>After having my "parts puppy" on Cosequin DS for a few years, she went down one day and was put on Rimadyl for two weeks. The response was amazing -- in two days she was up and about. At the end of the 2 week course, I switched her back to the Cosequin, due to concerns about the emerging evidence of previously undocumented sideeffects, and continued on that until she went down again about 6 months later. One quarter of one 75 mg chewable had my voracious foodhound off her food for 3 days. Shortly thereafter, one of her nephews was put on Rimadyl post-ACL surgery with the same reaction. I recommend against Rimadyl with my line of pups for that reason.

>Not long after this all happened, I tried SynoviCre (DVM Labs) and would not use Cosequin DS again! =) With the Cosequin, if I missed so much as one pill, Chance would be showing signs of discomfort and some days it just wouldn't do the job. The SynoviCre, in my experience, has been amazing -- miss a dose (thanks to Razzy stealing the tub and sprinkling it throughout the yard!) and she can go a good week without. I have suggested it to several of my clients and they all have had good results as well. I have recently switched to their new Synovi G3 and am still happy with it. It comes in liver flavored granules which I sprinkle over the food.

>This is my first time doing this so I hope I do it right. I have my first
>berner pup named Bear who is almost 18 weeks old. I noticed on New Years Eve
>that he had a large fluid filled sack on his right elbow which the Vet said
>was a Hygroma(about the size of a medium sized apple). The Vet drained the
>hygroma and padded the area, and said to keep it padded for several days.
>Well the padding slipped, and he did not like one bit, so it stayed on for
>about 2 minutes after we got home. I then tried a clean washcloth inside of
>my sons velcro elbow pad. That stayed on a little longer, maybe half an
>hour. We went to the petstore and bought him an eggcrate for his crate and I
>have been trying to get him to lay on a blanket when in the kitchen. His
>favorite place to lay is on the cold garage floor which is cement,so I put
>some carpet out there and am trying to limit his time in the garage. I
>called the Vet today because the hygroma has filled up again and is a little
>bigger than before! the Vet said that when Bear goes in for neutering on
>Jan. 16th that they will lance and drain the hygroma and inject some
>cortisone in hopes that the area will scar and the hygroma not come back.
>Has anybody else had an experience like this? Any suggestions on helping my
>baby would be very much appreciated.

>You might want to check in with some of the goat societies as I bet a member or two have a cart laying around somewhere.
>Just search the web for Goat clubs/societies or type in Lamancha, Nubian etc. (breeds of goats) and see where that takes you.

>Good luck in your search and do offer to share pictures of your dog in harness with the sulky when your dog is old enough.
