I have a friend who is raising a dog for a service dog organization. At
about 7 months, he developed Pano which will cause limping and last up to
3 weeks. It also seems to travel from leg to leg. The organization
suggested ascripton but now he can't tolerate it after 3 days...starts
vomiting. He has been on one of the large breed growth feeds , at the
organizations insistence. When he gets one of these bouts he seems to get
whiney and depressed. Is there any kind of help you could recommend for
him. He is now almost a year old and will be going back for formal
training in a few months.<br>
