Just catching up on this Kaz, what a relief for you all. Fingers crossed for today and that they can get to the bottom of things asap.
Gentle fusses to your beautiful boy x

So it's definitely Cushings. It's never wonderful to get an illness, but at least this is treatable. As the vet said, it's good news really....

Thanks Ally, he starts on tablets today which should sort him. We have to keep an eye out for side-effects as if the dosage isn't exact it can bring on Addison's disease :? Thankfully that's rare, all should be well now :)

That’s good news Kaz, hopefully he’ll soon be feeling much better once the meds start to do their job.

Our neighbour’s old boxer has Cushings, has done for around 4 years now and is still doing really well!
