The OP mistakenly didn't do your notification correctly, so I'm just trying to help her notify you!

@goldensrbest. I'm here. I assume you're referring to what my vet calls "old dog disease"? Neither I nor my doggy friends had ever heard of it, but the vet recognized it instantly. What did you want to know?

@Kachina624 This is the OP that @goldensrbest is referring to. I thought you might want to read what was going on and come back here to reply to her. https://community.qvc.com/t5/Pet-Lovers/Vestibular-syndrome/td-p/5911414
@goldensrbest I'm so sorry to hear that Spirit isn't doing better. At one point you thought he was improving, didn't you?

@goldensrbest. My dog, Bree, was a purebred female rough collie. She had this condition so bad, she could not stand and wouldn't eat or drink. I had to put her on an old blanket and drag her out to the car. I had a devil of a time getting her into the car. Vet immediately recognized what was wrong. Said the duration is usually 7-10 days. I would have had to leave her at the vet since I live alone and had no way of taking her outside. I have a chronic back problem.
Bree was 12 years old, about the max for a collie and had been experiencing symptoms of dementia. I had been prolonging the inevitable, so at this point, I elected to have her euthanized. Many dogs do recover from this condition and do fine, my vet said.

@goldensrbest. To get someone "notified", you have to put the tag in the body of the message, not the title. I always do both. so they'll see it in the title.
I certainly hope Spirit rallies this week-end and is better soon. Has this been going on since last week-end? Somehow, I missed your original post. Is he having the rolling eyeballs? If it has been a week, it should be running it's course.
