Bentley
Bentley is a 15 week old puppy who has exhibited some weakness in his hind legs. His family was worried that he might possibly need expensive medical treatments so they felt he had a better chance to get well with us.
We were worried at first that
this was true. But now we are questioning the affects of
his vaccinations and other drugs he had received as possible
causes for his leg muscle weakness. There was nothing
conclusive in vet medical exams, so we simply began by
giving him good nutrition and no more drugs to see if he
would respond. We have put him on a raw diet to give him
total nutrition for his body to take in, added glucosamine
and condroitin, supervised his play times and time out
times, walked him short distances to strengthen his legs,
and ........he is steadily improving. His x-rays showed no
obvious problems. Too many drugs and reactions to
vaccinations can cause many different symptoms, his
included. So he is getting drug free, is on a natural diet,
is growing like a weed, as Danes do, and seems to be getting
stronger. And 'normal'.....he chews everything in sight,
including shoes, checkbooks, feet, nightgowns! Of course,
puppies do this. :-)
He eats like a tiger, jumps
into your lap without regard for where or how he lands,
chases the other BIG dogs like he was a big dog himself, and
in general is taking the world by storm. His puppy eyes are
mesmerizing and charming. But his teeth are very sharp
little painful needles. We are recommending he not go to a
home with young kids especially for this last reason. He is
trying to learn not to put teeth on everything but he hasn't
mastered his schooling yet! He is dry in his crate, waits
to go potty outside, and sleeps all night through, when you
insist. :-) He will need someone who will keep his
training going 24/7 as he is a bold little guy who might
like to be in charge if he can get away with it. He is
otherwise healthy, according to his vet exams, but he will
need someone to help him build up his strength, which he is
doing now, and keep his nutrition of the highest quality to
promote a healthy immune system and overall total good
health. We are always available for advice and help and
opinions on all that. :-) He is a handsome little kid that
is going to stand out in a crowd when he gets bigger as is
obvious by his pictures. He does seem to be a good
candidate for obedience since he pays attention, and looks
you right in the eyes. He tries to learn and wants to
please, and is just ever so happy and waggy about anything
and everything. A wonderful little baby Dane.
