Saving Shiloh

Sleepy heads 😴

Sorry for the lack of updates lately! Not sure if it’s just the winter or being busy trying to figure out how to help this poor guy, but I wanted to check in.

We’ve been having a lot of issues with Shiloh’s right elbow. He was doing well for about two months, and we were able to go on short walks again, but recently, his pain has increased significantly. He’s on a glucosamine supplement with MSM, but I’m looking into other ways to help him.

I’ve been considering getting him an elbow brace, but I wanted to ask—have any of you had experience with elbow dysplasia in dogs? I know it usually affects dogs later in life, but my poor Shiloh is only three, so I’m exploring all the options that might make his life a little easier and allow us to get around the block once or twice.

If you’ve used a custom dog elbow brace or found something else that helped, I’d love to hear about it!

This guy really overdid it last night celebrating the new year. He’s sleeping it off 😴
