It’s been a bit since I’ve posted.
He’s still off of pain meds.
Sometimes he still seems a bit slow on the rear legs, but for the most part he’s lively and full of dirt.
We go to acupuncture on 12/6 finally as I had to cancel the last appointments due to work.
For now he is medication free from IBD or AC. I am very grateful.
He’s not 100% but before surgery I would say he was 75%. He’s now 99%. I’ll take that.
Currently, he’s out like a light on our bed!

Thanks Rod. It will be interesting to see what affect the accupuncture has on him. The one after affect of all of the meds is that he has developed dermetitis. It’s not awful and it’s not causing him to scratch like mad but he look like he needs Head and Shoulders being a black Standard Poodle!

Our dogs have had acupuncture for various problems(SM not included). Usually, we do not see immediate results, and weekly sessions for six weeks or so often are recommended. The needles rarely have bothered any of our dogs, even the one with the lowest threshold of pain.
