ProLo Therapy and Wobblers

We're interrupting the series on feline constipation to address a quesiton a reader sent regarding ProLo therapy:

Hi Robbie,
Thanks for being interested in alternative therapies for dogs with wobblers. Unfortunately, the term "wobblers" includes many problems that cause nerve damage and limb instability, so it's case by case with treatments.

No conventional surgeons, who are the vets that typically repair wobblers, that I've spoken with are familiar with ProLo therapy.

I suggest you contact a veterinarian who teaches ProLo, has had it, and happens to be the head of the AHVMA:
Carvel G. Tiekert, DVM, Executive Director
2218 Old Emmorton Road ~ Bel Air, MD 21015
e-mail: office@ahvma.org

Best of luck with your dog.
Susan Pollen, DVM
