Our standard poodle Max had a serious ear infection that required the
removal of his ear canal.
The same infection was found in his other ear and we sought help from
this group.
Some members suggested that we seek the advice of a holistic vet.
This proved to be the answer as Max's other ear was saved and this
prevented him from being deaf at any early age.

This was many years ago and Max has since led a healthy long life.
We had to put Max down last night because he was in an enormous amount
of pain. The vet thinks he had a tumour near his spleen.
Max would have been 13 years old in June.

We would like to thank this group for its help in giving us many years
of love and companship with Max.
It is time for me to try to sleep and hopefully I will have pleasant
dreams of my favourite poodle. We miss him terribly.

Godspeed, Max.
