Finally! The vet sent Katy’s blood up to the lab at Michigan State for a comprehensive thyroid level test. She’s definitely hypothyroid and we started her on levothyroxine yesterday. I’ve got my fingers crossed that in a few weeks, I’ll have my “agility Katy” back. She loves the sport but has been so dog reactive and physically lethargic, practicing agility just hasn’t been much fun. I’m looking forward to the possibility to doing some good work with her outside this summer.

Good deal on the diagnosis! Hope it brings Katy back into shape!

I work for a Endocrinology group and 3 of the girls in the office have dogs with different Endocrine problems..1 hypothyroid, and 2 with cushings we think it’s funny that we would be diagnosing our pets with what we work with everyday. Yea Katy!
