Brian, I had to put two down because of this. They wanted to put them on steroids also, but booth of them had crushed theirs. Hope winnie does good.

Posted by b.meade on 02-18-2011 03:50 PM:

Put her on steroids wed. She hasent started to act any different yet hopfully she pulls through she has become one hell of a dog plus she is the best I got at this time.

my vet kept her for a week so he could inject high doses of muscle relaxers and steroids in her round the clock, i dont think pills will do it brian

My Ol Chance Dog blew a disc in his back During the ice Storm
he was totally Down to the point of dragging his back leg
The options were 2000.00 for surgery with a 50/50 chance or 6 weeks complete bed rest with dex (steriods)
I packed him back and forth to the bathroom twice a day for 6 weeks seemed to come out of it fine then 3 mo later he jumped off the bed and rehurt himself 4 more weeks bed/crate rest.
He was outside chasing a squirrel just a few min ago LOL
We let him out in the running pen for 1/2 hour to and hour a couple times a week he is 10 now slowed him Down For sure but he will stay around for a few more years hopefully.

Hey Brian, Don't give up on Winnie. Take her to the vet if you need to. She's apart of your family and she is counting on you. I know you well do the right thing. I have such a big hart for pets some times I go out of my way to do for them. That just me. Let us know how she is coming along.

the back is a real problem in beagles ---DON'T LET THEM JUMP OF THE TAIL GATE OF THE TRUCK --I know of several dogs that have a damage dis in their backs --there are so many way that they can damage their spine
