bullet1747 Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 Well today I made my mind up to retire my bitch , she has been suffering over the last few months with arthritis , came back from the fields Sunday and she was limping bless so she is finally a pet dog for the house , only snag is if I buy another and take it out she will go mad as soon as she hears the gun cabinet open she sits near the door waiting , gutted for her she is only six Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GADWALL41 Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 I am sorry to read that , 6 is young for a Springer to fall to Arthritis , but it does happen . My guy is 9 and earlier this year I had to bring him to the Vet with the Big A. He took xrays and then gave him injections into the joints , 2 front legs and a course of tablets . I fear he might be facing his last season this year to and I take care not to run him too hard . I know he will not be a Happy dog without his hunting days. Clint..
