Our dog was just diagnosed with this. We have spent a lot of money to find out what she has. She has now been referred to our University to see if they can do surgery on her. The emergency place didnt want to try. The University is doing a study on this but right now has run out of funding which means we will have to pay for her care. I dont mind that at all--BUT I do mind that they want to do even more testing on her before they do surgery.

Does anyone have any other up to date information on this or tips? We believe its idiopathic...the emergency clinic we went to said there are no sigsn of cancer, no signs of heart disease. The University wants to do more heart work and more tests to ensure cancer isnt the cause. After all the money we have spent so far and testing--I dont want to do anymore on those.
