He spent his entire life on the side of the road… unnoticed, unclaimed, and unloved. While the world kept moving, he simply waited — for a family, for a touch of kindness, for someone who would call him their own. But no one ever came. His days turned into years, and his silent hope slowly faded into the dust of the streets he called home. Yet even in all this loneliness, his heart never turned cold. Some lives deserve more… and some stories break you without making a sound. 💔🐾

I am beyond frustrated with the inappropriate and excessive use of this drug for dogs in my profession. No, it's not Librela, or Apoquel. Not metronidazole or other antibiotics. Not NSAIDS or prednisone.

I'm talking about gabapentin.

Gabapentin, commonly known as gaba, is labelled for treatment of seizures and for neuropathic pain. It's thought to help with anxiety, but there is no proof that it does. It provides sedation, which many owners mistake for anxiety relief. Yet it is being used for everything from post-operative pain to soft tissue injury, often without the addition of true pain medications. Yes, I support thoughtful use of NSAIDs as well as other pain management strategies such as herbs, PEMF, laser, acupuncture, etc. An individualized, multimodal approach. What I cannot support is giving an ineffective, unproven drug and thinking you're managing your dog's pain.
