i cant be doing thinking about her end. it just makes mr tearful!(sorry
to be a crybaby!)2 days after i had my dog on METACAM she was able to
get up and walk about basicaly doing things that she couldnt do before.
METACAM can harm the liver in HIGH doses, she gets 25ml EVERYDAY! but
she is like a normal dog! she races about! infact on christmas day, we
enjoyed a cracker together! and she won! i put a party hat on her, we
had a wonderful time!
it is almost like she puts her H.D on!! she eats well and drinks well.
she goes to the loo perfectly! what more could i ask (apart from her not
even having H.D)
i got her from a breeder called DAVID HANCOCK does it ring any bells?
aparently she is about the 1st or 2nd dog/bitch (i mean a girl dog not
being rude) in his history! but i suppose its fate. if anyone else wound
up with her they probaly woould want her for rabbits so she couldnt do
that so she'd be out down! she still (although not meant to) catch
rabbits with miximotosis.
thanks everyone

That's exactly what my dog was on. No I'm sorry my dog was on 85 ml
every day because she weighed 90 lbs & that's what my vet prescribed.
What happens is that dog just like mine is going to keep licking her
legs & if that dog has white fur on her legs it's going to change color.
My dog fur changed sort of brownish. Eventually there's going to be a
change in that dog's bowel movement. It won't have any substance any
more. Metacam does seem like a miracle because of how happy the dog
feels but there will be a price to pay. Symflex or Synflex is quite
another story. That is safe for dogs.. How old is Sasha. Kathrn is 11
years old. Don't make any difference abot the age any way as far as what
Metacam will do to a dog as well for it
