Support and information for families of dogs with Degenerative Myelopathy

Degenerative Myelopathy is a disease that causes a progressive paralysis in the hind limbs, usually in German Shepherd dogs, but other breeds can be affected as well. There is not a cure, but there has been some success with using nutritional therapy, pioneered by Dr R.M. Clemmons at the University of Florida, in slowing the progression of the disease. Exercise and acupuncture are helpful as well.
