an accurate reading in the full panel that they send off to the lab, it's expensive but worth it. Some of his symptoms sounds just like Angel. Chronic ear problems, shedding, lazy, etc. They did just take her off of them for a short time to see if she really needed them and we put her back on them the other day, her labs came back low after sending off the test.

They both take two pills a day one on the am and one in the pm. My Dallas's symptoms were dull coat, slick feel on his underbelly, always cold to the touch. Big weight gain for him. Since the meds his coat is great, no longer cold, has alot of energy and has lost all the weight. He is on .8 mcg of LThyoxine. Angel is on . and she did have the same symptoms as Dallas, just sleeping alot and appetite changes.

her symptoms were a greasy feeling coat, overweight, not much energy. The blood test will tell where the TSH is. If it's anywhere near borderline, see if they will put her on a low dose anyway, it will probably help.

my Rocky was and still is lazy and sheds something awefull, I was told to have his thyroid checked which I did and it came back normal, but I noticed when my boy si feeling off he sheds more, so I know when his ears are bothering him or his belly is itchy, good luck

I have a lab that is on thyroid RX, her main symptom was the gaging and coughing, she is not lazy and has a wonderful coat, no other symptoms. Vet blood draw will tell where your dog is. I maintain her with one pill per day. She will be 12 in May.
