Granulomatous Meningoencephalomyeitis
(GME)
GME tends to affect small breed dogs in their prime. Very little is known about this disease except that it seems to be very similar or the same as another disease called inflammatory reticulosis. Signs come on quick, and vary from neck pain to seizures.
The disease can sometimes be controlled with steroids, but usually the prognosis is terrible. Diagnosis is easy only if a spinal tap is done...not something done in the routine vet office.
Feeling generous?
I've written this web site partly to share my love of my profession with you ... but also in hopes of raising money for our no kill pet shelter.
Our shelter is an honest, transparent, and 100% volunteer organization that finds homes for 200-300 pets a year for the last 15 years or so.
With a little more funding we can continue to operate and expand.

Something of Interest:
Despite excluding prayer from public school, we still open sessions of Congress and the Senate with a Christian prayer. But it seems the prayer is expected to be polically correct.
When Minister Joe Wright
was asked to open the new session of the KANSAS SENATE, everyone
was expecting the usual generalities, but this is what they heard:
"Heavenly Father, we come before you today to ask forgiveness and to seek your direction and guidance. We know Your Word says,
"Woe to those who call evil good", but that is exactly what we have done. We have lost our spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values. We confess that.
We have ridiculed the absolute truth of Your Word and called it pluralism
We have exploited the poor and called it the lottery,
we have rewarded laziness and called it welfare,
we have killed our unborn and called it choice,
we have shot abortionists and called it justifiable,
we have neglected to discipline our children and called it building self-esteem,
we have abused power and called it politics,
we have coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it ambition,
we have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it freedom of speech,
we have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and called it enlightenment.
Search us Oh, God, and know our hearts today; cleanse us from every
sin and set us free.
Guide and bless these men and women who have been sent to direct us to the center of Your will and to openly ask these things in the name of Your Son, the living Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen!!"
The response was immediate. A number of legislators walked out during the prayer in protest.
But in 6 short weeks, Central Christian Church, where Rev. Wright is pastor, they logged more than 5,000 phone calls with only 47 of
those calls responding negatively.
The church is now receiving international requests for copies of this prayer from India, Africa, and Korea.
Commentator Paul Harvey aired this prayer on his radio program, "The Rest of the Story ", and received a larger response to this program than any other he has ever aired.
With the Lord's help, may this prayer sweep over our nation and wholeheartedly become our desire so that we again can be called, "..one nation under God. "
