Sorry Jon, I just saw your post. They did x-rays to rule out a spinal problem. It is definitely neurological, and the next step would be an MRI, which would do nothing more than confirm something like Wobblers disease, which may or may not be operable. If I had that kind of money, I'd do it.

Those labs are something. Meg is 14 years old, had two knee surgeries and is still in the best shape, although she is deaf as a stone now.

At least losing older pets, you know they've had a good life, as hard as it is to let them go.

Thanks again everyone for your kind words. It's funny how much less work two dogs are than three - or I'd probably already have another one.
