bacon slipped some disks :(

This is one of my worst fears for a dog, I've seen it happen so much - especially in younger dogs.

I am so sorry Bacon has to deal with this. I hope Bacon continues to progress. When it comes to deciding what to do next, only you know your dog and the right decision. Much luck and gentle hugs to bacon!

I'm sorry to read about Bacon.

My niece's beagle, Gizmo, had a similar situation. Actually, it sounds exactly like Bacon's. The steroids and shots helped for a while, but the problem was still there. He looked like a sad, desperate little boy in agony.

Gizmo is about 8, btw, and underwent surgery about 6 months ago. The difference in him is amazing. Being a human who's had 2 spine surgeries, I could really relate to Gizmo. He's so happy and healthy.

Yes, it was expensive, but their surgeon told them about a payment plan for animals. I know these times are hard for everyone, (she has 2 kids and is fostering 2) but she and her hubby deecided that Gizzy is part of the family, still young and playful and needed help. To see him in agony was awful.

I hope your Bacon recovers.

Loads of good thoughts and prayers for sweet Bacon. So terribly sorry to hear this news. I hope she recovers easily and quickly and that both of you do not have to go through a lot. Many lovely and good prayers for dear Bacon.

I hope good news comes next.
