We are asking everyone to please send up prayers, good thoughts, and love for Jade. Her Wobbler's is worsening. She is going in to see Dr. Karen this week to see if we can get steroids or something to help ease her discomfort. Despite her body failing her, she is the same sweet and loving girl she has always been. Yesterday she kept giving me her famous "hugs". She's such a good girl. Please pray for her and pray for Arda, who is watching her good girl fight. We will keep everyone updated on her progress.

Good thoughts and healing energy sent to Sweet Jade.
In Memory of Mariah He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion.  ~Unknown~

Oh, no, what sad news. I hope and pray that she will be granted a little more time here on earth, as long as her pain and discomfort can be controlled. She's one of the dogs I have sponsored. There was something about her that just spoke to me. Please be strong, Jade. And thank you to Arda and everyone who is helping look after her.

OK.........FYI........Jade was evaluated today and yes she has Wobblers. JackAE and I have been watching her for about a year make ever so small changes in the way she turns corners and walks. Then she started hanging back from the rest of her pack so they wouldn't knock her over. So today she saw the pro. She is getting metacam 2X daily for pain and methocarbamol robaxin 500 mg (muscle relaxer) 2 X daily for a week to see how it affects her condition. If no improvement in a week we will add tramadyl. We still have a few other options to make her comfortable.
Needless to say we will keep everyone in tune to the program and fill in when we can with photos. She's a tuff olde girl and we'll give this a run for it's money.
PRAYERS! Just thought maybe all of you out there might want to see what goes on behind the seen here.

I also checked out an acupuncturist at the pet fest. I just don't think I like the results I have heard with people that have tried surgery. She isn't the easiest dog to handle. If she likes you, it's fine. But Lord have Mercy if she doesn't like you. That's why she lives here. I know she's not going to hurt anyone. I hate Wobblers. It just takes my heart away.

So sorry, I don't know what else to say. So much pain from loving so hard. Prayers of course. She was lucky to wind up with you. Linda

Ya know Arda I looked into this for my sweet Schaudeh and I decided against it. In
the first part she was soooooooo sensitive, in the second part I was just not so sure it would
help and most of all I wanted her days left to be stress free and comfortable, that is all
we can do. I had way too many mixed feelings, she was way to sensitive for a trial run

:( Harley is on steroids and it has helped tremendously with his issues, but they made him VERY anxious and hyper, so now he's on Prozac. :(

I haven't dropped off the edge of the earth. Kinda got my hands busy but I wanted all of you to know that Jade is doing too well. Turned into a guard dog at the front door, raising the roof on this place when the B team is out. Won't let me out of her site. If and when she gets worse we have the predisone ready. But right now you would not know she was in very bad shape. It is helping her.

Picture of Jade from a couple weekends ago. I couldn't believe how much better she was feeling! Her back end was still sliding all over, but she was so much happier than the week before when I saw her.
