I was walking on the Santa Monica pier and saw a lady with a cav and ofcourse wanted to say hi. her baby was 5 and deaf she told me. Somehow the conversation led to PSOM and SM> she said she had seen a "specialist" in California who said that she didn't think he had either. As we were speaking the dog was doing air guitar and scratching his ears while crying out little yelps. She knew they were symptoms but said he "usually doesn't do that" or just started doing it this week and doesnt do it all he time.. etc.. She also said his skin is sensitive and dry hence the scratching etc.. Also "SM didnt run in the family" according to her breeder. After I asked her of that breeder MRI'd the answer was ofcourse "NO".
I told her she should ask that "specialist" about putting her dog on a fluid reducer at least. Lord only knows how many cavaliers out their affected with SM have owners who react this way...
