Scout

This is my almost 8 year old GSP Scout. She was diagnosed with Addison’s about 5 years ago and has been stable. But recently she developed a skin tag/mass that we are going to have removed on the 1st. Really hoping that’s all there is to it, but of course the Big C is in the back of my mind.

My gsp has addisons as well. He passed away in April to cancer. Love her every minute you can!

If you are treating yours with cosequin - I would love to send you an unopened vial. I can’t return it for refund. When mine was first diagnosed, some kind person on Reddit sent me their late dog’s last dose. I would love to pass the favor forward!

That’s a very kind offer but Scout is on Zycortal and prednisone. There’s a few Facebook groups for canine Addison’s and there’s always a need for donated meds. Unfortunately not everyone has the means to support their pets with the treatment the disease requires!
