During last night's webinar I talked about Buxton's panting and there were several suggestions. Thank you @Dr. Christina for offering to post them here.
Buxton is an 8 yo Bernese Mountain Dog. He has been holistically raised since he was born and I have had appointments with @Dr. Jeff too. Buxton's local vet (new to us) diagnosed significant arthritis in 3 legs. He enjoys his walks but the past several weeks he has slowed down after about 30 minutes and pants a lot even now that the weather is cooler. He has been on Trixsyn and rotating joint supplements for several years. I recently added CBD and Myos and increased the omegas. I also started having him lay on my PEMF mat. @Dr. Sara mentioned laryngeal paralysis as a possible cause for his panting.
He sniffs a lot on his walks and as an intact male he marks and often kicks vigorously after marking. I wonder if that is making his arthritis worse.
I will observe his panting closely even when not on walks and start journaling. Would CBD and increased omegas help at all if it is early stages of laryngeal paralysis?
I will make an appointment with Dr. Jeff after he has been on the CBD, Myos and increased omegas longer.
Thank you to all for your comments.
