Currently, Chewy has lost 75% of his fur and has a very enlarged
Spleen. The Veterinarian has stated that due to Chewy's age, he
is not a
surgical candidate.


My opinion is that if he is otherwise healthy, surgery is still the
way to go. There is lots and lots of information available in the
list archives, just search for adrenal disease, hair loss, lupron.
