Layla

[Lindsey]

Layla now hasn't progressed at all since Wednesday. The vet said she's still doing good though and she's very happy and "talkative" and everyone knows who she is and everyone stops to say hi when they walk by! That's my girl!

About the laser light therapy... she doesn't feel comfortable doing treatments on Layla because there haven't been enough studies on it. But she said the studies they have done on rats have looked very promising. She said we wouldn't hurt her feelings if we wanted to go for it and went to another vet for the treatments, just as long as we let her know so it's in Layla's file. I have read a lot of stories where laser has helped tremendously in dogs so I'm leaning towards it. I think if I don't try, I'll always wonder if it might have done something. Actually, the college doesn't even have the right kind of laser for this type of cell and nerve stimulation. But lucky for us, there are only TWO of those types of lasers in all of Canada, and one is in Saskatoon! Actually at the same clinic we took Layla for acupuncture while the college vet was gone. So it looks like I may be taking more trips back there again.
