Wiener Dog Wednesday, IVDD Awareness Month

Today concludes the inaugural IVDD Awareness Month and our friends at Dodger’s List (the leading authority in the care and treatment of IVDD) want to thank everyone for their support these last 31 days. Working together we're saving lives. The folks at Dodger’s List not only want you to read their material, but to then pass it along to a friend so they know the facts. The point: via our grass-root efforts we want to educate our fellow doxie friends (and any dog and their humans effected by this debilitating disease). They especially want us to hand out brochures to local vets since many continue to unnecessarily put dogs to sleep with IVDD, and it doesn’t have to be that way. You can always order yours by clicking here. Remember knowledge is power and when we know better, we do better.
