give her some sort of medicine that will help with the pain? Or would hydrotherapy help?

Poor little Rosie. I was wondering about medicine too. Can't the vet give her something? Can't anything be done? She is very young and has a long life ahead of her, can't they let her live it with out pain?

Poor Rosie!!! Hopefully they can find some supplements or meds that will give her some reflief.

I was not aware of the chronic back problems Beagles often have until recently. My BILs Meagle mix rupture 2 discs in his back and had to have surgery. It has been about 6 weeks since his surgery and he is doing ery well, but a young pup of 4 has to unlearn some of his favorite things...jumping up to greet family, sleeping onthe bed or furniture, tough play...

Oh the poor little baby!
I hope there is a way to help ease her pain.

She looks like she is in so much pain. I hope there is something that the vet can do to ease her pain.
