 Hey friends! This week on the pod, we’re tackling Intervertebral Disc Disease (IVDD)—a condition that can have a big impact on our pets’ mobility and quality of life. We’ll break down what IVDD is, the two main types, and the symptoms every pet owner should watch for. From there, we dive into the diagnostic side—like when MRIs or CTs are needed—and why strict rest can sometimes be just as important as surgery. Needless to say... there's a lot to unpack in this episode.
