About Me:
I am a 'first time' dog owner and live in Missouri close to Columbia for the last 12 years. Originally I am from Germany - Gutersloh, but we have settled down here now, after my husband came back from Iraq and retired. I have one 10 year old son who loves the animals with me. :-) I think that when people talk to each other, there is always a thing or 2 to learn.
Welsh Corgi Breeder?

About My Corgi(s):
I have a female welsh corgi 'sassy' and my male welsh corgi 'nitro'. and my son and I love animals. We have 2 horses Arabs, 1 mini horse, 2 cats and 2 Pembroke Welsh Corgis. Now my 'Sassy' woke up yesterday and was dragging her hind legs liveless behind her. I could not stop crying, she did not understand what was going on. I took her to the vet right away. They x'rayed her spine and hips, poked her with a needle, ruled out the tick disease and told me she has a slipped disc, which is known for corgis. I thought my life stopped. She was put on Anti inflammatories. That is it I thought, she has to stay confined for 6 weeks, no moving around at all, may be it is going to heal itself. My darling friend, she is a vet Nicole called me back and said, she needs more aggressive treatment. So I put 'sassy' back in the car ( I was crying heart broken) and drove to Nicole's vet clinic. She gave her steroids, special food, a pill (antacid) prednesone and another one. I will add the names later, when I get back online. I would so appreciate any input, if there is a chance for her to get her feelings back in her liveless backend. Help!!! Will she walk again? Are there any people with corgis who healed and walked again??
I have:
Pembroke

Wow...I would like to know about that cart too! If you ever come across it let me know...definately something worth saving cuz you never know. We had snow here last night so my dogs are running like crazy loving every minute of it! Progress is good and I have no doubt that it will take time!

Take care and that's good you let Sassy know you care too...that's sometime the most important part of healing!

It sounds promising! I'll keep you and Sassy in my thoughts and prayers! It took me a long time to do things on this site and not goof up and I still have some problems! So know that you're not the only one! Have a great day!

Marika,

Hope you're doing ok...I don't know if there's anything that corgi aid could do to help you or not BUT I would check if I were you!

Good Luck! Our thoughts are with you!

Welcome to the group. It is so sad about Sassy, and I pray she will get better with her treatment. An Orthopedic specialist may be a good idea. Both Sassy and Nitro must be confused by all that is happening. Good Luck to all of you.
