Ok, so color us pink because who would have thunk it, that one little anti-inflammatory called Piroxicam would make her feel so great. We have begun to think that prehaps she should have been on this drug earlier, and no we don't think that drugs are always the answer but hell this one just might be a miracle drug. Not only does she bug (our term for when she rolls in the grasswith feet in air and giant smile on her face) every single day now, she ahs started doing a short version of her old Bella jigg (her legs don't always cooperate, she's just a little Bambi) she trots and wants to play all the time. It's like she's turned back the clock a couple of years. Hell, we're all doing the Bella jigg...hmmmm, except for OOna who calls hers the OOna wiggle (girls).

So here's what I got to say about Piroxicam, if you have an older larger dog (at least older than 9 or 10) ask your vet about Piroxicam. It's an anti-inflammatory that will not only help with their breathing, but it's side effects for k9s are that it helps with arthritis, improved bladder control and for our Bella shirking of her tumor. There can be some other not so good side effects and REMEMBER I'M NO VET, so talk it over with your vet first, but definitely ask about if your wonder pup isn't breathing like she use to. A lot of vet either may not have tought of it or may not even know about it, it is a human drug and Bella's vet that prescribed it is a super specialist vet just for older pups.

Just thought some other wonder pup might also benefit from the ever expanding knowledge of team Bella.

Have a great weekend!
