WE just went to see Doc Mike last week ...

Doc called this afternoon (January) -
Lab says she has Hypo-Thyroidism
Her new Thyroid PILLS will be in tomorrow.
Hopefully, when her Thyroid level comes up, the fur will improve.

Feel Better, Roxey!
Uppie-Date on Cinder:

After 3 months of twice daily 0.4 mg "Soloxine" Thyroid replacement ...
I have a NEW Puppy-Dawg!!

Cinder jumps & romps like a FIVE-year old and her fur coat has *fluffed* up
and looks & feels like Puppy Fur! The Tail is still a little "worn" in one spot;
but the majority of the tail is *fluffy* again. And a two-year old Hot Spot
that she'd licked into an ugly bald spot on her forearm has now re-furred
itself and is completely covered in soft fur.

For Cinder - the Thyroid was the missing link!!
