We adopted a Shepherd mix from a rescue when he was almost 4 months old. He'll be 1 year old next month.
$800 + later he's been diagnosed with dysplasia in all 4 limbs. Hip dysplasia in back, and elbow in front. We were told he needed a CT scan with arthroscopy, $3416. - $5416, just to diagnose what kind of elbow dysplasia (I guess there are 3 different kinds). This wouldn't fix his elbows, just figure out what kind, the surgery cost would depend on what was found and of course, cost more. If and when he needed hip replacement, it would cost anywhere from $12,000 - $20,000 per hip.
He's our son, we adopted him, we're keeping him. And even though he is SO worth it, we simply don't have that kind of money to spare. And we were told, even if we did, there's no guarantee it would fix him.
I started to research what I could do to make him as comfortable as possible. We live in a 2 story home, with the bedrooms upstairs. And he started to look at those stairs with dread every night, then limp up. I found Edens Herbals and the CBD treats mentioned in a post and started to research.
To make a long story just a little shorter, we decided to give them a try. We could see the difference almost immediately. Oh don't get me wrong, you can definitely see there's something wrong with him still, but he's all but running up the stairs at night. He's playing with his brothers, and chasing the neighbor dog along the fence line. He's no where near as fast as our Lab or Chihuahua rescues, but he's acting like the puppy he is for the first time since he started showing signs of dysplasia.
Thank you Edens Herbals for giving our fur baby his puppyhood back.
