My dog is currently hospitalized for 2 days. We will get the results for her Addison’s test in 2 days. This video helps a lot. Described my dogs symptoms.

My dog is a cocker spaniel so he's adorable and playful but one day he started to not eat, never move just lay in his dog bed, and when we take him out of the bath tub he usually would run downstairs and rub all over the carpet but he didn't even shake any water off and we had to dry him off for him. When we took him to the vet they had a prediction that he has addison disease and then the results came apparently he would've died that afternoon if we didn't take him in but my family can't take care of him we love him so much but the price, the responsibility of a dogs life in our hands, we might even forget to give him his pills. So we let him live with a vet there who has seven cocker spaniels with addison disease. We get to see pictures and videos of him every few days but we're all still sad because dasher was a big member of the family and it hurts to lose him. I just think he was too perfect for this world we live in.

Can you point to the "next video" referenced in this one? You mentioned an ultra low dose medication and I'm wondering if that us prednisone or zycortal. Thank you!

Hey, I was wondering if you could help me with my issue. My dog has addisons disease and we come every 30days to the vet with zycortal? But when I ask about treatment I get short answer(, ur dog is going to the vet for the rest of his life) but she didn't explain does he need to take zycortal every 30days for the rest of his life or 6 months after establishing his dose idk how to explain it but I hope you can help me out. Thanks
