good morning!

My doggie is having hip problems & our local vet put him on pain meds but now he is stumbling and can hardly use the steps on the deck to get into the yard so we take him out the front as those steps are carpeted

Have a appointment for the Orthopedic department at CSU in Fort Collins (#2 veterinary teaching hospital in the county) for next month & it’s a 2-3 hour assessment and if images are needed it can take 5-7 hours. They have all kinds of state of the art Ultrasound, CT, MRI and more. They have a big Matt with sensors so the can evaluate how he walks along with how much pressure each paw apply to the ground

The initial assessment is done by board certified specialists and students as is all treatments, images

No idea how much it will cost….but it will be worth it figuring out what’s wrong and if it can be treated or he needs to be made comfortable and placed in hospice

Prayers inbound for your best friend!

Terry
