The title of toadies post states brain-injued dogs can get HBOT, This

morning at 0715 I received an urgent call to allow a dog, injured by Carbon

Monoxide

to use our Secrist Chamber. This was a call from 2 staff members of the

largest Veterinarian Surgical Hospital in Virginia. I was hoping your post

would tell me where I can recommend, what HBOT Hospital I can recommend to

Veterinarians with animals needing HBOT. Do you have such a list? Manson

Where can pet owners take their pets?

I have successfully treated a brain injured Standard Poodle with

hyperbarics. He is a show dog that was pulled from the show circuit

because he was getting progressively worse. After 30 treatments he's

back showing again and on his way to his Championship.

Here is the contact info for a Vet on the east coast that has a

chamber in his clinic.

We put our old dog in our chamber.

We just wanted to keep her for one more summer. It worked but she had

cancer in her leg. X-rays showed she had no bone left. So we let her go.

However, her vet couldn't believe she made it that long.

I also pulled the end of the tail off my daughter's gerbil. It was fine

until I washed it off causing it to bleed. The gerbil was so bad it

couldn't get it's head off the floor. It started running in circles

dragging it's head. I rushed it to the chamber and brought it and myself

down to 16 feet. I put it in a hood, held the neck hole closed and treated

it for 20 minutes. Within 1 minute it was holding it's head up. It is

doing fine today.

Just imagine if we treated people immediately after injuries.

Love to all,

Rose
