Author Description

Some of our most popular dog breeds are very commonly affected by IVDD, including the dachshund and French bulldog. The disease takes many owners by surprise, with their dog running around happily in the morning and then being found collapsed later the same day. Dogs with severe IVDD are unable to walk and have no control of their bladder or bowels. Recovery nearly always involves weeks to months of specialized care at home. For safety and for best results, it's essential to get the details of home care right.
