Thought you might be interested to know this

The Vet phoned today to advise us that there was a new drug out to support dogs with renal disease. Apparently there are 4 stages of renal disease, Katie is on the cusp of stage 3

So, we are going to trial this new drug & *see how it goes, if it can give her better quality of life & extend her life, it will be well worth it - so fingers crossed.

Shes a brave wee soul & never complains even though there are times she must feel pretty rotten.

Please keep her in your thoughts.
