Question

My Schnauzer


Sent to Pet Experts October 23, 2005 8:23 p.m.

I have a 14 yea old male Schnauzer that's been in fairly good health through the years, after coming home from work I noticed he was off balance and sort of listless, acting strange and failed to give his normal greeting, his back legs would sort of collapsed as if he had no strength, he tried to respond to me lifting his head up moving it around as if he was in a daze and then drop down into a resting position, I carry him to his food and water and he will eat and drink. During the past several years he lost much of his playful agility, my vet attributed that to his age and I was advised to enjoy him while I can. Can you provide me with your input any information as to what might be happening.

                      Thank you

                      Karen

Has your vet run any tests on him?

It's my opinion that your offer is a typical come on scam, if you would have asked for my credit card information prior to me filling out my life history I might have thought different. It's a shame that thousands of pet owners get ripped off by vets every day, we are at their mercy, dogs can't talk and most of you Vets will take advantage, I know many pet owners that feel the same and I will advise them of my experience with your web site.

We try to communicate the fact that there is a cost for Specialists to help you as clearly as possible. On our home page, we show several examples of recent questions that have been paid for, including how much the Customer paid... If you click just about anywhere around our site, you will see many questions and the value is clearly posted. We also describe the process in detail in our FAQ. As a side note, we are also considering adding some sort of a "demo" to try to clarify the process as well.
