Hey y’all! I know it’s been a litttttle while since i’ve been on here but ya know life happens. We are BACK and ready to continue our mission of promoting and educating on . We will strive to help those who need it and have a fun time doing it! Life throws challenges at us every single day but remember those challenges will never define you; they will only better you - just as Skipper showed us.

We are kicking things off by donating 2 signed copies of “The Life of a We**ie Wonder” to the new Panther Valley Elementary School Book Buggy! 🐶📖➡️🚌 Be sure to keep an eye out for them as they make their way through parts of Schuylkill and Carbon Counties every Wednesday (Coaldale, Lansford, Summit Hill, Nesquehoning). For more updates and info, check out their page.

Informative IVDD Infographic from Dodgerslist- Disc Disease - IVDD Education & Support featuring Southeast Veterinary Neurology. Check them out for more info and educational resources on IVDD

Tell us how you learned about IVDD. Know your CTL's. C's are for the neck (cervical), T's for Thoracic (the chest, where the ribs are), and L's for Lumbar (after the ribs and before the hips).
The vertebrae bones are numbered not the discs in-between (intervertebral) vertebrae.
C3-C4 for example means the herniation is between Cervical Vertebra 3 and Cervical vertebra 4.
