Hi Ryan, I watched a really good TV series last week called “Bionic Vet UK” it was about a poor large breed dog over age 7 yrs old, over a 2 week period she started limping in her back legs until she couldn’t walk anymore, she hurt her spine/disc, so her owner took her to see a special bionic vet called Dr Noel Fitzpatrick, he’s Irish & works in Surry the UK Small Animals Orthopaedics ..
Google Dr Noel Fitzpatrick, see if you can email him & ask him what you have posted here, not a real long email, short & to the point, he may email you back, he has a big heart for animals, he may give you some advice….
The dog on the Bionic vet show probably would have been put to sleep but now she walks, runs & plays like a puppy, Dr Noel has helped so many dogs that vets say, oh he’ll need to be put to sleep… there’s has to be an American Orthopaedic Animal Dr in America that will help your poor dog or can give some advice what to do that doesn’t need money..
