There is also a link between it and hypothryroidism, which Earle also has. Overweight dogs are more suspeptible too.
And sometimes it just happens for no apparent reason or trigger.

Oh Earle, such a sad face. But I'm happy to see you playing with your buddy! And for the fact that you are home recouperating.

Luv my kitties!
Earle, I am very glad to see you are up and about and getting better. Now, if you'd just eat a bit and get to feeling much better you'd stop giving me more grey hairs!!! I'm such a worrier when someone is sick.
