When our girl started her hormones, we had to experiment a little to get it right--at first we were giving her too much. When we reduced the dosage, her beautiful coat grew back and she had all her energy. Poor little guy!

I worry about him so much. My vet was very smart in spotting what was wrong with him. He is doing pretty good. His eats well and plays but in the evening he shakes when he is sleeping. Not like he is dreaming, this is different. He takes three floicef in the morning and three in the evening. He weights 55 lbs. He also takes from one to five predisone each day, depending on the stress level. I pray he will be ok. I have another Basset that is his companion. They are so cute together. This is a hard thing to have happen to such a sweet living thing. I have a male basset hound age 2 with Addisons. I worry about him so much. My vet was very smart in spotting what was wrong with him.
