My bull x bitch not even 2 years old has had an ongoing problem for some time now with her back. Took her back to the vet today and hes confirmed she will 100% not work again. Iv tried allsorts so he just says see how she goes on anti inflamitry and pain killers to see if we can give her a comfortable pet life if not i should consider her being pts. Proper gutted she was far more capable than my other dog who is also injured due to me treading on his toe a few week back when lamping. Think iv managed to get out on the lamp 4 times so far this season. Id love to know what the peoples dogs are made of which you hear are out day and night day after day with a single dog.

It's called a good deal of luck fella ... My dogs are out every day but an accident could happen anytime ... My young bitch took a hell of a tumble this morning after a gruelling run but she came up with her quarry and is ok ... Sat having a cup of tea and drying off a bit and we will be back it and there are bound to be more spills with this sodden ground but fingers crossed all will be ok .......

Definatly a good deal of luck was up Scotland last week ferreting every day and lamping every night my bitch has never been pushed so hard she had to have a few rest days / and a night off she came home with a few cuts here and there but was few heart in mouth moments !!

Yes by my vet. Iv tried on numerous occasions to see a greyhound vet but no look in my area. My vet has a lot of experience though with greyhounds and lurchers anyway.

If you think the dog is worth it, then you'd travel any distance. get a good bone man to have a feel of your dog. they can't work miracles, but not far off

Its 100% her lower back. You can prod poke and do anything like that to her and she has no pain. However she cant extend her legs out behind herself so she cant jump into the car boot or onto the sofa or anything like that or stretch herself out. She seems happy she can walk she would definatly run even still. Its hard to describe her problem.but its definatly her lower back.

[Poacherspocket 189]

My vets good and i trust him. Untill last night her back wasnt too bad. My girlfriend picked her up and hurt her somehow thats why iv gone back to the vet i thought she was on the mend untill then.
