what does ivdd mean
So you found out your dog has Intervertebral Disc Disease (IVDD). At a minimum, you and your dog endured 6 weeks of crate rest. There were sad eyes, guilt, whining, patience, and frustration involved. Some of your dogs needed surgery too. Your dog may or may not have recovered to normal, or almost, normal again. You don't think your emotions, and your pocketbook, can't go through IVDD treatment a second time.
