Hi Everyone,
Duke is a red 7 year old mail. Unfortunately last month we discovered that he is Hypothyroid and has been on meds ever since. Around the same time he started dragging or "knuckling" his front right paw. Based on my research this can be a symptom of Hypothyroidism, Wobblers Syndrome or Degenerative Myelopathy. The info that I gathered said that with both Wobblers Syndrome and Degenerative Myelopathy the dogs drag their hind legs. Has anyone have experience with this?
