Old Miniature Dachshund With a Disintegrated Back Disc...

When asked to write about the effects of aging and the danger of some of the most important folks in our lives, (our little dogs), I almost immediately got tears in my eyes.

My best little four legged friend is "Ms. Scarlet," our long haired, miniature dachshund. We've had her since she was a tiny little puppy. She loves to sit on my lap.

As many of you may know, this breed of dog is very prone to back issues because their little legs are just too short to support their long bodies. We, our family, have always watched that Ms. Scarlet didn’t jump off of furniture, or climb stairs, because of the inclination to have a back injury.

Ms. Scarlet is now 13 years old and last year, just overnight, Scarlet woke up one morning, and she couldn’t stand or walk, and if she tried, the pain would cause her to urinate on the spot. She couldn't even move her real legs, and curled them up under her. I immediately made her an appointment with her Vet and was told that she had a disintegrated disc, and that surgery would be the ONLY solution, and that at her age it would be a real risk.

Ed and I were faced with a decision that most pet owners are faced with at one time or another. It was at this point that Ed said, "Before we make any difficult decisions, let’s see if Xango will work for her."

It was at that point that I started giving Scarlet a dropper of Xango twice a day. It didn’t take but a month, and Scarlet was running around the house with the rest of the dogs and she still is. Our little girl, "Ms. Scarlet." is now almost blind and can’t hear very well, but she's as frisky as a puppy. She hops around in and out of the house, and scampers to the back door to run and play outside with our 2 other miniature dachshund puppies (1 year old). She is much slower than the puppies, but she is 13 years old, and still alive and well, and she's actually still hopping around. God has given us more years with Ms. Scarlett, that we didn't think we would have, and we are so grateful to God for that.

I know that God played a big part in this, because we pray for all our pets, along with all of our family and friends, but I also KNOW in my heart, that if we had not given Ms. Scarlet her Xango every day, she would not be here with us today. By the way, she sends her love and said to tell you that she is still taking her Xango faithfully.
